Job description

Are you the experienced charity leader that will take our operational delivery to the next level?

The Operations Manager is a new leadership position that will play a pivotal role in the delivery of FFLAG’s operations which span online, offline, and local group support for parents and carers of LGBT+ loved ones. We also want you to bring experience of fundraising to help ensure we stay financially secure for the long term.

About FFLAG

FFLAG is a national voluntary organisation and registered charity and is the UK’s longest established parent support charity in the LGBT+ sector. Our history began in the grassroots parent helplines of the 1960s, grew through the 1980’s and 90’s as we supported anxious parents and fought against the discrimination of Section 28, becoming a formally registered charity in 2000.

Our work sounds simple, but it is life changing. We help parents and families understand, accept and support their LGBT+ family members with love and pride.

We offer a range of support options spanning 121 online and helpline support services, to a UK-wide monthly group Zoom meeting and face to face local groups. We also have an extensive collection of online resources and guides.  We attend as many Pride events as we can and our work supports thousands of families every year. This support is provided by an active base of FFLAG volunteers who are parents of LGBT+ children themselves, supported by other volunteers and allies. 

In addition to our support work, FFLAG advocates for the full human and civil rights of LGBT+ individuals. FFLAG speaks out and acts to defend and enhance those human and civil rights. 

What this job is all about

Simply put, as Operations Manager you will ensure the charity's activities are effective, sustainable, and aligned with our mission to support families with LGBT+ members

Reporting directly to the Chair, working closely with the Board of Trustees and supported by a part-time Volunteer Engagement & Events Coordinator you will:

  • Lead and supervise the daily operational functions, ensuring smooth and compliant delivery of services.
  • Lead fundraising activities, including grant applications, donor stewardship, and partnership development.
  • Manage and support staff and volunteers, nurturing a positive, inclusive, and collaborative culture.
  • Support the Trustees to ensure compliance with all relevant UK charity legislation and regulatory requirements (e.g., Charity Commission, safeguarding, risk management, data protection).
  • Collaborate with the Chair and Board of Trustees to develop and implement strategic plans, with clear KPIs and measurable outcomes.

What else might you be involved in?

Because this is a new role we expect to learn together about what additional activities you can support us with beyond the key priorities mentioned above.  This could include helping us to: 

  • Monitor and report on operational performance, identifying opportunities for innovation and growth.
  • Oversee financial management including budgeting, forecasting, and reporting, ensuring resources are used efficiently and transparently.
  • Oversee communications and stakeholder engagement, including public relations, digital presence including website and social media, and community outreach.
  • Act as an ambassador for FFLAG at events, forums, and in collaborative partnerships.

What are the skills and attributes you will need to be successful?

As the most senior employed position in the charity, we need an experienced operational leader that can grow with us. You will be self-motivated and enjoy working independently without the need for close supervision.  

In terms of specific areas of skill or experience we are looking for people who can demonstrate previous experience of:

  • Operational Leadership: Demonstrable experience in a senior operations role, ideally within the charity or voluntary sector.
  • Fundraising: Experience supporting or leading fundraising campaigns and developing income streams.
  • Governance: Knowledge of UK charity governance and regulatory compliance.
  • People Management: Confident in leading, motivating, and developing a small team and volunteers.
  • Commitment to Inclusion: Passionate about equality, diversity, and supporting the LGBT+ community and their families.

As an experienced leader we would also expect you to have:

  • Financial Acumen: Proven ability to manage charity finances, budgets, and reporting processes.
  • Communication: Excellent written and verbal communication skills; able to represent the organisation externally.
  • Strategic Thinking: Able to translate vision into actionable plans and execute effectively.
  • Problem Solving: Resourceful, adaptable, and solution-oriented approach to challenges.
  • Digital Skills: Comfortable with digital tools and platforms, social media, and remote/hybrid work practices.

Why join us?

FFLAG is a mission driven charity that makes a real difference to the lives of parents and carers and their LGBT+ loved ones. Our work matters. And we know we can get even better in how we deliver. 

That’s where this role comes in. It’s an amazing opportunity to grow as a leader whilst helping us manage our growth and deliver excellent support services. 

We offer flexible remote working – we expect 3 days per week of effort but how you deliver that is open to discussion. And we are offering what we believe is a competitive financial and benefits package for the role.

We plan to do first-round interviews through February and are hoping to appoint to the role in March.

Closing date for applications is Friday 30th January.
