This pivotal role will manage a high-value portfolio, forging deep, long-term partnerships that will unlock the resources needed to end homelessness for good. You will play a leading role in advancing our £20m Housing Supply campaign — an ambitious initiative at the heart of Crisis’ strategy to deliver genuinely affordable homes.

As a visible and influential ambassador for Crisis, you will work closely with senior stakeholders, Trustees, and volunteers to identify and inspire new opportunities for giving at the highest level. This is more than a fundraising role — it’s about building a movement of transformational support that will change lives and help shape a future free from homelessness.

About you

You will bring a strong track record of securing seven-figure philanthropic gifts, with proven success in developing new high-value relationships using a thoughtful, relationship-led approach. Your experience working with ultra-high-net-worth individuals, foundations, and senior stakeholders will be matched by your deep understanding of donor motivations and philanthropic psychology. You will be confident navigating complex organisations, able to build internal consensus, and experienced in managing engagement through senior volunteers or development boards. Your excellent interpersonal and influencing skills will ensure you thrive in high-level conversations and build long-lasting, meaningful partnerships.

Strategic and creative in your thinking, you’ll have a sharp eye for opportunities and the ability to develop compelling donor propositions that align with Crisis’ vision and priorities. You will be a strong communicator — both in writing and in person — with the credibility to engage and inspire some of our most significant supporters. With an entrepreneurial mindset, you’ll be proactive, adaptable, and eager to learn in a fast-paced, ambitious environment. Most importantly, you’ll share Crisis’ deep commitment to ending homelessness and to the values of equality, inclusion, and lasting social change.

Harris Hill is delighted to be partnering exclusively with a respected international membership body to recruit their new Executive Assistant to the CEO.

This is a unique opportunity to step into a pivotal role, working directly with the Chief Executive, the President, and the Board of Trustees. The current postholder will be retiring in 2026, and as such, the successful candidate will benefit from a substantial handover period, ensuring a smooth transition and excellent preparation for success.

The Executive Assistant will be the key point of coordination for the CEO’s office, providing high-level executive and secretarial support across a wide range of responsibilities. This includes managing correspondence and reports on behalf of the CEO and President, ensuring they are fully briefed ahead of meetings and events, and maintaining seamless communication with the Board of Trustees. The role also involves supporting Board processes, facilitating inductions and development, and coordinating high-profile events such as the Annual General Meeting and the Presidential Address. As the trusted aide to both the CEO and President, you will be relied upon to act with initiative and judgement, occasionally making decisions and delegating on their behalf. The role also carries responsibility for coordinating leadership meetings, managing projects, and maintaining accurate and accessible records that capture both current business and the institution’s history.

The successful candidate will bring proven experience as an Executive Assistant or Personal Assistant at a senior level, ideally within a charity, membership, or professional body. You will be highly organised and proactive, comfortable juggling multiple priorities, and confident in building relationships with stakeholders at all levels. Strong communication skills, both written and verbal, are essential, alongside the ability to handle sensitive information with the utmost discretion. Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Office and the wider Microsoft 365 suite is expected, and you will be adept at drafting reports, formal minutes, and correspondence to a high standard.

Above all, this role calls for someone who can balance meticulous attention to detail with the ability to see the bigger picture. You will be solutions-focused, resilient under pressure, and motivated by continuous improvement.

To apply, please submit your up-to-date CV by the 11th of November 2025 at 09:00 AM. Shortlisted candidates will receive the full job description and be asked to provide a tailored cover letter. As applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, we encourage early submissions.
