We’re recruiting: Chief Executive Officer

The Finance Innovation Lab works for a financial system that serves people and planet – one that’s democratic, responsible and fair. We incubate the ideas and people with the potential to transform the system, and we advocate for changes in the rules that shape the way finance works.

We’re a unique charity with a global reputation as a pioneer in systems change. Our work is driven by the belief that the dysfunctions of our financial system contribute to some of our most pressing social and environmental challenges, from fossil fuel extraction to unaffordable housing, but that it doesn’t have to be this way: people created the system and people can change it.

The Lab began as a collaboration between WWF-UK and the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales in 2009, and became an independent charity in 2015. We’re incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved since independence, including:

• Lab Fellowship, our flagship programme for financial innovators focused on social and environmental impact
• Our groundbreaking report The Regulatory Compass, arguing that policymakers and regulators should put social purpose at the heart of their work
• Our pioneering work supporting finance professionals to transform their organisations from the inside
• Our growing community of changemakers in finance – innovators, intrapreneurs and influencers all working to build a better financial system.
• Our highly-regarded publication A Strategy for Systems Change, documenting the Lab’s journey from conception to independence.

This is a unique opportunity to lead a global pioneer in systems change. You’ll shape our vision and strategy for a financial system that serves people and planet, guiding our programmes and scaling our work to achieve maximum impact. Acting as a strategic partner to our COO, you’ll support the development and delivery of the Lab’s financial strategy and operational plans, and you’ll work with the COO, chair and vice-chairs to ensure we have a strong, engaged board.

You’ll lead our relationships with a wide range of influentials, harnessing our networks to develop powerful new initiatives and secure new sources of income for the Lab. You’ll build our reputation as a thought leader and maximise our brand profile with key audiences, and you’ll lead our relationships with key funders. As custodian of our methodologies and theory of change, you’ll ensure we’re responsive to change and we embed evaluation and learning throughout our work. You’ll lead and inspire our team to fulfil their potential, and support them to develop thought leadership around their work.

In all of your work and relationships, you’ll reflect the unique nature of the Lab’s approach to financial systems change and you’ll act in line with our values of collaboration, action learning and empowerment.

The role involves frequent travel, both in the UK and internationally, and you’ll need to attend events in the evening and at weekends (for which time off in lieu can be claimed). You’ll be based in our modern offices in Farringdon, with flexible working hours and scope for remote or home working some of the time. We also welcome applications from candidates wishing to job share, either individually or in a pair.

The person specification asks for a wide range of competencies and we recognise that we’re unlikely to find a candidate who fits every requirement. If you don’t meet all of the essential requirements but still believe you could thrive in the CEO role, please consider applying or get in touch to discuss your fit for the role.

Please note that from 20 December to 6 January we will have reduced capacity for responding to enquiries, so we encourage you to contact us as soon as possible.

Applications close at 9.00am on 7 January 2020. Please do not send a CV or letter of application – these will not be read.

Interviews will take place week commencing 27 January, with second interviews week commencing 3 February.

No recruitment agencies please – we will only consider direct applications for this role.

The Organisation

RightsInfo is an award-winning digital human rights charity that builds knowledge and support for human rights in the UK by producing engaging, accessible and beautifully-presented online human rights content.

In the UK, human rights are often controversial and often misunderstood. Many people see human rights as protecting villains and the “other” rather than themselves, leading to calls for the UK to leave the European Convention on Human Rights. Brexit will create multiple challenges for those who value the protection of human rights in the UK.

RightsInfo is fighting back against media misrepresentation of human rights. We want people to understand why human rights matter to them and people like them. We tell the positive stories of human rights with news stories, features, infographics, videos, documentaries - anything which gets people inspired and engaged over human rights. Our work now reaches tens of thousands of people every week. In just a few years, RightsInfo has gone from a start-up project to a leading charity with full-time staff, a talented team of volunteers, significant multi-year grants, an experienced board of trustees and an exciting future.

This is an exciting time for the charity as RightsInfo will be launching a new brand identity and name in December 2019, and are now looking for a new CEO to help this dynamic, young organisation evolve and grow, leading the organisation including working closely with our Creative Director and dynamic staff team.

The successful candidate will have strong experience leading high-performing teams in the charity sector and a good understanding of the UK human rights landscape. You will be a natural leader who has robust experience delivering against strategies, cultivating a portfolio of new major donors and achieving funding targets, managing grants, measuring impact, working positively with trustees, setting policies and processes, engaging thoughtfully with complex or controversial issues, representing your organisation publicly and inspiring teams.

RightsInfo welcome applications from dynamic and passionate senior leaders looking to step into their first CEO role.

Chief Executive
St. Catherine’s Hospice
£75,000 - £80,000
Full-time, permanent
Lostock Hall, Preston, Lancs.

Here for when it matters most.

St Catherine’s Hospice is a registered charity inspired, built and driven forward by local people for local people, which is held in high regard locally, regionally and nationally for the quality of the care it provides.

Our mission and commitment to the communities we serve is to continually strive to help more people facing life-shortening illnesses and to enable them to have quality of life to the end of life. To achieve this we need to balance the goals of quality, quantity and sustainability in equal measure so that we are able to meet the needs of a growing local population.

Each year St. Catherine’s helps around 2,000 patients and touch hundreds more through the experience of their loved ones. We serve a population of around 380,000 people across Chorley, Longridge, Preston and South Ribble.

Our specialised hospice care and complementary therapies are free of charge and it costs £11,500 each day to deliver our services and this excludes our ambitious plans for the re-build of the in-patient facilities by 2025. The annual running costs are currently in excess of £7m and the greater part, £4m, is the voluntary income raised through the fantastic community and business support we nurture. Alongside our fundraising, there are 18 shops and a successful trading company.

To be successful in the role, you will need to be able to demonstrate the senior management experience that this complex role demands as well as bring the dedicated, inspiring and empowering leadership qualities that are essential. 

With a strong ethos of team working based on values of care, compassion and commitment, the leadership of the Chief Executive is pivotal to the motivation and coordination of a large and hugely diverse team of both paid and voluntary staff.

Our success since the hospice was founded in 1985 is rooted in our ability to inspire others and this will only ever continue to be the case.

Application is by way of CV and Supporting Statement.

We’re looking for an exceptional leader, with a proven track record of successfully leading teams in similar organisations and a demonstrable commitment to improving the lives of young people. In addition to embedding a values driven culture and overseeing the efficient day-to-day running of the organisation, our new CEO will represent Lifespace in the wider community; building strong and lasting relationships with schools, parents, funders, partners and other key stakeholders.

This role reports into the Chair and Board of Trustees and has full accountability for the delivery of operational and fundraising, control of expenditure and risk management as well as responsibility for all aspects of the operation including team and mentor development, service delivery and business development.

If you’re excited by the opportunity to lead Lifespace and firmly believe that you meet our criteria,  please email your CV and brief covering email telling us why we should consider you for this role.

Chief Executive
Overcoming MS
Competitive salary, commensurate with experience

Overcoming Multiple Sclerosis (OMS) seeks to appoint an exceptional leader to succeed the current CEO, who will step down after more than seven years of dedicated service. The new CEO will lead the charity into its next phase of growth, expanding its digital footprint and its global activities.

OMS is a young, unique and dynamic charity bringing fresh hope to the MS community both in the UK and around the world. Established in 2012, its mission is to raise awareness of the OMS 7 Step Recovery Programme, a scientifically researched, evidence-based approach to MS management that has been shown to improve health outcomes through diet and lifestyle changes. 

OMS has grown from humble beginnings, with just a few dozen people engaged in the UK, to the global footprint and audience engagement it has today. Across its many experiential and digital platforms, the charity offers a variety of ways to inform, educate and empower people with MS, their families and communities.

MS is a global disease, which currently has no cure. It affects roughly 3 million people world-wide and there is no country which is free from MS. It affects people in the prime of their lives, aged between 20-40 years old, and affects three times as many women as men. In the UK alone, there are over 110,000 people diagnosed with MS, and a further 5,000 diagnosed each year.

The CEO reports to the Board of Trustees and will be responsible for all aspects of the overall strategy, planning, resourcing, operational performance and governance of OMS, as well as representing the organisation and its work externally. The postholder will instil and grow a strong internal organisational culture, working collaboratively with the Chair and other key stakeholders. The CEO will build and lead a motivated and high-performing team that will work to support the growth and nurturance of the OMS community in the UK and around the world.

The successful candidate will be a creative thinker with a strong sense of integrity and a values-driven approach. S/he will have a proven track record in leading an organisation through a step-change in growth, including digital and global expansion, expertise in relationship management, a strong understanding of fundraising, outstanding interpersonal and communication skills and a passion for OMS’ mission.

This is an outstanding opportunity for a motivated, entrepreneurial individual with a track record of success to develop professionally and take the Charity to its next level.

This is a full-time position based in Haddenham (Buckinghamshire), with flexible working possible once established in role.

Bristol

Full-time, permanent

For over thirty years Milestones Trust has played an important and active role in the pattern of social care in Bristol, South Gloucestershire and North Somerset.

Through the sixty residential, supported living and complementary personal development services we operate the Trust supports people with mental health needs, learning disabilities, and dementia as well as individuals with complex behavioural needs.

We enjoy a hard-earned and well-deserved reputation for the quality of the services that we provide, which is recognised by both commissioning bodies and inspectors alike. Quality and the outcomes we achieve provides the foundation for future sustainability.

On behalf of the staff and volunteers and the people the Trust supports, the trustees are seeking to appoint a new Chief Executive who will bring structured and dynamic leadership underpinned by the effective, high quality guidance, advice and support that ensures that statutory and regulatory duties are met and that strategic objectives are delivered.

You will be accountable for the overall management and development of the Trust, leading on the development of the strategic plan, annual delivery plan, budgets and all the organisational development strategies that will equip us with the workforce, structures and systems that our complex operation requires.

As well as maintaining excellence in service quality, fundamental to future success will be raising our profile as the provider of choice in the region, seizing new opportunities as they arise, and securing best value in our contract negotiations and service delivery. Accompanying this is the need to maintain a dynamic approach to the pattern of service delivery in order to better meet the needs of the people we serve and the evolving requirements of funders.

We seek a suitably experienced and skilled Chief Executive but above all else, you will need to match our genuine care for others that is embedded in our values, our heritage and the ambitions for the future.
