It is designed for a leader who operates credibly at executive level, able to influence direction, challenge constructively, and bring clarity and sound judgement to complex and often ambiguous risk landscapes.

This role does not hold operational responsibility for delivery. Your impact will come from setting expectations, testing performance, and ensuring that risks are understood, owned, and acted upon at the right level. Success will depend on your ability to maintain independence, hold senior stakeholders to account, and build confidence in the directorate’s assurance approach over time.

You will bring significant experience from a large, multi-site or similarly complex organisation, with a track record of operating beyond operational management into strategic oversight and governance.

This role will suit someone who is self-directed, comfortable with ambiguity, and confident in maintaining their position when influencing becomes challenging. A visible on-campus presence, typically 3-4 days per week, is essential to engage effectively with senior leaders and operational teams.

About you:

To be successful in this role, we are looking for candidates to have the following skills and experience:

Essential criteria

1. Competence to act as a senior health and safety professional under Regulation 7 of the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations.
2. A recognised health and safety qualification at Level 6 or above, or equivalent professional experience, with commitment to ongoing CPD.
3. Experience providing health and safety leadership and oversight at enterprise level within a multi-site organisation, with evidence of improving risk management.
4. Experience providing executive-level H&S advice to senior leaders and/or boards within multifaceted organisations.
5. Experience establishing health and safety management systems, including risk registers, governance arrangements, audit programmes and performance reporting.
6. Ability to operate effectively in ambiguity and confidently challenge senior leaders on health and safety matters while maintaining constructive working relationships.
7. Experience leading health and safety audits and reviews, with the ability to interpret findings, identify systemic issues and drive improvement through influence.
8. Strong written communication skills to produce clear, high-quality reports, with experience presenting confidently to senior stakeholders.

Desirable criteria

1. Experience working within asset-intensive, safety-critical or highly regulated environments.
2. Experience working with formal health and safety management systems or equivalent governance frameworks.

We are looking for an experienced youth worker to join our team and lead our Short Breaks project, which provides activities and support specifically for children and young people who have autism and have low to moderate support needs. Camp Mohawk is a woodland activity centre that provides support to children, young people and families from across the South of England.

The children and young people (approximately 100 individuals) supported by the project are aged 8 to approximately 25 years and are largely independent in terms of their self care but have a variety of social, sensory and sometimes medical needs that mean it is very difficult for them to participate in mainstream activities. Our Short Breaks service offers after school activities (in 3 age groups) on Tuesdays and Thursdays in term time, as well as full days of activities once per week in school holidays. These activities give the young people essential social opportunities during which they are supported with things they find challenging, encouraged to express their natural personalities and explore and develop their interests. During these sessions they can receive support to develop their social skills if that is what they need, and can take part in fun activities with their peers. The groups generally cater for between 10 and 20 young people per session.

To be a good fit for this role, you will need to be an exceptional and dedicated childcare / youth worker who has proven experience of supporting and safeguarding children and young people, particularly those who have autism. You should have experience of planning inclusive activities, managing budgets and supervising teams of staff. The role is very much a ‘hands on’ role working directly with the project beneficiaries for the majority of the post hours - you must be able to commit to working the majority of Tuesday (16.00 - 19.30) and Thursday (18.30 - 22.00) evenings in term time, and at least one full day (09.00 - 17.30) per week during school holidays, with the exception of the Christmas holidays when the centre is closed. You will work 10 hours per month on project associated admin which can be undertaken remotely and largely at times that suit you. You must have a full UK driving license and access to a reliable vehicle that is insured for business use. Camp Mohawk is not easily accessible by public transport, whilst some Short Breaks activities take place at off site locations in Reading, Wokingham, Maidenhead, Bracknell, Slough and surrounding areas.

The current post holder also works in the role of Duty Manager for other school holiday days / term time weekend days. This aspect of the role, which will be an optional add on to the Short Breaks Coordinator role with negotiable hours, would be undertaken on a rotational basis with our 4 other Duty Managers. The role involves overseeing the daily delivery of general Family Sessions which support families who have children of all ages and who have a wide range of special needs and disabilities. In this role you will guide and supervise a team of support staff and volunteers through set up of the facilities at the start of the day, oversee the smooth and effective delivery of the service and support families during their visits, work effectively within our Safeguarding Lead Team, and supervise the cleaning and close down of facilities once the session has completed.

For full job description and person specification please see the attached application pack. Informal enquiries prior to application to discuss the role requirements, and applicant requirements in terms of hours and salary, are welcomed.

The successful applicant will be required to undergo all checks and training in accordance with our Safe Recruitment policy including enhanced DBS check, satisfactory references and Right to Work check.
