Are you looking for a new challenge and want to make a meaningful difference in the lives of people with a visible difference?

Changing Faces are looking for someone with a strategic mindset, who will be a key member of the Senior Management Team and delivering on our two strategic goals:

• Everyone across the UK with a visible difference or disfigurement will have access to the support they need
• We will significantly increase everyone’s understanding and acceptance of visible difference and disfigurement, and reduce prejudice and discrimination

The new Head of Finance and Resources will have responsibility for a high-quality finance and business support service including managing HR, IT and facilities. We are a small organisation so you will need to be prepared to be operationally “hands-on”, and to work collaboratively and flexibly across the whole organisation to help enable our success. We are also always looking to improve our systems, and so the right candidate will also be passionate about continual development of processes to best meet the needs of the organisation and those we support.

Overall Purpose of the Role

• Responsible for leading and managing a high-quality finance and business support service encompassing IT, HR, and Facilities.
• To play a leading role as a member of the Leadership team to ensure Changing Faces achieves its strategic goals and vision.
• To continue the improvement in processes and systems within the Finance and Resources function to increase effectiveness, improve reporting, add value, and thereby reduce manual processes.

About Changing Faces

Changing Faces is the UK’s leading charity for everyone who has a mark, scar or condition that makes them look different (a visible difference). Being different in a society where there is such pressure to look a certain way is extremely difficult.

We provide unique practical, social and emotional support for people affected by visible difference; we challenge discrimination and campaign for a world that respects difference.

Our services build confidence and resilience – giving people the tools to manage their feelings, cope in different social settings, handle other people’s reactions or deal with life, education, work and relationships.

We won’t stop until everyone with a visible difference or disfigurement is supported and respected.

Equality and inclusion are at the heart of our mission and we are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace. We are always looking for talented people from all backgrounds, including those with a visible difference or disfigurement, to join us. In line with our commitments to equity, we are particularly seeking applications from People of Colour / BAME and LGBTIQA+ people. We have a flexible working culture which, as a member of the leadership team, this role will play a leading role overseeing. We are open to conversations about how this could apply to this role.

If you share our commitment, bring the skills and leadership qualities we are seeking and are excited by our vision we’d love to hear from you.

Birth Companions is a charity that supports women experiencing multiple disadvantage during the perinatal period in the community in London and the southeast, and in prisons across the country.

Our work aims to improve the lives of mothers and babies by:

- improving the mental health and well-being of pregnant women and new mother
- enabling new mothers to give their babies the best possible start in life
- empowering women to fulfil their potential through engagement
- driving improvements in the local and national policy and practice that impacts on mothers and their babies.

By working towards these aims, we hope that all women who face disadvantage and inequality during this crucial point in their lives will have the support they need to give their baby the best possible start, and to fulfil their own potential, whatever their circumstances. 

Birth Companions’ values have shaped the organisation’s approach from the outset and are still as important to us as ever. We are a women’s organisation built on feminist principles, delivering woman-to-woman support. Choice, empowerment and protecting women’s rights have always been central to the way we work. Through the work of our staff and trained volunteers we offer practical and emotional support before, during and after birth. We work in a woman-centred way that is trauma-informed, flexible and non-judgemental, basing our support on what a woman tells us she needs. 

Work across our frontline services shows us what matters to women, and where things can and should be better in the care they receive from others. Based on these insights, we commission academic and peer-led research and direct the attention of local and national policy-makers, commissioners and service providers to what needs to change, and how. Everyone at Birth Companions plays a role in this. Communication and collaboration between our frontline practitioners, policy and engagement staff and the women in our Lived Experience Team means we are able to identify and monitor issues and themes and draw on learning in order to feed them into conversations with senior stakeholders across maternity, criminal justice, social services and immigration. In this way we ensure our policy and influencing work is rooted in the day-to-day experiences of women and what will make most difference to them and their babies. 

The Criminal Justice Services Manager will manage and develop all aspects of Birth Companions’ criminal justice-based services and line-manage the criminal justice services Coordinators, (currently three staff members but this likely to increase as we expand our services).

They will develop and maintain strategic partnerships with other relevant agencies and ensure the successful delivery of services through internal monitoring and evaluation, external evaluation and the charity’s governance structures.

The Criminal Justice Services Manager will be responsible for contributing to the development and implementation of new prison and wider criminal justice system-based services through stakeholder engagement and service design where opportunities are identified.

The Criminal Justice Services Manager will also contribute to the policy, engagement and strategic work of the organisation where appropriate.

At Hestia, we are guided by our core values and are dedicated to fostering an equitable, diverse, and inclusive organisation. Our mission is to empower individuals to rebuild their lives and achieve independence. Right now, we are looking for a Philanthropy Manager to play a pivotal role in our Head Office in Aldgate.

Sounds great, what will I be doing?

This is an exciting opportunity to join Hestia at a pivotal point in its fundraising journey. Over the past five years, Hestia has developed a successful and growing fundraising programme, which includes support from charitable trusts and foundations, statutory grant makers, corporate partners, individual givers, and high-value donors.

This role offers the chance to significantly grow the programme's reach and impact.

As Philanthropy Manager, you will be a confident and strategic relationship manager with the ability to engage, inspire, and steward a portfolio of major donors and prospects. Working closely with the Head of Philanthropy, you will deliver personalised stewardship plans, craft compelling proposals, and manage a pipeline of four, five, and six-figure gifts. You will also line manage the Senior Supporter Care and Finance Coordinator, contributing to a high-performing and motivated team. This role is ideal for a proactive fundraiser who is passionate about making a meaningful difference to the lives of people affected by domestic abuse, modern slavery, and mental health challenges.

They will have a strong track record in developing and delivering individual giving and donor stewardship campaigns, as well as managing complex, cross-team projects and leading people, whether through formal line management or working with volunteers.

The candidate will be organised, detail-oriented, and able to work effectively under pressure to meet deadlines. They will have strong digital skills, including confident use of CRM and email marketing systems, along with MS Office tools such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. With a creative and innovative approach to fundraising, they will also have a solid understanding of data protection legislation (GDPR) and safeguarding principles. Importantly, they will demonstrate empathy and alignment with Hestia's mission, supporting individuals affected by domestic abuse, modern slavery, and mental health challenges.
