What is the Parent-Infant Foundation?

We are a national charity that works to ensure the healthy social and emotional development of every baby, through focusing on the relationship between parents and their babies from pregnancy and into the first years of life. 

Our mission is to support the growth, quality and sustainability of specialised parent-infant relationship teams and to contribute to the evidence base supporting them.  We also campaign for infant mental health and its importance in the health of our nation, to local and national governments. We care about infant mental health because babies cannot wait. 

This is an exciting time to join the Parent-Infant Foundation; we are seeing increased investment in and development of parent-infant teams across the UK and this role provides the opportunity to play an influential role in that momentum.

We are keen to attract applicants from all ages, cultures, ethnicities, sexualities, religions and genders. We are very parent-friendly, as you would expect. 

As Head of Clinical Strategy and Development, you will use your leadership skills, clinical experience and service development expertise to lead our development and implementation work.  This includes leadership of our comprehensive support offer to parent-infant relationship team commissioners, service developers and practitioners.  You will ensure we are providing detailed and expert consultancy on all aspects of service development such as business cases, service design, care pathway development, recruitment, intervention selection and measuring outcomes. We do not deliver, manage or inspect clinical services but we do provide comprehensive development and implementation support to them. We have a small development team which you will lead and manage in order to achieve our strategic goals. 

You will oversee our UK-wide programme of virtual and face to face learning events, ensuring they are high quality and impactful.  The role also requires regular dissemination of contemporary research and clinical literature and learning.  You will provide clinical leadership to all aspects of the Parent Infant Foundation, including working closely with Policy and Communications colleagues to create compelling evidence-based reports and presentations.  You will collaborate on press, media and publication activities, and contribute to fundraising applications and income generation activities.

Who we’re looking for 

We are looking for an enthusiastic and highly experienced clinician with leadership experience and clinical supervision skills. You will have extensive experience of working clinically with very young children and their carers.  We are looking for someone with exceptional relationship skills and extensive multi-disciplinary team working.  This role requires you to build strong relationships with a wide range of stakeholders, including senior managers, funders, commissioners, research and evaluation partners, and national policy makers. You will also need an understanding of infant mental health competencies and workforce training requirements.

You will need to be credible at a senior level with a track record of successful influencing. This role requires an understanding of research and evaluation work as it relates to parent-infant relationship teams and interventions.  We need someone who can lead and provide service development and quality improvement consultation, manage and deliver internal and external projects, and write clear, concise and compelling reports.

We are looking for a self-starter who is comfortable working from home but who prioritises team-working and relationship building to progress our strategic aims.

The role is for 3 days per week (22.5 hours). Core days are Tues & either Weds or Thurs.  The rest of the hours can be worked flexibly across the week but must be worked between 9am and 5pm.

Please see the job description for further details.

Interviews are scheduled to take place via Zoom on Wed 29th or Thurs 30th June 2022.

Veganuary is the non-profit that encourages people to go vegan for the month of January - and beyond. We focus on changing consumer behaviours and attitudes, while providing lots of information and practical support - to make the transition to veganism as easy and enjoyable as possible.

We also work with businesses to drive up vegan food provisions in shops and restaurants and have made veganism more visible and accessible through our work with national and international media.

What we do

• Our Aim: A world without animal farms and slaughterhouses. A world where food production does not decimate forests, pollute rivers and oceans, exacerbate climate change and drive wild animal populations to extinction.
   
• Our Mission: To inspire and support people to try vegan, drive corporate change, and create a global mass movement, championing compassionate food choices with the aim of ending animal farming, protecting the planet, and improving human health.

We work toward our lofty ambitions by following a simple, 3-step plan:

1. Encouraging and supporting millions of people to try veganism.
    
2. Creating the necessary media and social media buzz to raise awareness of the topic and the benefits of a vegan lifestyle.
    
3. Encouraging companies to promote and launch more delicious vegan options to increase the quality, availability and visibility of vegan food.

How we do it

You’ll have no doubt seen our public campaigns for Veganuary, you may even have tried it yourself. We’re incredibly proud of the global movement we’ve built, and it continues to grow year-on-year.

The part of work you might be a little less familiar with is our work in influencing businesses. The more businesses speak positively about veganism and launch new vegan products, the better the availability, visibility and quality of vegan products becomes, making it easier and tastier to try vegan. This is inspiring more people to choose plant-based options and stick with it long term.

Amongst many others, we are incredibly proud to have worked with the following companies to increase their vegan offering:

• Deliveroo
• Cadbury
• McDonalds
• Starbucks

What we’re looking for

As we head into the next phase of our strategy, we are looking for a talented Head of Operations and Finance who can help us build a robust, sustainable organisation. You will help us to shore up our gains to date and capitalise on the increasing number of growth opportunities coming our way.

This is a reimagining of an existing role and represents an investment in the charity’s future. We are looking for someone who can work closely with the board and executive to devise and implement business plans that are robust enough to accommodate our rapid growth and flexible enough to take advantage of new opportunities.

You will lead on financial management, supervise and optimise the organisation’s operations in the UK, and support our growing international team in operational matters.

Playing a pivotal part in the Senior Management Team, you will be responsible for ensuring that Veganuary’s day-to-day operations - including governance, administration, HR, finance, legal and IT remain compliant, responsive and efficient.

We don’t believe in prescriptive person specifications, as they limit the diversity of experience on our teams. We have just three questions of you, before you apply:

• Are you a qualified finance professional with significant experience of overseeing finance functions in UK charities?
   
• Are you a skilled strategic thinker with a proactive approach to solving problems?
   
• Do you enjoy building efficient structures and processes that limit bureaucracy and drive growth?

If you like what you’ve read, and your answer to all three questions above is “yes”, I recommend that you read the application pack by following the link below and consider getting in touch to discuss the role in more detail.
