The role of Head of Property in Guildford Diocese is much more than a matter of bricks and mortar. It’s about enhancing the morale and wellbeing of our clergy and their families (our greatest asset), as they live and work in diverse communities across the diocese, and learn to call their vicarage a home. It’s about helping churches make the most of their property assets for the mission and ministry to which God’s called them. It’s about overseeing our whole property portfolio as a diocese, and unlocking its potential for the future. It’s integral to our vision of a Transforming Church, Transforming Lives.

As Head of Property your skills will be key to helping us develop and support our property portfolio and processes to fulfil these strategic goals as well as to ensure strong and effective management and maintenance of our buildings and land. This is a hands on and busy role supported by a small in-house property and church care team that delivers a key function of the support we provide to our Parishes from our Operations team based at Church House Guildford.

We are looking for a proven hands-on leader and skilled property professional with a track-record of property portfolio management, both residential and community based. We want someone who can inspire and support their own team, our leadership team and the wider organisation. But most of all, we are looking for a colleague who shares the missional passion and heart to reach and serve communities in this place. 

About the role

We are looking for a leader to provide strategic vision and direction to drive our evolving approach to our global partnership and organisational capacity strengthening. This will include leading the process of partnership transition and our thinking on distributed leadership, through the development of new and better ways of engagement, collaboration and mutual accountability within our evolving global partnership. Capturing the very latest thinking on network and partnership building from across the HIV and development sectors, you will help us maximise our impact on a future free from AIDS for everyone everywhere. 

You will lead a team working to achieve greatest impact in order to support civil society to be connected and effective elements of sustainable community and health systems. 

About us

We’ve been on the frontline of the world’s response to HIV and AIDS for 25 years, working with marginalised people who are denied HIV prevention and treatment simply because of who they are and where they live.

Set up in 1993 to work with community groups in the countries most affected by the global AIDS epidemic, we’ve continually adapted our approach, looking for innovative ways to break down the barriers that marginalise people living with, or at risk of acquiring, HIV. All with one goal in mind – a future free from AIDS for everyone, everywhere.

Everything we do is rooted in our two key beliefs:

• That the lives of all human beings are of equal value.
• That everyone has the right to access the HIV information and services they need for a healthy life.

Today, we work with communities in more than 40 countries, taking local, national and global action on HIV, health and human rights.

As a global partnership that is open to everyone, we can only do what we do – and achieve what we want to achieve – by working with partners from grassroots community groups to national governments. Our partners drive change where it matters, shaking up the status quo and making a noise on issues the world often chooses to ignore.

Are you the Frontliner we’re looking for?

You are a committed team member with a clear focus on team objectives, as well as your own. You will promote best practice within your field of expertise and challenge ways of working to ensure the highest quality and levels of efficiency. Your actions will be aligned with Frontline AIDS vision and you will inspire the same behaviour in your peers. You are comfortable working in a matrix management environment.

Charity People actively promotes equality, diversity and inclusion. We match charity needs with skills and experience of candidates, irrespective of age, disability (including hidden disabilities), race, religion or belief, gender, gender identity or gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, or sexual orientation. We do this because we know greater diversity will lead to even greater results for the charities we work with.

Partnerships are at the heart of everything ILC does. Whether as formal members of our Partners Programme or working with us on individual projects, our relationships with charities, businesses and other key stakeholders are what sustain us. We want to invest in developing these relationships and are therefore recruiting for a Head of Partnerships and Development to help us work with others to develop, grow and maximise our impact and visibility.

Our expectations are high. In the first year, we will be looking to you to help us bring in at least three new Partners Programme members as well as “sell in” projects to existing Partners. But this is not a cold calling job and we have a great track record to build upon.

• We already work at a senior level with some of the world’s biggest companies whether that be Pfizer, EY or Aviva.
• We have strong policy, research and events expertise. We are acknowledged experts in ageing and people want to listen to what we have to say.

As Head of Partnerships and Development, you will be required to work under your own initiative and represent the organisation at networking events in the UK and possibly across the world. You’ll meet interesting people and attend exciting events, acting as a visible face of the organisation.

There won’t be a typical day at ILC. One day you might be having lunch with an MD of a financial services company, another day you will have your head down on a tight proposal deadline. Another day might involve an early morning call with colleagues in Australia or Singapore, kicking off a global initiative.

Within the first few months, you will have met all of our existing Partners, developed a strong understanding of our work and connected with the team to develop ideas and proposals. You will have attended receptions and got yourself in front of potential new supporters.

We are a small team of twelve, headed by Baroness Sally Greengross as Chief Executive. You will play a key part in our future success.

For a small organisation, we offer good benefits, flexible working and a pension. We even give you your birthday as an extra day of leave as well as additional leave at Christmas and over the New Year.
