One of London’s historic “Magnificent Seven” cemeteries, the Cemetery Park is now a Local Nature Reserve and a vital green space in the heart of the East End — where biodiversity, heritage and community come together.
Founded in 1990, the Friends are an award-winning charity dedicated to protecting and caring for this unique site. Now, we are looking for a values-driven, collaborative leader to help strengthen our organisation for the future.
About the role
This is a senior leadership position within a collaborative charity structure. You will:
– Work closely with the Board of Trustees on strategy and governance
– Lead on finance, fundraising and organisational sustainability
– Support and develop staff and volunteers
– Represent the charity externally
– Work in close partnership with our longstanding Cemetery Park Manager
Importantly, this is not a corporate CEO role. It is an opportunity to lead within a community-rooted, place-based charity where humility, partnership and emotional intelligence matter as much as strategy.
We’re looking for someone who:
- Has senior experience in a charity or values-led organisation
- Understands governance and financial sustainability
- Can build trust with staff, volunteers and stakeholders
- Is excited by heritage, conservation and community
As a small charity, this role balances strategic thinking with hands-on involvement.
