Yeldall Manor is seeking a visionary, faith-driven, and servant-hearted Chief Executive Officer to lead our Christian charity into its next chapter.

Yeldall Manor is a Christian residential rehabilitation centre supporting men who are struggling with addiction. Rooted in our Basis of Faith, Ethos Statement, and Values, we offer hope, healing, and transformation through Christ-centred care.

For nearly 50 years, Yeldall has been a place of restoration and new beginnings — helping men break free from addiction and rebuild their lives with dignity, purpose and faith.

As CEO, you will work closely with the Board of Trustees to provide strategic leadership, spiritual guidance, and compassionate oversight across all aspects of the organisation. You will bring the experience, insight, and communication skills needed to inspire and equip our dedicated staff, volunteers, and partners — ensuring that Yeldall continues to flourish in its mission and ministry.

We are seeking a visionary leader with a committed Christian faith — someone who can uphold and model the ethos and values of Yeldall Manor while supporting residents in their spiritual journey. You will be an experienced and compassionate leader, able to guide teams through change and growth, and a gifted communicator who can inspire trust and collaboration across staff, residents, and external partners.

A passion for supporting individuals in recovery and personal transformation is essential. If you are in recovery yourself, you must have a minimum of two years’ clean time.

Yeldall Manor is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of its residents. The successful candidate will be required to undergo a satisfactory enhanced DBS check.

This is a permanent position, available on a full-time or part-time (0.8 FTE) basis. We are happy to be flexible for the right candidate.

If this opportunity excites you and you feel called to lead and serve in this way, we would love to hear from you. Please submit your CV and a covering letter outlining your suitability for the role.

We would like to fill this post as soon as possible, so please apply by 12 noon on Monday 1st December 2025. Early applications are encouraged.

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 Volunteer Coordinator to play a pivotal role in our Volunteer Service for Domestic Abuse in London.

Sounds great, what will I be doing?

This role focuses on leading and coordinating volunteer-led projects across Hestia's Domestic Abuse (DA) services using a structured project management approach. You will be responsible for engaging, recruiting, and onboarding volunteers in line with Hestia's processes, ensuring they are well-supported and integrated into service delivery. A key aspect of the role involves inspiring teams to think creatively about how volunteers can enhance services, particularly in ways that bring joy, empowerment, and purpose to women affected by domestic abuse. You will build strong relationships with DA services, providing guidance to staff to ensure volunteers are effectively supported and valued. The role also includes managing volunteer enquiries, promoting volunteering opportunities externally, and maintaining accurate records for monitoring and reporting purposes. Representing Hestia in the wider community, you'll act as an ambassador for the volunteering programme, championing the positive impact volunteers make. This is a dynamic and rewarding position that requires strong communication, coordination, and relationship-building skills.

What do I need to bring with me?

You'll need to be able to demonstrate the core skills this role requires as well as match our values and mission. You don't have to tick all the boxes right away; the important thing is that you're willing to learn. We also value lived experience of the areas we support, so if you feel comfortable, please do mention this on your application.

Here's what the team will be looking for:

The role requires strong organisational and project management skills, along with the ability to provide professional and empowering support to volunteers, peers, and service users. While experience in recruiting or supervising volunteers is beneficial, it is not essential. A friendly and approachable manner is crucial for engaging effectively with people. Proficiency in Microsoft Office and Outlook is expected, as are good literacy, numeracy, and evaluation skills. The ideal candidate will have a solid understanding of cultural, social, and health issues affecting Hestia's service users, particularly those impacted by domestic abuse. They should also be capable of building collaborative relationships with external partners across sectors and have a sound understanding of safeguarding practices.

Don't be alarmed if there are other stages in the process, it's all part of the plan for some of our roles.

Our services users come from all walks of life and so do we. We hire great people from a wide variety of backgrounds because it makes us stronger.
