Who we are

Safe and Sound is a well-established Derby-based charity supporting vulnerable children and young people affected by exploitation and risk across the city and county. For over two decades, we have worked to prevent, support and help rebuild lives to a point where we are no longer needed, no matter how long that takes. We do this work by working in engaging local communities to deliver education, intervention and recovery services that change lives.

Following a period of significant development, including the successful merger with another local charity and investment in our facilities, we are now entering a period of consolidation. This is a moment to build on strong foundations and ensure long-term sustainability.

About the role

We are seeking a Chief Executive who can lead Safe and Sound through its next phase with confidence, creativity and purpose.

This is a broad and visible leadership role, combining strategic oversight with hands-on engagement. You will:

• Provide overall leadership to the organisation, ensuring high-quality delivery and strong outcomes for young people.
• Lead on income generation, developing sustainable funding streams and building relationships with key funders.
• Act as the public face of the charity, representing Safe and Sound across Derby’s business, public and voluntary sectors.
• Support and develop a committed staff team, fostering a positive and high-performing culture.
• Ensure the organisation remains responsive to emerging risks, including evolving challenges facing young people

Who we are looking for

We are looking for a values-led leader who can combine strong operational leadership with a confident and credible external presence.

You may be an existing CEO or a senior leader ready to step into your first chief executive role.

We are particularly interested in candidates who can demonstrate:

• The ability to lead and inspire teams in complex, people-focused environments.
• Experience of securing income and building sustainable funding models.
• Strong relationship-building skills, with the confidence to represent an organisation publicly.
• Sound understanding of governance, safeguarding and organisational risk.

A strong connection to Derby or the ability to quickly build credibility and networks locally will be important. This is not a remote role; you will need to be visible, present and embedded in the community.

Why join Safe and Sound

This is an opportunity to lead a respected and impactful organisation at a genuinely positive moment.

As our Chief Executive, you can expect:

• A financially stable charity with strong governance.
• A committed and experienced team of staff and volunteers.
• Established partnerships and a recognised local profile.
• The space to shape the next chapter while building on existing success.

Most importantly, you will have the opportunity to make a lasting difference to the lives of vulnerable young people across Derby.

Applications for this role close at 9 a.m. Friday 22nd May.
