Our client is the UK’s leading road safety charity. Their role is simple, yet vital – to make journeys safer for everyone who uses the road.

Between four and five people lose their lives on UK roads every day, and more than 75 are seriously injured in collisions. Each death leaves a family grieving, and every serious injury can change lives forever.

The charity is working to change this through education and training programmes, alongside campaigning for policy reforms to make roads safer for everyone.

Chief Executive Officer
£110,000 + benefits
Hybrid working – At least 3 days in the office, Welwyn Garden City area

Joining the organisation in its 70th anniversary year, the new Chief Executive Officer will provide inspiring, person-centred leadership to their committed teams and volunteers.

They will work closely with members, partners, and stakeholders to influence policy, behaviour, and public understanding of road safety, while applying strategic and commercial expertise to secure long-term financial sustainability, diversify income, and maximise charitable impact.

Key responsibilities include:

• Ensure financial sustainability through budgeting, forecasting, risk management, and investment planning.
• Lead the development and delivery of the strategic plan with the Board.
• Drive growth across membership, training, fundraising, and commercial activities, including partnerships and sponsorships.
• Enhance the organisation’s influence, visibility, and impact in road safety and driver/rider training.
