This is a full-time Chief Exec role offering an exciting time to join an organisation making
a huge impact with minimal resources. As the Organisation enters its tenth year,
regrettably the need for this work has never been greater and in addition to enhancing
existing projects, we plan to grow our Dignity Centre locations as well as expand our
outreach and impact in the coming two to five years. As a small charity, the role is
incredibly varied as well as hands-on. While there is no physical back office, meaning
the role is mostly from home/remote, the CEO spends sustained periods of time in our
projects in Nicosia, Cyprus and Bournemouth, UK as well as any new or potential
project sites in the UK and abroad. A typical day could include troubleshooting and
managing maintenance problems at distance for our projects in Nicosia and
Bournemouth, preparing and delivering interviews and presentations to the media or for
donors, calling volunteers to prepare them for collaborating with us and collating
indicator data for impact reports.

Help a Black-led national youth music charity run brilliantly behind the scenes. We’re hiring an experienced operations manager to own the systems, administration and reporting that enable our work with young people to thrive.
UD Music Foundation is a Black-led National Youth Music Organisation based in Stratford, Newham, with a 25-year track record rooted in Black music culture. Founded by musicians in 2000, UD educates, empowers and creates life opportunities for young people, addressing racial and socio-economic inequality through talent development, skills building and pathways into the music industry.
This is a senior, hands-on operational role in a small, mission-driven organisation. You will take ownership of our core operational, administrative and reporting systems—bringing structure, consistency and follow-through across calendars, documentation, records, deadlines and organisational processes. Working closely with the Chief Executive Officer, you will help ensure UD runs smoothly, reliably and responsibly.
You’ll play a key role in:
-
maintaining strong operational and administrative systems and accurate records
-
coordinating funder reporting, monitoring returns and evidence collation across grants
-
supporting financial administration (invoices, expenses, contractor payments) and audit readiness
-
coordinating governance administration with the CEO (board papers, registers, policy updates)
-
supporting project delivery administration including events, workshops and performances
-
overseeing operational compliance administration (data protection, safeguarding, health and safety)
This role is for someone who enjoys being the organisational “glue”—methodical, calm, and highly organised—with strong judgement, attention to detail and confidence managing competing deadlines. It is not a programme-leading or strategy role.
UD is committed to equity, diversity and inclusion and warmly welcomes applications from candidates underrepresented in the arts and cultural sector. We are happy to discuss access needs or reasonable adjustments at any stage of the process.
