The General Assembly of Unitarian and Free Christian Churches (GA) is the central charity that supports its member congregations, ministers and societies in England, Scotland and Wales. Its purpose is to promote free and inquiring religion, through inclusive, free-thinking communities that draw on wisdom from all sources, without doctrine or dogma. Our congregations are autonomous and locally led; the GA is not a hierarchical leadership body, but one that supports and leads alongside our members.
As Britain’s religious culture and context has changed, so have Unitarian communities, and the GA is in a process of adapting to best meet these changing needs.
The purpose of this role
This is a new role, being the operational engine to strengthen the organisation at a time of change. Shifts in the wider Unitarian movement with patterns of innovation, rebuilding, and growth alongside congregational vulnerabilities and closures mean that the GA’s operational function must adapt.
This role would suit someone who is excited to manage governance, systems, and data as strategic enablers in a values-driven organisation, who can drive change while delivering operational excellence.
This is a role with real scope to shape how an organisation that is approaching its centenary works in the years ahead - including how good data, digital systems, and emerging tools can support a small team to make best use of its resources and build capacity for relational work.
The Operations Director will work closely with the Chief Officer, and will be a collaborative and proactive enabler to lead a transition to a future-fit organisation that can better serve its members and have a greater impact.
You don't need to be Unitarian or a person of faith to apply. We welcome candidates from all backgrounds and beliefs who are drawn to work within a values-led organisation.
What you’ll be doing
-
Strategy & organisational development — Partner closely with the Chief Officer to shape strategy, translate priorities into action, and build the systems that make us resilient.
-
Governance, legal & compliance — Serve as Company Secretary, stewarding our transition to CIO and ensuring we meet our legal and regulatory obligations with confidence.
-
Financial oversight — Ensure financial management arrangements (including outsourced providers) deliver accurate, timely information and sound controls; work with the Honorary Treasurer and external accountants on budgeting, fund oversight and audit support, escalating risks and holding providers to account.
-
Systems, data & digital — Lead our information infrastructure, oversee our CRM migration, and champion a culture of good data practice — including thoughtful use of AI where beneficial.
-
People & HR — Line manage two team members and keep our HR and supplier relationships running smoothly, with care and clarity.
-
Unitarian relationships — Nurture collaborative relationships with key Unitarian bodies from an operational perspective, including governance support for affiliated organisations.
-
Events & communications — Take operational ownership of the Annual Meeting and ensure the infrastructure behind our communications is solid and reliable.
See the attached job description for more details.
What core skills and experience you’ll have
Essential:
-
Senior operations leadership experience in a purpose-led or membership organisation, with a track record of building capacity through periods of organisational change.
-
Experience leading complex organisational change and systems transformation, including the people dimensions of change.
-
Experience managing contracted delivery of services by third parties
-
Financial literacy sufficient to own management accounts, lead a budgeting process, and act as a critical friend to trustees on financial governance.
-
Must be comfortable interrogating financial information and holding external providers to account; accountancy qualification not required
-
Experience of leading the implementation or significant improvement of CRM, financial management, or other organisational systems — including managing migration risk
-
Experience of people management, and good HR / employment practice
-
Substantial experience of charity governance and compliance
-
Solid working knowledge of UK charity law and Charity Commission requirements, including the ability to advise senior colleagues and trustees with confidence

We believe that no family should have to live this on their own and we are determined to walk alongside every family through life, death and beyond.
At Tŷ Hafan we are experts at caring for children with life-shortening conditions and our services support families in our hospice, in community settings, local hospitals and in families’ homes. We understand that the needs of each child and their family are unique and we know that caring for a child with a life-shortening condition is often extremely demanding. Our aim is to make sure that no one doing this is alone. Our colleagues, volunteers and supporters are crucial in the delivery of our ambition – we know that everyone plays a huge part in making sure that no family faces their child’s short life alone.
Our Vision: A Wales where every child with a life-shortening condition lives a fulfilling life, supported with the compassion and specialist care they and their family need.
Our Purpose: No family should have to face the unimaginable loss of their child alone. With children and families at the heart of all we do, we provide free care and support in our hospice and in the community, offering a lifeline throughout the child’s short life, at end of life, through bereavement and beyond.
Our Values: At Tŷ Hafan we make a difference by living our values: Demonstrating Compassion, Providing Excellent Service, Working Together and Taking Ownership.

Tommy’s is the leading charity that exists to stop the heartbreak and devastation of baby loss and make pregnancy and birth safe - for everyone.
This is an important moment for Tommy’s. We are embarking on a period of transformation to allow us to grow our reach, awareness and impact. We are investing in our data, systems and technology so that they are fit for the future and allow us to save more babies’ lives.
The Deputy Director of Data and Technology will lead this transformation – working closely with the COO to shape and deliver the strategy, governance and change needed for Tommy’s to thrive.
The role
This new role is a focal point for technology strategy, partnering the business in the capability of technology and data to increase front line impact and the charities goals.
- Lead Tommy’s data and technology strategies and roadmaps.
- Identify practical quick wins and longer-term priorities.
- Strengthen data governance, quality, insight and reporting.
- Improve integration and use of data across systems.
- Oversee core systems, outsourced IT managed service provider, cyber security and business continuity.
- Lead and develop the database team.
- Chair the Technology Advisory Group.
- Act as a visible, trusted business partner across the organisation.
About you
We are looking for a collaborative and credible leader with experience in data, technology and transformation.
You may come from technology leadership within charity, but you do not need to. We are open to candidates who will bring expertise and innovation from other sectors.
You will bring experience of:
- Leading data, technology and change.
- Developing and delivering organisation-wide strategies or roadmaps.
- Managing systems, budgets and priorities.
- Developing outsourced MSP relationships to deliver value and service.
- Translating technical issues into clear, practical decisions.
- Influencing senior stakeholders and non-technical colleagues.
- Building trust and bringing people with you through change.
You do not need to be a deep specialist in every technical area. You do need to be confident as a leader working across data, systems, technology, suppliers and organisational change.
Why Tommy’s?
This is a strategic role with real scope to shape the future. You will join a mission-led organisation with ambitious plans, a strong platform for growth, and a commitment to using data-based evidence to drive greater impact.
Tommy’s also has a distinctive operating model, including research, partnerships and ownership of the London Landmarks Half Marathon, giving the role exposure to both charity impact and commercial activity.
We offer hybrid working, flexible working options, 25 days’ holiday plus bank holidays, enhanced parental leave, wellbeing support, pension, life insurance (*4) and personal development.
We discourage a long-hours culture and value quality, focus and impact.
Inclusion
Tommy’s is committed to building an inclusive organisation that reflects the communities we serve. We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds, identities and experiences, including those underrepresented in senior data and technology leadership.
You do not need to meet every desirable criterion to apply. If you are excited by the role and aligned with our mission, please send your application to Ivy Rock Partners for a confidential discussion.
Reasonable adjustments are available throughout the recruitment process.

Contract: Permanent, Full-time
Salary: £47,725 – £54,095 per annum

About Global Health Partnerships
Global Health Partnerships is a UK-registered charity with nearly four decades of experience connecting NHS institutions, diaspora health workers, Royal Colleges, and government partners with counterparts across Africa, Asia, and beyond. We strengthen health systems, build the evidence base for UK investment in global health, and work at the interface of domestic and international health policy. Our network includes 256 confirmed MCH health workers across 32 institutions, established relationships with RCOG, RCM, RCN, and NHS England, and a track record of supporting the APPG on Global Health and Security. We are a trusted, non-partisan intermediary between UK clinical communities and policymakers.
Why this is an exceptional opportunity
This is a rare and timely role for a senior external affairs and communications professional who wants to make a direct, measurable difference to global health. You will be joining Global Health Partnerships at a pivotal moment, as we launch an ambitious advocacy programme, with the backing of a major foundation and a network of frontline NHS clinicians and health institutions.
This is not a general communications role. It is a specialist advocacy and policy influence position, focused on translating evidence and health worker experience into parliamentary and media impact. If you want to shape how UK politicians and the public think about global health and see that shift lead to real changes in funding and policy, this is the role for you.
Job purpose
Reporting to the Deputy Chief Executive, you will lead GHP’s external affairs and communications function across the full range of the organisation’s strategic priorities. This includes designing and executing GHP’s advocacy strategy for priority programmes — with the Every Mother, Everywhere MCH programme as the flagship — while also building GHP’s broader profile as the leading UK voice on NHS institutional partnerships, health workforce policy, and the mutual benefit case for UK investment in global health. You will manage GHP’s relationships with key stakeholders in parliament, government, and the media, and ensure that GHP’s full portfolio of work is visible, compelling, and connected to the policy arguments that matter most to funders and decision-makers.
You will oversee GHP’s secretariat relationship with the APPG on Global Health and Security, develop and support networks of health worker and diaspora advocates, lead media and parliamentary engagement, and coordinate a coalition of civil society, clinical, and community organisations around shared advocacy priorities. With the communications team, you will also work closely with the fundraising and programmes teams to ensure GHP’s communications and public profile actively support income diversification and donor engagement across institutional, trust, and corporate funding streams.
While the immediate priority is our Maternal and Child Health Advocacy programme and its parliamentary and media objectives, this role carries wider organisational responsibility for GHP’s positioning, reputation, and voice in public discourse on global health. The postholder will line manage the Communications Manager and be accountable for the coherence of GHP’s external communications across all channels and programmes.
For full details on the role, including the Person Specification please look at our job pack.
What we offer:
As well as your salary which is paid monthly, you'll also get:
- Flexible and hybrid working
- 25 days annual leave plus three days off between Christmas and New Year
- Annual learning and development allowance
- Employee Assistance Programme
- 5% employer pension contribution when an employee contributes 3%
How to apply:
Please apply with a CV and a covering letter of no more than two pages by 10th July 2026.
Your covering letter should address the following: why you are interested in this role at this moment; how your experience of external affairs is relevant to GHP’s organisational priorities; what you understand to be the strongest argument for UK investment in global health and how you would build political and public support for it.
GHP is committed to equity, diversity, and inclusion in our recruitment. We particularly welcome applications from people with lived experience of the communities and health systems our work engages with.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.

At We Are Survivors, every role exists for one reason: to support male survivors of sexual harms and the people who stand alongside them. While each position has a different focus, they all contribute to helping survivors feel safer, more connected, and better able to move forward in their lives.
The ISVA supports male survivors throughout the criminal justice process, from making an initial report through to the conclusion of any investigation or court proceedings. Alongside providing specialist advocacy within the criminal justice system, the role ensures survivors understand their options, have their voices heard, and receive consistent emotional and practical support throughout their journey. The ISVA also works holistically, recognising that recovery extends beyond the legal process and helping survivors access the wider support they need. We are particularly keen to hear from men who want to support other men through the criminal justice process. We will provide training for the right candidate.
You'll be someone who is comfortable working with trauma and has experience in mental health, support, or community engagement. We're particularly interested in hearing from people who have worked with men, sexual harms, and their loved ones, but we also recognise that great people bring transferable skills and different experiences. If you're committed to learning, building trusting relationships, and making a meaningful difference, we'd love to hear from you.
At We Are Survivors, our values shape how we work every day. Transparency underpins our relationships, creating the openness that abuse so often takes away. Integrity is at the heart of everything we do, recognising that trust is fundamental to healing. Understanding means we take every survivor and their experiences seriously, meeting people without judgment and with genuine compassion. Being Responsive means we're committed not only to supporting survivors today, but also to predicting, educating, and preventing sexual harm against boys and men in the future.
If you're passionate about creating a society where no male survivor is left behind, and you share these values, this could be the role for you.
Why Join Us?
· a competitive salary.
· annual leave package with incremental rises plus bank holidays.
· company sick pay.
· Birthday annual leave.
· monthly clinical supervision.
· pension contribution.
· and a range of discount and benefit programmes.
Apply by sending your CV and a short supporting statement (max 2 pages).
In your supporting statement, we want you to answer these two questions:
• How can your experience support male survivors to thrive?
• How do you meet the role profile?
Ensure you answer ALL elements in your CV or supporting statement.
Interviews are expected to take place on 27th and 28th July; we reserve the right to interview and close the recruitment process early if satisfactory applicants.
