Who we are
For nearly 90 years, Yateley Industries has supported disabled adults to live, work, learn and play as part of an inclusive community.
Yateley is founded on the principle that disabled people should enjoy the same opportunities as everyone else. We have created a unique ‘village within a village’ environment where people can live independently, gain meaningful employment, learn new skills and connect with their community.
Today, we employ 58 disabled adults in paid supported work, provide safe and affordable accommodation and run a growing range of community and employability programmes.
Our impact is significant. Independent analysis shows that our model generates £5 in social value for every £1 invested in us.
Our next chapter
We are at a critical moment in our development. With demand rising, a 47-unit supported housing estate ready for redevelopment, new commercial opportunities emerging in our factory and increased national interest in supported employment, we are ready to accelerate our plans for growth.
To deliver this, we are appointing a Deputy CEO for Operations and Enterprise to provide strategic operational leadership and drive commercial growth across the organisation. This new role has been created to strengthen our senior team, improve our operational resilience and enable our CEO to focus on external influence, partnerships and national advocacy.
Why this role matters
Supported employment changes lives. National policy is shifting, employers are calling for inclusive recruitment pipelines, and our model provides a return on investment and makes a difference. With a 90-year heritage, a waiting list of people who want to work with us and growing national visibility, this is a rare opportunity to play a central role in transforming a charity with extraordinary potential.
Leading operations, income and enterprise
This is a significant role for us, and you will:
- Lead four major workstreams: intensive housing management, factory commercialisation, tendering and employability and community hub income growth
- Strengthen operational systems, quality assurance, safeguarding, governance and performance monitoring
- Build commercial and social enterprise capability, setting clear targets, developing pricing models and securing new contracts
- Lead the housing transformation programme, including the Intensive Housing Management application, estate planning and recruitment of housing and maintenance posts
- Provide a clear and motivating presence for frontline staff, disabled employees and programme participants
Your aptitude, values and aspiration for your own growth are what we are primarily focused on. We do not expect you to be an expert in every area on day one. You will be empowered to develop and grow, and will have access to specialist support, particularly on housing and tendering.
What matters most is your commitment to supporting disabled people, your willingness to learn how to lead in new areas and your desire to ensure that Yateley can grow and help even more disabled people thrive.
