About Us:

For 60 years, RESPONSE has been pioneering mental health supported housing services for over 500 adults and hundreds of Young People across West Berkshire, Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire.

Mental health and multiple disadvantage is the common thread through all our services. We deliver this through enabling individuals to live safely and well in communities, offering housing, psychologically informed care, life skills and support in developing social connections. We provide a sliding scale of support - from prevention interventions in local communities to intensive support for serious mental illness in our CQC registered care home. Our approach positions us as a support and care organisation first with housing as an enabler, not the product.

Our AMBITION is illustrated in our numerous NHS and Council contracts and turnover of around £18m, meaning we’re well-placed to deliver life changing services in the community, with our high quality support and stable homes.

Who we are looking for:

You would  play a vital role in the leadership of our fantastic organisation ensuring effective delivery of our strategy. A genuine interest and commitment to the organisation's Mission, Values and Strategic Goals is essential along with an understanding of compliance, risk management and operational best practice.

We are seeking a few individuals with experience at a senior leadership level in at any of the following areas:

Housing, Accommodation and Tenancy Management

• Knowledge of supported housing operations
• Understanding of housing regulations, compliance and safeguarding
• Experience managing tenancies or accommodation services

Asset and Property Management

• Oversight of property portfolios or maintenance strategies
• Experience with capital projects, repairs, and long-term asset planning
• Understanding of health & safety and building compliance

IT and Digital Transformation

• Digital transfrmation, cloud systems, or data strategy
• Cybersecurity, infrmation governance, or digital service delivery
• Experience mdernising organisational infrastructure or digital tools

What you will do:

• Ensure legal, regulatory and constitutional compliance: including charity law, governing documents, relevant legislation, and integrity in decision-making.
• Provide strategic leadership oversight: setting mission, strategic goals, overseeing key organisational decisions and performance.
• Oversee governance structures and risk management: ensuring appropriate systems of control, risk frameworks and delegation arrangements are in place.
• Actively engage with the organisation: building relationships, visiting services, participating in committees, and contributing skills, ideas, and time.

As a large organisation, we need Trustees who can invest a suitable amount of time, on a flexible basis, each month. As a guide, a Trustee could be investing around 5 hours a month to RESPONSE (to include the formal board meetings, which take place bi-monthly). However, if you are unable to commit to this time, we would still like to speak to you about what you can offer!

How to Apply:

Response will continue to build an inclusive culture that encourages, supports, and celebrates the diverse voices of our employees and individuals accessing our services. We are proud of our commitment to diversity and inclusion and welcome applicants from under represented backgrounds.

For more than 30 years, War Child has been driven by a single goal: to ensure a safe future for every child affected by war. We work in some of the world’s most challenging contexts, reaching children as quickly as possible when conflict breaks out and remaining long after the cameras have gone. Through protection, education, community support and advocacy, we help children heal, learn and rebuild their lives. One child caught up in conflict is one too many, and we exist to make sure they are never forgotten.

We are now seeking an Interim Director of Finance & IT (maternity cover) to join our Leadership Group at a pivotal moment for the organisation. Reporting directly to our CEO, this role is about continuity, momentum and leadership. You will take responsibility for two critical functions and play a central role in shaping how War Child UK is funded, governed and enabled to deliver impact, both independently and as part of the wider War Child Alliance.

This is a role for someone who wants their expertise to matter. You will lead our finance and IT functions, ensuring our systems, processes and data provide the clarity and confidence needed to make bold, informed decisions. Your insight into income, cost and performance will directly influence how we invest, grow and maximise our fundraising potential.

Alongside this, you will play a key role in long-term financial planning and cross-Alliance collaboration, helping to build robust frameworks that support sustainable growth and accountability. Working with fellow directors, you will help steward the organisation as a whole, ensuring War Child UK remains resilient, ambitious and ready to meet the scale of the need we exist to address.

You will be a qualified accountant with significant strategic and operational experience. While prior international development experience is not essential, you will need to demonstrate the ability to build trusted relationships across cultures and geographies. Experience in a complex, fundraising-led organisation will be highly advantageous.

We are keen to hear from both experienced directors and senior leaders who are ready to step into their first executive role. If you are motivated by purpose, thrive in complex environments and want your leadership to create real change, we would love to hear from you.
