We provide inclusive services to individuals of all faiths and none, without prejudice or discrimination.

Each year, we support several hundred students through our free, weekly English classes, welcoming learners from over 40 nationalities. Our work is made possible by a dedicated team of volunteers, whose commitment is essential to delivering our services. In partnership with local churches, we provide a safe and supportive environment to learn English and understand local culture, alongside a wide range of activities that build confidence, strengthen community connections, and promote health, well-being, and integration.

The ‘+’ represents the additional support we offer to help students successfully navigate life in the UK, much of which is delivered in collaboration with a strong network of other service providers across Norfolk. As a small, local charity, we are agile and responsive- able to quickly adapt our lessons, courses, and services to meet the evolving needs of those we serve.

As Finance and Operations Manager, you will play a central role in our organisation- contributing to strategic decision-making while enabling frontline staff to deliver high-quality services. You will help ensure English+ remains financially secure, maintains strong donor relationships, and continues to be a leading community-based ESOL provider in Norfolk.

• The ability to be flexible and adaptable, maintaining a caring yet professional approach, thinking creatively under pressure, and responding calmly to unexpected changes.
