As Innovation Strategy Manager you will lead in helping Battersea learn, experiment and develop new solutions to drive forward our strategic priorities, keeping us relevant, future-focused and generating ever greater impact.

All work is delivered through creativity, collaboration within and outside of Battersea and a deep understanding of our target audiences, balancing ambition and pragmatism.

Why the role exists:

This is a rare opportunity to lead in helping Battersea learn, experiment and develop new solutions to positively impact the lives of cats, dogs, and their owners for years to come. You’ll bring strong strategic thinking, innovation expertise, service design, and leadership skills to an environment focused on meaningful social impact, working alongside a team of smart, compassionate, and experienced colleagues.

This role focuses on broad, organisation-wide innovation - spanning our services, operations, supporter offering, and income generation - with a clear focus on delivering outcomes for animals and the people who care for them. It is not a specialist digital or fundraising role; instead, it centres on identifying the right problems and shaping effective responses. While some initiatives will involve digital elements (and an understanding of this is useful), delivery is carried out by specialist teams both in-house and externally.

Success in this role means identifying high-impact opportunities, aligning stakeholders around them, and ensuring they are taken forward effectively - supporting pilots and implementation where appropriate.

What we can offer you:

In return for your commitment to our cause and to recognise the value of our employees, Battersea offers a range of benefits to support the wellbeing of our employees. These include:

• 28 days of annual leave (plus 8 days paid public holidays) per year.
• Discounted gym memberships and cycle to work schemes.
• Employee Assistance Programme and access to Wellbeing Resources.
• Generous pension contributions - up to 10% employer contribution.
• Free healthcare cash plan, where you can claim for a range of treatment including dental, optical, physiotherapy, chiropody and acupuncture every year.
• Annual interest-free season ticket loans.

We are also committed to providing learning and development to our employees. During your time with us, we provide support for your professional and career development, including access to digital and in-person training programmes, leadership and management training, mentoring and much more.

Our hybrid working model:

We operate a 50% onsite hybrid working model, with our office-based staff splitting their time between site based and home working. This enables our office-based staff to balance the benefits of home working with onsite collaboration and maintaining a connection to our cause.

Diversity and inclusion:

We are committed to providing a welcoming and inclusive experience for all staff, volunteers and trustees and those hoping to join us. We operate an anonymised shortlisting process and actively seek to ensure our process is fair and equitable for all.

We understand the value of diverse voices, perspectives, and experiences to help us deliver even more for our dogs and cats, and we welcome applicants from all sections of the community.

As a Disability Confident Committed Employer we will ask about any adjustments you may need at application and/or interview stage, and if you are offered a role with us, we’ll talk to you about any workplace adjustments you may need to help you perform at your best. Greyscale copies of the recruitment pack are also available on request.

More about us:

At Battersea, we aim to never turn away a dog or cat in need of help. We give each one lots of love, expert care and get to know their characters and quirks so we can find them a new home that’s just right for them. Join us and help us be here for every dog and cat, wherever they are, for as long as they need us.

Acceptable use of AI:

At Battersea, we value expertise. We recognise each candidate that applies to us will have a range of expertise they can offer us, so we want to hear about this in your own words. We understand the support that generative artificial intelligence (AI) software can offer but it can also lead to numerous applications presenting as generic and impersonal. This makes it difficult to gain understanding of your unique experience.

To best showcase yourself, we encourage you to write your responses without the assistance of AI. If you require the use of AI software to aid in completing your application, we ask you use the generative responses as a prompt for writing your answers and avoid copying and pasting. You must also ensure the information presented in your application accurately reflects your experience. 

Closing date: 22nd September 2026

All applications must be submitted before the closing date advertised. We reserve the right to close the vacancy early if a high volume of applications is received.

The Foundation for Jewish Heritage is seeking to engage an experienced Learning and Engagement Consultant to support their project Preserving Jewish Heritage, Promoting the Hidden Jewish Story in the year-long Development Phase of its project and for the first six months (of a five-year programme) of the Delivery Phase of the project. The Consultant will support and advise the Synagogues in this first pilot on activities/outreach and education, ultimately creating a framework for future use as a core part of this programme.

This project aims to address that gap.

Are you an experienced and highly organised professional who enjoys making sure an organisation runs smoothly and wants to make a real difference?

Kapella’s mission is to build better relationships and improve the wellbeing of families and individuals. We provide accessible and affordable services, including counselling, family mediation, training and domestic abuse programmes across Birmingham, the Black Country and the wider Midlands area. Our work includes self-paying clients as well as funded projects delivered through contracts, grants and partnerships.

We are looking for an Administration and Operations Manager to lead and strengthen the day to day operations that underpin our services and help us prepare for our next phase of development. Working closely with the CEO and service managers, you will oversee the running of the organisation across our two main premises and other community venues, as well as manage the administration and appointments functions. This role provides the operational support to our service delivery, ensuring that processes, resources and systems are well organised and focused on quality, sustainability and a positive user experience.

We are entering an exciting phase of growth and are looking to expand our services and extend our reach across Birmingham, the Black Country and surrounding areas. This new role is central to these plans.

Initially, the role will be hands-on, with responsibility for recruiting and training additional administrative staff, fully opening our main premises and moving to a hybrid model of online and face-to-face counselling. You will also support the implementation of new online appointment and case management systems as well as updated policies and procedures.

As we grow there is significant opportunity for development, allowing you to contribute to how our services are delivered, strengthen our team and help us meet the increasing need for our services.

Based at our Birmingham office, you will be supported by a small administration team that will grow. This role will require some flexibility in working hours to meet service needs, including working at other centres from time to time.

What you’ll do

• Oversee the day-to-day operational running of the Birmingham and Wolverhampton centres and community venues.
• Lead and manage the administration team, including recruitment, training and volunteer coordination.
• Manage appointments, service utilisation, waiting times and payments.
• Streamline processes and systems to improve efficiency, consistency and client experience.
• Support the implementation of new technology, online appointments and case management systems.
• Ensure premises are safe, functional, welcoming and fit-for-purpose.
• Monitor service activity, performance, budgets and KPIs, providing clear reports for management and funders.
• Promote a positive, inclusive and supportive workplace culture.
• Work closely with service managers and the CEO to ensure operational activity supports organisational priorities.
• Oversee HR systems and administration.
• Ensure compliance with HR, health and safety and organisational policies.

What we’re looking for

• Proven experience in administration and operational management, ideally in the third sector, health or community services.
• Significant administrative experience, including the use of databases and case management systems.
• Experience monitoring activity, performance, budgets and KPIs, with the ability to use information to inform decisions.
• Experience developing and embedding effective processes and systems.
• Confidence in implementing new technologies and supporting teams through change.
• Experience overseeing premises and creating safe, fit-for-purpose and welcoming environments.
• Understanding of the client journey and accessibility, with experience improving service utilisation and engagement.
• HR and health and safety knowledge, with experience supporting staff wellbeing and compliance.
• Strong leadership, communication and relationship-building skills, with a commitment to inclusion and equity.
• A practical, proactive and solutions-focused approach, with the ability to balance strategic thinking with hands-on delivery.

Why join Kapella?

• Play a key role in expanding essential services to families and individuals across Birmingham and the Black Country.
• Be part of a passionate, supportive and values-driven team.
• Have a significant opportunity to shape operational processes and develop into a senior leadership role.
• Benefit from ongoing development, 25 days’ annual leave, professional development opportunities, a 5% employer contribution pension scheme and staff wellbeing support.
