Merseyside

Merseyside Society for Deaf People (MSDP) has been supporting and empowering Deaf, Deafblind and hard-of-hearing people since 1864. We are one of the oldest deaf charities in the country and an important part of the Deaf community on Merseyside.

We are a local charity with a national outlook. Campaigning, advocacy and practical support are all central to who we are. We work to advance equality for Deaf, Deafblind, and hard-of-hearing people by raising awareness of the barriers they face and providing accessible, high-quality services that promote independence, inclusion, and well-being.

MSDP is a “lived experience”- led organisation that works in partnership with Deaf, Deafblind, and hard-of-hearing communities to design and deliver services that reflect real needs and lived realities.

You will lead teams with compassion and purpose, embedding Deaf culture and equality at the heart of everything we do. As our ambassador, you’ll also influence partners, funders, and policymakers to broaden our reach and impact.

To be our next Chief Executive you will bring strategic leadership experience with a proven record of accountability, financial stewardship, strong governance, and organisational growth. You’re a confident communicator and influencer, comfortable building partnerships and leading campaigns. Above all, you share our values of inclusion, integrity, and community.
