Prospectus is pleased to be partnering with a community-led social enterprise in London’s South Bank to recruit for a newly created Governance Manager role on a part-time basis, 2.5 days per week.

Reporting to the Chief Operating Officer, the Governance Manager provides specialist leadership for governance, statutory compliance, regulatory assurance and governance policy management across the organisation. This role sets the governance framework, maintains compliance standards, advises senior leaders and Boards, and ensures escalation of governance, legal, constitutional or regulatory issues where required. The Governance Manager also leads Board and committee governance administration, including scheduling, meeting logistics, formal minutes, action tracking and formal governance records, working alongside the EA and Governance Co-ordinator, where CEO/COO diary coordination, leadership administration or wider organisational coordination is required.

The successful candidate will bring experience of governance and compliance having worked in a similar role previously. This includes experience of maintaining governance frameworks and registers as well as supporting Boards and senior level stakeholders. You will have excellent written and verbal communications skills with a strong attention to detail and organisational skills. You will also bring a passion for the mission with a drive to help streamline and improve processes and systems.

To apply please click through to the job advert on the Prospectus website and submit your CV and a 1-2 page supporting statement. The statement should outline your motivation for joining the organisation and why you feel this role would be a good fit for you. You should also bring out examples to showcase your skills and experience in relation to the job description (click on Appointment Brief button on the Prospectus website for the full job pack)

As a specialist Recruitment Practice Prospectus is committed to building inclusive and diverse organisations, and welcome applications from all sections of the community. Prospectus invest in your journey as a candidate and are committed to supporting you in your application.

You’ll be at the helm of a busy, welcoming centre that brings residential stays, day visits, camping and outdoor activities to guiding groups, schools, youth groups, corporate teams, families and friends. That variety is part of what makes the role so rewarding. No two days look the same, and that’s exactly the point.
This is a senior role with real scope and real responsibility. You’ll lead a team, set the tone for high standards across the site, manage the practical realities of running a working centre, and help shape its future direction in line with Girlguiding Anglia’s values and ambitions. You’ll have the chance to think strategically about where the centre goes next while staying hands on with the day to day running that keeps a place like Hautbois thriving.
We’re after someone positive, proactive and organised, who leads with warmth as much as with structure. You’ll need to be comfortable holding multiple priorities at once, calm under pressure, and genuinely motivated by creating great experiences for the people who come through the centre’s doors. If you enjoy variety, thrive on responsibility and want your work to have a visible, lasting impact, this role offers all of that in abundance.
The role is based at Hautbois, right in the Norfolk countryside. Flexible working may be possible where it suits the business, though some evenings and weekends will be part of the job given the nature of a residential site. The centre isn’t easily reached by public transport, so a car and full driving licence are essential for commuting and the occasional meeting further afield.
In return, you’ll get free parking, office drinks and snacks, a holiday allowance that grows with your length of service, and modern IT and working facilities to support you in the role.
This role might also suit candidates with backgrounds as an activities manager, camp manager, adventure manager, outdoor learning manager or residential centre manager.
