About Starlight

Starlight is the national charity for children's play in healthcare.

We believe that healthcare should be a more humane and child-centred experience for every child. We work across the UK to champion the importance of play during treatment, care and recovery, supporting children, parents and carers, and healthcare professionals.

Play is integral to children's wellbeing. It can help children experience greater agency, autonomy and control during healthcare, express thoughts and feelings, build resilience and make healthcare settings feel more welcoming and safe. But play is still too often overlooked or treated as an optional extra within children's healthcare.

Our ambition is to end preventable trauma in children's healthcare.

Our new strategy is taking Starlight into an important next phase. We want to build on the expertise, evidence, influence, partnerships and brand positioning we have developed over recent years and use them to create greater impact for children and families.

That means becoming a stronger voice for change: increasing understanding of children's experiences of healthcare, influencing the systems and people who shape children's healthcare, strengthening our relationships with supporters and partners, and communicating with greater clarity, consistency and impact.

Our brand and communications have an increasingly important and broad role to play. We need to tell powerful stories, challenge assumptions, engage people emotionally and intellectually, and make it clear why children's healthcare needs to change.

This is an exciting time to join Starlight and help shape how our purpose, personality and ambition are experienced by the people who matter most.

Our Strategy and the Creative Designer

Our ambition is to influence how children's healthcare is understood and experienced.

To do that successfully, we need communications and creative work that is distinctive, compelling and purposeful. We need to communicate with different audiences in ways that help them feel, understand and ultimately do something differently. As our Creative Designer, you will play an important role in making that happen.

Working as part of the Influence, Insight & Communications team and reporting to the Communications & Brand Manager, you will develop ideas and produce high-quality work across campaigns, fundraising, influencing, digital communications, events and organisational communications.

You will also help to evolve how Starlight looks, feels and expresses itself, ensuring that our creative work is distinctive, consistent and recognisably Starlight.

You will work closely with our Digital Content Creator, who leads the production of channel-native video and social content. You will contribute visual concepts, campaign identities, graphics, storyboards and brand treatments to help this content feel coherent, distinctive and recognisably Starlight.

You will help Starlight make effective use of new creative technologies, including AI, where they can improve efficiency, enable experimentation or extend our creative capability. We want to use technology to help us work smarter and create more, without compromising creative judgement, authenticity or quality.

You will work with colleagues across Starlight and, where appropriate, with external creative specialists to ensure our communications are engaging, accessible, authentic and effective.

We are looking for more than an accountant!

Place Matters is a small, entrepreneurial charity punching above its weight.Yes you need be a qualified accountant who will “do” as well as “oversee” but we want you to also be part of our mission to enable community-led, place-based change to thrive. You will provide strategic and practical leadership across finance, organisational operations, risk, governance and compliance. We want you to contribute beyond your functional portfolio - support organisational strategy, planning, culture, partnerships and fundraising and translate Place Matters’ ambitions into deliverable and financially sustainable plans.

Please apply if you are someone colleagues and Trustees can trust to make sound decisions and if you are a team player - confident and with strong opinions, but low ego and collegiate. You need to have the ability to work at speed through ambiguity and uncertainty, remain calm under pressure, and stay solutions focused.

We'll conduct interviews on 22 and 23 October 2026.

Reporting to: Chief Executive
Contract: 12-month fixed-term contract
Salary: £45,000–£48,000 per annum, depending on experience

About the role

This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in an important period of development and transformation for West London Synagogue.

Working closely with the executive team, the postholder will provide coordination and project management across a range of organisational priorities and will play a key role in supporting the delivery of the wider transformation programme.

The role will bring together project management, organisational performance, impact measurement, reporting and continuous improvement.

The successful candidate will help turn strategic priorities into practical plans, ensure projects remain on track, and provide clear information to senior leaders and the Board about progress, performance and impact.

This is a broad and varied role for someone who enjoys working across an organisation, bringing structure to complexity and helping people turn good ideas into effective delivery.

Key Responsibilities

1. Transformation and Organisational Priorities

• Play a key role in coordinating and supporting the organisation's transformation programme.
• Work with the Chief Executive, the finance and resources director and senior colleagues to translate strategic priorities into clear plans, actions, milestones and deliverables.
• Track progress against agreed priorities and identify risks, delays, dependencies and resource pressures.
• Identify connections and opportunities for collaboration between different projects and programmes.
• Support colleagues in embedding new processes, systems and ways of working arising from the transformation programme.
• Ensure that agreed decisions are translated into clear actions, ownership and follow-through.
• Support a culture of continuous improvement, learning and accountability.

The postholder will not be expected to manage every change initiative directly. Their role will be to provide structure, coordination and visibility across the transformation programme, working with colleagues who own individual projects and areas of work.

2. Project Management

• Plan, coordinate and deliver a range of organisational projects in line with agreed priorities and timelines.
• Develop proportionate project plans setting out objectives, milestones, deliverables, responsibilities, dependencies and measures of success.
• Coordinate internal teams, volunteers, partners and external stakeholders where required.
• Facilitate project meetings, workshops and reviews.
• Maintain clear project documentation, actions and decision logs.

Projects are likely to vary in scale and nature and may include organisational improvement, systems and process development, governance, member services, operational change, programme development and cross-team initiatives.

3. Organisational Performance and Data

• Collect, analyse and interpret data to understand project and organisational performance and impact
• Develop clear and proportionate dashboards and management information.
• Identify trends, gaps, risks and areas requiring attention.
• Work with colleagues to establish meaningful KPIs and measures of success.
• Ensure information is accurate, appropriately managed and compliant with relevant data protection requirements.

4. Board and Senior Leadership Reporting

• Coordinate the preparation of clear, concise and meaningful reports for the Board.
• Establish and maintain an effective reporting timetable.
• Track actions and decisions arising from Board and committee meetings and ensure appropriate follow-up.

The emphasis will be on insight rather than simply reporting activity — helping leaders and trustees understand what is happening, why it matters and where action is required.

5. Governance, Compliance and Policies

• Maintain and regularly update the organisational compliance log, duties and mitigation plans.
• Monitor progress against compliance requirements and highlight emerging risks.
• Support colleagues to ensure compliance actions are followed through.
• Develop, review and update organisational policies and operational procedures.

6. Stakeholder Engagement and Coordination

• Build effective working relationships across the organisation.
• Work collaboratively with staff, volunteers, trustees, partners and external stakeholders.
• Bring people together where projects or priorities cross organisational boundaries.
• Facilitate meetings, workshops and project reviews where required.
• Communicate progress, challenges, risks and successes clearly and appropriately.

Person Specification

Essential Skills and Experience

• A practical, proactive and solutions-focused approach.
• Excellent attention to detail while retaining an understanding of the bigger picture.
• The ability to work independently, take ownership and use good judgement.
• Confidence working in an environment where priorities can change and not everything is fully defined.

• Experience supporting an organisational transformation or change programme.
• Experience working in a charity, synagogue, community organisation, social enterprise or other purpose-led organisation.
• Experience working with Boards, trustees or governance committees.
• Experience developing organisational dashboards or management information.
• Experience in impact measurement, monitoring and evaluation.
• Knowledge of project management methodologies such as PRINCE2 or Agile.

We help high-impact nonprofits run brilliantly - now we need someone to do the same for us. You'll own Impact Ops' finances, payroll, contracts and compliance, reporting straight to the founder.

Summary

Impact Ops is looking for a Finance & Operations Manager to join our team. This is a newly created, internal-facing role: rather than working on client portfolios, you’ll own the financial and operational machinery of Impact Ops itself. The salary range for this role is £50,000–£60,000 GBP, depending on experience, with flexibility for exceptional candidates.

We’re looking for a qualified accountant who is genuinely happy to be hands-on, someone who can handle a corporation tax return and a contracting in the same afternoon and see both as worth doing well. If you want breadth, autonomy, and a role where you can see the whole organisation from the inside, we’d love to hear from you. The deadline to apply is 11 October 2026.

About Impact Ops

Impact Ops is an independent organization providing finance and operations support to high-impact nonprofits. Our services include bookkeeping, financial reporting, accounts payable, payroll, recruitment, entity setup, due diligence, and systems implementation. We serve over 50 clients globally, spanning cause areas including global health, animal welfare, AI safety, and climate.

We’re a remote-first team based across the world. We’re looking for motivated, detail-oriented people who care about doing good work in service of organizations trying to do good in the world.

The role

Everything we do for our clients, we also have to do for ourselves — and to date that work has been spread across the founder, the finance team, and external accountants. This role brings it together under one owner.

As Finance & Operations Manager, you’ll run Impact Ops’ own finances, company secretarial obligations, payroll, invoicing, contracting, and HR administration. You’ll report to Joshua Axford (Founder & CEO) and work closely with Eric (Head of Finance), who leads our client-facing finance function.

It’s a broad role with real trust attached. You’ll have visibility into every commercially sensitive part of the business, and you’ll be the person we rely on to keep it running properly.

Finance

• Owning Impact Ops’ bookkeeping, month-end close, and management accounts
• Preparing annual accounts
• Cash flow forecasting and budget tracking
• Accounts receivable and accounts payable: raising client invoices, chasing payment, processing supplier invoices and payment runs
• VAT returns and corporation tax submissions

Company secretarial & compliance

• Confirmation statements, annual returns, and Companies House filings
• Maintaining statutory registers and corporate records
• Insurance renewals across the group, including professional indemnity, private medical and employers’ liability

Payroll

• Running end-to-end monthly payroll for our UK team, including RTI submissions, PAYE/NI, and pension auto-enrolment
• Coordinating payments for team members engaged internationally across several jurisdictions
• Year-end tasks including P60s and P11Ds

Contracts & client administration

• Drafting, issuing, and tracking client Service Level Agreements
• Managing employment contracts and contractor agreements for the team
• Maintaining a reliable view of contractual obligations, renewal dates, and scope changes

HR administration

• Onboarding and offboarding administration
• Maintaining people records and keeping our HR systems accurate
• Leave tracking, benefits administration, and equipment provisioning

About you

You’ll need to have:

• A recognised accounting qualification (ACA, ACCA, CIMA, or equivalent) — or qualified by experience with a track record that speaks for itself
• Experience running or providing accounting support for the finance function of a small business, or a comparable breadth of ownership within a larger one
• UK payroll experience, or the confidence to take it on with support
• Genuine comfort with administrative work: this role is hands on and we’d rather be honest about that than have you discover it in month two
• Strong judgement about confidentiality and discretion — you’ll see everything
• The ability to work independently in a remote environment and set your own priorities
• A genuine desire to have a positive impact with your career

It would be a bonus if you also have:

• Practice background: experience in an accountancy practice, particularly with company secretarial work
• Contract administration experience: comfort reading and drafting commercial agreements
• Familiarity with our tool stack: Xero, Ramp, Deel, Apron, or similar
• A process improvement mindset: you spot inefficiencies and take initiative to address them
• Commercial exposure: experience with pricing, proposals, or commercial analysis — not required for the role as scoped, but useful as it develops

Compensation & logistics

• Salary: £50,000–£60,000 GBP, depending on experience. There may be flexibility for exceptional candidates.
• Location: Remote, but we have a strong preference for candidates based in the UK and specifically the South West. This role involves periodic in-person co-working with the CEO, and the trust-level nature of the work benefits from face-to-face time.
• Hours: Full-time, or part-time (at least 3 days a week or equivalent) depending on candidate preference
• Start date: 1 December 2026 preferred, but we’re flexible for the right person — a Q1 2027 start is fine if you have a longer notice period
• Application deadline: 11 October 2026

Growth & Progression

We’re deliberately hiring above the immediate need. The brief described here is where the role starts, not where we expect it to stay: as Impact Ops scales, we anticipate significant operational leadership responsibility sitting with whoever takes this on, and we’d rather find that person now than replace them later.

We’re looking for someone who wants to grow with the business.

Our benefits include:

• Prioritised health & wellbeing: Private medical, vision, and dental insurance; up to 2 weeks’ paid sick leave; a generous mental health allowance
• Flexible working: Set your own schedule (with some overlap with colleagues as needed); remote workspace covered if needed
• Generous vacation: 25 days’ holiday per year plus public holidays — we encourage you to use the full allowance
• Professional development: A generous annual allowance for CPD, plus on-the-job growth and clear progression pathways
• Retirement: Pension with 10% employer contribution
• Parental leave: Up to 14 weeks fully paid, up to 52 weeks total; financial support for childcare where needed
• Equipment: Full remote setup covered (laptop, monitors, chair, etc.)
• Team retreats: Two in-person staff retreats per year

How to apply

To apply, please submit your CV and a short cover letter explaining your interest in the role and relevant experience. 

We’re committed to building a diverse and inclusive team and warmly encourage applications from candidates of all backgrounds.

Diversity and inclusion

We’re aware that factors like gender, race, and socioeconomic background can affect people’s willingness to apply for roles for which they meet some but not all the suggested attributes. We’d especially like to encourage people from underrepresented backgrounds to express interest.

There’s no such thing as a “perfect” candidate. If you’re on the fence about applying because you’re unsure whether you’re qualified, we’d encourage you to apply.

If you require any adjustments to the application process, such as accessibility accommodations, additional preparation time, or other, please let us know. We’re happy to support your needs and adjust the application process.

EASST is an international NGO promoting road safety and sustainable mobility across Eastern Europe and Central Asia.

We believe local voices are essential to saving lives and bringing lasting change so we form long term partnerships with local civil society organisations, uniting their on-the-ground knowledge with national and international expertise to deliver evidence-based solutions that are grounded in the local reality.

Across our region, fatality rates are more than twice the European average and can cost up to 4% GDP, yet road safety still doesn't get the priority or investment it needs.

Today, rapidly escalating vehicle numbers are straining urban infrastructure, challenging existing road safety frameworks, and contributing to poor air quality and higher carbon emissions.

Our projects are focused on long-term change, connecting the dots between road safety and sustainable mobility and supporting communities in the transition toward safer, more inclusive transport networks that reduce casualties, strengthen climate resilience, and support sustainable economic growth.

EASST also operates EASST Expertise Ltd, an international road safety consultancy and wholly owned trading subsidiary. EASST Expertise draws on a wide network of specialists to support, advise and manage road safety projects across the world, with all surplus revenues returned to support EASST's charitable work.

Why join EASST?

EASST is a small organisation, and this is a varied role with significant responsibility. You will have the opportunity to work across the full project cycle, from developing new ideas and proposals through to delivery, evaluation and learning. You will work directly with our partners across the region, international experts and major funders, and have real scope to influence how our programmes develop.

Working in a small team means being prepared to get involved across different areas of our work and to take responsibility when needed. In return, the role offers considerable autonomy and variety, and the opportunity to see the direct impact of your work.

Role overview

As Programmes Manager, you will play a central role in EASST’s small team, managing a varied portfolio of road safety and sustainable mobility projects across Eastern Europe and Central Asia. Reporting to the Director General, you will take responsibility for projects across their full lifecycle – from project development and planning through to delivery, monitoring, reporting and evaluation.

Working closely with our network of local civil society partners, you will ensure projects are delivered on time, on budget and to a high technical standard. You will build strong, trusted relationships with our local civil society partners, support their organisational and technical development, and combine their on-the-ground knowledge with international technical expertise to influence policy and practice.

This is a hands-on role in a small organisation. Alongside managing programmes, you will contribute to new business development, organisational strategy and wider EASST activities as needed.

Key responsibilities

• Manage a portfolio of road safety and sustainable mobility projects across EASST's partner countries, ensuring high-quality delivery against agreed objectives, timelines and budgets.
• Oversee project planning, work plans and budgets, monitoring progress and flagging risks or delays early, with proposed solutions.
• Ensure projects are technically sound, evidence-based and aligned with international road safety good practice.
• Support the development of new project proposals and concept notes, including budgeting, log frames/theories of change, and donor-specific requirements.
• Build and maintain strong, trusted relationships with partner organisations, supporting them to strengthen organisational and technical capacity, including through monitoring visits and technical support missions.
• Develop and maintain project monitoring frameworks, tracking outputs, outcomes and impact, and capturing lessons learned to inform future programme design.
• Prepare high-quality narrative and financial reports for donors, ensuring accuracy and compliance with requirements and deadlines.
• Manage project budgets and financial compliance, working with the Director of Operations and Finance to monitor spend and forecast against donor rules.
• Identify and manage programmatic, financial, reputational and safeguarding risks, ensuring compliance with EASST's policies throughout.
• Collaborate with colleagues across EASST and represent EASST with donors, partners and other stakeholders, contributing to organisational strategy, business development, and communications outputs as needed.

• Experience of road safety programmes and a strong understanding of road safety principles, data and evidence-based interventions.
