EFA is committed to safeguarding children. We are looking for people that can bring different perspectives and experiences. We are unable to offer visa sponsorship to candidates living outside of the UK

This is an exciting new role to build upon the recognition of our achievements to date, by elevating the awareness of the Trust and our many partners. We expect that National Geographic will release their documentary in Autumn 2024 about Shackleton and the expedition organized by the Falklands Maritime Heritage Trust that found the wreck of Endurance in the Weddell Sea. This is likely to lead to heightened awareness of and interest in our work, which will appeal to applicants with a real interest in maritime heritage and, ideally, the Falkland Islands and/or the South Atlantic/Southern Ocean.

As COO you will serve as the first point of contact representing FMHT in, we envisage, an increasingly high-profile public manner.  You will report to the Chair of Trustees, working collaboratively with the Trustees.  You will also collaborate with a variety of charities, institutions and agencies, all with shared interests in our work.

We are seeking an energetic ‘all-rounder’ - a proven leadership professional who will roll their sleeves up and deliver.  You will have outstanding communication and liaison skills, be skilful in raising funds and engaging sponsors together with sound financial and contract management experience.  Drawing from your previous experience you will help to design, implement and deliver our operational and commercial objectives.  Highly self-motivated, you will possess the vision, energy and drive to help create and to implement sustainable strategies for the Trust.

We are looking for people who will thrive in a fast paced, rewarding role helping to change the lives of young people. We have vacancies in our centres in Bridlington, Bradford and Hull.

As the UK’s leading university access organisation, our staff team is helping thousands of young people each year. We currently have forty one centres and extension projects across England and Scotland. We have a number of new centres planned for 2023 to 2024, and ambitious plans to scale up our provision further over the coming years.

If you believe that all young people deserve the chance to develop their talents regardless of their background and want to play a part in helping them succeed, then we would be delighted to hear from you.
