Located in the heart of historic Westminster, The Abbey Centre manages a vibrant community hub buzzing with a diverse range of activities and services aimed at addressing local community needs.
When many people think of Westminster, their minds often turn to government and wealth. However, Westminster as a community also faces high levels of deprivation and with neighbourhoods ranked among the top 10% of England’s most deprived areas.
We exist to support local residents and have proudly done so for over 70 years. Since 1991, we have operated a busy and vibrant community centre, providing a range of activities for people of all ages, from after-school clubs to programmes for older people. We also run a successful community food pantry, café, and catering operation.
We are ambitious about doing even more for local people and are embarking on a period of growth after developing a new theory of change and securing investment to enhance several aspects of our building.
With our current postholder moving on to an exciting new opportunity, we are looking for a new leader to join our Senior Management Team. We seek an ambitious person with the ability to grow. Some experience in leading teams, managing budgets, and overseeing relevant programmes would be beneficial. However, we are primarily focused on your ambition, your commitment to values-led leadership, and your desire to help us reach even more people in the community.
We are open to supporting someone targeting their first Senior Management Team role. You will benefit from an excellent team, a CEO invested in your development, and a lead Trustee equally committed to your growth. We are also willing to invest in your development, offering financial support for training, coaching, or mentoring.
We are proud that our staff team reflects Westminster’s wonderful diversity, and many of our staff had never considered a career in the charity sector before joining us. We encourage you to bring your full self to work, and we will celebrate the diversity and perspectives you bring to our team.
