Jobs in Greater London
Redemption Roasters is looking for a new Head of Impact to join them in their mission to reduce reoffending rates through coffee.
Who we are
Redemption Roasters is a specialty coffee company that believes that reoffending in the UK can be reduced through coffee.
At their roastery at HMP The Mount, Redemption Roasters trains residents in barista, coffee production and roasting skills as well as roasting incredible coffee for its range of London coffee shops and network of over 100 wholesale clients. The company also runs barista academies at 9 other prisons.
The UK’s reoffending rates are amongst the highest in the western world, and it’s costly on both a national and personal level. If prisoners find employment, they are 50% less likely to return to prison. There is always a job for a good barista or roaster, and that’s why Redemption Roasters is doing this work. They want to show the coffee community and the world that a positive commercial environment can be created behind bars and that exceptional specialty coffee can come from places and people you wouldn’t expect.
About the role
As a social enterprise, we strive for profit in order to achieve our purpose. The Head of Impact will be responsible for the social mission of the business and will ensure that it remains at the heart of what Redemption Roasters does. The person in this role will manage the company’s education channel, including developing strategy; overseeing delivery; and reporting on social impact outcomes. In addition, the person in this role will act as a key partner and ambassador for the brand in its relationships with education client companies; third-party employers; beneficiary mentors/social workers; and the wider Criminal Justice Sector. The Head of Impact is responsible for a team of 7 and reports to the Directors.
Who we are looking for
First and foremost, we are looking for someone who shares our passion for challenging perceptions and changing lives through specialty coffee. The successful candidate will be someone who is driven by seeing others succeed and the idea that achieving greater impact can lead to more success for an even wider range of people.
It is important to us that the person in this role brings a strong leadership track record in the third sector combined with the knowledge, skills, and experience to operate successfully in a commercial environment. Ultimately, this role is about using profit to deliver on purpose, and we are particularly interested in hearing from candidates who have a history of achieving both profit and purpose in previous roles. It is essential that our Head of Impact is professional, proactive, and excellent at building relationships with people at all levels and from all backgrounds, in addition to being someone who has a strong track record in recruiting and retaining excellent talent.
