Chief Executive Officer
In Your Corner are entering an exciting phase of growth, having recently converted to a charitable legal structure. After eight years of successful leadership, our founder is stepping down from their current post as CEO, and their position on the board. We are now looking forward to our future as a charity and seek a strategic leader with the passion to drive us forward.
We are an award-winning social enterprise whose mission is to support young people to develop the emotional and relational skills that will support them to thrive, through combining non-contact boxing with evidence-based ideas from psychological intervention. As a values-based organisation we're seeking someone with a commitment to our mission, vision and values; as-well as a solid understanding of youth work, mental health, or boxing/sport for change work and ability to use this to guide leadership decisions and actions.
The CEO will lead IYC’s services and charitable activities, ensuring effective day-to-day management and development of services and income, while maintaining a positive stakeholder engagement that aligns with its strategy, and ensures future success, financial sustainability, and impact.
This role is part-time and will include occasional evenings to support core project delivery times and board meetings. Regular in-person working in Inner London locations for project visits and meetings is a requirement. However, other activities can be completed via remote working.
