CEO

Leadership Through Sport & Business (LTSB) is a UK-based social mobility charity that prepares and supports young people from disadvantaged backgrounds into meaningful roles with major firms. We make sure those at risk of under-employment find careers equal to their ambition and ability and can contribute from their first day on the job.

Since 2012, we’ve worked with 1,963 young people, providing them with personal and professional development to prepare them for the world of work, then working to place them in roles across accountancy & finance, digital technology, customer service, law, marketing and insurance.

Joining LTSB means becoming part of a team dedicated to breaking down barriers for young people. Your leadership will make a tangible difference, not only in the lives of those we support but also in the future direction of the charity itself.

We are looking to appoint an inspiring leader who brings:

• A passion for social mobility, equality, and supporting young people from disadvantaged backgrounds.
• Proven experience in a senior leadership role within a charity or small to medium sized organisation, ideally in the social mobility, youth, or education sectors. 
• A track record of successful fundraising, partnership development, and income generation, ideally including grant funding and corporate partnerships.

LTSB’s mission is to break down barriers and build bridges to opportunity. We actively challenge inequality, promote inclusivity, and celebrate the unique contributions of all individuals. We believe that by embracing diversity in all its forms, we can foster innovation, inspire excellence, and make a lasting difference. At LTSB, EDI is not just a commitment - it is who we are.

Please let us know if you require any reasonable adjustments throughout the application and interview process.
