About You
Can you use your expert media relations and proven line management skills to help put nature into recovery with one of the UK’s best-loved environmental charities?
We are small. but brilliant national media team creates billions of opportunities to ‘see’ our work in print, radio, online and on screen each year – from our commentary on Government policy to stories about our work on the ground. Our interviews, quotes, videos and press releases are used in national and international stories which are as varied as peatland recovery stories, climate resilience and red squirrel conservation to sea grass restoration and whale sightings. We regularly appear on BBC Countryfile, Springwatch, BBC Radio 4’s Today programme, and Channel 4 News as well as in the Guardian, tabloids and other national outlets. In 2024 alone, the team achieved c.36,000 mentions in the media with over 690 billion opportunities to be seen. This coverage ensured that we remain at the heart of the national conversation on why we need nature.
But we’re not standing still because the nature and climate crises demand greater and more urgent action. We’re therefore looking for a resourceful and strategic thinker who can exploit new opportunities for us to continue to raise our profile and use our communications and media profile to drive greater awareness of and engagement with the things that need to happen to halt and reverse nature declines.

In particular, we are keen to do more to highlight the role of people power (community organising) in nature’s recovery.
You will have significant previous experience of generating compelling news stories and features, and ideally you will have been involved in publicising policy and campaigns. There is never a dull moment with us and you will need to thrive working in an extremely fast-paced environment where organisational skills, prioritisation and attention to detail are a must.
We value passion, respect, trust, integrity, pragmatic activism and strength in diversity. Whilst we are passionate in promoting our aims, we are not judgmental and are inclusive. We particularly encourage applications from people who are underrepresented within our sector, including people from minority backgrounds and people with disabilities. We are committed to creating a movement that recognises and truly values individual differences and identities.

London is a fantastic city to call home, but a central truth remains in the capital. Every year thousands of young people find themselves unhoused, unsupported and unsafe. That's why our client exists.
Founded in 1967, the centre continues to be a vital support network for 16–24-year-olds with nowhere else to go. Through the services they provide at their day centre, in the community and remotely, their dedicated, multidisciplinary team of over 70 staff support thousands of young people facing homelessness in London to find safety, improve their wellbeing, develop skills for life and ultimately find somewhere that they can call home.
As they embark on their new 5-year strategy, the centre are now recruiting for an exceptional individual as their new Director of Services, a newly created role that will lead on the delivery and development of all frontline services.
As Director of Services, you will be responsible for the leadership, development and integration of all frontline services at the centre, covering Housing, Health, Youth Work, Rough Sleeping, and Youth Justice. You will work to ensure that services are high quality, joined-up, trauma-informed, and relentlessly focused on the needs and potential of the young people the organisation serves. You will lead service innovation, performance and quality across the delivery portfolio, ensuring that services are inclusive, impactful, and responsive to the needs of service users. As a senior leader, you will help shape organisational strategy and culture, working closely with the COO to drive improvements, partnerships and cross-team collaboration.
To apply for this role, you will be an inspiring, supportive leader with significant experience of overseeing large frontline teams, successfully leading services, and directing and implementing change. You will have a profound understanding of the issues, barriers and challenges affecting young people with complex needs, especially those facing homelessness or fleeing violence and exploitation. You will have significant experience of leading teams of frontline staff and will have a strong track record of delivering results and quality outcomes. Solid experience of risk management, safeguarding and compliance is also essential to this role. Overall, you will be a dynamic senior leader, passionate about delivering high quality support services for young, vulnerable people across London.
