About Them

Our client is a federated movement of 46 charities, supported by a central charity. Together, they have over 900,000 members, 32,500 volunteers and 3,400 staff across the UK. They are at an exciting moment in their 110-year history, with the implementation of an ambitious new strategy, setting out a vision of nature in recovery, with abundant, diverse wildlife and natural processes creating wilder landscapes where people and nature thrive.

They have restored and care for some of the most special places for wildlife in the UK. Collectively they manage more than 2,600 nature reserves, operate 123 visitor and education centres and own 29 working farms. They undertake research, they stand up for wildlife and wild places under threat, and they help people access nature.

The next few years will be critical in determining what kind of world we all live in. We need to urgently reverse the loss of wildlife and put nature into recovery at scale if we are to prevent climate and ecological disaster.

In addition, the postholder will lead a new programme of work on how to better understand their impact, and support the coordination of data activities across relevant teams.

Our client values passion, respect, trust, integrity, pragmatic activism and strength in diversity. Whilst they are passionate in promoting their aims, they are not judgmental and are inclusive. They particularly encourage applications from people who are underrepresented within their sector, including people from minority backgrounds and people with disabilities. They are committed to creating a movement that recognises and truly values individual differences and identities.

They take their Safeguarding responsibilities extremely seriously. 

They are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and adults at risk. For applicable roles, applicants must be willing to undergo checks with past employers and Disclosure and Barring Service checks at the eligible level.

As a Disability Confident employer, they are committed to offering an interview to anyone with a disability that meets all the essential criteria for the post.

Director of Operations

Developing Health and Independence (DHI)

Bath

Full time, permanent role

c£68,000 + benefits

Are you creative and adept at making the complex simple?

Do you feel passionately about social justice, challenging discrimination and disadvantage, and developing and delivering effective, solution-focused services that genuinely support people to change their lives? 

Do you have the determination, drive, and vision to lead and develop people, systems and services, overcoming barriers and challenges in a complex, often highly regulated world? 

If you have answered yes then you are likely to thrive in this exciting role as you will be able to take on real responsibility, leading on all DHI operations to deliver high impact services.

DHI is a charity that helps disadvantaged and vulnerable people turn lives around, stand on their own feet and reduce dependency. We do this because we believe everyone should have the chance to achieve their potential to make a valuable contribution to society. 

We help vulnerable young people and adults overcome circumstances, structural barriers as well as self-limiting behaviours that are holding them back.  Our clients are often disadvantaged or living at the margins, meaning they are disproportionately affected by substance misuse, homelessness, offending, mental health issues and other factors that contribute to social exclusion.

Few, if any of our clients, come with a single issue.  Rather than treat issues in isolation, we work with the person, not the label, and find the most effective way to help them.  We help people through a highly personalised, solution-focused approach, regardless of the service they enter; services that include housing, drug and alcohol treatment and much more besides. 

The ideal person will bring significant senior level experience and track record of achievements, working within social or supported housing, drugs/alcohol, or a related social care field, including substantial contract and people management experience.  You will be able to combine practical experience of developing simple effective systems, bring strong leadership, performance management and relationship building skills, and be able to operate successfully in a dynamic, fast-paced and challenging environment.

This isn't your average marketing role.

Your work will directly help ensure that essential SRHR services remain accessible in low-resource settings by making their delivery models self-sustaining.

You'll work side-by-side with local teams in countries such as Nepal, Chile, Ecuador, Benin, Ghana and the Philippines. Your mission? Build impactful marketing strategies, improve websites and digital channels, and empower local teams through coaching, toolkits, and long-term support.

• Train local teams on social media, digital marketing, and community engagement
• Work directly with local marketing agencies to co-create campaigns
• Monitor performance metrics and adjust strategies based on real-time data

You'll Need:

• Proven commercial marketing experience - ideally within healthcare, consumer services, or retail
• A deep understanding of how to drive customers into the clinical services they provide by using digital and traditional campaigns
• Strong coaching, influencing, and cross-cultural communication skills
• Confidence working autonomously and adapting quickly in dynamic, low-resource environments
• Hands-on experience optimising websites and managing digital channels
• Willingness to travel internationally up to 20% of the year (1-2 weeks at a time)
• Fluency in English; Spanish and/or French is a strong advantage

Why Join this Impactful International NGO in this role?

• Be part of a purpose-driven, values-led organisation driving real-world impact
• Work with inspiring local teams across Ecuador, Ghana, Nepal, the Philippines, and beyond
• Travel across the world as part of your job, with all expenses paid
• Shape innovative marketing solutions for under-resourced healthcare providers
• Gain unique experience at the intersection of commercial strategy and global health
