Galop is the leading LGBT+ anti-violence organisation working with lesbians, gay men, bi, queer, trans, non-binary and intersex people who have experienced prejudice, violence or harassment. Over 35+ years, Galop has supported LGBT+ people who experience abuse and injustice and has campaigned for equal, fair, and inclusive access to criminal justice and other services.

Galop has grown significantly in the last 4 years with the income level of the organisation going from £0.32 million and 3.8 f.t.e to £1.6 million and 22.5 f.t.e. To account for this growth and support the future development of the organisation Galop undertook a restructuring exercise.  Within the restructure it was recognised that an in house dedicated staffing resource to hold the day-to-day responsibility for the operations management function was necessary and the Operations manager is now a key role in Galop’s Management team.

Under the direction of the CEO and with the help of the Administrator and a Bookkeeper ensure the postholder works to ensure the effective operations of the charity, plan and implement the most efficient procedures.  The postholder areas of responsibility will be: 

• Operational support to the CEO and Service Leads 
• Financial management
• HR and Health & Safety management 
• Office and facilities management 
• Communications management

As a member of the management team you will be expected, with training and guidance, to take an active part in supporting the whole Galop team and be part of the Duty Manager rota that provides support to the frontline team. Experience and aptitude to provide calm leadership and a supportive problem-solving approach to practical problems and judgements involving risk is necessary.

It is also vital to have knowledge of the broad range of issues facing LGBT+ people, and to have a demonstrable commitment to the ongoing development of knowledge and understanding about the issues that Galop works with, namely supporting LGBT+ victims and survivors of discrimination, abuse and violence. A robust commitment to equalities and the inclusion of all LGBT+ people is essential.

We particularly welcome applications from BAMER (Black, Asian, Minority Ethnic and Refugee), trans and disabled communities as staff from these backgrounds are currently underrepresented in our organisation.  Galop is committed to furthering equality, diversity and inclusion across our organisation and this work is led by our EDI (Equality, Diversity and Inclusion) group. 

This new post is a fantastic opportunity for someone who is passionate about people, self-motivated who is also able to manage and lead services that make a difference to the lives of others. 

The post holder, who will join us at a challenging (but exciting) time as we mark 25 years will be responsible for the management and development of the Forum’s core offer/services including service delivery lead for the Reaching Out Community Befriending Service, ensuring outputs and targets are achieved and being able to evidence the impact and difference our services have had on those we work with. In addition, they will also provide high quality management for our Volunteering Programme, including the recruitment, induction, ongoing support, and supervision of volunteers.

Our Head of Operations, Compliance & Finance role is a new senior management position in the IBD Registry that reflects both our fast growth and increasing maturity.

ABOUT YOU

You will have senior experience (broadly equivalent to director level) in finance, operations, people and compliance management and be confident and competent working with technical and data projects.  You will have a strong academic qualification record, including postgraduate qualifications in finance or business management.

Resettlement Worker

We are looking for an experienced Resettlement Worker to join a brilliant, forward thinking homelessness Charity within a brand new role. Due to the current pandemic many rough sleepers have been moved into hotels and temporary accommodation, and it is now time to focus on resettling people back into the community before the projects are closed so that we can work towards the end goal of ending rough sleeping.

The successful candidate will manage a caseload of former rough sleepers and offer a range of support, including; referrals to sources of specialist long term support; advice and guidance; conducting assessments to identify support needs; developing relationships to help them meet their goals; and providing person centered support.

We need your support more than ever to help former rough sleepers successfully transition and to reduce the risk of returning to the streets.

If you are interested in this opportunity, please apply ASAP for further information.
