About Charity Tax Group
CTG is a small, volunteer-led charity that, for over 40 years, has had a huge impact on the charity tax landscape, saving charities an estimated £10bn during that time, including VAT reliefs, the introduction of Gift Aid and significant policy influence. The cornerstone of that success has been a reputation for technical competence and professionalism, making us ‘the voice of charities on tax’ —engaging with government, HMRC and the wider voluntary sector.
We combine technical expertise with advocacy and education to help charities navigate complex tax challenges.
Last year, we were successful in registering as a charity, which opens up new opportunities such as funding and product savings. We also relaunched our annual tax conference, which was the first we had held since COVID.
About the role
We have recently become an independent charity and are recruiting our first Chief Executive to provide leadership, raise our profile and secure long-term sustainability. There is no handbook for what this role should be, and this will be an exciting opportunity to drive strategy, build influence with government and ensure CTG remains the trusted voice of charity tax.
As CEO, you will:
- Act as a credible spokesperson for CTG with government, HMRC, charities and the media
- Work with our Technical Advisor to sustain CTG’s authority and expertise
- Lead on fundraising and income diversification to ensure financial sustainability
- Help establish a vision and operational plan for the future of CTG
Who we are looking for
We are seeking an agile, outward-facing leader who can represent CTG at the highest level.
- Excellent communication, emotional intelligence and influencing skills
- Strong stakeholder and relationship-building ability
- Knowledge of charity tax, or the ability to learn and communicate complex detail quickly
- Fundraising or income generation experience
- Flexibility and motivation to make a difference
We are open to recruiting a leader who might be working towards some of the skills we are seeking, and have an excellent board of Trustees, and a strong technical advisor who can support any new CEO to develop.
We can provide exceptional levels of flexibility to the successful candidate, with most of the role being able to be fulfilled remotely; however, there will be instances where we also require flexibility, such as when we need to provide time-sensitive responses to the media.

Job Description
Company profile - Kinly
Kinly is a fast-growing social impact start-up with a mission to help older people live independently for longer. We are focused on the megatrend of ageing demographics, improving healthspan and helping to reduce the economic and social burden of ageing.
Kinly supports older people and their families to understand what support and allowances they are eligible for and then does all the complex forms/applications for them. By doing so, we unlock £5,000 a year per person on average, helping people to afford health/care support, physios, taxis, and at-home equipment.
A majority of older people are cut off from the support they need due to barriers to access – disability, low income, lack of internet or lack of family. We help people navigate a complex system and make ageing easier. Our services are free at the point of use, and fully accessible offline (using only a landline phone), but we use a lot of technology to deliver the service.
Kinly was founded by a previous unicorn founder (insure-tech) and ex-Managing Director of an AIM-listed healthcare company. The business is based in West London, with teams focused on Benefits, Customer Success, Tech and Operations. The business has a very senior advisory Board, including Government advisors and health and care leaders. Kinly’s Head of Benefits formerly lead a successful Information & Advice Service at Age UK, gaining two external Quality Marks under her leadership.
