We're looking for a new Chief Executive: a compassionate and visionary leader who values lived experience. It's a balancing act between honouring the organisation's deep foundations, whilst welcoming new and innovative ways of working.
Mary Seacole House is a small, but mighty charity that punches above its weight. Rooted in people, place and community, the organisation has a proud 30-year history serving the city's Black, Asian, racially minoritised and refugee communities with a clear mission: to tackle mental health inequalities through a culturally responsive lens. They serve people too often overlooked by traditional mental health services, offering a safe space and a strong voice.
Why this role matters
The need for culturally appropriate mental health support has never been more pressing. Against a backdrop of systemic inequality, social injustice and rising mental health challenges, Mary Seacole House offers a lifeline to hundreds of individuals each year.
Services range from 1-1 support and advocacy to wellbeing activities, outreach, and collaborative projects across the region. Respected and trusted because they listen and learn, the organisation prides itself on partnerships and creating spaces where people feel genuinely seen and understood.
About you
As Chief Executive, you'll help shape the future of Mary Seacole House - driving strategic ambition, empowering the team, and ensuring services continue to create lasting impact. This is more than a CEO job - it's a platform for someone who wants to shift the dial on mental health inequality.
We're looking for someone who is:
- A natural collaborator and communicator, confident presenting to diverse audiences, from local communities to commissioners and funders.
- A values-driven leader, with a deep understanding of the lived experience of racially minoritised communities.
- Skilled in strategic planning, service development and partnership building, with credibility to influence decision-makers and inspire teams.
- Aware of income generation, capable of fundraising, developing partnerships and ensuring financial sustainability.
- Passionate about equity, inclusion and culturally responsive care, with a proven commitment to antiracism and the resilience to lead through change and complexity.
We're open-minded about your background - whether you come from the charity sector, health, social care or beyond. What matters most is a demonstrable commitment to the core mission and your ability to lead with humility, integrity and vision.
We welcome candidates from all backgrounds to apply for this role.
Mary Seacole House values the power of lived experience to inform, shape and drive change. We encourage those without lived experience of racialisation or racial/ethnic oppression to spend time reflecting on how you would lead authentically and advocate effectively. If you choose to apply, you'll be given the opportunity to address this in your application.
Why join us?
At Mary Seacole House, you'll be part of something powerful, leading a dedicated and diverse team who are deeply connected and committed to their work. Together, you'll help shape services, influence change, and make a meaningful difference.
We're passionate about developing potential leaders, especially those who come from typically underrepresented backgrounds. As such, we are working to develop a programme of coaching, mentoring and training to upskill a new leader who may not have been in a CEO role before.
To apply, all you need to do is send a copy of your CV or brief overview of your career/profile to Amelia Lee at Charity People as the first step.
We'll be back in touch with details on the application process, providing your experience meets the brief.
Closing date: 9am on Thursday 8th May
Interviews dates will be confirmed soon.
Charity People actively promotes equality, diversity and inclusion. We match charity needs with the skills and experience of candidates, irrespective of age, disability (including hidden disabilities), gender, gender identity or gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, or sexual orientation. We do this because we know greater diversity will lead to even greater results for the charities we work with.
