We’ll never put a healthy dog down, so our work is focused on helping dogs in need, supporting owners every step of the walk, and creating a better world for dogs in the future. It’s what we’ve been doing since 1891 and how we’ve grown to become the UK’s leading dog charity, helping 12,000 loyal friends find their forever homes every year.

As we look ahead to our next strategic phase from 2026, we are seeking an exceptional leader to build on this momentum. As Chief Executive, you will guide a skilled and dedicated team, work closely with an engaged Board of Trustees, and shape how the Trust deepens its impact while strengthening its voice in policy and practice. The role calls for strategic clarity, strong and authentic relationship-building, and the confidence to represent the Trust across government, civil society, and the energy industry.

We are looking for a leader of sound judgement and emotional intelligence, with a collaborative and inclusive style. Someone who recognises the dignity and potential of the people we serve, and who believes that lasting change is achieved through partnership, evidence, and purpose.

The Trust has evolved significantly in recent years. We now operate with a strengthened in-house team, a clear and ambitious strategic direction, and a growing reputation as both a trusted funder and a respected voice in the national conversation on fuel poverty. Our work spans direct financial assistance, specialist advice, and community-based programmes, underpinned by an increasingly sophisticated understanding of what truly enables households to build resilience. This combination of practical support and system-level insight places us in a distinctive and influential position within the sector.

About Depaul UK

In the 1980s, high unemployment and steep inflation was contributing to a shocking rise in youth homelessness across London. Thousands of young people were sleeping rough every night, with many areas notoriously dubbed “cardboard cities” due to the visible rise in street homelessness. Appalled by the scenes playing out across the capital, a group of people came together to tackle the challenge head on. Led by Cardinal Basil Hume and Mark McGreevy OBE, in 1989 Depaul UK was born.

What began as a single housing project in North London soon expanded across London, Greater Manchester and the North East of England. Today, Depaul UK provides accommodation, prevention and support services to thousands of marginalised young people across the UK each year.

As our name suggests, the work of Depaul UK has been inspired by St. Vincent de Paul – a man who devoted his life to helping vast numbers of people throughout the 17th century. St. Vincent de Paul’s belief in the intrinsic worth of all people and his commitment to taking bold action remain central to our values today. Depaul UK now forms part of a family of Depaul charities around the world. We each focus on the specific challenges in our own countries, but we’re united by our shared values and mission to end homelessness.
