- Ensure capacity planning across the Region so that project management workloads are realistic and risks are appropriately managed.
- Lead recruitment, onboarding, and succession planning for the regional team, contributing to wider Programmes Team workforce planning as required.
- Deputise for the international Chief Programmes Officer when requested to do so during their absence

- Develop and implement a plan for regular partner engagement and capacity building (including visits where appropriate and safe) to strengthen project delivery, monitoring, and safeguarding.
- Represent Barnabas Aid professionally with partners and other stakeholders, managing sensitive information and security considerations appropriately.
- Engage proactively with peer organisations and networks to bring insight on sector best practice into BAI's work.

Both posts share the same job description and grade and will work flexibly across SPI’s full portfolio. However, each role has a distinct focus area and differs in contract type:
- Role 1 - Health Systems and Improvement – Permanent: This role focus is in health systems and improvement, which will include leading place-based programmes, stewarding UK-wide health-improvement standards, and building the external relationships needed to deliver system-level change.
- Role 2 - Engagement at Scale – 2 year fixed term. This role focus is in ‘engagement at scale’ programmes, in its first year, it will include programme leadership of our universal offer, an organisation-wide programme aimed at delivering an accessible support offer for everyone affected by breast cancer. It will also include providing strategic partnership for other large-scale programmes, such as healthcare professional engagement initiatives and behaviour change.
While each role has a primary focus area, we expect both post-holders to be flexible and adaptable. Priorities change, and you'll need to be equally comfortable working across specialisms, seeing the focus areas as a starting point which will evolve with organisational priorities.
About you
Whilst both roles are the same, given the specialisms, for role 1, we're particularly interested in candidates with experience of external connectivity across the UK health system landscape and a working knowledge of NHS structures, integrated care systems, clinical pathways and health inequalities. For role 2, we're particularly interested in candidates with experience of scaled engagement work, such as leading public engagement, support or community programmes.
For both roles, you’ll be able to get into the detail when it matters, including the design and sequencing of the programme itself. On some programmes you'll be the strategic lead, owning the work from start to finish and being the trusted strategic advisor to expert leaders. On others you'll partner an expert team, bringing the wider organisation in behind their delivery and working through the barriers that hold progress back.
You'll be confident leading, designing and running pilots and prototypes, with clear measures of success and an evidence-led approach to learning and improvement, ensuring you keep lived experience of breast cancer at the heart of your work. You'll be comfortable with ambiguity, making progress at pace without losing rigour, and you'll bring an innovation mindset, creating the conditions, methods and permission for teams to test, scale and embed new ways of working.
Most importantly, you'll be able to be flexible in your workload, and motivated by the chance to lead change in an organisation that wants to be brave, determined and ambitious - one that backs innovation, challenges the status quo when it needs to, and is willing to commit to the big, multi-year work that real impact requires.

In Wales, fewer than one in three students leave school each year without a standard pass (grade C or above) in GCSE English and maths. This rises to over one in two for young people from disadvantaged backgrounds. The scale of the challenge at 16 extends into adulthood. The most recent survey of adult literacy and numeracy skills, which took place in 2010, found that a third of adults do not have literacy skills at level 2 (GCSE) or above and over three quarters do not have numeracy skills at or above this level. Lacking gateway qualifications locks people out of many opportunities for education and employment and is associated with adverse outcomes for learning potential, health and well-being.
Get Further exists to change this. Since 2028 our charity has delivered a series of interventions in England that help disadvantaged learners in Further Education to secure gateway English and maths qualifications that unlock opportunities. These interventions include our award-winning GCSE Resit Tuition Programme for those resitting GCSEs, our Functional Skills Tuition Programme, supporting those on or aspiring to undertake apprenticeship programmes, and our resources and training for post-16 English and maths teachers. We are now excited to be expanding our provision into Wales with post-16 GCSE English and maths tuition support. You can read about the impact of our interventions here.
OUR TEAM, VALUES AND BENEFITS
Our central team currently comprises some 40 members, all motivated to reduce educational disadvantage and ensure young people get the gateway qualifications they need to succeed. We currently employ over 100 active tutors. Our main office is in Kings Cross, London, although we also have team members based in Wales, Yorkshire, Birmingham and elsewhere. We share our office with another educational charity, Axiom Maths.
We promote a supportive, collaborative, and inclusive working environment and are guided by our core values. These values are at the heart of our organisation’s personality
At Get Further, we are:
-
BOLD We are bold and unafraid to go against the grain.
-
OPTIMISTIC We are optimistic through setbacks, retaining a sense of possibility in the face of challenges.
-

-
