Programme lead jobs

About the role:

This is a chance to help turn potential into possibility for people who have too often been locked out of opportunity.

At Single Homeless Project (SHP), we know that rebuilding a life is about more than housing. It is also about confidence, connection, skills, purpose and access to the right opportunities at the right time. Our Achieving Potential programme supports people across SHP to access learning, volunteering, training, education and employment, and this role will help strengthen and grow that offer so it is more connected, visible and accessible.

As Project Coordinator, you will coordinate the day-to-day delivery of the programme, keeping activity planned, information up to date and communication clear across teams, participants, volunteers and partners. You will help maintain the programme prospectus, manage enquiries, track engagement and outcomes, and support participants to move between opportunities in a way that feels joined up and meaningful. You will also help build relationships with colleges, employers, training providers and community organisations, opening up new routes for people to build skills, confidence and independence.

This is a brilliant opportunity for someone who enjoys making things happen, bringing structure to growing work, and creating the systems and relationships that help good ideas become real, lasting opportunities for people. At SHP, you will be supported to grow in the role through regular supervision, access to learning and development, and opportunities to build your skills in programme coordination, partnership working, impact reporting and inclusive service delivery.

Hybrid working for the role means 3 days in our SHP offices and services with opportunity to work from home around this. 

About you:

• You are a natural organiser who loves turning ideas into clear plans, smooth systems and meaningful activity that people can actually access.
• You build trust easily, bringing warmth, curiosity and respect to your work with clients, colleagues, volunteers and partners.
• You believe people’s futures should not be limited by homelessness, trauma or disadvantage, and you bring creativity and care to helping people move towards their goals.
• You are confident keeping things on track, whether that means managing information, coordinating schedules, communicating clearly or spotting practical ways to improve how things work.

About us:

We’re London’s leading homelessness charity – and we get things done.

In a city where hundreds are forced into homelessness every day, our work has never been more needed or more challenging. And we’re not shying away. We’re rolling up our sleeves to make change and helping over 10,000 Londoners every year. We prevent homelessness, provide safe places to live and give people the opportunity to rebuild their lives and transform their futures. And we never give up. 

We’re here for Londoners wherever they are on their journey. We start with trust, building relationships that help people feel safe, supported, and ready to move forward. Every day, we put people first in everything we do, challenging injustice and barriers that keep people from the safety, stability and opportunity they deserve. We stand alongside people as they rebuild and shape a future that feels their own. 

Joining Single Homeless Project means joining a team that’s bold, compassionate and determined to do better for the people we support and for each other. You’ll work alongside colleagues with lived experience, in a space that’s trans-inclusive, disability-friendly, and actively striving to be anti-oppressive and equitable. 

We’re not perfect, but we’re real. We listen. We learn. And we push forward, together. Because this isn’t just a job. It’s a chance to lead with empathy, spark change, and help build a London where no one is left behind.

The Head of Programming & Creative Producing is a new senior role, working with the Chief Executive to shape and deliver the artistic output of the Philharmonia.

The postholder works hand-in-hand with the Head of Artistic Planning, and members of the Executive team to programme and artistically shape traditional concert programmes at various scales and in various contexts, as well as learning and digital projects and pre- or post-concert activities. The postholder also leads on the development and producing of new performance formats for own-promoted concerts.

A first-rate creative thinker, you will be passionate about working with conductors, artists and agents to create world-class concert programmes, residencies and series, and will be able to draw on your deep knowledge and understanding of orchestral repertoire, artists, and the wider cultural context, as well as an established network of industry relationships to turn your ideas into reality.

Your artistic interests, however, will range beyond the traditional core, and you will be driven by a personal mission to engage different and new audiences with orchestral music, whether that is through music for films or games, cross-artform and cross-genre collaborations, pre-performance debates, schools performances, VR installations, or different performance formats. You will take a producing approach to new performance formats, keenly appreciative of the importance of staging, narrative and flow for contemporary audiences. 

You know the importance of equality and diversity on stage in building a future for classical music, and are an active champion of creative projects which demonstrate this. Discovering new artists and musical voices will be second nature to you, just as you will be sensitive to the needs of established artists and composers in shaping a project. While your focus is on the quality of the artistic output, you will maintain in-the-round awareness of the complex jigsaw of sometimes competing priorities and restrictions into which any project has to be delivered, including box office and audience development targets.

An important member of the HODs Team with a close relationship to the Philharmonia Orchestra Artistic Committee, this role suits a collaborative and inclusive emerging leader who acts with integrity, and who can manage complex systems and personalities in line with the Philharmonia’s mission to create the orchestral experience of the future.

The Programme Officer role sits at the heart of Tudor's grant-making ambition: to build ecosystems for change, work through abundance rather than scarcity, and create the conditions in which communities can exercise genuine self-determination. This isn't just about distributing funds - it's about laying the foundations of a new system, one relationship at a time. 

This is not a traditional grant-making role. Tudor's approach is relational, emergent and systems-led, and this role reflects that. If you're energised by complexity, comfortable sitting with uncertainty, and genuinely interested in how power and change interact - we'd love to hear from you. 

This is a role for someone who enjoys bringing people, ideas and activity together. You will support programme delivery, partner relationships, events, learning and coordination across a wide range of work, helping ensure things move forward thoughtfully, reliably and with care. There is also real space for curiosity, reflection and growth - contributing insights, noticing patterns and helping Tudor learn from what we are hearing, seeing and experiencing.
