What you will be accountable for 

As an Assistant Director, you will take senior operational accountability for: 

• Safe, effective and well-led services – ensuring strong safeguarding, quality, operational risk management and service user outcomes.  
• Contractual performance – ensuring services deliver against contractual requirements and KPIs, with strong commissioner relationships and timely action to address underperformance.  
• Financial sustainability – maintaining strong financial oversight, effective workforce management and oversight of the sustainability of individual contracts.  
• Evidence-based assurance – using reliable performance, quality, workforce and financial information to identify risks and drive improvement.

You will lead and develop senior operational managers, set clear expectations and create a culture in which support and accountability operate together. 

You will also lead and contribute to service mobilisation, transformation, workforce planning and continuous improvement. 

Who we are looking for 

We are looking for established senior operational leaders with substantial experience leading complex commissioned services and geographically dispersed teams. 

You will bring a strong track record of:

• managing significant service budgets and improving financial performance;

• leading service improvement, mobilisation and organisational change;  
• developing senior operational managers and addressing underperformance; and  
• using performance, quality, workforce and financial information to provide assurance and drive improvement.  

You will need to combine strategic leadership with operational pragmatism, understanding the detail when necessary while maintaining oversight of performance, risk, quality and sustainability across a complex portfolio. 

Above all, we are looking for collaborative, credible and values-led leaders who can support and challenge in equal measure, build leadership capability and bring people together around common standards and organisational priorities. 

Specialist experience 

For this role, you will need significant leadership experience across both Criminal Justice and Housing/Homelessness services, including housing or accommodation-based provision. 

You will understand the complexity of working across criminal justice, housing, local government and other statutory systems and be experienced in building effective relationships with commissioners and partners while maintaining strong operational and contractual oversight. 

This is a 12-month fixed-term appointment at an important stage in Cranstoun’s transformation, offering the opportunity to lead a significant portfolio, strengthen operational performance and help shape the future development of our operating model. 

Be part of Cranstoun’s next chapter 

Our successful five-year strategy has seen Cranstoun grow considerably, extending our reach and the range of services we provide. We remain ambitious and innovative, committed to developing services that respond to the changing needs of people and communities. 

As we look to the future, we are investing in the leadership, operational capability and organisational infrastructure needed to support our continued development, strengthening operational governance, consistency and assurance across our services.

Are you called to Mission?

Do you want to help bring life in all its fullness to people living in poverty across Asia and Africa in the name of Jesus? Do you enjoy building relationships, public speaking, and strategic thinking? Are you able to inspire others to bring lasting change? If so, we would love to hear from you!

You may have thought that leprosy is an ancient Biblical disease, but today someone is diagnosed with leprosy every three minutes. It is a disease of poverty, striking the most vulnerable. Stigma and discrimination mean many people with leprosy hide their symptoms for as long as possible, living in terrible fear of what will happen to them. But without fast treatment, leprosy can cause blindness and disable hands and feet. Rejection, isolation, hopelessness. We believe that this is not how God wants people to live. Will you join us to help end leprosy?

The Leprosy Mission (TLM) is the world’s largest leprosy-focused organisation, a pioneer in our field, with over 152 years’ experience serving people affected by this disease. We are a leading international development charity, working in nine countries across Africa and Asia. We are Christ-centered, following His leading to defeat leprosy and transform lives.

We are looking for an inspirational communicator to be the face of The Leprosy Mission. You’ll be working from home, with extensive travel across your region. As part of a fun and supportive team, you’ll be changing the lives of people who have been rejected by society. We have a culture of growing and learning together, providing extensive training in fundraising and international development. You’ll also have opportunities to visit projects overseas and see our work first hand.

This is a home-based role; however, applicants must be based in North Wales or the Midlands.

We’re looking for:

• A relational public speaker, experienced in engaging audiences including churches and community groups
• Proven success in fundraising or sales
• A confident networker
• Experience of managing volunteers
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills
• A willingness to work on Sundays and evenings as required, and occasional Saturdays
• The ability to develop and deliver a regional fundraising strategy

TLM is an explicitly Christian charity, serving those of all faiths and none. There is an occupational requirement for the Community Partnerships Manager to be a committed Christian as you will be preaching and speaking in supporting churches. 

A valid UK driving license is an essential requirement for the role. The successful candidate will be required to undertake a work health questionnaire.

TLM has a zero-tolerance policy towards any abuse, neglect and exploitation of all people.  Successful candidates are expected to understand, sign and comply with all organisational policies, including the Safeguarding Code of Conduct and Policy. Recruitment to all roles within TLM includes criminal record checks and the collection of relevant references. A criminal record will not necessarily bar you from joining us as an employee; this will depend on the circumstances of any offences. We are committed to diversity and welcome applications from appropriately qualified people from all sections of the community, who have permission to work in the UK.

About The Role
What if a brand marketing campaign could make more people aware that dementia is the UK’s biggest killer? Encourage someone caring for a loved one with dementia to seek support? Or inspire more people to use their voice and help make dementia a public priority?
That’s the kind of difference your work could make as Marketing Manager (Brand) at Alzheimer’s Society.
You’ll join our Brand Marketing team at an exciting time. Following the success of campaigns including The Ultimate Vow, The Long Goodbye and, currently, A Personal Appeal, we’re on a mission to grow the public’s awareness of dementia and Alzheimer’s Society’s unique role in tackling the devastation of this disease.
You’ll work alongside the Senior Marketing Manager (Brand) to deliver the next advert in the A Personal Appeal series, develop strategic, innovative brand activations and partnerships and help shape where our brand goes next.
Do you have experience of turning an insight into a powerful idea that people can’t forget? Or working with a variety of stakeholders to create work that reaches the right people in the right places to inspire action?
In this role, you’ll help us do exactly that.
Contract: This is a fixed-term contract until October 2027
Interviews: Interviews are provisionally scheduled to take place on the 16th September via MS Teams
What you'll do
You’ll help develop brand campaigns, activations and partnerships from an initial idea through to testing, creative execution and delivery across a range of channels. And you’ll work collaboratively throughout the process with both our trusted creative and media planning agencies and internal stakeholders to build sector-leading work.
You’ll:

- Lead and project manage the delivery of large-scale, multi-channel brand marketing campaigns, keeping projects on track and working to agreed deadlines and budgets.
- Develop and deliver paid media strategies across AV, digital, out of home and print channels.
- Work closely with our creative and media agencies, building positive relationships and creating the conditions for brilliant work that makes people sit up and take notice.

- Bring colleagues and stakeholders with you along the way, so people across the organisation understand and feel connected to our campaigns.
- Help shape our brand strategy and make sure everything we produce feels consistent, relevant and inclusive.

- Consult on the strategic and creative development of key fundraising products, finding opportunities to connect our brand and fundraising activity.Line manage and support the Senior Marketing Executive (Brand), helping them develop and grow in their role.
- Deputise for the Senior Marketing Manager (Brand) when needed.

Some days will involve big ideas and inspiring creative conversations. Others will be about budgets, timelines, analysing data and getting the small details just right. You’ll need to be comfortable with both sides of this coin, while keeping sight of why this work matters to our audiences.
About you
You’ll be a confident and thoughtful marketer who understands what makes a strong brand - and how good marketing can help an organisation connect with more people and achieve its goals.
You might have developed your skills in a charity, agency, commercial organisation or somewhere completely different. What matters is what you can bring to the role, the way you work with others and your motivation to create work that truly makes a difference.
We’re looking for someone who can:

- Lead and project manage large-scale, successful, multi-channel campaigns, balancing competing priorities and keeping delivery on track to tight deadlines.
- Develop and deliver multi-channel paid media strategies, using insights and performance data to make informed decisions.
- Manage, track and make effective use of significant budgets, with a clear focus on value and impact.
- Work collaboratively with creative and media agencies, providing clear direction, challenging constructively and creating space for ideas to bloom.
- Communicate clearly, build trusted relationships and influence a broad range of stakeholders, including senior colleagues.
- Understand how brand marketing can build trust, awareness and engagement to support a charity’s wider goals.
- Use research, data and insights to understand what matters to people, translating learnings into compelling brand campaigns and partnerships.

You’ll be comfortable bringing both creative flair and analytical thinking to your work. You’ll be organised, curious and able to manage your own workload, while also knowing when to involve others or ask for support.
Most importantly, you’ll care deeply about the work you produce and the people it’s reaching.
We value different perspectives, backgrounds and ways of thinking, and we know there are many different routes into a role like this.
If you can see yourself doing this role but don’t meet every single requirement, please don’t let that stop you from applying. We’d love to hear from you.

About Alzheimer's Society
Dementia is the UK's biggest killer. One in three people born in the UK today will develop dementia in their lifetime.

At Alzheimer's Society, we're the UK's leading dementia charity and the only one to tackle all aspects of dementia by giving help and hope to people living with dementia today and in the future. We give vital support to people facing the most frightening times of their lives, while also funding groundbreaking research and campaigning to make dementia the priority it should be.

Together with our supporters, we're working towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives.

Our values make sure that our focus is clear for the challenges and opportunities ahead and remind us of what we all stand for.

Our commitment to Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging

We need to ensure the voices around our table better reflect and understand the communities we exist to serve. We strongly encourage individuals to apply who have a disability, impairment or health condition or individuals who identify as Black, Asian or from another minority ethnic background, as these groups are currently under-represented at Alzheimer's Society.

We want everyone we work with, as a colleague, volunteer, supporter, or someone we support, to feel included and that they belong at Alzheimer's Society.

Our Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy here along with our internal employee forum and Employee Lived Experience network groups help us promote inclusion and belonging, becoming an engaged and inclusive organisation for all our people.

Our hiring process

During your recruitment process we want to make sure that you bring your whole self and can be at your best. We are working hard to ensure our recruitment process is as inclusive as possible, so please do inform us of your experience and anything you think we could do better by completing our candidate survey when you apply. Please also contact Alzheimer's Society Talent Acquisition Team via [email protected] for application support or any adjustments you might need.

To ensure fairness and consistency to select the best candidate for this role, all our applications are anonymised up until an interview has been confirmed. We recognise the benefits of AI, but if you're considering using it to submit your application, we encourage you to reflect on the value it truly adds. AI tools often lack the personal touch and authenticity that set candidates apart. We want to hear your unique perspective, experiences, and skills, so we encourage you to showcase them in your own voice.

We try to avoid closing roles early where possible, however if we receive a high volume of applications, we may close earlier than the advertised closing date. Should this occur, we will aim to provide you with at least 48 hours' notice.

We are committed to safer recruitment and ensuring the welfare of those we work with, due to the nature of some of our roles, we might need to carry out a Criminal Record Check at the relevant level. You can read more information via our Website.
