Organisational Vision & Context:

At TLG, we’re on a bold, pioneering journey toward 2030 - reshaping how we think, plan and operate so we can deliver our vision with agility and impact.

This is an exciting time to join the team. In response to the growing mental and emotional health needs of children and young people, TLG is exploring two major initiatives: Therapeutic Hubs in churches and schools, and a UK‑wide Coaching Network that equips ministry leaders to work therapeutically with children. Together, these initiatives strengthen the local church’s ability to connect with children and families and extend the reach of compassionate, evidence‑informed support. ​

To make this possible, efficiencies and innovation must be at the forefront of how we work - streamlining processes, embedding digital solutions, and leveraging technology to unlock capacity and accelerate change. ​

This Role’s Impact:

As CRM and Systems Lead, you’ll be responsible for the design, development and ownership of TLG’s Power Platform solutions, with a focus on Dynamics 365 configuration, Power BI reporting, and Power Automate workflows.

You will lead the development of user-centred digital solutions and play a key role in shaping TLG’s data strategy and digital transformation, enabling TLG to scale innovation across programmes and giving our teams the tools to move fast with confidence.

If you’re a pioneer who loves collaborating across functions and turning complex needs into elegant, scalable tools, this is your invitation to accelerate TLG’s next chapter!
