Since its founding in 1994, EMERGENCY has worked in 21 countries around the world, providing free medical care in accordance with its core principles of equality, quality and social responsibility. We do this in a sustainable way: by building healthcare facilities, training local personnel, and conducting search and rescue missions in the Mediterranean Sea.

This includes a substantial growth in its income, with a particular focus on high value giving from philanthropists, trusts and other private donors.

In this context, the postholder will be required to spend a considerable amount of the working week out of the office travelling and meeting in person with potential donors and their representatives.   

2) To manage and develop meaningful donor relationships, including with existing donors, by utilising a wide range of methods, including stewardship events and networking amongst existing donors and their contacts.

3) To actively participate in the implementation of the current high value fundraising strategy, leading change and adjusting plans based on experience and realistic assessments in order to meet pre-agreed targets. This includes supporting the ongoing development of all aspects of the strategy, such as the case for support, prospect research, donor recognition opportunities and individual donor development plans for high value donors and prospects.

4) To contribute to the efficiency and effectiveness of the team, taking a lead role in the annual planning and reporting process for high value donors, providing regular progress reports against income targets and ensuring high standards of accountability. This also includes ensuring written and electronic records of donors are maintained, in compliance with data protection legislation.

5) To represent, and act as an ambassador, for EMERGENCY UK at external events, promoting its work and values where and when possible.

Person specification:

• Senior level experience working with foundations, corporates, high and ultra-high net worth individuals, leading them from identification to giving annual and multi-year gifts at the high five and six-figure level
• Experience of working independently to identify and cultivate prospects and influencers who have the ability to make personal introductions to high and ultra-high net worth individuals
• Experience in implementing high value giving strategies and annual plans for high and ultra-high net worth individuals, including reporting on targets and KPIs

We have an exciting opportunity for a strategic, collaborative programme manager to help shape and deliver work that improves the lives of people affected by diabetes.

In this dynamic role, you’ll be at the forefront of turning our organisational strategy into action. You’ll need to work proactively across teams to coordinate complex programmes, bring clarity to priorities, and ensure our ambitions translate into meaningful outcomes. This is a role where big‑picture thinking meets practical delivery.

We’re looking for someone who can inspire and collaborate, building strong, positive relationships with colleagues and stakeholders at all levels. You’ll be confident working with complexity, comfortable navigating ambiguity, and skilled at bringing people together around shared goals.

Join us and be part of something truly transformative. Together, we can change lives for people with and at risk of diabetes and help achieve a world where diabetes can do no harm.

Why we’re needed

Across the UK, over 4 million children are currently living in poverty, driving increasing demand for essential items and support for families with young children. In 2024 alone, baby banks supported over 219,000 families, a 35% increase on the previous year.

And demand is outpacing supply. Many baby banks are being forced to turn families away.

Baby banks are community-led organisations that provide essential items such as clothing, nappies and equipment to families with young children experiencing poverty or crisis. They operate in diverse ways and often offer support and signposting in addition to the material goods, reflecting the needs of their local communities. Baby banks have grown rapidly over the past decade in response to rising levels of need. However, this growth has largely been organic and fragmented.

BBA exists to support, unite and advocate for baby banks: strengthening collective impact, unlocking national opportunities, and helping a fast-growing and diverse movement operate with greater voice, reach and resilience.

The Baby Bank Alliance (BBA) was co-founded by Purposeful Ventures, Save the Children UK, Little Village and the Bristol Baby Bank Network. Since its founding, BBA has built strong national partnerships, secured significant funding and goods for baby banks, and raised the profile of the sector through national media and corporate partnerships (including with organisations such as IKEA).

Currently incubated by Purposeful Ventures and Save the Children UK, BBA is now moving into its next phase: in Summer 2027 we will become an independent organisation and are on the journey to build the national recognition, scale and sustainability to meet growing need.

BBA continues to work closely with its co-founders and incubating partners, who are expected to remain important collaborators as the organisation transitions to independence.

The Opportunity

This is a rare opportunity to lead a high-impact organisation at a pivotal moment.

BBA’s achievements to date:

• A national member network of 256+ baby banks
• Current income of ~£1m, with clear ambition to grow significantly
• Grants of >£650k in unrestricted funding to members, with more to follow in Summer 2026
• Distribution of significant gift-in-kind: 13 electric vans; 326 laptops; >£400k worth of toiletries; hundreds of pieces of equipment like prams and high chairs; thousands of toys, nappies, and books
• National media coverage, including features in the Independent, a leading segment on ITV’s Good Morning Britain, plus coverage on BBC News, BBC Breakfast, the One Show, ITV Calendar News, Radio 5 Live, Times Radio and local BBC radio stations
• Confirmed and in-principle support commitments from key partners, including support expected through the current strategy period, providing a strong platform for growth

We are looking for a CEO who can:

• Secure major income and strategic partnerships
• Build BBA’s profile and credibility as the national voice of baby banks
• Lead the successful transition to independence and long-term sustainability
• Keep baby banks and the families they support at the heart of BBA’s work

Job Description

Initially, this role will be employed by Purposeful Ventures. Once BBA becomes independent, the CEO and other members of the BBA team will transfer to direct BBA employment under TUPE. Your terms and conditions of employment will remain unchanged.

What success looks like:

• Income growth: 50% increase in income by 2028, enabling increased funding to member baby banks and investment in BBA’s own capability and resilience.
• Public awareness: increased awareness of baby banks, driving stronger partnerships, broader public support and greater ability to unlock income and influence.
• Independence: a successful transition to an independent organisation in Summer 2027, retaining strong relationships with co-founders and incubating partners.

• Organisational leadership: a small but highly effective central team, operating in line with BBA’s principles and with the needs of baby banks at the heart of decision-making.

Purpose of the Role

The Chief Executive Officer will lead the Baby Bank Alliance through its transition to independence and into its next phase of growth.

This is a unique opportunity to shape a growing national organisation — building long-term sustainability, strengthening partnerships, and ensuring BBA can continue to support baby banks across the UK.

The role is externally focused, with a strong emphasis on growing income, building partnerships and raising BBA’s profile, alongside leading a small, committed team. Working closely with the co-founders and incubating partners, drawing on their expertise and networks, will remain crucial in the transition to independence and beyond.

External Profile & Sector Leadership

• Build BBA’s reputation as the trusted national voice of baby banks
• Develop strong relationships with funders, partners, government and sector organisations
• Represent BBA externally, helping to grow awareness of baby banks and the role they play in supporting families

Governance & Board Partnership

• Work closely with the Chair and Board to ensure strong governance and accountability
• Support the Board’s development as BBA becomes independent
• Provide clear and useful insight to support good decision-making

Organisational Leadership & Delivery

• Provide clear, values-led leadership, creating a supportive and collaborative culture
• Work closely with the Exec Lead to ensure continuity and strong delivery during the transition period
• Put in place the systems, structures and ways of working needed for a growing organisation

• Ensure safeguarding is appropriately embedded in BBA’s work, with clear oversight and proportionate approaches
• Champion equity, diversity and inclusion in how BBA works internally and supports baby banks across the UK

Financial Stewardship

• Hold overall responsibility for BBA’s financial sustainability
• Oversee budgeting, financial planning and resource allocation
• Ensure funds are used effectively to deliver the greatest possible impact

Person Specification

• A strong track record of securing funding and building partnerships
