Job description

This is not a turnaround role, but nor is it a stewardship-only role. We are looking for a CEO to lead the next ambitious phase of Literacy Pirates’ journey: building on strong foundations to deliver a disciplined, digitally enabled phase of national growth. The successful candidate will not be expected to reinvent the mission or abandon the existing strategy. They will be expected to sharpen execution, increase momentum, strengthen the growth engine, and lead the organisation through the next phase of scale. 

The CEO will work closely with a strong Senior Leadership Team and Board to scale the Virtual Ship, strengthen partnerships and income, protect what is distinctive about Literacy Pirates, and ensure the organisation is operationally and financially ready for sustained growth. 

Role purpose 

To lead Literacy Pirates through its next phase of growth by: 

  • scaling the Virtual Ship nationally in line with the 2030 strategy; 
  • maintaining impact while improving the organisation’s economics and operating model; 
  • building the partnerships, income and organisational capacity needed for long-term success; and 
  • protecting and evolving the culture, values and quality that make Literacy Pirates distinctive. 
Organisation
