We welcome applications specifically from Black people of African and Caribbean heritage, as the statutory requirement of the Equality Act 2010, Advance Equality in Mental Health 2020 and Parent Carer Race Equality Framework 2020, in order to address the importance of Black employee safety. These posts are therefore restricted to Black applicants under the Equality Act 2010, Schedule 9 and Part 1.

An enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check will be required. Still, we will treat applicants with a criminal record fairly and not unreasonably discriminate because of a conviction or other information revealed.

 

 

We pride ourselves on being a values-driven organisation, and we’re looking for a like-minded Operations Manager to join the team in this new role.

Blending people skills with project and process expertise, you will be organised and adaptable. You will be adept at spreading yourself across multiple functions and have the right balance of assertiveness and human touch to get things done. We are looking for someone with strong oral and written communication skills, who will be able to lead meetings and write effectively for a wide readership. This is a varied role, in a lively and friendly organisation where no two days are the same, which will suit someone with a strong interest in criminal justice.

You may come to us as an already-established manager, or someone looking to step up into a more senior role. You may have experience across some of the usual operations functions, such as HR, facilities management and project management. Or, you may have developed a specialism in your career and be looking for a wider remit and leadership role.

Research tells us that marginalised groups of people may not apply for jobs unless they meet 100% of the criteria. We also know that good applicants can come from many backgrounds with different experiences that might not seem “standard”! We’d still love to hear from you, even if you don’t feel like you check all the boxes as you read through this job pack. We value people who bring unique perspectives and knowledge to our team.

We hope you’ll apply: what is most important to us is sharing our values and attitude to work – the rest we can work on through our culture of feedback and development.
