Our client is a charity transforming lives through hospital air transfers for children. They are the UK’s international and domestic aeroplane ambulance charity dedicated to ensuring that children and babies who have a medical incident are safely and swiftly returned to their local hospital or home location within the UK. They also provide a tailored support service for families to help them through crisis, creating improved outcomes and lasting change.

Our client has recently expanded internationally, assisting families by repatriating children with medical issues back to the UK, often collaborating closely with British embassies abroad. They ensure that children can get home to NHS care - even when crisis happens overseas.

Chief Executive Officer
Location: Flexible within the UK, with weekly internal and external meetings in London/ Biggin Hill
Salary: £78,000 to £90,000 per annum

Supporting families is a key part of what differentiates our client from other charities. Assisting families - before, during and after transfers - is a key element in why families consistently advocate for the organisation. They are always there when families feel they have no one else to turn to.

The charity is entering a significant growth phase, with more demand and opportunity than ever before. With a number of opportunities open to the organisation, the CEO will lead strategic objectives and growth, including:

• Addressing the NHS’s demand for domestic child medical transport
• Significantly expanding their international service
• Continuing to enhance the Family Support Service that is a core part of our proposition

The CEO will lead the dramatic expansion of the service to allow the organisation to help more families than ever before, ensuring they have the structure and resources to achieve these goals. They aim to continue to broaden our overall service proposition with expanded comprehensive pre- and post-transfer support services such as counselling, and reviewing their operating model and services provided to ensure they meet both existing and new community needs.

Our client are looking to appoint a passionate and ambitious leader who brings:

• Experience of operating at strategic level (CEO or senior director) in the charity sector, with inspirational leadership skills.
• Experience of implementing successful fundraising strategies that grow income.
• Experience of building relationships with senior stakeholders, including donors, and of leading on profile raising.
• A passion for the vital support the charity provides for families.

Our client actively seek candidates from diverse backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives, recognising that embracing diversity and fostering inclusion directly contributes to innovation, creativity, and organisational excellence. The charity is committed to equity and fairness in recruitment and employment, ensuring equal opportunities for all candidates regardless of ethnicity, race, gender, sexual orientation, disability, age, religion, socio-economic background, or any other characteristic.
