Job description

Governance Manager

Location: Hybrid – Central London + homeworking

Contract: Full-time, permanent

Salary: £51,879

MLC Partners is working with a respected UK charity, to appoint a Governance Manager into a pivotal role at the heart of the organisation.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced charity governance professional who wants to shape governance strategy, strengthen board effectiveness, and support leadership in a values-led, mission-driven environment.

The role

As Governance Manager, you’ll act as a trusted adviser to the Board of Trustees, Chair and senior leadership team, leading on governance and assurance across two entities.

You’ll be responsible for delivering high-quality, best-practice governance that is practical, proportionate and aligned with the organisation’s strategic priorities. Working closely with the Director of People, Culture and Governance and the Director of Finance and Operations, you’ll also support organisational risk management and policy assurance at executive and board level.

Key responsibilities:

  • Act as Board Secretary, providing expert support to the Board and committees
  • Lead the annual governance cycle, including planning, meeting schedules, agendas, papers and minutes
  • Ensure actions and decisions are tracked effectively and followed through
  • Maintain accurate governance and statutory records, including regulatory filings and registers
  • Own and develop group-level governance frameworks, policies and standards
  • Partner with their subsidiary Board Secretary to ensure consistency and proportionate assurance across the group
  • Advise trustees, NEDs, CEOs and senior leaders on legal, regulatory and fiduciary responsibilities
  • Monitor developments in charity law, company law and governance best practice, translating them into practical guidance and training
  • Support oversight of organisational risk frameworks and governance-related policy compliance
  • Lead the three-yearly independent governance review and implementation of recommendations
  • Drive board development, including succession planning, skills audits, recruitment, induction and training
  • Manage conflicts of interest processes and support strong governance culture
  • Champion equity, diversity, inclusion and belonging (EDIB) at board level
  • Lead and mentor the governance team, fostering a collaborative and high-performing environment

About you:

You’ll bring substantial experience in a governance or company secretarial role, ideally within the not-for-profit sector, and be confident operating at board level.

  • Strong knowledge of charity and corporate governance frameworks, legal duties and regulatory requirements
  • Experience implementing and improving governance practice
  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to translate complex governance matters into clear, concise papers and minutes
  • Strong organisation and attention to detail, with the ability to manage multiple priorities
  • Sound judgement and discretion when handling confidential information
  • A commitment to social justice and EDIB

For a further confidential conversation about this role and your search, please contact Annabelle at MLC Partners.

Applications close 20th April.

We particularly welcome applications from individuals with lived experience of financial insecurity or those from underrepresented communities, including Black, Asian and minoritised ethnic groups, disabled people, and LGBTQIA+ individuals.
