Chief Executive, Cavernoma Alliance UK
Home-based within the UK
28 hours (including some evening and occasional weekend work)
Actual salary: £35,840 to £38,079
Equivalent full-time salary: £48,000 to £51,000
Cavernoma Alliance UK is a well-established UK charity supporting people affected by cavernoma, a rare condition involving clusters of abnormal blood vessels in the brain or spinal cord.
Founded in 2005 by people with lived experience of cavernoma, we provide peer support, trusted information, awareness raising and research advocacy for the cavernoma community. We also work closely with leading neurologists, neurosurgeons and researchers across the UK to help improve clinical care, information and research for people affected.
We are now looking for a new Chief Executive to lead and be an ambassador for the work of CAUK. This is a meaningful and varied role in a small charity where your contribution will be visible. It would suit someone looking for a senior charity role with real purpose, flexibility and a close connection to the community they support.
You will be joining an organisation with a supportive Board of Trustees, a staff team that cares deeply about the community we serve, highly committed volunteers, and strong clinical and research partnerships.
We are in the second year of our five-year strategy, ‘Together For a Cure - 2025 to 2030’, and are making good progress across our priorities. The current Chief Executive is leaving after three and a half years in post to take up a new opportunity, and the charity is in a positive and stable position.
A major focus for the role over the coming years will be supporting delivery of a five-year UK-wide clinical trial starting in August 2026. This study could potentially identify the first medication treatment for cavernoma.
Alongside this, the role will focus on maintaining sustainable income, supporting high quality peer-led services through our Head of Volunteering and Member Services and volunteer team, and continuing to grow CAUK’s reach and awareness, particularly online.
We would particularly welcome applications from people with previous charity management experience, whether within a small charity or in a more senior role within a larger organisation. We are also open to applicants who can demonstrate a strong understanding of the charity sector through trustee, professional or voluntary experience.
This is a home-based role with flexibility, although there will be occasional travel across the UK, typically every 1 to 2 months, including meetings in London.
If you would like an informal conversation about the role before applying, we would be happy to arrange this with the current Chief Executive and/or Chair of Trustees.

We are looking to engage an experienced freelance IT Support Specialist to deliver a defined programme of access management, systems administration and compliance work as we grow.
The focus of this engagement is to ensure our core systems are well-managed, auditable and secure, and that staff and freelancers are well supported in their day-to-day use of them.
The appointed freelancer will bring their own expertise and approach to shape how this work is delivered, working to agreed priorities and timelines, and collaborating closely with Oak colleagues.
This is a remote UK-based role, carried out on an Oak-managed device.

Product Lead – HOSTHub
(Operational Product Delivery)
Reports to: Operations Director (Head of Delivery)
Contract: 1.0 FTE (Temp to Perm)
Location: Remote (UK or International)
Role Purpose
The Product Lead – HOSTHub is responsible for identifying, prioritising, and resolving day-to-day product challenges across HOST’s digital platform.
HOSTHub serves as the operational backbone of the organisation, enabling delivery across finance, legal, partnerships, and hosted partner services. In this role, the Product Lead ensures the platform functions effectively in practice—by understanding user needs, surfacing issues early, and driving the design, prioritisation, and rapid delivery of solutions.
While contributing to the longer-term product vision in collaboration with the leadership team and development partners, the primary focus remains on operational product delivery. This includes managing fortnightly sprint cycles, maintaining a dynamic and prioritised backlog, and ensuring continuous alignment between user requirements, internal processes, and platform capabilities.
The role requires a highly hands-on individual who thrives at the intersection of users, internal teams, and developers, with the ability to translate real-world challenges into clear, actionable product decisions.
Core Responsibilities
1. Product Problem Identification and Prioritisation
Lead the ongoing identification of friction points, inefficiencies, and system gaps across HOSTHub use cases, including those impacting hosted partners, funders, and internal staff workflows.
Maintain a dynamic, prioritised backlog of product issues and enhancements, informed by user insight and operational impact.
Work closely with delivery teams across finance, legal, partnerships, and community support to understand how the platform performs in practice and where it falls short of user needs.
Translate operational challenges into clear, well-defined product requirements that are actionable for development teams.
Ensure prioritisation is driven by delivery urgency, risk exposure, and opportunities for efficiency, rather than abstract feature development.
2. Sprint Management and Delivery Execution
Own the end-to-end delivery of the product, managing fortnightly sprint cycles.
Set sprint priorities, create and refine tickets, and ensure all development work is well-scoped, logically sequenced, and ready for delivery.
Collaborate directly with development contractors to run sprint planning, stand-ups (where applicable), and sprint reviews.
Validate completed work against real user workflows before release to ensure quality and usability.
Maintain clear visibility of progress, risks, and dependencies, escalating blockers and trade-offs to the Operations Director as needed.
Provide bi-weekly sprint reports outlining delivered outcomes, outstanding issues, and upcoming priorities.
3. User Engagement and Feedback Loops
Establish continuous feedback loops with both internal users (staff teams) and external stakeholders (hosted partners and funders).
Conduct structured user conversations to understand how systems are used in practice, not just how they were designed to be used.
Validate proposed solutions with users prior to development where appropriate, ensuring alignment with real needs.
Ensure user insights consistently inform backlog prioritisation and shape sprint scope.
Maintain a clear view of user satisfaction grounded in qualitative feedback, not just survey-based metrics.
4. Cross-Team Operational Alignment
Act as the central point of coordination across product, delivery teams, and external developers.
Ensure HOSTHub effectively supports real operational workflows across key service areas, including Project Hosting, Hosted Grantmaking, and Capacity Building.
Partner closely with Finance, Legal, and Partnerships teams to align system functionality with compliance, contractual, and reporting requirements.
Identify and resolve misalignments between team processes and platform functionality, either by adapting the system or clarifying and standardising ways of working.
5. Development Oversight
Manage the day-to-day relationship with the development team, ensuring requirements are clear and issues are addressed promptly.
Ensure all development outputs are practical, functional, and aligned with real operational needs.
Avoid over-specification and unnecessary complexity, prioritising simple, implementable solutions.
Track defects, rework, and technical debt, incorporating them into sprint priorities where they have a meaningful operational impact.
6. Data, Workflow, and System Effectiveness
Ensure HOSTHub captures and delivers data that is accurate, actionable, and aligned with reporting requirements.
Identify and implement opportunities to automate key workflows, reducing manual effort across teams.
Partner with internal stakeholders to ensure system logic supports compliance and audit requirements in day-to-day operations.
Maintain clear, practical documentation of key workflows and system behaviours to support effective operational use.
7. Risk, Compliance, and System Integrity
Work closely with the Legal Lead and Operations Director to ensure product decisions do not introduce unmanaged risk.
Prioritise data protection, security, and system reliability as core product considerations.
Ensure compliance requirements, including data protection and financial controls, are embedded in how the platform operates in practice.
Take clear ownership of system incidents or failures, coordinating response and ensuring timely resolution and follow-through.
8. Contribution to Product Direction
Contribute to longer-term product thinking, including roadmap development and the ongoing evolution of the system.
Provide grounded input to strategy based on observed user behaviour, operational constraints, and delivery realities.
Ensure product direction remains focused on solutions that are practical, scalable, and genuinely valuable to users.
Key Relationships

Strong track record of identifying user needs and translating them into effective product solutions.
Experience working with complex operational systems involving multiple user groups and workflows.

The Big Chalk Partnership is made up of more than 150 organisations with a common vision of creating nature-rich chalk and limestone landscapes that benefit all of us.
The Protected Landscapes Partnership and Defra are supporting our Partnership to catalyse progress towards the UK’s nature commitments across these special landscapes through the multi-million pound Big Chalk Nature Recovery Fund. The Nature Recovery Fund Officer will administer and develop the systems and processes underpinning our grant-making.
The Big Chalk programme is hosted by the National Landscapes Association, which represents the UK’s National Landscapes (Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty). The Association is a charity and non-profit membership organisation. The team advocates, communicates and fosters collaborative action which supports National Landscapes to be as effective as possible, championing their interests with governments and delivering national projects.
We welcome applicants from a broad range of backgrounds – the most important thing is that you are motivated to work collaboratively with Big Chalk’s partners to benefit nature to the greatest extent possible, helping ensure our grant-making is both effective and compliant.
With significant experience of administering and developing grant making systems, processes and ways of working in the environmental or social sectors, you’ll bring a collaborative mindset and be skilled at building positive relationships with new colleagues, our partners and funders.
You’ll have applied experience of working with partners across the grant-making lifecycle and using grant management software to enable related operations. You’ll possess strong organisational and data management skills and be able to develop and communicate insights.
If this sounds like the opportunity for you, then we’d love to hear from you.
Please apply by submitting a short CV (no more than three pages) and a covering letter (no more than two pages) which addresses the person specification criteria in the attached role description.
First interviews will be held online for short-listed candidates – likely on 1st and 2nd July. A second interview round may follow if needed.
Lead and champion activity, working with National Landscapes, to protect and restore the UK's most outstanding landscapes.
