Lead. Shape. Demonstrate Impact.

Now that the Maritime Children’s Foundation has been established for a year, we are ready to take our programmes and evaluation to the next level. We are seeking a Head of Programmes and Impact – a strategic, passionate leader who can ensure our initiatives deliver the very best for disadvantaged children and families.

This is a unique opportunity to lead and shape our programmes, embed robust monitoring and evaluation, and play a pivotal role in ensuring every Maritime child thrives.

About Us

The Maritime Children’s Foundation was established to provide the extra support that families and children experiencing disadvantage need, so that all children can get the best start in life. In just a year, we’ve launched initiatives that are already making a difference – from baby and toddler support, to community ambassador programmes, to free Saturday Skills Academies and secondary transition support.

We are proud to be part of the Reach Foundation network, meaning our work is already influencing national thinking and practice. With your leadership, we will continue to innovate and demonstrate meaningful impact both locally and nationally.

The Role

As Head of Programmes and Impact, you will:

• Oversee programme delivery – ensuring our current initiatives, from early years to secondary transition, run smoothly and achieve the best outcomes.

• Lead design and development of future programmes that respond to the needs of disadvantaged families across Maritime schools.

• Embed impact and evaluation – creating a clear Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) framework that captures both data and lived experience.

• Demonstrate impact – producing reports that inspire funders, inform strategy, and showcase the difference we are making.

• Collaborate with stakeholders – from schools and community groups to funders and local authorities, ensuring our work is evidence-based and community-led.

• Support fundraising – providing compelling impact evidence to strengthen bids and future funding opportunities.

You’ll report directly to the CEO and work closely with the Partnership Lead and the wider Maritime Academy Trust central team, as well as spending time in our 13 schools to see our programmes in action.

Who We’re Looking For

• An experienced programme or impact lead with a strong track record in design, delivery, and evaluation.

• Someone passionate about tackling disadvantage and improving outcomes for children and families.

• A strategic thinker who can translate vision into practical delivery plans.

• A collaborator who builds strong partnerships and brings communities into the heart of programme design.

• Someone confident in turning data and evidence into accessible, inspiring reports.

What We Offer

• Flexible, supportive, and family-friendly working arrangements.

• Opportunities to work across schools, communities, and with national partners.

• A chance to shape innovative programmes that are already gaining national attention.

• Wellbeing initiatives and a comprehensive Employee Assistance Programme.

• A small, passionate team where your work will have a visible, meaningful impact.

Ready to Apply?

Join us and be part of a growing Foundation dedicated to disrupting disadvantage and creating brighter futures.
