The Maggie Oliver Foundation (TMOF) exists to create a society where survivors and those at risk of childhood sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE) are empowered to live fulfilled and successful lives, where every survivor is treated with dignity, respect, and as an equal and valued member of society.

We support adult survivors and their loved ones in transforming the pain of their abuse into strength, helping them recognise their own resilience, develop healthy coping strategies, build self-confidence, and embrace positive opportunities for the future.

72% of adults who experienced sexual abuse as a child do not tell anyone at the time of the abuse. A third of children never tell anyone about their abuse. In the last year alone, we have supported over 750 survivors of sexual abuse and exploitation.

Our purpose is to support people of all ages and backgrounds who have experienced sexual abuse, offering help, advice, and therapeutic interventions to aid their recovery and help them move forward with their lives. We are also committed to raising awareness, advocating and campaigning, and providing education and guidance across the UK to help protect those at risk of sexual abuse.

As our new Operations Manager, you will oversee and drive the effective day-to-day running of the organisation. This is a unique opportunity to play a pivotal role in a growing charity dedicated to empowering survivors of abuse.

You will share responsibility for creating and implementing effective and efficient systems and processes to ensure the charity’s development and smooth running. You will work very closely with our Emotional Support Manager to deliver services and strategy to a high standard. You will be responsible for managing and motivating the advocacy team and be willing to learn all about the organisation’s work.

We need somebody to drive progress with the same determination and compassion demonstrated by our staff and volunteers delivering our operational services.

As part of a small, close-knit team, you will lead internal operations, financial oversight, and governance while contributing to strategic planning, staff support, and partnership development.

Who we are looking for

We seek an enthusiastic and committed Operations Manager with experience working at a senior level, ideally within the charity sector.

Above all, we need our Operations Manager to be committed, engaged, and ready to play an active role in driving the organisation forward.
