Strengthening BPP’s core capacity and sustainability through donor stewardship, Middle East engagement, and systems building.

BPP is in a period of growth and transition, evolving from a volunteer-led initiative into a professionally structured charity.

You will sit within the Finance & Operations team and be part of CSE’s Senior Management Team (SMT), working closely with our Director of Finance & Operations.

Who you are

You will bring:
· Experience managing IT systems, infrastructure and external providers.
· Working knowledge of GDPR and cyber security best practice.
· Familiarity with platforms such as Microsoft 365, SharePoint, and cloud services.
· Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage risk and prioritise effectively.

What success looks like in this role
This role is central to keeping our systems secure, stable and supportive of colleagues across CSE. We are looking for someone who can confidently take ownership, work independently, and continuously improve how we deliver IT.
In the first 6–12 months, success might include:
· A clear, well-documented overview of CSE’s IT systems and infrastructure.
· Smooth and reliable day-to-day IT support across the organisation, with positive feedback from staff.
· Effective working relationship with our external IT provider, with clear processes and expectations in place.
· Cyber Essentials accreditation maintained and compliance confidently overseen.
· Risks, dependencies and continuity plans identified and managed.
· Practical support provided to colleagues across departments, especially around internal databases and platforms.

We are looking for someone who can build on strong foundations, while helping us work smarter and stay secure as we grow.
