Job description

First Step Trust is a charity and social enterprise with over 30 years’ experience supporting people who are furthest from the labour market to gain skills, confidence and move into employment.

We combine social impact with commercial enterprise, delivering training programmes, social enterprises and innovative virtual reality learning tools that create real opportunities for disadvantaged learners.

We are now looking for a Head of Commercial to lead the next stage of our growth.

This is a senior leadership role with responsibility for driving commercial income across our social enterprises and developing new revenue streams, including the commercial licensing of our virtual reality training products.

You will oversee a portfolio of social enterprise businesses, supporting project managers to increase sales, improve performance and ensure the businesses are operating effectively. Alongside this, you will identify and develop new commercial opportunities, partnerships and routes to market.

As a member of the Senior Leadership Team, you will play a key role in shaping the organisation’s strategy and helping us achieve our ambition that 60% of our income will come from commercial activity by 2030.

We are looking for someone who brings strong commercial acumen and a proven track record of generating income, alongside the ability to lead and develop teams. You will be comfortable working at both a strategic and operational level, with the confidence to drive growth while maintaining a clear focus on social impact.

This is an exciting opportunity to take on a leadership role where you can shape commercial strategy, grow innovative services and make a real difference to people’s lives.

For full details of the role and how to apply, please see the recruitment pack.
