About you

We are looking for someone with:

  • Senior leadership experience, ideally in the charity sector.
  • A strong track record in fundraising or income generation.
  • Proven financial and operational management skills.
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building ability.
  • Strategic thinking, combined with a practical, hands-on approach.
  • A genuine commitment to the charity’s mission and values.

Additional information
