• Keep the shelter safe and secure – Follow all safety, security, and health & safety procedures and make sure the space stays tidy and free from hazards. 

• Recording important information – Write clear, accurate shift notes and incident reports (if needed) in our In-Form system so colleagues have up-to-date information.

• Training and meetings – Attend occasional in-person training sessions, team meetings, or other activities. You may be assigned brief online training to complete on shift from time to time.

We are seeking an inspiring leader to become the next Chief Executive of the Magistrates’ Association, the only independent voice of magistrates in England and Wales.

The MA is a Royal Charter charity with around 12,000 members. For more than a century we have championed magistrates, supported their development, and spoken truth to power on behalf of the magistracy and the wider justice system.

As Chief Executive, you will:

• Provide strategic leadership, working closely with the Board of Trustees

• Be a visible and authoritative advocate with government, judiciary, Parliament and the media

• Oversee the delivery of services and support that matter to members

• Lead the growth of our membership, engaging new magistrates and re-connecting with those who have left

• Ensure strong financial and organisational management of the Association

We are looking for an experienced and credible leader with:

• A track record of strategic leadership and organisational development

• Strong financial and business acumen

• The ability to influence at the highest levels and act as a public spokesperson

• Experience of growing a membership body or comparable organisation

• A clear commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion
