Job description

Kerry Community Youth Services is now inviting applications from suitably qualified, motivated and experienced individuals with the vision and drive required to lead our organisation.

We currently wish to recruit a Chief Executive Officer.

The successful candidates will work closely with the Board of Kerry Community Youth Service to deliver our new strategic plan 2023 - 2026. The successful candidate will also work closely with key personnel across Kerry Community Youth Service to ensure our services, facilities and projects continue to be responsive to the needs of the families, communities, and young people that we work with.

The CEO will have responsibility for the management, finance, governance and compliance portfolio across the organisation as well as ensuring that all reporting and auditing requirements are fulfilled in a timely manner.

As well as leading a very committed staff team across Kerry Community Youth Service, the CEO will foster, develop, and promote the role of volunteers across the organization.

Working closely, collaboratively and effectively with a range of external strategic partners and funders (both statutory and non-statutory at a regional, national and European level), and in particular with Youth Work Ireland, the CEO will garner as many resources as possible to ensure that “youth work for all” is a reality for all young people in Kerry.

If you feel you have the experience, drive and passion for the work and ethos of Kerry Community Youth Service, we would love to hear from you.

Applicants must have:

  • A recognised third level qualification relevant to the post.
  • Minimum 5 years senior management experience in youth and community sector or the broader voluntary sector.
  • Financial acumen and resource management experience.
  • Excellent communication, facilitation, and networking skills.
  • High degree of integrity and leadership to lead a dynamic and committed staff team.
  • An excellent level of IT, social media and administrative skills.
  • Imaginative, flexible and can-do approach.
  • A commitment to the ethos, values, history, and culture of Kerry Community Youth Service.

An 8-point Salary Scale (€80,668.03 - €100,530.23) is associated with the role. The point of entry will be negotiated with the selected candidate who has the skills, experience and vision required to lead this unique organisation.

Applications will only be accepted from candidates who submit the following:

1. Completed signed Application Form. 

2. Letter of application outlining your suitability for the position (250 words).

3. An UpToDate CV.

When you click apply you will be redirected to our website where you can find out more information and access all the supporting/required documents.

 

Closing date for receipt of applications by 5.00 pm, Friday, 31st of October 2025.

Youth Work Ireland and all its affiliated members including KCYS, are equal opportunities employers. Full Driving License and own transport are required.

1st interviews will take place on 28th of November 2025 in Killarney.

2nd interviews will take place on 12th of December 2025 in Killarney.

If you feel you have the experience, drive and passion for the work and ethos of Kerry Community Youth Service, we would love to hear from you.
