Eido is entering a new phase of growth. Our influence is expanding and the opportunities before us exceed our current capacity. We believe this creates an exciting prospect for an experienced CEO - or for a current charity or business director ready for their first top-level leadership role.

We are seeking a leader of character and conviction, with missional drive, and experience in networking and delivering impact solutions within the Christian sector to take Eido to the next level. There is flexibility in how the role could be shaped, depending on the skills and preferences of the successful candidate.

The CEO is ideally a person of Christian faith to lead team prayer meetings, attend and contribute at Christian conferences, pray with clients, and speak with integrity and authority within the Christian sector.

As Eido transitions from being founder-led, we recognise the importance of establishing a healthy, collaborative relationship between the new CEO and shareholders. After an initial transition period, the shareholders intend to form a board and meet fortnightly with the CEO to review KPIs and offer insight on key decisions. Our goal is to set the new CEO up for success, providing support and accountability, while allowing them space to develop and pursue their own strategies and full autonomy in leading day-to-day operations.
