Merseyside Society for Deaf People

Chief Executive

Full-time

Permanent

Merseyside

Merseyside Society for Deaf People (MSDP) has been supporting and empowering Deaf, Deafblind and hard-of-hearing people since 1864. We are one of the oldest deaf charities in the country and an important part of the Deaf community on Merseyside.

We are a local charity with a national outlook. Campaigning, advocacy and practical support are all central to who we are. We work to advance equality for Deaf, Deafblind, and hard-of-hearing people by raising awareness of the barriers they face and providing accessible, high-quality services that promote independence, inclusion, and well-being.

MSDP is a “lived experience”- led organisation that works in partnership with Deaf, Deafblind, and hard-of-hearing communities to design and deliver services that reflect real needs and lived realities.

Demand for our services is growing. The needs of Deaf, Deafblind, and hard-of-hearing people continue to evolve, and support systems do not always keep pace. Rising delivery costs, pressure on public funding and the need to diversify income all make this a pivotal moment for the organisation.

We’re looking for an inspiring, values-led leader who can combine long-term vision with day-to-day delivery. You’ll work closely with the Board of Trustees to steer our business strategy, ensuring both sustainability and innovation.

You will lead teams with compassion and purpose, embedding Deaf culture and equality at the heart of everything we do. As our ambassador, you’ll also influence partners, funders, and policymakers to broaden our reach and impact.

To be our next Chief Executive you will bring strategic leadership experience with a proven record of accountability, financial stewardship, strong governance, and organisational growth. You’re a confident communicator and influencer, comfortable building partnerships and leading campaigns. Above all, you share our values of inclusion, integrity, and community.

About Action Tutoring
At Action Tutoring, we believe every child should be given the opportunity to succeed in school. But in the UK today, young people from disadvantaged backgrounds are less likely to 

achieve the grades they need to progress in life. This isn't because they are any less able; they have less access to the tools to help them reach their potential. 
 

We don't think this is fair. We know tutoring is an effective way of improving academic attainment and so we harness the power of volunteer tutors to bridge the gap and ensure this help can be accessed by every pupil who needs it, not just those who can afford it. 
 

We specifically help pupils facing socio-economic disadvantage and who are at risk of leaving primary or secondary school without reaching national standards in their exams. We work in partnership with schools in different cities and regions across the UK, delivering weekly tutoring in English or maths to those pupils who need it most. 
 

About the opportunity
The Director of Finance and Operations works closely with the CEO to build the organisation, operations and systems to enable us to scale and respond to emerging opportunities.

At Target Ovarian Cancer, we exist to identify and tackle the biggest challenges in ovarian cancer so that it doesn’t limit life.

Too many women are diagnosed late. Too many face barriers to treatment, unequal access to care, or don’t get the support they need. We’re here to change that and we’re at a point where we can go even further.

To do that, we need strong foundations that allow us to grow our impact with confidence. That’s where this role comes in.

Why this role matters

This is not just a finance leadership position. It’s an opportunity to shape how a national charity delivers life-changing impact.

As a key member of our Senior Leadership Team, you will help ensure we have the financial strength, organisational resilience, and operational excellence needed to transform outcomes for women affected by ovarian cancer.

You’ll work closely with our CEO and Board to guide critical decisions, ensuring we’re building something ambitious and sustainable.

What you’ll lead

You will provide strategic leadership across the organisation’s core foundations:

• Financial sustainability – ensuring we can invest boldly and responsibly in our mission
• People and culture – building an inclusive, supportive environment where colleagues thrive
• Governance and risk – maintaining trust, accountability and strong decision-making
• Data and technology – enabling smarter, faster, more impactful work

You’ll bring clarity to complexity, strengthen our foundations, and help us grow with confidence and purpose.

Who we’re looking for

You’re a values-driven leader who combines commercial acumen with a deep commitment to impact.

You might come from the charity, public or private sector — but what matters most is that you:

• Understand how strong financial leadership enables real-world change
• Build trusted relationships and influence at the most senior levels
• Lead teams with empathy, clarity and high expectations
• Care deeply about equity, inclusion and improving outcomes for others
• Are motivated by the opportunity to use your expertise for a meaningful cause

A recognised accountancy qualification (or equivalent experience) is expected.

Equity, diversity and inclusion

We’re committed to building a diverse and inclusive organisation, and particularly welcome applications from people currently underrepresented at senior levels, including those from Black, Asian and minoritised ethnic backgrounds, and disabled or neurodivergent candidates.

If you need any adjustments during the recruitment process or in the role itself, we’ll work with you to make that happen.

Why join Target Ovarian Cancer?

Because this is a moment that matters.

We have a clear strategy, a powerful mission, and the opportunity to make a lasting difference — from improving early diagnosis to strengthening support and amplifying the voices of those affected.

You’ll be joining a passionate, collaborative organisation that is committed to being:

• Supportive
• Expert
• Pioneering
• Empowering
• Impactful

Alongside this, we offer flexible working, strong wellbeing support, and a culture that values your growth and contribution.

Apply

If you want your leadership to make a tangible difference — not just to an organisation, but to lives — we’d love to hear from you.

Send your CV and cover letter via the link by Sunday 17th May, midnight.
