Chief Executive Officer
£110,000 - £125,000 per annum + benefits
Hybrid / London

Prospectus is proud to be partnering with a leading UK music therapy charity. For over 60 years, the organisation has worked to ensure that music is accessible to all, not just as a creative outlet, but as a powerful tool for connection, communication and care. Its unique, evidence-based practice supports people facing some of life’s most complex challenges, from neurological conditions and developmental delays to mental health difficulties and life-limiting illnesses.

At the heart of the charity’s work is a clear mission: to use music to break down barriers and challenge injustice. With a bold new strategy and a clear national ambition, the organisation is calling for music therapy to be recognised, integrated and accessible as part of the UK’s health and care system.

The charity is now seeking a new Chief Executive Officer to lead the next phase of this journey. This is a significant leadership opportunity for an experienced, purpose-driven executive who can inspire teams, influence national conversations and ensure long-term impact and sustainability.

As CEO, you will be responsible for leading the organisation with clarity, compassion and strategic focus. You will work closely with the Board and Senior Leadership Team to ensure that the charity remains financially resilient, operationally effective and deeply aligned to its values. You will act as a key ambassador for the organisation, building strategic partnerships, engaging with government and funders, and championing the transformative power of music across a wide range of sectors. Internally, you will lead on organisational culture, team wellbeing and inclusive practice, ensuring the charity remains a values-led and mission-driven employer of choice.

We are looking for a leader who brings:

• Significant senior leadership experience, ideally at CEO or Executive Director level, within a complex, purpose-driven organisation

• A strong track record in strategic planning, income growth and organisational transformation

• Excellent communication and influencing skills, with experience representing an organisation at a national level

• Experience working with a Board of Trustees to ensure strong governance and long-term sustainability

• A deep personal commitment to equity, diversity, inclusion, wellbeing and social impact

While direct experience of music therapy is not essential, candidates must demonstrate a strong alignment with the mission and values of the organisation. You will understand the importance of creative expression, human connection and inclusive access to care, and bring the leadership skills to make these values a reality across the UK.

Please see the dedicated microsite located in the job advert on the Prospectus website for a more detailed outline of the role, along with additional information about the organisation and community.

“We were fortunate enough to meet the Spoons volunteers at Oldham and North Manchester. My husband and I couldn’t be more grateful. They’re such a friendly, welcoming face. Having a baby in the NICU is such a stressful, frightening time. It’s not an experience you expect to go through.” [Lee, Shanice and Saskia’s Story].

Spoons is a charity dedicated to supporting families through neonatal care. Their sole aim is to facilitate a community where families who have experienced neonatal care, can come together and feel safe in sharing their experiences and supporting one another. Do you want to form part of the team that support families just like Saskia’s?

The charity was founded in 2015 by Kirsten Mitchell, after she sought support from other parents she met on the neonatal unit. Spoons evolved from the acronym: Supporting Families of Oldham Neonates and over the past 10 years they have continued to grow and now support thousands of families across Greater Manchester.

With an inspirational history, and exciting future ahead, we are delighted to be partnering with this wonderful charity to find them a Fundraising Manager, someone to lead on income generation at this pivotal time.

The Role

The Fundraising Manager will lead on the delivery of a sustainable and diverse fundraising strategy. The main responsibilities will include:

• Developing and delivering a fundraising strategy and annual income plan.
• Growing sustainable income across all fundraising streams, predominantly Community, Individual Giving, Corporate partnerships and Events.
• Building, nurturing and stewarding supporter relationships.
• Overseeing and executing fundraising marketing and communications strategies.

The Person

We are looking for a self-motivated, ambitious individual with a proven track record of delivering fundraising income and a knowledge of a variety of income streams. You should also have an understanding of fundraising regulations, GDPR, and a keenness to keep abreast of fundraising best practice.

Additionally, you should be excellent at building relationships with a variety of stakeholders. You must be organised, driven and resilient, and able to multitask effectively in this varied and interesting role. We are also looking for candidates who are creative with the ability to write compelling communications including social content, campaigns and proposals.

This role is a wonderful opportunity to build on previous success and shape the future of fundraising for Spoons to make a real difference to the families this charity supports.

Why Spoons?

Spoons are often described as “a guiding light” and “a lifeline,” and NHS colleagues say that without Spoons, parents’ experiences on neonatal units would be significantly harder.

Joining the small, but mighty, team at Spoons provides a unique opportunity to become part of something incredible, something that will continue to help families across Greater Manchester at a time they need it more than ever. Not only is the team at the Spoons passionate about the work it does, but also puts huge emphasis on creating a positive working culture that supports staff and makes them feel valued in their roles. With a caring, supportive and ever changing working environment you will also receive a generous holiday allowance, a flexible working culture with sensible work-life balance and access to a range of professional development opportunities.

Is ensuring every family in Greater Manchester affected by neonatal care has the compassionate support they need something you feel passionately about? If so, we would love to hear from you.
