Julie’s Bicycle is seeking a visionary, collaborative and values-led Chief Executive to lead the organisation into its next chapter.

About Julie’s Bicycle

Julie’s Bicycle is a pioneering not-for-profit organisation mobilising the arts and culture sectors to take action on the climate crisis. For nearly two decades, we have been at the forefront of the creative climate movement, working to put culture and creativity at the heart of climate action. We believe culture has the power to challenge, inspire and move people; to shape how we think, feel and act; and to help transform our future now.

Our work brings together cultural and environmental expertise to support practical action, build leadership, inform policy and strengthen collective impact. Through our programmes, tools, training, consultancy, campaigns and partnerships, we support artists, creative organisations, policymakers and changemakers to respond to the climate, nature and justice crises with confidence, imagination and purpose. To date, Julie’s Bicycle has worked with thousands of organisations and individuals, in the UK and globally, helping to equip people, places and policies with the knowledge and power to drive sustainable change.

Why this opportunity has arisen

This is a defining moment for Julie’s Bicycle. After 19 years of inspirational founding leadership, our Founder and Chief Executive, Alison Tickell, is stepping down from the role. As we approach our 20th anniversary, Julie’s Bicycle is renewing its strategy and theory of change. The climate, nature and justice crises continue to evolve, and so too must the leadership, partnerships and solutions needed to create meaningful change. This creates a significant opportunity for a new Chief Executive to honour a powerful legacy while shaping a bold, clear and ambitious next chapter for the organisation.

What we are looking for

We are looking for an exceptional Chief Executive who can provide strategic and organisational leadership, strengthen Julie’s Bicycle’s voice and influence, and ensure the organisation continues to deliver impact at the intersection of culture and climate. The successful candidate will work closely with an experienced Board and dedicated staff team to refine and deliver our next phase of strategy, sharpen our priorities, build sustainable income and communicate our distinctive value with clarity and conviction.

This is both an outward-facing and deeply organisational role. Externally, our next Chief Executive will be a visible and credible advocate across culture, climate and environmental networks, able to build partnerships, engage funders and policymakers, convene people around shared purpose, and speak persuasively about the role of arts and culture in responding to the climate crisis. Internally, they will inspire, empower and support a talented and values-led team, strengthening leadership capability, systems, decision-making and accountability while protecting the inclusive, creative and collaborative culture that makes Julie’s Bicycle special.

We are keen to hear from experienced senior leaders with a track record of organisational and people leadership, strategic development, partnership building and income generation. We expect our CEO to demonstrate a strong understanding of the relationship between culture, climate and wider social and environmental change, and to bring a deep knowledge and experience of the UK cultural landscape and key institutions and stakeholders, and/or a deep knowledge and experience of national and international climate policy and advocacy environments. However, we are also keen to hear from you if you are passionate about the intersection of culture and climate/environmental issues, but would benefit from a period of phased support to fully immerse yourself in the breadth of issues, sectors and contexts in which JB operates.  

This is an opportunity to lead a pioneering organisation with purpose and ambition: protecting what makes Julie’s Bicycle distinctive, strengthening the foundations that will help it thrive, and turning the power of culture into meaningful and lasting climate action.

• Lead and develop a small finance team, setting clear expectations, building capability and creating a culture of accountability and high performance.
• Play an active role in wider organisational leadership, bringing constructive challenge and financial insight to decisions beyond the traditional finance remit.

Noah's Ark Children's Hospice provides specialist care and support to babies, children and young people with life-limiting or life-threatening conditions, alongside their families. Its purpose-built hospice, The Ark, opened in 2019 and provides a unique environment where children can receive specialist care, therapy, bereavement support and family services in a safe and welcoming setting.

Rated 'Outstanding' by the Care Quality Commission, Noah's Ark supports families across North and Central London and Hertsmere, delivering care wherever it is needed - in the family home, within the community or at The Ark.

Trusts and Grants Manager

Little Flowers Club

Salary: £35,000-£42,000 pro rata for 2/3 days per week
Location: Remote
Reporting to: CEO/ Founder

Every child deserves to feel safe, valued and capable of growth, whatever their starting point. That's the belief Little Flowers Club was built on.

We're a not-for-profit providing trauma-informed support for children and young people with SEN and complex, overlapping needs, through our Alternative Provision service in schools and settings across Gloucestershire, and our Stay & Play holiday clubs, giving SEN children a safe, sensory-friendly space during school closures.

Now we're looking for a Trusts and Grants Manager to secure the funding that makes this work possible.

The role

This is a brand-new, standalone fundraising role, and a genuinely flexible one. You'll own the trusts, foundations and statutory funding pipeline from end to end: spotting the right opportunities, writing applications that land, and keeping funders close so they come back again.

You'll work directly with our CEO to shape an income strategy built on trusts, grants and statutory funds, with real scope to make your mark from day one.

It's an ideal fit if you're an experienced freelance or part-time fundraiser looking for a role with genuine autonomy and immediate impact.

What you'll do

• Build and manage a trusts and grants pipeline, keeping applications and reports on track
• Research funders that align with our services and strategic goals
• Assess eligibility and funding guidelines to prioritise the strongest opportunities
• Write compelling applications, proposals and reports that bring our impact to life
• Keep clean records of applications, outcomes and reporting deadlines
• Track funding performance against targets, flagging gaps early
• Steward funder relationships to build long-term, repeat support
• Work with the team to pull together impact data, case studies and programme detail for bids

What you'll bring

• A proven track record of winning five- and six-figure grants from trusts, foundations and/or statutory funders
• Strong bid writing and reporting skills
• The organisation to manage multiple deadlines independently
• Confident written and verbal communication
• Relationship-building skills that put funders at ease
• A good head for budgets and project finances
• Comfort with Microsoft Office and fundraising CRMs
• The self-motivation to work independently in a small team

Nice to have: experience fundraising for SEN, youth or community services; CRM implementation experience; knowledge of Gloucestershire's funding landscape.

• Hybrid (London), 3 days a week in-person with the team at GoodWork HQ, Warren Street.

About the role

We’re looking for a Senior Programme Officer to join our team, taking ownership of programme delivery while also building the systems and structures that help our programmes grow. You’ll join as a senior member of our programmes team, taking a leadership role across our programme design and delivery, as well as contributing to the strategic direction of our work with young people. You’ll report to our Programme Manager.

This role will involve:

Programme Management

• You’ll take ownership of end-to-end delivery across multiple programmes, managing recruitment, onboarding and logistics.
• You’ll independently scope, plan and deliver programmes, setting clear milestones and flagging early where timelines or expectations need to shift.
• You’ll recruit, onboard and manage volunteers, ensuring we deliver a great volunteer experience and maximising impact for our young people.
• You’ll work with our Programme Manager to scope and deliver strategic projects across the programmes team, using data, feedback and learning to improve our programmes over time and looking for opportunities to strengthen our systems, processes and quality.

Programme Delivery

• You’ll provide 1:1 support to young people, checking in on their progress and goals, and offering advice, support and accountability throughout their journey.
• You’ll design and deliver training for young people, alongside information sessions and training for our corporate partners and volunteers. This will include taking ownership of specific content areas, and supporting more junior team members to build confidence and consistency in facilitation.
• You’ll uphold a rigorous approach to safeguarding, making sure the welfare of the young people we support is prioritised throughout our work.

Stakeholder Engagement

• You’ll lead stakeholder engagement at all levels, from scheduling volunteering days with corporate partners, to checking in with employer partners on how young people are progressing in their roles.
• You’ll support youth engagement and outreach activity where needed.

Team Contribution and Leadership

• You’ll line manage up to two members of the programmes team, holding regular check-ins, providing feedback, and supporting their goal-setting, development and retention.
• You’ll develop others through mentorship, guidance and feedback, particularly in areas where you have stronger knowledge or experience.
• You’ll support hiring, onboarding and training as the team grows.
• You’ll help shape the organisation for the future, sharing feedback and ideas, and researching, proposing and testing new approaches that support team and organisational learning.

What we're looking for

We’re especially interested in candidates with demonstrable experience owning programme delivery and managing others, alongside strengths in areas like curriculum development, volunteer management, or monitoring and evaluation. You don’t need to have worked in youth employment or the charity sector before, but a commitment to our mission and good understanding of the barriers to work faced by young people from low-income backgrounds is essential.

This is an experienced hire role, and we’re looking for someone with solid professional experience, including some prior experience managing or mentoring others, who can apply sound judgement and hold real ownership in a fast-moving environment. You don’t need to have a degree.

Programme ownership and delivery.

• You have a track record of independently planning and delivering a programme or project end-to-end, setting your own milestones and adapting when timelines or expectations shift.
• You’re comfortable managing multiple priorities at once, and delivering to a high standard in a fast-paced environment.

Line management and development of others.

• You’ve supported someone else’s development directly - through formal line management or informal mentoring - holding check-ins, giving constructive feedback, and helping them grow.
• You’re someone others can turn to when they need guidance, particularly in areas where you have stronger knowledge or experience.

Strategic thinking and problem solving.

• You can think creatively, spot where a system, process or piece of delivery isn’t working, and take the initiative to improve it.
• You respond positively when things don’t go to plan, and can manage both the day-to-day detail and the bigger picture.

Communication and facilitation.

• You have excellent written and verbal communication skills, with good attention to detail.
• You’re confident facilitating workshops and delivering training yourself, and able to help less experienced colleagues build their own confidence in the room.

Relationship building.

• You’re comfortable building relationships with a wide range of people, including partners and volunteers, and representing the organisation in a warm and professional way.
• You’re able to build trusting relationships with young people. You approach others with empathy, warmth and good judgement.

Resilience and a growth mindset.

• You can operate well in uncertainty, learn as you go, and stay motivated through challenges. Adaptability and perseverance are crucial to the success of the young people on our programme, and it’s important that our team models these behaviours too.

We work with a diverse group of young people from underserved communities. We encourage applications from candidates from minoritised ethnic backgrounds, and those who have lived experience relevant to our programme - particularly non-graduates and those from lower socioeconomic backgrounds.

How we work 

We’re a small but fast-growing team. You’ll join our staff team (and office dog, Annie) working day-to-day in the business, but will also engage with young people, our funders and partners, our Board, and many of the amazing volunteers who help us deliver our programme.

We use Slack, Notion and Claude day-to-day to keep in touch and support our work across the team. Our team works together in-person at least three days a week at GoodWork HQ, our beautiful space on Warren Street in central London where we host events, deliver training and work with our community.

You’ll need to be able to attend occasional in-person events, including possible evening sessions for which time off in lieu will be given. You should also expect to attend regular in-person meetings with our London-based partners.

Life at GoodWork

Making GoodWork a great place to work is hugely important to us, and as a small charity we’re continuously working to improve our offer. For now, our team benefits from:

• Personal training budget to invest as you’d like, as well as access to more in-person and online training through our membership of London Youth and the Charity Learning Consortium
• Access to individual coaching to support professional development with qualified coaches, through our corporate partners
• Quarterly official team socials and ad hoc team social activities, recent highlights have included a team Iftar, pottery painting, a Monopoly Deal and Pizza Night and team crafting lunchtime
