Role Purpose
ShelterBox has changed a lot in the last five years, and the humanitarian sector is also evolving as we do, with a much stronger focus on partnerships with local organisations on the front lines of aid delivery. Yet we still send staff and volunteers on visits to programme sites, often taking calculated risks to oversee how we can learn and improve humanitarian operations. Our people are led by strong values of service and dedication, without which we could not serve communities after disaster. We are now seeking to put stronger systems in place to ensure we are getting the best from our staff and volunteers, and that we as an employer are giving them the best possible experience as members of this international organisation.
ShelterBox is searching for an experienced senior people leader with a proven ability to lead through ambiguity and transformation, with a track record of embedding high-performance cultures and navigating complex change in mission-driven environments. The successful candidate will provide leadership to our excellent people team and help to develop and deliver an engaging and effective new organisational people strategy, which must reflect the complexity of a globally distributed organisation, ensuring cultural intelligence, equity, and inclusion are embedded across all people practices.

You will oversee all aspects of the organisation's HR, learning and development, EDI, and well-being functions and a significant proportion of our volunteering support. You will be responsible for leading a function which works collaboratively with other teams to meet the organisation's overall people needs, and which recognises the critical importance of ShelterBox's staff and volunteers in delivering the organisation's ambitious plans.
Reporting directly to the Chief Executive, this role also reports to the Board of Trustees on a quarterly basis on all People matters. This role is also the Executive Team Lead on the Board's People and Risk Committee.
