Director of Programmes
London (with flexibility for one day of remote working per week)
£72,000 – £92,000 per annum
Our client is a fast-growing charity using the power of football to change lives. They run accessible, high-quality football programmes for thousands of young people across London, regardless of their background or ability to pay.
In just six years, they’ve grown from a bold idea to reaching 6,000 young people every week. Their ambition is to reach 20,000 by 2028. To get there, they need a strategic operator to lead the next phase of their growth.
They’re looking for a Director of Programmes with a proven ability to scale services, build systems that support consistent delivery, and ensure quality is never compromised. This is not a frontline delivery or coaching role, it’s a senior leadership position that combines strategic oversight, operational rigour, and cultural leadership.
You may come from a background in large-scale event operations, network-based service models, or high-growth commercial environments where building for scale was central to your role. Whether you’ve grown delivery infrastructure for a logistics platform, designed consistent customer experiences across digital and in-person touchpoints, or codified a service model for expansion, you’ll understand how to scale something complex with consistency and care. At our client’s organisation, the product is the experience they deliver to thousands of young people each week and they’re looking for someone who can ensure that experience remains exceptional as they grow.
You’ll lead a growing team, shape delivery strategy, and build systems that support high performance across all programmes. Football experience isn’t essential, but you’ll need to understand and value the role it plays in engaging and inspiring young people.
The successful candidate will bring:
-
Proven experience designing and scaling programme or product delivery in a fast-growth, impact-focused or operationally complex environment
-
Strong operational and strategic leadership, with the ability to codify delivery models, build scalable systems, and maintain quality at pace
-
A data-informed mindset, with confidence using insight, analytics, and digital tools to drive performance and decision-making
-
Experience leading and developing teams, fostering a high-performance culture, and collaborating effectively across functions such as digital, marketing, fundraising, and partnerships
-
A strong understanding of safeguarding, risk management, and quality assurance, particularly in youth or community settings
-
Deep personal alignment with our client’s mission and the belief in sport as a tool for social change
This is a rare opportunity to shape a much-loved product at scale and to ensure no young person is left behind because of where they’re from or what they can afford.

That’s why we’ll continue to develop partnerships, invest where it’s needed and build a fairer future, together.
About the role
Sitting on Leeds Community Foundation’s senior leadership team, the Director of Philanthropy and Partnerships will develop a new income generation strategy, focusing on high-value, sustainable philanthropy, and a new proactive Communications strategy showcasing the Foundation as the go-to place for philanthropy in Leeds and Bradford.
