Our ideal candidate will have:

• Experience leading or managing advice services (welfare benefits, housing, health & social care or similar).

• Strong safeguarding knowledge and confidence acting as a safeguarding lead.

• A track record of managing contracts, KPIs and reporting requirements.

• Excellent people skills: you’ll enjoy coaching and developing others, and you’ll know how to get the best from both staff and volunteers.

• The ability to represent ACWG confidently with funders and partners.

If you’re passionate about making a difference for older people and carers, and you’ve got leadership experience in advice services, we’d love to talk.

Why work with us

We’re a values-driven local charity with a culture of freedom and responsibility. That means we trust our people to make decisions, innovate and deliver, while giving them the support they need to succeed.

Benefits include:

• 34 days annual leave pro rata (rising with service up to 39 days including bank holidays)
