Trust manager jobs in orpington, england

We're looking for a passionate, values-driven CEO to guide our charity into its next inspiring chapter. 

The Coalition registered as a charity in December 2023. We have spent the last 18 months developing the infrastructure of the organisation so we can meet the Charity Commission requirements. We developed a short strategic plan for a 2 year period to ensure we had all of the foundations in place to capitalise on our new charity status. This strategic plan ends in November 2025.

The CEO will set a new five-year strategy for the organisation by building on the solid foundations of the 2 year strategic plan and maximising the opportunities that charity status provides.

The CEO will have oversight across the whole organisation, often acting as the external ‘face’ of The Coalition with our stakeholders and partners. As such, they will represent us, and enable the Disabled community to have their voices heard to achieve equality and independence for Disabled people and those with long-term health conditions.  The CEO will promote the Social Model of Disability and champion accessibility across all services in Surrey.

We are excited to partner with Latimer Congregational Church, an inspiring and historic church set in the heart of East London. This is a church with a rich past and a bold vision for the future. Their hope is to revitalise their presence in the local community by creating a welcoming Christian retreat and building a thriving, active church family.

The church is already well-positioned for this next chapter, with a building that includes accommodation facilities, a dedicated training area, a basketball court, and plenty of space and resources to grow. As part of the Congregational Federation, Latimer benefits from a bottom-up leadership structure, which means the direction of the church is shaped by its people, empowering the congregation to take ownership and lead with vision and heart.

We are seeking a pioneering and visionary Pioneer Minister to lead this exciting new chapter. This is a unique opportunity to build something from the ground up, to innovate, and to make a real difference in a diverse and dynamic community. We are looking for someone to bring vision, energy, and creativity to a church at the heart of its community. With excellent facilities at your disposal, you’ll be well-placed to develop a ministry that has real impact. You'll also have the chance to build strong local relationships, including exploring interfaith dialogue and creating deeper connections within the community. If you have a passion for reimagining what church and community can look like in today’s world, then we would love to hear from you.

The successful candidate must be able to demonstrate:

• A deep faith in Jesus, a strong sense of vocation, and a passion for evangelism and creative outreach.
• A passion and ability for planning and leading Gospel-centred teaching and outreach that is engaging, enjoyable, and impactful.
• Creativity and innovation in developing fresh, engaging resources to reach and minister to the missing generations.
• Experience in pastoral care within the church, and a natural ability to build trusted relationships with those outside the church community.

While theological qualifications are valued, relevant experience will be considered more heavily.

Working closely with the CEO and the Executive Team, you will lead our business development efforts, build strategic partnerships, and position YMCA St Paul’s Group to grow our reach and relevance. While the initial focus will likely be in Housing and Support, we also see huge potential in Health & Wellbeing services and beyond.

We are looking for an enterprising and inclusive leader with a strong track record of business development within commissioned or regulated services. You will bring commercial acumen, a collaborative spirit, and a natural ability to build relationships with a wide range of stakeholders. While housing experience is valuable, we also welcome candidates with transferable knowledge and experience from other regulated sectors. You do not need to be of Christian faith, but you must be able to respect our ethos and uphold the values we live by.

At YMCA St Paul’s Group, it’s our people who make the difference. We’re committed to creating an environment where colleagues feel a deep sense of belonging and are supported to grow and thrive. That’s why we were recently recognised as one of the UK’s Best Workplaces for Development by Great Places to Work – an achievement that reflects our culture of care, learning and continuous improvement.

We hope that, as you learn more about us, you’ll be excited by the opportunity to be part of our next chapter – and the difference we can make, together.
