London, Greater London, United Kingdom User Voice Full time

User Voice exists to reduce reoffending and improve rehabilitation by working with those who are often not heard. One of the main ways that we do this is through our council model, which allows those currently in prison, or on licence, to have their say and contribute ideas and solutions to benefit everyone. We know that if people with convictions are motivated to give feedback on their experience of services, it fuels a culture of continuous improvement within the criminal justice system and gives people a sense of purpose.

The past year has been a period of change and reflection for User Voice. We have invested in our central operations and services, and we now have a solid platform for further growth and innovation for the coming years. We are now looking for a values-led individual who matches our ambition and who can lead our amazing organisation into the next phase of its journey.

As Chief Executive, you will have the opportunity to develop a new strategy that seeks to capitalise on the opportunities that are available to us, while ensuring that we have a diverse and sustainable, long-term funding model. When User Voice first began, lived experience was on the periphery of the criminal justice sector. Now, there are numerous organisations that utilise lived experience in their practice. However, they do not do so to the extent that we do. As our new Chief Executive, you must be energised to push User Voice to where it belongs – the forefront of the sector.

We are looking for a leader who has a genuine desire to see real change for individuals, institutions and the criminal justice system as a whole. You will bring sharp strategic thinking and an enterprising mindset, with the ability to spot new opportunities for us to have an even greater impact, combined with an authentic and inspiring management style that brings the whole team with you on that journey. A natural ambassador and external advocate, you will also be enthusiastic about partnerships and able to ensure that User Voice, as a small charity, has a powerful and credible voice externally.

The journey won't always be easy, and so you will need to be resilient; though you will have an excellent team behind you that is rich with lived experience. And you will also be supported by a committed Board of Trustees, who are all passionate about what we do and who have the enthusiasm to be different and step outside our comfort zone.

We would welcome candidates with no previous experience of being a Chief Executive. More important is understanding the value of lived experience, a commitment to the objects of User Voice and a hunger to see meaningful improvements for those in the criminal justice system. We particularly encourage applications from candidates who bring personal lived experience of the criminal justice system.

If you would like an informal discussion about the role, please email Mark Crowley or Natalie Sanders at Tall Roots.
