Hearing Dogs for Deaf People

2 months ago


Buckingham, United Kingdom Green Park Ltd. Full time

**Deputy Director of Estates Management**

Hearing Dogs for Deaf People are passionate about transforming deaf people’s lives and using dogs to do that. By training hearing dogs to not only become life-changers who alert their deaf partners to important sounds such as doorbells and fire alarms, they also become loyal, loving companions that unlock confidence and reduce isolation for those with hearing loss.

There are at least 50,000 children with hearing loss in the UK, around half of whom are born with hearing loss. An estimated 1.2 million people in the UK have severe or profound deafness, and 1 in 5 people in the UK have hearing loss - that’s 12 million people. Hearing loss can lead to withdrawal from social situations, emotional distress, loneliness, and depression. Hearing loss can increase the risk of dementia by up to five times.

We are seeking to appoint a new Deputy Director of Estates Management to join a fantastic team; led by a strong executive leadership team, a skilled Board and a network of dedicated volunteers who deliver brilliantly.

Hearing Dogs for Deaf People are in a robust and financially stable position, having recovered well from the challenges that the voluntary sector faced during the pandemic years. With a fantastic new CEO at the helm to lead the charity forward with a strong strategy that will enable the charity to realise its ambitions and help more people with hearing loss, this is a great opportunity to join the team.

The Hearing Dogs operations are based at The Grange near Princes Risborough in Buckinghamshire and The Beatrice Wright Centre in Bielby, Yorkshire. Both are large estates with a variety of functions including dog training flats & outdoor training fields, administration offices, accommodation and a restaurant. Both sites have planning permission submissions in progress that could result in multimillion-pound developments.

As such, we are seeking a Deputy Director of Estates Management to be based at The Grange with regular visits to Yorkshire. This exciting role is wide ranging, from day-to-day management of the maintenance staff and responsibility for the health & safety at both sites, through to the creation of long-term rolling renewal programmes, and oversight of the planned development at the two sites.

Both of the sites are regularly visited by many of the 3,000 volunteers and 200 staff so the role requires someone who relishes dealing with people as well as the infrastructure of an organisation.

If you are looking to make a difference within a caring and compassionate charity, and Hearing Dogs for Deaf People sparks your enthusiasm, then we would love to hear from you.

Closing date**:11:59pm Sunday 28th April 2024
