We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Community and Inclusion Director to lead our community in living the mission of L'Arche in our community life, by providing outstanding, person-centred and financially sustainable care and support services, by support for shared community and spirituality, and by engagement with the wider community around us.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead a diverse and talented community of over 100 individuals with and without learning disabilities - people we support, employees, volunteers, long-term friends and members.
  • Ensure the Community's financial sustainability through robust financial planning and management.
  • Foster a culture that maximises the voice and power for people with learning disabilities, and builds listening and collaboration between Community members with and without learning disabilities.
  • Lead and manage a diverse, committed, and engaged leadership team to achieve objectives, set a positive culture, and support the personal and professional growth of our leaders.
  • Cultivate an open, creative, and inclusive spiritual life, inviting everyone in the Community to deepen their collective growth.
  • Support and encourage events that build community belonging.
  • Model, advocate for, and embrace the L'Arche ethos of deep, long-term, and mutually transforming relationships between people with and without learning disabilities.
  • Be a visible representative of L'Arche locally, developing relationships with community houses, surrounding neighbourhoods, local authorities, professional organisations, schools, faith communities, and L'Arche worldwide.
  • Contribute to the national work programmes of L'Arche UK, and collaborate with Community Leaders of other L'Arche Communities, to share skills, best practice and resources.

Requirements:

  • Senior leadership experience in support to adults with learning disabilities (or transferable skills and experience in a closely-related field).
  • Experience leading and managing an organisation to deliver results, and to change in response to risks and opportunities.
  • Good financial planning skills and experience successfully managing a substantial budget.
  • Passionate about person-centred support, authentic relationships, and full opportunities for people with disabilities.
  • Enthusiastic about the values, and mission of L'Arche, with the wisdom to combine our different needs, voices and priorities into an inclusive, dynamic, and nurturing community.
  • Collaborative and resilient leader, skilled in setting culture and direction, coaching people, addressing under-performance, and adapting to various people and styles.
  • Emotionally intelligent, with compassion, self-awareness, courage, integrity, and humility and a readiness to be present and visible to people across the Community.
  • A good listener, able to reflect and lead others in reflective practice, receptive to mentorship and seeking help.
  • Able to listen to the whole community, and foster free speech, innovation, creativity, collaboration and consensus.
  • Effective communicator, adept at adapting to diverse groups and individuals, including those with learning disabilities.
  • Committed to build a diverse community that includes people of different ages, abilities, cultures, nationalities, sexualities, faith perspectives, and life experiences.
