7 days ago
York/Hybrid but ideally need to be based in York office 2/3 days per week
About the role
We are working to speed up and support the transition to a more equitable and just future, free from poverty, in which people and planet can flourish. Inspired by the work of our founder over a century ago, today we are an independent, social change organisation, with an endowment, working across all nations of the UK. We also provide housing and care services in Yorkshire and the North East.
We now have an exciting opportunity to fill a new role, providing senior-level advice, leadership and support across a range of issues relating to the sound running of the company.
Working closely with the Group CEO and the Managing Director, as well as Trustees and Board Members and the Executive teams, you will oversee the Group’s specialist governance, planning, performance and risk functions, helping to ensure the sound running of the organisation.
You will ensure the CEO is fully supported in their role by assisting with planning and prioritisation, acting on their behalf for delegated matters, supporting them in a range of ad hoc issues raised and nurturing external relationships on behalf of the CEO and the organisation. Working alongside the executive, you will also work on the Foundation’s mission-related work, helping to shape aspects of it by leading on cross-organisation issues and priorities in addition to aspects of organisational strategy.
About you
As Associate Director CEO’s Office, you will have experience working in a complex organisation with a strong understanding of the importance of good governance and how to ensure good practice in this area. Experience in line-management of high-performing teams and leading on the planning and performance of complex work programmes are both key for this role. Drawing on your experience working with Executive teams and Boards (or equivalent), you will be comfortable handling complex and challenging matters sensitively and will be able to operate at a strategic level.
A dynamic leader, someone who can work with complexity to shape the direction of travel, you will be results-oriented, accurate and thorough, with a real passion and energy for getting things done. A natural listener and collaborator and a role model for diversity and inclusion, you will have the ability to empower managers and teams to promote the Group’s values and mission.
About us
We are an independent social change organisation working to speed up and support the transition to a more equitable and just future, free from poverty, in which people and planet can flourish. We are a registered housing association and care provider in Yorkshire and the North East. We are two important influencing organisations with an ambitious agenda for inspiring positive change in the UK in line with our vision of a prosperous and poverty free UK.
