London, United Kingdom Charity People Full time

Charity People is honoured to partner with the award-winning charity My Life Films in their search for an experienced Interim Executive Director. This empowering and impactful charity is excited to welcome an experienced Interim CEO who is eager and motivated to come into My Life Films and make an immediate impact within the organisation.

My Life Films

Position - Interim Executive Director (ED)

Duration -6 months FTC, start mid to late November 2024

Location - Hybrid (3 days from home, one day in central London in a co-working space)

Salary - £50,000 for 4 days a week (FTE £62,500)

About My Life Films

My Life Films is an award-winning charity that uses film and TV to enrich and support the lives of people affected by dementia. This includes My Life TV, our specialist on-demand streaming service, with bespoke curated content designed to improve wellbeing. We are also known for our award-winning life story film service.

My Life TV is carefully put together with a wide range of content to enable people living with dementia to feel stimulated and connected to the world, improving their mental health and supporting their essential care. We work with highly respected content partners as well as produce our own programming in partnership with trusted organisations in the dementia care field and more widely.

About the Role

This is a hugely exciting opportunity for an experienced and confident interim CEO to come into the organisation and lead it during this important transition period, which is where we are shifting our model from in-house sales and marketing to a partner-led approach. We believe this will be the best way to reach and deliver benefits to people affected by dementia. This role will secure this partnership and develop a new strategy for My Life Film's next chapter.

Our current Executive Director is moving on for family reasons, having stewarded the charity and led the development and expansion of My Life TV over the past two years. She will remain available part-time with My Life Films for a short handover period.

Reporting to the Board of Trustees, the Interim ED will be responsible for all aspects of the charity's work and will be passionate about our work supporting people with dementia, entrepreneurial and collaborative, with commercial Business Development, Partnerships, and experience of charity mergers would be beneficial (but is not essential) as we have an experienced Board who will be on hand to support you.

As leader of the My Life Films team, you will also work across governance, finance, income generation, and impact. You will be responsible for delivering My Life Films' immediate strategy and working with the Board of Trustees.


About You

- Progress strategic partnership discussions for My Life TV with existing partners and identified potential partners to move to a wholesale or reseller model for My Life TV, or potentially acquisition of the service by another charity, company or care organisation

- Develop financial and operational models for potential partnerships, including scenario planning and P&L analysis, involving content, tech, marketing, and charitable impact. Lead negotiations, bringing in commercial, accounting, or legal support as needed.

- Work with the Board to create a strategic plan for My Life TV and new dementia-focused services, aligning with the charity's mission.

- Oversee daily operations, including finance, income generation, content production, partnerships, and reporting.

- Secure necessary funding through trusts, foundations, care groups, and events, representing My Life Films to stakeholders.

- Cultivate a positive environment, recruit and restructure as needed and provide coaching to enhance team performance.

How to apply

To express your interest in this role, send your CV and a cover letter of no more than one side explaining how you believe you can support us as our interim ED, the relevant skills and experience you bring, and your motivation for applying. We will review applications on a rolling basis, so do not delay. Expressions of interest must be submitted by 6th November to Senior Appointments at Charity People

For over thirty years, we've recruited extraordinarily talented people into rewarding and vital positions for some of the biggest and smallest non-profit organisations in the UK and internationally. We also work in partnership with organisations that support diversity in the workplace, recognising the need for continual diverse partnerships in our work. We're proud to be the chosen recruitment partner for many Charities, Universities, Membership bodies and Institutes.
