Chief Executive

Description:

Your role will be to lead us as we refine our operations, maximise our impact, and make the largest possible contribution to the mission of racial justice in the UK. We want to identify where we can have the greatest effect, and ensure that we are structured in a way that allows us to focus our efforts on nurturing sustained racial justice. Working closely with our new Chair and our outstanding board, you’ll shape an ambitious strategy, define what success looks like, and set the direction of travel.

Candidates will combine a lifelong passion for the work that we do with exemplary professional competence. You’ll have the full management repertoire, and an understanding of how knowledge and research businesses thrive would be a distinct advantage. Calm, organised and confident in a range of contexts, you’ll rapidly gain the respect and support of the team and the wider sector, and will play a deft and decisive part in helping us expand our reach. While you don’t need to be an expert in everything, you’ll bring both the curiosity to learn quickly, and the generosity to recognise when someone else is better placed to make change happen.
