The successful candidate must have proven experience of working as an executive manager at both strategic and operational levels.

You will have outstanding leadership skills, with a passion for empowering others and a strong track record of working in partnership with a diverse range of stakeholders, including service users, staff, volunteers, funders, politicians, local businesses and the trustees of the charity. You will have an aptitude for fundraising, and will be able to demonstrate success in securing local authority grants as well as in building and maintaining funding relationships with trusts, corporate organisations and individual donors.

You must have a strong empathy for older people, their families and carers and place the needs of service users at the centre of everything you do. A deep understanding of the challenges facing charitable organisations is critical for success. Experience in the charity sector is not essential. However, where it does not exist, a drive to learn and understand the sector quickly is required.
