We're working with SSAFA the Armed Forces charity to appoint a new Chief Executive As one of the UK’s most prominent tri-service charities, SSAFA provides vital practical, emotional, and financial support services for our Forces, veterans and their families: it is essential and life-changing work that ensures no one battles alone. In its 139th anniversary year, SSAFA has gone through a significant transformation towards becoming an even more resilient and robust organisation with sustainable finances, agile resources and an inclusive culture. This puts SSAFA in a strong position to continue to respond to the needs of its beneficiaries and make a difference for people who selflessly put their lives on the line day in, day out. SSAFA is now looking for its next Chief Executive to work with their National Chair and Board of Trustees to determine a clear strategy to meet its objectives, lead through organisational and cultural change, and deliver on our mission and vision alongside its colleagues and volunteers. This is a wonderful opportunity for an exceptional leader, with a deep empathy for the military and mission of SSAFA, to drive forward the organisation and have a tangible and transformative impact on the lives of those who have dedicated themselves to protecting and serving our country. We are looking for people who are passionate about what SSAFA do - a Chief Executive who brings strategic and commercial acumen from having held other senior leadership roles and driven growth and change in comparably large and complex organisations. Given the diverse and dispersed nature of their work and teams, we are looking for someone who naturally empowers and motivates teams to perform at their best.

I was delighted to be part of an extremely important conversation hosted by Sara Weller yesterday to discuss how we can improve the representation of people with disabilities in executive and non executive roles. This is an area of work that I feel very passionate about and we have seen how programmes such as the @REACH Programme (https://lnkd.in/du9eSe-i run in conjunction with Saxton Bampfylde and the Cabinet Office to support Civil Servants with disabilities accelerate in their career) can really have an impact. However, there is much more that we can do and that we as leaders in Executive Search can take responsibility for so I'm delighted to be part of the conversation to move this forwards #disabilityinclusion #abilitynotdisability #disabledtalent Business Disability Forum

New role opportunity: Chair, Orbit Group Orbit is changing. As a socially driven and commercially minded not-for-profit organisation, we are one of the country’s largest housing providers, as well as building around 1,000 new homes a year, with highly engaged and hardworking colleagues, strong financials and a strong reputation in all areas of governance, compliance, and safety. However, despite having made significant improvements to our homes and services, as a purpose driven organisation we are not satisfied with aspects of our performance, including our tenant satisfaction scores– we know we can and must do better. We are looking for a new Chair to play a vital role in driving this ambitious change agenda at the highest levels. Along with board and executive colleagues the Chair will help shape and deliver planned changes to our governance structure, position Orbit confidently in the fast-evolving external landscape, and personally amplify our determined focus on our customers.
