We are looking for an experienced, empathetic leader with a proven ability in guiding organisations through periods of change and embedding a collaborative, open culture within diverse teams. You’ll be well practised in developing, implementing, and monitoring organisational strategy.

You will lead JRCT through significant change to ensure we continue to reimagine and improve our practices alongside our core mission.

You'll be joining at a time of internal transition towards a new 2028 strategy against a backdrop of external instability and increasing need from those we support.
