About POW UK

Protect Our Winters UK (POW UK) is a charity that rallies the outdoor community to drive meaningful action on climate change. We are a community of athletes, scientists, creatives, collaborators, and business leaders advancing non-partisan policies that protect our world today and for future generations.

We were founded in 2017 by a team of UK outdoor enthusiasts (like you) to mobilise the UK outdoor sports community. We work with athletes, creatives, the outdoor community, and outdoor industry to bring about a net zero society.

The Opportunity: We are looking for a visionary leader to drive its next stage of growth and impact. Over the past several years, POW UK has grown from a founding idea/cause by pro snowboarder Jeremy Jones to the leading voice for the outdoor community in the UK on climate. POW UK punches above its weight as a recognised, followed and loved brand. We need a leader who can establish the structural base (systems and processes) to enable the organisation’s growth and impact, as well as lead the delivery of the strategy set by the Board. The organisation currently has an annual operating budget of £280K, a 4-person team, and a community of athletes, creators, scientists, and business people in the world. With mounting evidence on climate change and its impacts and with sports clubs, organisations and governing bodies starting to understand this, POW UK’s moment is now. There are significant opportunities to nurture our current audience, grow its adjacent audiences, and expand its relevance. We believe the growth potential for POW UK’s positive influence is truly unlimited.

· Movement Building: Inspire and rally the outdoor community to influence climate policy. Engage with sports governing bodies, athletes, scientists, and environmental advocates to amplify our mission.

· Fundraising and Audience Expansion: Develop strategies to grow our donor base and build relationships with environmental organizations and sports communities.

· Public Speaking and Marketing: Represent POW UK at events and in the media. Use compelling storytelling to persuade and inspire action.

· Technical Acumen: Dive deep into climate policy and advocacy. Commit to continuous learning and embrace uncomfortable conversations to advance our thought leadership.

· Passion for the Outdoors: Lead by example with your love for extreme winter sports and the outdoor life. Understand the power of this passion to drive change.

Qualifications:

· Bachelor's degree desired; Master's (e.g., MBA) preferred

· 10+ years of executive leadership experience in for-profit or non-profit organizations

· Proven track record of setting ambitious strategies, building teams, and achieving success

· Experience developing HR policies that promote diversity, inclusivity, equity, and learning
