The Coalfields Regeneration Trust (CRT) is the only community wealth building charity dedicated to the regeneration of Britain’s coalfield communities. For over 25 years, the CRT has worked with communities to deliver a breadth of projects creating opportunities for people, strengthening the role of community organisations and identifying place based solutions responsive to the challenges still experienced in former coalmining towns and villages. To support delivery, the CRT has developed an innovative community wealth-building model generating sustainable income to deliver both social and economic value. Enabled by engaging key stakeholders, partners and, most importantly the communities, activities delivered are personalised to meet the needs of the people, the organisations and the place.

This is an exciting opportunity to make a real difference in some of Britain’s most disadvantaged communities. The Head of Operations (England) is a key member of the Senior Management Team and you will have strategic and operational management responsibility for the development of our programmes of work in England. Over four million people live in England’s coalfields, located in six regions (North East, North West, Yorkshire, East Midlands, West Midlands and Kent) and this role requires drive, determination and creativity to ensure our teams deliver and maximise the resources we have for the benefit of our communities.  You will work collaboratively with colleagues and create a shared collective responsibility for ensuring the CRT achieves its strategic missions and ambitious targets outlined in its new strategy 2024 to 2029 – Building Community Wealth.  By working as part of a team across the whole organisation, you will ensure there is a consistent approach to quality, branding and communication with key stakeholder groups.

The role is responsible to the Chief Executive and for contributing to the effective day-to-day running of the CRT, ensuring we demonstrate good governance and fulfil our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion. We are looking for a charismatic leader and communicator, adept at building productive relationships, committed to staff development and with the adaptability, resilience and strength to influence key stakeholders. You will lead the England Programmes Team, ensuring our community assets and resources are deployed to best effect, be experienced in driving change and identifying new opportunities, and have the capability to develop a good idea and see it through to delivery and completion.

We are looking for an exceptional candidate who is passionate about supporting people, shares our values and has the energy and enthusiasm to create new opportunities to build community wealth in the coalfields.
