Kaleidoscope Health and Care is looking for a chief executive to lead our consultancy business into its next decade.
Hello, we're Kaleidoscope. We are a consultancy of a different kind. We bring people together to create change that works, and over the past decade, we've helped hundreds of organisations do harder things than they thought possible. Our founder is moving on this summer and we’re looking for the person to lead our next chapter - someone who understands that how you build matters as much as what you build. We're employee-owned, and committed to being the kind of organisation we help others become. That's not a tagline. It shapes how we work every day.
A bit about the role
This is not a caretaker role. Over the past decade we’ve built something truly special: a kind, commercially serious, employee-owned consultancy that does exceptional work in health and care.
This role combines strategic leadership of the organisation with hands-on responsibility for its commercial sustainability, culture, and external relationships. You'll work alongside a talented, committed team, in a self-managing organisation to build our consultancy business aligned to our purpose and values as an organisation.
The salary is £95,882 to £106,010. Our preference is for full-time, but we will consider part-time at 30+ hours / week.
A bit about you
You'll know health, care and the public sector. Not just as a sector to work in, but one you care about. You'll be comfortable with the commercial realities of running a consultancy - P&L, resource allocation, business development. And you'll have the kind of presence and credibility that makes clients want to work with you and colleagues want to follow you.
We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds. We particularly encourage applications from people who are underrepresented in senior health and care leadership.
The application deadline is 8am on Friday, 12 June 2026.
Get in touch with us…
If you need any reasonable adjustments for the application process or have any specific questions.
There's a full candidate pack available, and an Ask Me Anything session at midday (12.00pm BST) on Thursday 21 May, open to anyone considering applying.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
Salary: £49,282 starting salary (salary range will increase to max £52,413 via the length of service) per annum pro rata plus £4,324 Inner London Weighting if based in London per annum pro rata.
Contract: This post is offered on a part time 12 month fixed-term maternity cover basis. The substantive post-holder is entitled to 12 months of maternity leave but may return at any point during this period with appropriate notice. Your employment will end on their return.
Hours: Part-time 21 hours per week (excluding lunch breaks) – flexible working requests will be considered.
Location: Any Refugee Action office: London, Manchester, Bradford. We will consider UK-based hybrid working option.
About Refugee Action
Refugee Action exists to defend the right to safety that we all share. We’re fighting the hostility that has a devastating, daily impact on refugees and our communities. We do this with life changing support and system changing campaigns that bring us all closer to safety, dignity and hope.
We do this work because we believe in taking action. But fighting for a fair asylum system for people seeking safety is no longer enough. Decades of degrading rhetoric and policies have created a hostile environment that has systematically dehumanised refugees. We’re building a future where people forced to flee the homes they loved have their rights upheld, receive a fair decision, essential support and help to thrive here, not just survive. Our vision is that every refugee seeking safety in the UK can thrive as part of a welcoming, anti-racist society.
It's an exciting time to be part of Refugee Action as we embark on a new Theory of Change as part of our seven-year strategy. We believe the best hope for real change will come from strong, connected movements that are skilled, united, and influential, with lived experience meaningfully at the centre. Our future role as a national charity will increasingly be to support, convene, and strengthen this movement while continuing to deliver services where they have the greatest strategic impact.
About the role
You will lead Refugee Action's Major Partnerships team, building and delivering a sustainable programme that raises significant income from major donors, trusts, corporates, statutory and foundation funders.
We're looking for a hands-on leader who can hit the ground running. The organisation has been through a period of change, and this role is central to leading the team through the transition by creating clarity, stability and shared purpose – restoring confidence, establishing clear ways of working, and embedding a culture of proactive new business development.
You will take ownership of rebuilding the team's foundations – setting direction, defining processes, and creating the conditions for high performance. Alongside this, you'll actively champion a new business mindset, working with the team to identify, cultivate and convert prospective donors and funders.
Finally, you'll ensure that Refugee Action's commitment to removing barriers to power, centring lived experience and anti-racist practice is embedded across all activity.
About you
You are a self-starter and a builder – someone who takes pride in leaving teams stronger than you found them. You'll be energised rather than daunted by stepping into a team that needs direction and renewed momentum.
You will bring significant leadership experience across at least two areas of Major Donor, Corporate, Trust or Statutory fundraising, with a track record of securing and stewarding gifts of £100k+. You'll be equally confident driving new business as you are managing existing relationships – and you'll be comfortable influencing senior stakeholders internally and externally.
A proactive problem solver, you'll be skilled at bringing colleagues together, navigating complexity, and turning challenges into opportunities. You won't need the path to be clear to move forward — you'll help create it.
To succeed in the role, you will need to demonstrate:
Those with lived experience as a refugee are particularly encouraged to apply
