About Reprieve

Reprieve works with the most disenfranchised people in society. Our aim is simple: to consign the death penalty and abuses carried out in the name of “counter-terrorism” or “national security” to history, drawing public and political attention to these past harms with a view to preventing them from occurring again.

In our view, you can best judge a society by how it treats prisoners, criminal defendants, and the far-flung targets of an ever-changing counter-terror policy. To us, the rule of law means little if we selectively apply it to people we agree with. It is for all of us. Liberty is always eroded at the margins.

Reprieve’s staff is made up of courageous and committed human rights defenders. Founded in 1999, we provide free legal and investigative support to people facing the death penalty and those victimised by states’ abusive counter-terror policies – rendition, torture, arbitrary detention and extrajudicial killing.

We fight our clients’ cases in courts around the world; investigate their mistreatment; and advocate on their behalf, encouraging public and political debate of human rights issues.

About the role:

The Head of Operations will oversee the day-to-day running of the global operations of Reprieve UK and Reprieve US and our work around the globe.

They will be responsible for assisting with planning, implementing, overseeing, and evaluating the systems, processes and relationships that enable caseworkers, fellows, and consultants to do the challenging work that they do as efficiently, safely and effectively as possible. They will help devise creative solutions to build a flexible and supportive environment in which staff can carry out their work.

The Head of Operations will work closely with and supervise the work of the HR Operations Manager and the Office and Executive Support Officer. Reporting to a member of the Senior Management Team, they will provide support to the Joint Executive Directors as well as broader staff team, Fellows and consultants.

About you:

You will be someone who is confident in overseeing a wide remit including:

• Human Resources
• Security Risk Management incl. Health and Safety and Duty of Care
• Insurance
• Office & Budget Management
• Information Technology & Cyber Security
• General Operations

This role also oversees accounts payable and the annual audit for our sister organisation Reprieve US (working with our US based US qualified accountant).

You are a positive person with a can-do attitude, extensive experience in operations management and security risk management, experience of managing or supervising individuals and teams, proven ability to manage conflicting priorities and a strong problem solver.

The Operations team is a small team that works collaboratively to ensure all areas are covered at all times. As such, you will be willing to chip in and take on tasks of other team members if urgent matters arise or when providing holiday cover.

Further information

This Telephone Team Coach and Supporter Care Officer role is the perfect opportunity to build on your proven ability to get the best from individuals, teams and databases in providing inspirational customer/supporter service.

Greenpeace is an international network of non profit campaigning organisations operating in over 55 countries. Our independence and global reach enable us to stand for positive change through action in order to defend nature and promote peace. We investigate and expose global environmental problems, confront those in positions of power and present alternative solutions.

A key part of your role will be coaching our small team of in-house callers to make outgoing calls that build, retain and strengthen relationships with our supporters: welcoming, thanking and encouraging them to leave a gift in their Will for lasting impact.

You’ll also handle inbound supporter care across a variety of channels – including phone, email and social media – responding to questions and producing engaging personalised replies, as well as writing inspirational copy to answer regularly asked campaign questions.

Location: Islington, London. Our hybrid working model enables us to enjoy the benefits of both office based and remote working. We ask that staff work from the office in Islington 40% of their time, with 20% required as a minimum. Reasonable adjustments as well as specific office based needs will be considered for those with long term health conditions and disabilities.

What we're looking for:

• Experience of coaching and motivating a team to achieve fundraising or supporter experience targets and managing individual performance, holding team members accountable for hitting their goals.
• Experience in a customer or supporter service environment, with the ability to answer large volumes of public enquiries across all communication channels.
• Experience using databases (CRMs) to run regular reports on calling campaigns and individual performance, with the ability to disseminate key insights and data to relevant stakeholders.
• Excellent written communication, with the ability to write engaging responses to enquiries, judging the appropriate tone and content to be used.
• Emotional resilience to recover quickly from setbacks, keep positive and maintain perspective while navigating negative, challenging or emotive interactions.
• Excellent organisational skills, with the ability to prioritise and organise your own work, follow agreed work-plans and meet deadlines.
• Genuine interest and enthusiasm for environmental issues and the work of Greenpeace, with a passion for sharing this with our supporters.

We give you:

You’ll be encouraged to develop both personally and professionally, taking advantage of the wide range of learning and development opportunities available to our staff. We offer great benefits such as a generous pension scheme, subsidised lunches, free yoga and a wealth of well-being resources, just to name a few. Take a look at our Work for Greenpeace pages to find out more about what it’s like to work for us and why you should apply.
