Could you provide the strategic financial, governance and operational leadership that helps Shine thrive? 

Shine is seeking an exceptional Director of Finance, Governance & Operations to join our Senior Leadership Team and help shape the future of our national charity. 

Working with the Chief Executive and Board of Trustees, you will provide strategic leadership across finance, governance and operations for Shine and its trading subsidiary, ensuring the charity remains financially sustainable, well governed and operationally resilient.

Closing date: 16th October 2026

In July 2026, following almost two and a half years of work and nearly two decades as a Faculty, we became the College of Intensive Care Medicine: an independent charity with our own Board of Trustees, governance and voice. Reaching this point has been a significant achievement. Now comes the next chapter: building an organisation that is genuinely independent, financially sustainable and equipped to lead the specialty for the future.

This role sits at the heart of that transformation.

Organisationally, we are creating a College from what was previously a faculty function – establishing our own culture, values, policies, systems and operating model while managing a careful and constructive separation from the Royal College of Anaesthetists (RCoA), our long-standing host and continuing close partner.

Financially, we begin with an established income base, derived predominantly from subscriptions and examinations. The Executive Director will lead the development of a more diverse and resilient financial model, strengthening income and ensuring long-term sustainability without compromising our charitable purpose, governance or commitment to members.

For our people, we need to build our own workforce and operating model while supporting colleagues through a genuine change in employer and organisational identity. This will require clarity, empathy and strong leadership – alongside an unwavering focus on maintaining the services that almost 5,000 members rely on.

THE ROLE

We are therefore looking for an Executive Director who has successfully led organisations through significant transformation; who understands how to build financial sustainability and diversify income; and who can bring people with them through complex and meaningful change.

You will bring the strategic and financial credibility to earn the confidence of our Trustees and partners at the RCoA, alongside the emotional intelligence and collaborative leadership needed to unite staff, members and the wider clinical community behind the College’s future.

This is a rare opportunity to shape a new professional College at the moment of its creation: establishing its identity, culture and operating model while building the foundations for long-term independence and impact.

Could you help put people and community at the heart of Abingdon’s historic Abbey Buildings?

The Friends of Abingdon Abbey Buildings Trust is conserving and enhancing these nationally important Grade I listed medieval buildings and, with support from The National Lottery Heritage Fund, delivering an ambitious programme of activities alongside the building project.

We want to build meaningful relationships with local people and organisations – not just for the life of the project, but to help establish the Abbey Buildings as a welcoming, accessible and well-used community and heritage space for the future.

We’re now looking for an experienced and enthusiastic Community Officer to join our small team and help make that happen.

About the role

This is a varied, hands-on and outward-facing role. You’ll be working directly with people as well as doing the practical organisation that turns ideas into successful activities.

You’ll:

• help plan, organise and deliver activities and sessions with community groups, schools and other participants;
• build and maintain relationships with local groups, organisations, schools and networks;
• help people find opportunities to engage with and use the Abbey Buildings;
• take responsibility for agreed areas of work, from planning through to delivery and follow-up;
• support the development and day-to-day coordination of volunteer involvement;
• contribute to evaluation, communications and social media; and
• work alongside the Programme Manager, freelancers, partners, volunteers and others involved in the project.

The programme will continue to develop over the three years, so there will be plenty of scope to bring your own ideas, experience and expertise to the role.

This job could be for you if…

You have practical experience of community engagement and of delivering activities or sessions directly with people.

You’re confident making new connections and building positive relationships with different groups and organisations. You’re also organised and practical enough to turn conversations and ideas into things that actually happen.

You enjoy working collaboratively, but are equally comfortable taking responsibility for your own areas of work and seeing them through.

Most importantly, you’re enthusiastic about involving people and creating opportunities for a wide range of people to participate.

Heritage experience is welcome, but it isn’t essential. We’re interested in the skills and experience you can bring from community, voluntary, arts, cultural, education or other relevant settings.

Community & Individual Giving Fundraiser

Bethlehem Care & Hospice Trust

Salary: £34,000-£40,000 FTE, pro rata depending on experience  |  Hours: 14.8-22.2 hours per week (0.4-0.6 FTE)  |  Location: Home-based; applicants must be based in Yorkshire  |  Contract: 12 months initially, with a view to extension subject to funding and performance

Build the community of supporters who will sustain Palestine's first and only licensed palliative care service

Bethlehem Care & Hospice Trust (BCHT) is a small UK charity supporting the development of specialist palliative and hospice care in Palestine. In August 2023, the service we support became the first licensed palliative care service in Palestine. Since then, its specialist nurses have cared for more than 350 patients and their families and delivered more than 5,000 home visits.

We now need to build the community of supporters who will help secure that service for the future. We are investing in professional fundraising for the first time and are looking for an enthusiastic, relationship-focused Community & Individual Giving Fundraiser to help grow our supporter base, develop community fundraising and increase regular giving.

The opportunity

This is a new role with considerable freedom to shape how BCHT develops community and individual giving. Working closely with Trustees, patrons, volunteers and existing supporters, you will initially focus on Yorkshire and northern England, where BCHT already has networks on which to build.

You will develop relationships with churches, schools, universities, Rotary clubs, community organisations, businesses and individual supporters; help people fundraise for BCHT; develop regular giving; and ensure that our supporters feel connected to the extraordinary work they make possible. You will also help us develop a more systematic approach to supporter communications, digital fundraising, stewardship and volunteer engagement.

This role could be for you if you have experience of community fundraising, individual giving, supporter engagement, marketing or relationship management; are an excellent communicator and natural relationship-builder; enjoy meeting people and are confident speaking to groups; can develop ideas and turn them into practical fundraising activity; can work independently; and want the opportunity to build something rather than simply inherit an established fundraising programme.

Experience of community or individual fundraising, regular giving, working with volunteers, CRM systems, or church, school or faith-community fundraising would be particularly valuable.

You will need to be based in Yorkshire and able and willing to travel regularly throughout the region.

BCHT is inspired by Christian values of compassion, dignity and service. Applicants should be sympathetic to the values and mission of the charity. The palliative care service we support is provided to people regardless of faith, ethnicity, background or ability to pay.

What we offer: flexible home-based working; 25 days' annual leave plus UK public/bank holidays, pro rata; and a workplace pension scheme with a 5% employer contribution, subject to scheme rules. You will have considerable scope to shape BCHT's community fundraising programme from the outset and direct access to Trustees and supporters.

To apply, please submit your CV and a covering letter of no more than two pages explaining why you are interested in the role and how your experience meets its requirements. Please download the Recruitment Pack for further information.
