About the Organisation

Stroke Association. Rebuilding lives after stroke.

When stroke strikes, part of your brain shuts down. And so does a part of you. That’s because a stroke happens in the brain, the control centre for who we are and what we can do. It happens every five minutes in the UK and changes lives instantly. Recovery is tough, but with the right specialist support and a ton of courage and determination, the brain can adapt.

We believe everyone deserves to live the best life they can after stroke. And it’s a team effort to get there.

We provide specialist support, fund critical research and campaign to make sure people affected by stroke get the very best care and support to rebuild their lives.

We’re working to improve the diversity of our team.  Because we know that individuality leads to a richer experience for our people and better support for those affected by stroke.

We strongly encourage people from all backgrounds to apply. And we’re particularly looking to increase the number of applications from those with lived experience of stroke and those from under-represented communities. 

Every five minutes, stroke destroys lives. Help us rebuild them and join our team.

In 2019, we developed a bold new corporate strategy so that we can rebuild more lives after stroke and make a bigger difference to people’s lives. To help us deliver our strategy and make a real difference, we are looking to recruit talented people to a number of new roles. If you would like to support stroke survivors to rebuild their lives, we want to hear from you!

Join us as our new Chief Executive and make a meaningful difference to animal welfare across Cumbria, The Borders and the North East of England.​

Closing date: 9 a.m. Monday 23rd September

Who we are.

Oak Tree Animals’ Charity is based in Carlisle, Cumbria, and serves the North East, North West and the Borders, providing non-judgemental and compassionate care to animals and their owners.

The charity is dedicated to the improvement of animal welfare in the region, proactively supporting animals and encouraging people to prioritise animal welfare through our community programmes, advocacy and rehoming services.

We provide holistic support and care for animals and their owners to reach long-term solutions that avoid the need for rehoming but when that is unavoidable, Oak Tree provides a safe home for animals, rehabilitating and preparing them for the next stage in their lives.

The charity also prepares potential owners for life with a new companion and offers the help and support necessary for both animal and owner to live a long and happy life together.

Oak Tree does more besides this by working with communities, government services, local businesses and other charities to provide whatever help is necessary to allow animals and their owners to live happy and healthy lives.

About the role.

Oak Tree Animals’ Charity is looking for a new Chief Executive to provide strategic direction and act as an ambassador for the Charity, being a strong advocate for animal welfare both locally and nationally. The CEO will manage key relationships with policymakers, donors, and external stakeholders and work with the Board to steer the Senior Management Team to achieve the strategic plan.

The role will line manage the Head of Operations, Head of Income Generation and Head of Animal Welfare.

Oak Tree Animals’ Charity has expanded significantly over the last 9 years, and it is a much more complex organisation than it was previously.

The new CEO’s role will be to maintain and stabilise this creation and ensure that the charity is sustainable long term.

Who we are looking for.

We are seeking pragmatic candidates with strong leadership and people management skills to mentor and develop the passionate staff team and lead the strategic direction of the charity.

Experience of diversification of funding would be most welcome, so we welcome candidates with a fundraising background.

You will have a passion for animals as well as people, with a natural ability to build and develop relationships with a diverse range of stakeholders.

It is not essential to have an extensive background in the animal sector, but a strong sense of the industry and knowledge and understanding of animal welfare issues and legislation would give a definite advantage.

We welcome applications from both existing CEOs and those considering a CEO role for the first time if they can demonstrate the skills, values and experience required.

Please click 'Apply via website’ to be redirected to the Peridot Partners website, where you can find full details of the job description and register your interest to apply.

Applications for this role close at 9 a.m. Monday 23rd September.

On 1st June 2024 Richmond Fellowship merged with Humankind to form a single organisation that provides the joined-up mental health, housing and drug and alcohol support we’ve all known has been needed for decades. At the same time, Aquarius became a subsidiary of Humankind, with no impact to terms and conditions of employment.
