About FareShare Midlands
FareShare Midlands is the region’s largest food redistribution charity. We take good-to-eat surplus food from the food industry and get it to our Members - frontline charities and community groups all over the Midlands. We turn an environmental problem into a social solution.
Last year we redistributed almost 5,794 tonnes of food from our warehouses in Birmingham, Leicester and Nottingham. It is sorted and stored by our dedicated teams of staff and volunteers, and then redistributed to around 800 Members including food pantries and cafes, homeless shelters and drop-in centers. These local organisations turn the food into food parcels, affordable shopping and delicious meals for people of all ages. As well as food, our Members provide vital support to families and the elderly, many of whom are facing challenging circumstances and living in poverty.
Last year our food reached more than 83,000 vulnerable people every week, providing 13 million meals. At the same time, we are growing our Employability Programmes to help people gain work experience, skills and jobs.

- Identify any barriers or opportunities and feedback any developments or challenges e.g. delays, maintenance concerns, instruction errors, etc.
- Ensure deliveries follow the assigned order, the routes are planned appropriately in the given timescale and all delivery windows are met safely.
- Highlight and respond quickly to any anticipated delays or difficulties, using problem solving skills to mitigate any unforeseen circumstances e.g. taking breaks while queueing or changing the order of collections subject to permission from the Supply Chain Team.
- Ensure the quality of the product delivered is accurate against notes, making detailed visual inspections and flagging any concerns or discrepancies before the vehicle is loaded.
- Strengthen existing relationships by providing a reliable and friendly service.
- Adhere to all health and safety and operational requirements at all times.
- Ensure the vehicle is properly maintained, serviced and cleaned to a high standard.

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.
Reprieve’s main office is in Whitechapel, London, UK. Reprieve also supports full-time Fellows, who work as lawyers, investigators and campaigners in the countries in which we work. We work closely with a number of partner organisations in jurisdictions all over the world, who provide access to clients, expertise, knowledge and guidance on specific issues or regions. We work in cooperation with relevant government officials, individual lawyers and human rights defenders, as well as individual, corporate and foundation funders to further the cause of our shared goals.
About the Role
The Lead Lawyer - Africa Death Penalty Team is responsible for coordinating Reprieve’s litigation and advocacy in Sub-Saharan Africa. At the moment, the team works on death penalty casework and abolition advocacy in Malawi, Tanzania, and Kenya. Our casework includes work on appeals to the Malawi Supreme Court of Appeal in the context of historic denials of a right to appeal and related contextual challenges; large-scale projects, such as the Kenya resentencing project, wherein we support stakeholders to ensure 5,000+ people are able to access a chance at reducing their sentence from death via a new sentence hearing, as well as supporting on individual strategic resentencing cases; and long-term regional projects, such as our strategic litigation before the African Court on Human and Peoples’ Rights, which challenges the mandatory death penalty, torture, and other associated violations of the African Charter. This is an opportunity to join a team that has developed ground breaking work with great success in getting people off death row, making significant contribution to legal reforms and towards abolition.
Contract, Location and Salary
This is a full-time, permanent role based in Reprieve’s London office. Reprieve operates a hybrid working model and we require staff to work 2 days per week from the London office and the rest of the week from home.
Your presence is important during core office hours, whether remotely or in the office. You will also be available outside of office hours in the event of an emergency, for example case developments that require urgent action. This is a role that may require travel, and work outside of core office hours from time to time.
The annual salary is £50,571 full-time per annum, less any required deductions for income tax and national insurance.
Reprieve is proud to have an open and transparent pay structure, governed by a 2:1 pay ratio between the highest-paid member of staff and the lowest-paid member of staff. We are a flexible employer and offer a range of nonfinancial benefits to employees. We welcome applications from a range of backgrounds.
Applicants must have the right to work in the UK currently and for the duration of the project, which will be checked prior to interview. Reprieve is an equal opportunity employer and we particularly welcome applicants from Black and minority ethnic communities, members of the LGBTQI community, and those with disabilities. Reprieve is committed to fighting racism and advancing racial justice, both in our work and within Reprieve.

Background
Lumos is an international children’s charity founded in 2005 by the author J.K. Rowling to end the harmful practice of institutionalisation of children. Lumos’s mission is to fight for every child’s right to a family by transforming care systems around the world. Our vision is for all children to grow up in safe and loving families. Our three-pronged approach is to prevent family separation, to protect children and to promote care reform.
Purpose of role
The incoming Chief Executive Officer will be coming into the organisation at a time of change and will lead on delivering the refreshed 2024 - 2026 Strategy and build on Lumos’ unique comparative advantage and successful work in eastern Europe. The Strategy explicitly emphasises the organisation’s Child Rights orientation and reframes priorities in line with the changing global context for children and the significantly reduced size and resources of the organisation.
The new strategy explicitly focuses on addressing the key drivers of the separation of children in context specific ways in Colombia, Kenya, Ukraine and Moldova, and seeks to leverage this work to influence regional care reform in Africa, Europe, Latin America and globally. Taken together, these efforts will contribute to the wider, joint efforts to accelerate Global Care Reform to end the institutionalisation of children and reintegrate children into family-based and alternative care.
The Chief Executive Officer will have the support of a passionate team of staff, an experienced Executive Leadership Team and fully supportive, engaged, and inspired Board of Trustees in the US and the UK.
Primary responsibilities
The new Chief Executive Officer will assume the following responsibilities:
Leadership
- Mobilise the organisation to achieve our mission with a focus on implementing the new 2024-2026 Strategy and embedding the strategic objectives.
- Nurture a thriving organisation and put in place the people, culture, management, and operational systems and appropriate governance to effectively deliver results for children.
- Build on the fundraising strategy and income generation, ensuring sustainable and diverse sources of income and resilience in the face of the effects of an ever-changing global context.
- Lead, empower and develop the Executive Leadership team to deliver our Strategy and model our values.
- Build Lumos’ profile and credibility as a thought leader with global technical expertise in the field of child rights and care reform.
Finance and fundraising
- Ensure the optimal level of resources, financial and human, are deployed to support the attainment of the organisation’s goals and strategic objectives.
- Give active and significant support to Lumos fundraisers and take a leading part in the cultivation of prospective and current donors. Support the Director to diversify the fundraising base and ensure financial sustainability.
- Engage with institutional funders, Trusts and Foundations, corporates and high-net-worth-individuals, attracting new donors and continuing to grow the Lumos’ partnership base and international networks.
- Be accountable to the Board for strategic finance and operational financial management, consolidating financial stability, efficiency, and impact.
Governance
- With the support of the Board of Trustees, work with the Director of Corporate Services to oversee the implementation of the governance function and recommendations as required.
- Ensure the Board is enabled fully to carry out their role, that governance meets the highest possible standards, and that Lumos is fully compliant in all areas.
- Ensure robust project planning and reporting are championed and embedded through the organisation in line with the organisation’s strategic objectives.
- Ensure the application of safeguarding best practice within Lumos and appropriately with the organisation’s partners.
Programmes
- Support Lumos Country Directors in the implementation of their national care reform strategies and collaborative partnerships with governments, and international and local civil society organisations.
- Support the Director of Programmes in sharing the organisation’s learning so that Governments and key stakeholders have the appropriate tools, resources and understanding to create meaningful change.
- Support the Director of Programmes to deliver a portfolio of excellent programmes for children, ensuring the safe and successful transition of current country programmes towards the new strategy and systematise the documentation and dissemination of transferable learning.
- Support the Director of Programmes to deliver safe and quality services in line with annual plans and donor requirements.
Programmes: evidence and advocacy
- Engage and influence multiple stakeholders nationally and internationally (within central, national, and local governments, with the commercial sector, the voluntary sector and in the media), enhancing the visibility of Lumos and its ability to inspire and drive social change for care reform.
- Guide the formulation of the organisation’s position with a view to influencing policy that achieves change in line with Lumos’ priorities.
- Represent the work of Lumos at the highest levels with partners, across the political spectrum and globally, and act as a champion and advocate for the organisation externally.
- Champion implementation research to deepen understanding of the drivers of institutionalisation and identify opportunities for prevention of separation of children from families and family strengthening.
- Oversee the measurement and evaluation of our work to achieve the appropriate reporting of demonstrable impact.
Programmes: child and young people
- Further develop and implement the meaningful participation of children, young people and other groups with lived experience.
- Develop at country and global level advisory mechanisms, in partnership with other organisations where appropriate, to provide platforms for self-advocates and persons and organisations with lived experience.
