Mothers’ Union is a global Christian movement working to transform lives, strengthen families and advocate for change.
Active for nearly 150 years and now with 4 million members in 84 countries, our development programmes have extraordinary reach and an approach that is in line with best practice – our members serve in their local communities, have strong established relationships, and are there for the long term. They see what is needed, where it is needed and work as volunteers to help others. This local knowledge, combined with their Christian faith perspective enables transformation in the communities they serve.
Our programmes, which take an Asset Based Community Transformation approach, are focused around the three pillars identified by our members of stopping violence (especially gender-based violence), poverty and injustice.
We now seek a Director of Global Programmes to build on the excellent work to date to ensure there is consistency in approach, and that the local teams have the necessary capability and capacity in place to deliver to time, quality and budget. Our desire is to do this without losing the relational and member-led approach we have always taken, and to extend the work into more countries.
This will require a best-in-class development leader with a mature Christian faith, the ability to shape culture and convert vision into operational strategies that enable growth. You will be a brilliant team builder and collaborator who balances trust and accountability and you will likely have experience of working in a networked organization, with and through volunteers.

Trees for Cities is the only national charity dedicated to improve lives by planting, protecting and promoting urban trees. We do this by working closely with communities, landowners, partners and funders to deliver transformational change in towns and cities across the UK and overseas. We plant trees in schools, streets, estates, parks and open spaces to create nature-rich urban woodland, hedgerows, orchards, avenues and playgrounds.
The charity is experiencing an exciting period of growth and development, with expansion in both their programme activities and income. As we adapt to this growth, we are also enhancing our internal operations by strengthening systems and improving efficiencies. We are in the process of shaping our latest organisational wide strategy, set to launch in April 2025, which will focus on broadening our reach and impact across the UK.
In addition to leading a small team and overseeing day-to-day financial management, this role will contribute to key initiatives such as enhancing our fund accounting and management reporting, refining project cost modelling, and reviewing finance policies and processes. As a business partner to budget holders, the role will provide leaders with the knowledge, insights, and tools to strengthen budget management and forecasting, building on the supportive and engaged relationship the finance team already fosters across the organisation. You will work closely with the Director of Finance and Operations on finance strategy and change management projects.
This role presents an excellent opportunity for someone eager to make a lasting impact within the finance function and wider organisation.
