We support young women aged 16–25 who have experienced childhood sexual abuse, sexual violence and homelessness, or are at risk of homelessness. Our work is feminist, person-centred and rooted in relationships, community and the belief that young women should have a real say in the services that affect their lives.

You’ll be confident identifying what needs to change, developing better ways of working and bringing people with you. From governance, risk and compliance to people management, communications and organisational performance, you’ll help create the foundations that allow our services to thrive.

We’re looking for someone who brings strong operational leadership, sound judgement and a genuine commitment to our values. You’ll have: · Significant experience in operational management, ideally within a charity, public sector or other values-led organisation. · Experience developing and improving organisational systems and processes. · Experience leading and supporting staff. · A strong understanding of governance, risk and compliance. · Experience working with organisational data, performance information and reporting. · Experience managing projects and implementing change. · Knowledge of GDPR, information governance and health and safety. · Excellent organisational, communication and problem-solving skills. · The ability to think strategically while remaining grounded in the realities of frontline service delivery. · A collaborative approach and the ability to build positive relationships across an organisation. Experience in the violence against women and girls sector, homelessness, social care or charity governance would be an advantage. Experience of communications, digital systems or working within a growing organisation would also be welcome. Just as importantly, you’ll share our commitment to feminist, person-centred and trauma-informed practice. You’ll understand that how we work matters just as much as what we deliver. SAY Women is an organisation with purpose, ambition and a strong sense of community. We’re growing our reach, developing our services and working to challenge the inequalities that shape young women’s experiences of violence, abuse and homelessness. We want to be an organisation where staff feel supported, young women have influence and our values are reflected in the decisions we make every day. This is an opportunity to play a significant role in that journey: helping shape how we work, strengthening our foundations and supporting our next stage of development. We take the work seriously, but we also believe in kindness, relationships, laughter and finding joy along the way. SAY Women strives to be an equal opportunity employer and we welcome applications from individuals who are disadvantaged and under-represented in the labour market.
