Job Description

CEO - School Home Support




Are you a senior charity leader who's driven to make a real difference in the lives of children and families across the UK?


As the CEO of School-Home Support (SHS), you'll lead a mission-driven organisation that has been dedicated to transforming young people's lives for over 40 years, ensuring they return to school and thrive.


About the Organisation




School-Home Support (SHS) tackles the fundamental issues leading to poor school attendance and disengagement. These challenges range from poverty and domestic abuse to housing insecurity and parental mental health issues, all of which have been exacerbated by the pandemic and the most severe cost of living crisis in decades. SHS practitioners work directly with children, families, and schools to break the cycles of disadvantage.


Mission

: Every child in school, ready to learn - whatever it takes.


Why Apply?




This is a rare opportunity to lead a respected education charity at a time when its work has never been more vital.

As CEO, you'll be the strategic force behind SHS's growth, innovation, and impact. You'll shape the future of a mission-driven organisation and make a lasting difference in the lives of children and families.


What You'll Be Doing:




Driving strategic innovation and sustainable growth

Leading a talented team and fostering a culture of collaboration and high performance

Overseeing fundraising, revenue generation, and stakeholder engagement

Representing SHS in public forums and advocating for its mission

Ensuring financial sustainability and operational excellence

Collaborating with the Board of Trustees to deliver on SHS's strategic objectives


About You




You're an experienced and inspiring leader from the charity, education, or public sector and bring:

Proven senior charity leadership experience is essential. While direct experience in education, family support, or youth services would be advantageous, it is not essential.

Strategic thinking with innovation and change management skills with a track record enabling growth and development

Success in fundraising, including traditional fundraising, developing sustainable earned income streams and diversifying funding sources

Excellent communication and advocacy abilities

A deep commitment to equity, inclusion, and SHS's mission

You'll have a commercial mindset, be proactive, resilient and ready to lead with purpose.
