The Barrow Cadbury Trust is a dynamic, independent charitable foundation seeking a just and peaceful society which recognises the equal value of all people. Largely working in partnerships with others, we use all our resources – our money, our people and our name – to bring about structural change to increase social justice and equality.
Founded over 100 years ago, we work to create a more just and equal society, supporting partners in their work. This is an exciting time for the Trust: we have an ambitious strategic plan in place which is reviewed on an annual basis, drawing up priorities for each of our areas of work. We have a staff team that is highly capable and expert in their fields, and a committed and hard-working board.
Dame Sara Llewellin has done a great deal to establish Barrow Cadbury Trust as a thought leader in the philanthropy and civil sector, and we are now recruiting her successor. This is a rare opportunity for an inspirational leader, adept at strategic thinking and with a passion for the Barrow Cadbury Trust’s vision and mission to join us and make a lasting difference.
We are keen to speak to people with a profound empathy with the values and aims of the Trust. With experience of high level leadership, the next CEO will work closely with the Chair, Board Executive Team and other staff to ensure all the organisation’s resources – our people, our skills, our money/endowment, and our reputation – are put to effective use in the vigorous pursuit of our vision, mission and values. You will be an enthusiastic advocate of the sector and its infrastructure, able to utilise strategic communication as a cornerstone approach to effective campaigning and influencing.
This is a unique opportunity. We are keen to speak with those who bring an appreciation of the complexities of creating structural change, a successful track record of developing and implementing strategy and a history of advancing diversity, equity and inclusion.
We have a strong commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion and we encourage applications from people with personal experience of the social justice issues we’re working on.
We are supported by our recruiting partner, Green Park in this recruitment process. To read more about this role and how to apply, please visit our microsite here: https://micro.green-park.co.uk/barrowcadbury/
