What does it take to lead the national voice for special schools at a time of real change? About the organisation This organisation is the membership association for special schools in England and Wales. We bring together independent special schools, non-maintained special schools, special academies, maintained special schools and multi-academy trusts with specialist provision. We exist to inform, support and represent our members, helping specialist schools improve outcomes for children and young people with SEND and secure the place of specialist provision within the wider education system. The organisation is known for being accessible, responsive and personal, combining national influence with practical support that members value as timely, human and trustworthy. This is a pivotal moment for the organisation. In February this year, the Department for Education published a major white paper on SEND reform which will require the organisation to both influence national policy on behalf of our members and children and young people, as well as support them to navigate the changes. Our new CEO will need to review our strategy while building on our strong platform and momentum to further deepen our influence and strengthen our internal capacity. As our next Chief Executive, you will: Strategy & Impact: Lead the organisation through a period of policy and structural change, ensuring the organisation remains clear on purpose, responsive to members and influential in the SEND landscape. Governance & Finance: Work closely with the Board of Trustees to provide strong governance, prudent financial stewardship, robust risk management and clear strategic oversight. Operational Leadership: Provide confident leadership to a small, remote team, strengthening collaboration, accountability, resilience and a positive, high-trust culture. Income Generation: Oversee budgeting, planning and reporting while developing thoughtful opportunities to diversify income through membership, partnerships, events and related activity. Community & Partnerships: Build and sustain trusted relationships with government, parliament, regulators, sector bodies and member schools, ensuring the organisation remains relevant and well connected. Member Services: Protect and enhance the practical offer to members, from briefings and special interest groups to conferences, webinars, training and peer-to-peer learning. Brand & Profile: Act as a credible public ambassador for the organisation, helping to modernise communications and broaden the organisation's voice beyond a founder-shaped model. Future Growth: Shape a distributed leadership profile and support a more varied, accessible and engaging approach to membership, advocacy and communications. A seasoned senior leader with experience in a charity, membership body, education or public sector setting, and a clear track record of leading through change. A strong strategic thinker, able to absorb complex information quickly and translate it into clear, practical direction. A confident communicator with the gravitas to represent the organisation with members, staff, trustees, MPs, peers, media and national partners. A politically astute relationship-builder, comfortable navigating a complex and fast-moving external environment. Experienced in governance, with a sound understanding of working with boards or trustees and supporting effective decision-making. Numerate and commercially minded, with experience of budgets, financial planning, income generation or partnership development. Credible, approachable and resilient, with the emotional intelligence to lead well in a high-profile, remote and sometimes uncertain context. Direct SEND experience would be a significant advantage, alongside understanding of specialist education or similarly complex stakeholder environments. Why this organisation? This is a chance to lead a respected, member-led organisation with a strong national reputation and a clear public purpose. You will help shape the future of specialist education at a time when SEND reform is high on the agenda.

Species Recovery Manager Home-based with regular travel to locations across the UK up to £39,000 per annum Fixed Term contract for 1 year, until 31 March 2027, with the possibility of extension (subject to funding) - 35 hours per week This role is predominantly home-based with regular travel to locations across the UK. Office facilities are available at our Newark office (Tuesdays to Thursdays) for those within easy travelling distance. Closing date for applications: 19th May 2026 First interview: 1st June 2026 (Online) Second interview: 12th June 2026 (Online) About Us We are a grassroots movement of people from a wide range of backgrounds and all walks of life, who believe that we need nature and nature needs us. We have more than 945,000 members, over 33,000 volunteers, 4,100 staff and 600 trustees. There are 46 individual trusts, each of which is a place-based independent charity with its own legal identity, formed by groups of people getting together and working with others to make a positive difference to wildlife and future generations, starting where they live and work. The next few years will be critical in determining what kind of world we all live in. We need to urgently reverse the loss of wildlife and put nature into recovery at scale if we are to prevent climate and ecological disaster. We recognise that this will require big, bold changes in the way we work, not least in how we mobilise others and support them to organise within their own communities. About You Do you think that something is missing in British wildlife? Do you envision a future for the UK s landscapes where ecosystems are resilient to the effects of climate change through functioning natural processes driven by keystone species? A future where local people are in awe of the species returning to the wild places around them. Do you have the knowledge and passion to help drive this change? This may be the role for you. For decades, we have worked tirelessly to conserve and restore precious habitats across the UK and whilst there are many examples of success, we have not managed to reverse the decline in wildlife. What is needed is far greater scale and restoration of processes that enable habitats to be managed more effectively with less human intervention. This requires the return of missing species to drive those ecological processes. This includes extensive grazing with large herbivores like bison and elk, plus cattle and ponies (as proxies for extinct aurochs and tarpan), reinstatement of predator prey relationships with wildcat, lynx and white tailed eagles plus a host of translocations at local scales to help occupy empty habitat niches and increase ecosystem complexity. This post will work across teams to support species reintroduction efforts, share best practice, develop new programmes and work towards species recovery being built into day to day conservation practices. You are an inspiring and engaging nature recovery professional who is comfortable testing novel approaches to improve species recovery efforts, learning as you go and sharing lessons learnt with others to constantly improve the understanding of teams and across organisations. Your outgoing and collaborative working style makes you adept at building working relationships that lead to positive action. You will have a good understanding of the complexities of species reintroduction efforts in the UK, understand the reasons for and against and be able to build support from a place of deep understanding and respect for others views. You will be used to managing complex projects in an adaptive way to achieve results. We value passion, respect, trust, integrity, pragmatic activism and strength in diversity. We are passionate in promoting our aims, and we pride ourselves on being inclusive.
