St Giles Trust is a national charity and a global leader in using lived experience to drive meaningful social change. For over 60 years, they have worked with people held back by poverty, exploitation, abuse, or the criminal justice system, supporting them to transform their lives and build a positive future. As a national organisation working across England and Wales with offices in London, Norwich, Cardiff, Leeds, Coventry and Wolverhampton, and with a turnover of around £17 million, they deliver life-changing services through three key pillars of work: Poverty: Tackling the root causes of poverty, providing both emergency relief and long-term support to help people move towards independence and employment. Violence & Exploitation: Supporting those affected by violence, abuse, and exploitation, and preventing future harm through credible, empathetic intervention. Justice System: Helping people in prison and in the community to break the cycle of disadvantage, rebuild their lives, and access positive opportunities. They have a proud 60-year history of helping people who have faced the toughest challenges in life; people who have been marginalised or held back by poverty, violence and exploitation, to build better futures for themselves and their families. Their approach is informed by the people they serve. The majority of their team have lived experience of the issues their clients face. They have been there, they understand, and they use that insight every day to offer credible, compassionate, and life-changing support. Independent research has shown that for every £1 invested in St Giles' work, society benefits by £10. That's impact that transforms lives, families, and whole communities. As they deliver their ambitious five-year strategy, they are determined to continue growing their reach, impact, and ability to change lives through empathy, trust and opportunity. In order to realise this ambition, they are seeking a new Chief Operating Officer. Their new Chief Operating Officer will provide strategic leadership and operational management for Finance, IT, Governance and Safeguarding, Central Services (including property & facilities, Health and Safety and Office Management), Data Protection/Information Security, procurement and contract management. They will play a key role in supporting the CEO, Board, and Leadership Team to deliver the charity's vision and strategic aims, with a primary emphasis on financial leadership. The St Giles Trust are committed to providing equal opportunities for everyone. They acknowledge that people from certain backgrounds are under-represented within the third sector and are committed to doing what they can to correct this.

St Giles Trust is a national charity and a global leader in using lived experience to drive meaningful social change. For over 60 years, they have worked with people held back by poverty, exploitation, abuse, or the criminal justice system, supporting them to transform their lives and build a positive future. As a national organisation working across England and Wales with offices in London, Norwich, Cardiff, Leeds, Coventry and Wolverhampton, and with a turnover of around £17 million, they deliver life-changing services through three key pillars of work: Poverty: Tackling the root causes of poverty, providing both emergency relief and long-term support to help people move towards independence and employment. Violence & Exploitation: Supporting those affected by violence, abuse, and exploitation, and preventing future harm through credible, empathetic intervention. Justice System: Helping people in prison and in the community to break the cycle of disadvantage, rebuild their lives, and access positive opportunities. They have a proud 60-year history of helping people who have faced the toughest challenges in life; people who have been marginalised or held back by poverty, violence and exploitation, to build better futures for themselves and their families. Their approach is informed by the people they serve. The majority of their team have lived experience of the issues their clients face. They have been there, they understand, and they use that insight every day to offer credible, compassionate, and life-changing support. Independent research has shown that for every £1 invested in St Giles' work, society benefits by £10. That's impact that transforms lives, families, and whole communities. As they deliver their ambitious five-year strategy, they are determined to continue growing their reach, impact, and ability to change lives through empathy, trust and opportunity. In order to realise this ambition, they are seeking a new Chief Operating Officer. Their new Chief Operating Officer will provide strategic leadership and operational management for Finance, IT, Governance and Safeguarding, Central Services (including property & facilities, Health and Safety and Office Management), Data Protection/Information Security, procurement and contract management. They will play a key role in supporting the CEO, Board, and Leadership Team to deliver the charity's vision and strategic aims, with a primary emphasis on financial leadership.
