Together, every child and young person can flourish. Contract: Full-time, 1-year fixed-term contract Early August start date Who we are At AllChild, we believe every child and young person deserves the right support, in the right way, at the right time, rooted in the relationships and communities they know and trust. We work with schools, families, councils and community organisations to create what we call SEA change: improving children's Social, Emotional and Academic wellbeing so they can thrive at school, in life, and in the future they choose. Since 2016, we've grown from a small start-up in West London to a thriving team now reaching over 1,700 children across London and Greater Manchester. We bring people together across sectors to co-design support that makes sense locally, building trusted partnerships that last. We are now ready to deepen our presence and impact by bringing AllChild to Hastings and Bexhill - places full of community pride and creativity, but where too many children still face barriers to opportunity and wellbeing.

As interim Regional Director, you'll support our next chapter of growth on a 12-month FTC basis, maternity cover, with an early August start. Working hand-in-hand with local schools, councils and voluntary sector partners, you'll develop and deliver our first AllChild programme in East Sussex, embedding a new way of investing in children's futures. You'll develop and lead a team of Link Workers who act as trusted adults for children, ensuring that support is early, joined-up and built around the child. You'll listen deeply to families, teachers and community leaders to shape a programme that reflects local strengths and needs. This is both a strategic and hands-on leadership role. You'll represent AllChild locally, build strong relationships across the community, and champion the voices of children and young people. You'll lead delivery, safeguarding and partnership development, while contributing to AllChild's national growth and learning. What we seek We are seeking someone who shares our belief that real change for children happens when communities come together. You'll bring energy, empathy and determination, alongside experience of leading programmes for children and young people in education, social care or the voluntary sector You'll be an inspiring and collaborative leader, skilled at building and developing teams, confident in navigating complex local systems and working with senior leaders in schools, local authorities and VCSEs. An ability to act both strategically and practically is needed, and you will enjoy being equally comfortable shaping vision and driving delivery. You will be experienced in safeguarding and risk management, as well as an entrepreneurial and creative flair, with the resilience to work at pace and in new contexts. Above all, you'll be motivated by the belief that every child deserves to flourish, bringing ambition, deep connection and trust to make that happen.
