About This Role
Do you want to help shape how a national charity plans, learns and improves?
This role is the engine of our organisational planning cycle. You'll coordinate our annual operational plan and quarterly OKRs, working with senior leaders and Trustees to translate strategic priorities into clear, measurable commitments — then track and report on delivery throughout the year. You'll own the tools that make this possible, and lead the governance and communications that keep the organisation on course.
You'll also be central to our most significant organisational moments: coordinating the Board Away Day and All Staff Day, preparing board reporting, and facilitating workshops that help colleagues engage with our direction of travel.
This isn't a back-office role. You'll be a trusted partner to senior leaders, a confident facilitator at all levels, and someone who genuinely cares about continuous improvement — not just tracking progress, but helping the organisation learn from it.
