As our next Chief Executive, you will: Strategic Leadership & Direction - Set and deliver a strategy that balances growth, financial sustainability and strong employment outcomes for candidates.

Partnerships & External Profile - Act as ambassador, building relationships with employers, partners and supporters to expand employment opportunities. Governance & Board Partnership - Work closely with trustees and the founder to strengthen governance and ensure long-term sustainability. Who you are Seasoned senior leader with experience of running organisations of similar scale and complexity, including multi-site operations.

Desirable: direct hospitality experience, experience scaling social enterprises or knowledge of FE regulation/Ofsted would be advantageous. Why? A proven, distinctive model that delivers real, long-term employment outcomes for young people with learning disabilities. A rare leadership role that combines mission-driven practice with commercial stewardship across cafés, a roastery and a training pub. Hybrid working with regular on-site engagement at Pavilion Buildings and social enterprise sites, offering visible day-to-day impact.
