For more than three decades, Kairos Community Trust (Kairos) has stood alongside people affected by addiction and homelessness, offering the structured services, relationships and opportunities that make recovery possible. As Chief Executive, you will lead an organisation with strong roots, committed people and a clear understanding that nobody should be defined by their past. The opportunity You will be joining Kairos at an important point in its journey. The organisation has a proud history, a distinctive community ethos and services that make a tangible difference. The opportunity now is to protect what makes Kairos special while bringing the confidence, vision and drive needed for its next chapter. This role offers real breadth. You will have the space to shape strategy, strengthen financial sustainability, develop partnerships and income, support an experienced team and ensure people with lived experience have genuine voice, choice and influence. You will also work with an engaged Board that wants the next Chief Executive to bring openness to innovation, honest challenge and inclusive leadership. For the right person, this is the chance to combine strategic leadership with meaningful human impact. You will see the difference the organisation makes and have the opportunity to extend that impact to more people. About Kairos Kairos began with the Kilburn Night Shelter, established in 1988 to support people experiencing homelessness. Its early development brought together people from different Christian traditions. As the work developed, a stronger focus on the need for recovery, rehabilitation and supported housing emerged. Founded in 1991, it became Kairos Community Trust in 1994. Today, Kairos is an independent and inclusive charity. People of all faiths and none are welcomed. What unites the organisation is a shared commitment to dignity, recovery, mutual care and the belief that change is possible. This focus, alongside its organic historic development, is the foundation of its ethos. The Board and staff team include people with a range of religious beliefs and non-religious worldviews, alongside varied cultural backgrounds and lived experiences. This breadth of perspective strengthens Kairos and supports informed, compassionate decision making. The role As Chief Executive, you will be accountable to the Board for the leadership, performance and long-term sustainability of Kairos.

The confidence to build relationships, influence others and create opportunities. A collaborative approach to governance and a constructive relationship with a Board.
