Older Citizens Advocacy York (OCAY) is a thriving charity dedicated to supporting older people (aged 50+) in York. Last year they helped 568 older people have their voices heard. You'll oversee all aspects of OCAY's services, manage resources effectively, and ensure financial sustainability through diversified funding streams.

You'll be an outward facing leader, looking for collaboration and partnership opportunities with other organisations supporting older people across the city of York.

You'll get involved in the coordination of outreach activities to enhance OCAY's profile and service awareness alongside managing governance requirements, including communication with regulatory bodies, cultivating strong relationships with funders and partner organisations.

We are looking for an experienced leader/manager who understands and has empathy towards older and vulnerable people.

This role offers an exciting mix of strategy and getting stuck into the day-to-day operational needs of a small organisation, so the ability to balance strategic vision with operational implementation is a must.

You'll be brilliant at managing and leading your team while demonstrating a commitment to diversity, equality, and inclusion.

We are looking for someone who has a proven track record of achieving results and solving problems innovatively, while being confident in budgeting and financial management.

We would love our Charity Director to have experience of income generation, in particular grant applications, as well as experience working with volunteer boards or management committees.

If you have a passion for making a difference in the lives of older people and would love to take on an exciting leadership opportunity, we would love to hear from you.
