Deputy Director (Operations) - Furniture Now! - posted 17/6/10

http://www.furniturenow.org.uk/vacancies.html For application Pack.

Post Title: Deputy Director (Operations) - 1 Year contract
Grade: NJC Scale PO 33 (currently £27,849)
Reporting to: Director, Attendance at Board Meetings to report to trustees
Responsible for: Management, Policy, Health & Safety, Publicity and Marketing

Furniture Now! is at a key point in its development; there has been successful expansion of the organisation, increased earned income and there is a capable and committed staff team in place.  The funding envronment is changing, and opportunities for further expansion are opening up. In order to take the next steps in a considered and planned way, the Trustees have seconded the Director to undertake a full strategic review of the organisation, and to create a Strategic Plan for the next 5 years. During this time (3 months), Trustees and the Director have agreed that it would be prudent to create a temporary deputy post to ensure that the excellent progress to date is not put at risk.

The Strategic Plan will review senior operational staff responsibilities, and once approved by the board the Director's role will evolve as he is tasked with the necessary development work in order to put the plan into operation. The role of the Deputy Director will also develop in accordance with the plan's HR objectives and ultimately could become a permanent position if fundraising and expansion are possible.

For more information, please e-mail director@furniturenow.org.uk or telephone for a confidential discussion.
