Job Description

This is a high-profile and exciting role which is responsible for leading the delivery of a change management programme to develop a regional governance and volunteer support structure.  The post-holder will devise and implement clear strategies for change within the region, develop a clear implementation plan to support the new governance structure and be responsible for engaging with existing Sands volunteers and recruiting new ones, particularly those from under-represented groups.

You will need to have experience of line management, and have good time-management and organisational skills.
