Job description
Prospectus is delighted to be supporting Cook For Good as they look to appoint an Operations and Programmes Director. Cook For Good are a social business with a clear mission: to bring businesses and communities together through food, for the benefit of both. They’ve created a model for tackling food poverty and social isolation, which they’re putting into practice on a social housing estate in Kings Cross.
Entering their third year of operations, the organisation is growing rapidly and are looking for a pragmatic, solutions focused leader to help support and guide the organisation through this growth. You will work closely with the co-founders to review, refine and enhance the organisations work to ensure they deliver on their social mission and the impact they have set out to achieve, including development of their food pantry, community cooking and employment programmes. You will also oversee all internal operations to ensure that the operational capacity of the organisation matches programmatic growth.
The successful candidate will have significant experience of operational management, including systems, compliance and HR, as well as managing the delivery of community programmes, working with a wide range of stakeholders from community beneficiaries to delivery partners to corporate donors or clients. You will be experienced in managing teams, budgets and the delivery of reporting to funders and other stakeholders. Finally, you will be a committed and passionate leader, with the ability to engage and influence those around you with a solutions focused approach to ensure that Cook For Good continue to deliver their high impact work.
At Prospectus, we invest in your journey as a candidate and are committed to supporting you with your application. We welcome all candidates to apply, regardless of age, sex/gender, disability, race, religion, sexual orientation, marital status, or pregnancy/maternity.
