About The Role
We’re looking for a Senior Delivery / Programme Operations Manager who thrives on delivering efficient and pragmatic processes, procedures and systems to support the impactful delivery of our growing suite of Financial Education and Wellbeing Workshops and
Programmes. You will help us get stuff done! And deliver important functions and projects yourself.
As we grow the charity, it is ever more crucial that we break down silos and duplication between our two main delivery teams (Children & Young People and Adults). You will lead on reviewing and consolidating the two processes into one for the support functions of the programme delivery teams, initially progressing priority tasks identified for 2026 as part of our recent strategy refresh, and building a pipeline of future continuous improvement projects for 2027 and beyond.
This will be a vital new role bringing order and cohesion to the vital delivery support functions. You will own and champion key programme delivery-related functions in the charity, ensuring that they are fit for purpose and are understood and used throughout the charity. Reporting to one of the Directors, you will play a key role in bridging and where appropriate joining the two teams, whilst respecting and promoting their technical specialisms and differences.
Key Responsibilities
Identify, review and consolidate the key shared support functions for the delivery teams so they remain ‘fit for purpose’ as the charity grows. This will include:
Manage the successful rollout and ongoing ownership of the new Beacon CRM system, ensuring that the processes and functions are fit for purpose for all parts of the charity. Own the overall workflows and processes. Communicate, train and engage with the wider charity to ensure that all parts of the charity can input into design and ongoing development and are successfully using the new system. Provide appropriate oversight and quality assurance, and process improvement.
Oversee the impact/evaluation function in the charity. Review and refine our impact strategy. Tender for a new evaluation partner. Review and agree the Theory of Change for the charity and for other parts or projects of the charity as appropriate. Agree and oversee the processes, forms and techniques used to develop our business as usual evaluation. Liaise with and oversee the relationship with the current and any future evaluation partner and the production of quarterly and annual reports. In collaboration with the Marketing & Communications Officer and the Senior Fundraising / Corporate Partnerships Manager agree appropriate ways of communicating and support the production of these.
Be the Designated Safeguarding Lead for the charity. Be responsible for the Safeguarding policy, procedures, training and reporting.
Review the process for the creation, and production and stock monitoring of printed and digital resources and handouts.
Review the two delivery models and processes as a whole and make recommendations for other areas that would benefit from being consolidated or done differently, whilst respecting the need for technical specialism and some need for differences in approach to reflect this and the different audiences. This review could include but is not limited to the quality assurance and consultant management process, content & brand mapping/ownership, the consultant invoice process.
