St Mungo’s is at the forefront of efforts to tackle homelessness. At the heart of all of our services is our commitment to empowering individuals, to supporting people in their journey away from homelessness and to preventing homelessness in the future. With more than 1,500 staff and 1,000 volunteers, and support provided to more than 3,000 people on any given night, we are one of the largest homelessness charities in the UK and our services reach across London and the South and South West of England.
We believe that rough sleeping can be ended and our ambitious new five year strategy sets this as a target for us, and our work with partners, from now through to 2026.
As part of our emphasis on achieving our five year strategy, we are now looking for an Executive Director of IT and Transformation to drive significant and wide reaching change. This new role is central to our ambitions as an organisation; the post will shape our overarching transformation agenda, and lead on the IT modernisation strategy which has been identified as a key strategic enabler for our organisation’s ambitions over the next five years.
We are looking for a transformational leader and innovator who will be able to create and deliver a compelling vision and strategy underpinned by St Mungo’s strategy. The incoming Executive Director of IT and Transformation will be an established senior leader with a track record of delivering real and ambitious change through technology and organisational strategic planning. You will be a strong and authentic leader and will bring excellent influencing and communication skills, and the ability to build support, across large, complex organisations, for wide-ranging, programmes of change.
As part of a collaborative Executive team, you will contribute to providing visible, inspiring and engaging leadership, direction and decision-making within St Mungo’s as a whole as we look to deliver our five year strategic plan.
If you believe you have the ambition and ability, are passionate about our mission and want to work innovatively to achieve tangible outcomes for our clients, then we would love to hear from you.
At St Mungo’s, diversity is essential to the success of our organisation and we actively encourage applications from a broad and deep range of backgrounds and experiences. We have an active strategy to ensure that the racial diversity of our workforce is fully represented at our most senior levels.
