Fleetwood Town Community Trust Looking for Chief Executive Officer at Thornton-Cleveleys, Lancashire (On-site) Full Time

We are looking to recruit a high calibre Community Trust CEO who can show the commitment and inspiration required to lead our charity, motivate a diverse team, build influential relationships, and further develop our reputation locally and nationally.

FTCT is a vibrant and active community project that aims to provide socially inclusive community, health and education engagement programs which aim to make a difference to the lives of people within our community.

Having successfully attained charitable status, the challenge for the Trust is now to reach even more people and increase the role we play in the local community. The Trust offers many diverse activities that aim to provide the people in Wyre and Fylde with the opportunities to participate and enjoy themselves in a fun, friendly environment.

We have an exciting opportunity for a Chief Executive Officer to join our team at FTCT. This role involves providing inspirational senior leadership of the FTCT, developing, and delivering an ambitious strategic plan that increases both the Trust’s and Football Club’s brand, impact, and reputation.

Strategic responsibility for the financial and business growth of FTCT, ensuring sustainability and diversity of income streams, which can be reinvested in community-based activity for the benefit of the Fylde coast and its communities.

With a strong, dedicated Board, a great team in place and a clear mission, we firmly believe the Trust is set for an exciting decade. However, to achieve our ambitious plans, we are looking to appoint an inspirational and strategic senior leader as our FTCT CEO, taking over from the current CEO when he leaves to pursue other opportunities.

Working closely with the Board and the Trust’s three Senior Managers in particular, the FTCT CEO will have executive responsibility for governance, growth and financial sustainability of the charity.

The FTCT CEO will be an inspirational leader both internally and externally, working to secure and cultivate diverse income streams and high-impact partnerships, whilst ensuring we continue to operate with excellent systems and processes which support our talented staff to do what they do best.

As an ambassador for both the Community Trust and Football Club, the FTCT CEO will foster a positive culture, ensuring staff at all levels across the organisation are inspired and encouraged to succeed and develop in-role.

The Trustees are looking for a high calibre CEO that can deliver and effectively communicate our vision, mission, and values clearly. We want someone who can make FTCT one of the leading and most respected Community Trusts in the country.
