Join to apply for the Chief Executive Officer, Bite Back role at Guardian Jobs

Bite Back is a youth-led movement challenging a food system that’s rigged against children’s health. By campaigning for systemic change, we ensure that every young person—regardless of background—can access healthy, affordable food and the opportunity to thrive.

Powered by our youth activists, we hold the food industry to account, shift public opinion and narratives, and push for bold policy change. We are now seeking a bold, values-led Chief Executive Officer to lead us into our next chapter of growth—scaling our impact while staying true to our creative, youth-powered roots.

This is not a typical CEO role. Bite Back is mission-first, unapologetically youth-led, and ready to challenge the status quo. The new CEO will drive a bold organisational strategy, build a strong and inclusive culture, champion intergenerational leadership, and ensure that young people remain at the forefront of our campaigns, messaging, and impact.

The successful candidate will bring:

• Proven strategic senior leadership experience within an organisation that has grown its income, reach and impact.
• Demonstrable experience influencing across a broad range of stakeholders to affect systemic change across education, government, business, and wider society.
• Proven track record of successful fundraising to deliver significant organisational growth.
• A deep commitment to inclusion, and empowering youth voice at every level.
  
  
  

If you believe in a future where young people lead change and are ready to build a healthier, fairer food system, we’d love to hear from you.

At Prospectus, we invest in your journey as a candidate, and we are committed to supporting you throughout the process. We welcome applications from all backgrounds and are committed to fostering an inclusive recruitment process.
