Freelance Consultant Programme Manager –the CEO’s closest collaborator

12-month contract |Key project |Remote-first | Regularorganisation meets in London | In-person retreats

Help Lead One of the Most Ambitious Human Development Programmes in the UK

A Million Realities exists to equip the leaders our world needs—those with the courage, skill and self-awareness to take on the root causes of societal breakdown. Our two-year flagship programme is built for changemakers tackling complex problems.

We’re now looking for a Freelance Consultant Programme Manager who is ready for real scope and influence. You’ll be the operational force behind the vision, scoping, automating and running a complex programme end-to-end, acting as the CEO’s closest collaborator as the organisation develops.

You’re a rare blend: emotionally intelligent, operationally precise, and deeply values-led. You’ve likely worked in high-performing, mission-driven environments—perhaps fellowships, startups, incubators or experimental education settings—where clarity, delivery, and flexibility were non-negotiable.

But your edge isn’t just technical—it’s personal. You:

• Hold your own with intensity and complexity, while staying open, grounded and calm
• Can speak the language of systems and the language of people
• Are alive to the subtle dynamics of power, money, status, and emotion—and take responsibility for your own role within them
• Are curious about inner work, human development, and the intersection of personal and systemic transformation
• Know how to hold boundaries and build trust
• Are not just okay with ownership—you’re hungry for it
• Love being a freelance consultant—working independently,managing your own time and integrating a role like this alongside other projects that energise you

?️What You’ll Own

Over the next 12 months you’ll be responsible for making our flagship two-year programme efficient, scalable and impactful.

Programme Delivery & Operations

• Lead the full programme lifecycle: from application to onboarding, retreats to alumni
• Build and maintain elegant systems and automations to support seamless delivery
• Design and own back-end infrastructure (Notion, Airtable, etc.) that scales with us
• Monitor performance, track impact, and report insights to internal stakeholders

Community & Comms

• Be the warm, clear point of contact for applicants, fellows and alumni
• Build self-serve resources to reduce comms overhead while strengthening connection
• Support messaging across newsletters, blogs and our community platform
• Work closely with the CEO to turn vision into delivery
• Help test new formats, events and experiments to grow our reach and deepen our impact
• Contribute to organisational strategy with insight, challenge and care

On Retreat

• Partner with our Head of Expeditions to ensure every detail of delivery is thought through and held before, during and after each retreat

?Why This Role?

This is a rare opportunity to step into a leadership-adjacent role in a small, bold,mission-first organisation.You’ll help shape a pioneering initiative,working with ambitious, self-aware people committed to real transformation—personally, relationally, and societally.

You’ll get:

• Real responsibility and influence—this role is central to the success of our work
• A culture that takes personal development, inner work and boundaries seriously
• Flexibility in how you work (we’re remote-first, but we do meet in-person)
• You’ll get to travel and experience extraordinary locations
• You’ll benefit from development opportunities that are part of our culture
• You’ll work closely with our Founder, Trustees and CEO
• The chance to work on something that matters, at a time when it matters deeply

We’re not just looking for skills. We’re looking for someone who gets us. You believe that:

• Real change requires both inner and outer work
• Accountability is an act of integrity, not punishment
• Community is built through clarity, care and deep attention
