Why Emmaus

Emmaus Suffolk is not just a charity — we are also a social enterprise with a powerful mission. We are dedicated to supporting individuals facing homelessness, who run the risk of homelessness or suffer from social isolation. Our mission transcends traditional support; we offer a community where people can not only find shelter but also purpose and opportunity through meaningful work. Emmaus Suffolk is headquartered in Ipswich with operations in Felixstowe and Woodbridge. Although an independently run organisation, it is also a federation member of Emmaus UK which in turn is part of the global Emmaus movement.

The package for this full time and permanent role comprises:

• Salary: Competitive salary of £55,000 - £60,000 per annum (depending on experience)
• Holiday: 25 days holiday, plus Bank Holidays

About The Role

As Chief Executive Officer, you will take over from the highly successful founder, who has, over the last 10 years, built Emmaus Suffolk from scratch to be a much respected organisation. You will have imagination and vision to develop the charity's strategy delivering support across the county. You will be responsible for managing the team that delivers services to those most in need as well as managing the social enterprises which in part fund the organisation and in part give those who need it, the means to get back on their feet. Although in a sound financial position, the successful candidate will consolidate existing income generation, identify new sources of funding and generate new revenue streams.

Main Duties And Responsibilities

• Lead the development and delivery of the charity's strategic and operational plans, aligning mission, companion support and social enterprise performance.
• Provide inclusive and empowering leadership to staff and volunteers, fostering a positive workplace culture and strong on-site presence.
• Oversee governance, safeguarding, financial sustainability, legal compliance and effective risk management.
• Drive diverse fundraising strategies, including grants, individual giving and enterprise income, to support long-term organisational sustainability.
• Act as the public face of the charity, building influential relationships with funders, media, local authorities and the wider sector.
