CEO

Surviving Economic Abuse
Home-based, with regular travel.
£80k + dependent on experience
Hackney

We work with victim-survivors who are Experts by Experience to inform our work and have an established partnership with Money Advice Plus who run the Financial Support Line for victim-survivors of economic abuse. Our close partnerships with the women’s and financial services sector enable us to support change on the issues that directly impact the lives of victim-survivors. 

THE ROLE

Founded in 2017 by Dr Nicola Sharp-Jeffs who led SEA from its inception and stepped down earlier this year, we are seeking to appoint an exceptional individual to lead and grow the charity’s income, profile and build on the significant platform she created. This is an exciting opportunity to shape our next phase of growth and lead on the development and implementation of our next survivor-centred strategy. 

We need someone who shares our commitment to driving positive change and with strong organisational and financial management skills to work with the Board and senior leadership team to ensure we continue to centre survivors in everything we do. You will be an excellent communicator with strong interpersonal skills and high emotional intelligence with the ability to build partnerships and work collaboratively with a range of stakeholders including the domestic abuse, financial services, government, statutory and charity sectors. 

You will be an established leader with a naturally inclusive leadership approach and role model SEA’s values and behaviours and – if not already – led by a strong feminist ethos.
