CHIEF EXECUTIVE Location: London, UK - but flexible. Requires UK wide travel. Salary: £60,000 fantastic opportunity to lead the next exciting stage in the development of the only membership association bringing together and representing leisure and cultural trusts across the uk. Community Leisure UK is a national members’ association representing leisure and culture charitable trusts and social enterprises across the UK. The association is a small, agile and valuesdriven organisation. The Chief Executive role is an integral part of this team and wider trust collective. Members range from small trusts operating one or two facilities, to very large trusts operating in multiple geographical locations. The trusts play a major and distinctive role in the national delivery of vital local services and Community Leisure UK works closely with our members and many national bodies to assist this role and support best practice. Our member trusts operate a very wide range of leisure and cultural services in communities across the UK - from the Shetland Isles to Cornwall, and from the Western Highlands to Kent. Together our members provide around 45% of public leisure services in England and Wales and 85% in Scotland. The facilities and services they deliver support many kinds of physical and cultural activity, from sports and community cultural services to activities as diverse as children's centres and parks. We are looking for a senior leader of the highest calibre to become the next Chief Executive of Community Leisure UK. The successful applicant will provide the necessary leadership to take the organisation forward, maintaining it as the recognised 'voice' of our members and ensuring it is the first contact point for policymakers.
