Are you a visionary leader whose work and life embodies the value and “magic dust” of real human relationships?

About Us
Claremont is a community passionate about the arts and personal and community development. We have been a nationally progressive pioneer in our approach to services and we were the UK’s first Wellbeing Centre, long before the term was ubiquitous. We want to continue our history of innovation, alongside our culture of learning, our basis in genuine human relationships and the conviction that everybody matters. Underlying all of our services, and a key aspect of our culture, is a psychotherapeutically-informed approach which emphasises real listening, self awareness, and an awareness of how we are being in relation to other people.
About the Role

The ideal candidate will have experience and competence in all or as many as possible of these areas, as well as having a certain “Claremontiness” – aspirational and personal qualities which embody a genuine relational approach to life.
The role involves leading Claremont in achieving its charitable aims, articulating and executing its vision, and inspiring stakeholders. Responsibilities include managing financial, operational, legal, and safeguarding systems; fundraising and income generation; overseeing governance, compliance, and Board relations; maintaining financial systems and ensuring accurate accounts; managing the building and income-generating leases; representing Claremont externally; leading and developing the staff and volunteer team; and acting as Clinical Director for psychotherapy services. The postholder fosters partnerships, oversees IT and outcome measures, engages with the community, and resolves complaints with professionalism and kindness.
