Head of Programmes

The global recession is hitting the poorest workers in the world the hardest, demanding radical new approaches to ethical trade.

As a key member of ETI's senior management team you will play a critical role in driving the implementation of our new strategy, overseeing a series of collaborative work programmes that aim to achieve widespread, lasting change for workers.

You are a proven people manager and with more than five years' experience of project management and planning. Excellent communication and administration skills are essential.

With sound judgement and a sharp strategic mind, you are a confident and diplomatic leader, adept at managing diverse groups of stakeholders ranging from retail giants like Tesco and M&S, and international development charities and trade unions like Oxfam and the TUC.

A solid knowledge of ethical trade and related international development issues and a passion for ETI's aims and objectives are a must.

Salary of £46,408.92 plus benefits and 25 days annual holiday and 6% pension contribution.
