We have a huge job to do. We want all people affected by cardiomyopathy to live a full life. To do this we need to grow and develop, and from time to time this means adding to our small staff team. We will post any live opportunities on this page.
Whatever the role, we want people who:
- are passionate about changing the lives of people affected by cardiomyopathy;
- really understand the condition and the impact it has;
- know more than we do already and are happy to get stuck in.
Chief Executive Officer
Cardiomyopathy UK is for anyone whose life is impacted by the heart muscle disease, cardiomyopathy. We work to save and improve the lives of people with the condition, and their loved ones, throughout the UK because we believe that everyone affected by cardiomyopathy should live a long and fulfilling life.
We bring together people with cardiomyopathy, their loved ones, medical experts, researchers, professional staff and other stakeholders to ensures we have the insight, lived experience, clinical knowledge and skills we need to make a real and lasting difference to people's lives.
We provide support and information so that nobody has to face cardiomyopathy alone. We fight for better access to treatment so more people get the help they need, we shape research so that it truly addresses the needs of our community and we raise awareness so more people seek help sooner and fewer people are at risk.
We are now seeking our next CEO to build on our strong position and enable us to do even more for our community. It is a great time to be joining the charity. We have a strategy in place, a strong reputation, and financial stability. Our new CEO will have the time they need to find their feet and use their creativity and strategic thinking to work with staff, trustees and volunteers to develop plans, raise ambitions and identify new ways in which we can support people affected by cardiomyopathy.
Our next CEO will be a strong leader, confident spokesperson, and powerful ambassador, who is able to develop successful partnerships and influence stakeholders to ensure the future growth and development of the charity. They will need to be commercially astute with proven expertise in driving financial sustainability and effective fundraising, and have the desire to foster a positive and caring culture.
Above all, our new CEO will share our values and passion for improving the lives of those living with cardiomyopathy and their families by making a positive difference. If you feel you have the passion, ambition, enthusiasm, and leadership skills we are looking for, I look forward to hearing from you.
