£60,000 + (£4500 pa pro rata London weighting if applicable)
About The Role
Compass is a national charity providing early intervention health and wellbeing services for children and young people, their families and care givers.
We are a values-based and focused organisation with a genuine commitment to delivering on our ambition to support children and young people to achieve their potential by responding to their unique health needs early and with purpose.
We are delighted to have seen significant growth in our delivery of direct services in schools and communities over recent years, which in turn has created an opportunity for the development of this new role.
Joining an established Senior Operational Management Team, this new post will work flexibly across England supporting new services and initiatives, leading transformational change, and supporting the rapid development of existing school nursing and wellbeing services. No two weeks will be the same!
About You
As Senior Operations Manager, you will have a Public Health Nursing qualification and a successful record of management and/or leadership delivering innovative and high-performing health, care or wellbeing services in a public health nursing role.

You will also be an excellent communicator and be able to develop and maintain positive working relationships with key stakeholders. The role is fully hybrid and will require frequent travel across our wider service locations and occasional overnight stays for which expenses will be paid. London weighting is also available if applicable.
