Co-CEO – Corporate Responsibility

The Green Team – recruitment for new role

• Permanent contract, 21 hours per week
• Closing date 6:00pm on Friday 6 September 2024

Overview

The Green Team was founded in 1995 to support young people to succeed in achieving the Duke of
Edinburgh award. Since then, the team has grown significantly and now offers nine programmes
along with corporate volunteering days and holiday activities. From one member of staff and a
few volunteers, we now have 10 staff and over 50 volunteers.

The growth of the team since 1995 has been primarily driven by our current CEO, Penny Radway.
The size of the organisation and number of programmes run mean that we believe the time is
right to introduce a dual CEO approach. Penny will focus on CEO responsibilities for delivering
our programmes and we are looking to recruit someone passionate about the outdoors and helping
young people to become our CEO for corporate responsibility. We believe this represents an
exceptional opportunity to help shape the Green Team strategy for the next decade, continue to
grow the team and further enhance its reputation.
