On 20th August 2011, Flt Lt Jon Egging lost his life whilst completing a display at the Bournemouth Air Festival. He was coming to the end of his first year with the world-famous Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, the Red Arrows. The Jon Egging Trust realises Jon’s dream of inspiring young people through his love of aviation, STEM, teamwork and leadership, helping them to overcome adversity, identify their strengths and work towards achieving their dreams.
We are now seeking a new Chief Executive to lead us forward as we continue to evolve and deepen our impact and to take our life-changing work out to as many young people as possible across the UK.
JET offers long-term support to young people from disadvantaged backgrounds who are struggling to engage at school and have lost focus, confidence and self-belief. We know that whilst potential is everywhere, opportunity is not. This is where JET steps in. We provide young people from disadvantaged backgrounds with the tools and belief to transition successfully into adult life. Inspiration, teamwork, leadership and employability are the pillars that have underpinned our methodology since 2012, and we know that our intensive, early-intervention Blue Skies programmes change lives.
You need not have been a Chief Executive before; what you will bring is strategic leadership ability, vision, emotional intelligence and a strong belief in and compassion for the young people we support. You will be an experienced leader with a strong track record of developing high performing teams and of working with a diverse range of stakeholders to influence and galvanise support. We are looking to you to grow our impact and deepen our work through meaningful relationships and commercial insight.
You will be a collaborative team player, who invests in people to be their best and who nurtures an inclusive high-performance culture. You will be a natural partnership builder and a compelling communicator able to influence and engage senior stakeholders, leverage future opportunities for our continued success and inspire others to join and support our vital work.
If this opportunity excites you and you believe you have the skills and experience to lead JET into its next chapter of growth and impact, please visit https://starfishsearch.com/jobs/jet-ceo/

Closing date is 24th May 2024
