Dogs Trust is an extraordinary success story. Founded in 1891, today we are the largest dog charity in the UK.

We work to bring about the day when all dogs can enjoy a happy life, free from the threat of unnecessary destruction. That means we promise never to destroy a healthy dog. Indeed, we’re as focused on preventing abandonment as we are on providing exceptional rehoming facilities for when things do go wrong.

We’ve grown from 9 to 21 rehoming centres in the last 25 years. We now care for over 15,000 dogs every year, run workshops for over 300,000 school children and support 12,000 new dog owners through our Dog School programmes.

But we could do even more!

We’re looking for a really exceptional person to take on the role of CEO, leading us to consolidate and build on our achievements to further improve dog welfare.

This is the complete CEO role: strategy, management, leadership, income generation, advocacy and policy – and since our reach is now international, you’ll need to show you can lead a globally respected charity and brand.

Strong candidates should have led a comparable organisation (£50m+ turnover, 1000+ staff and volunteers) and will bring a warm, positive and upbeat leadership style, which inspires and motivates people to
deliver our mission with passion and enthusiasm.

If you’re passionate about dogs, and the people who love them, this role will change not only your life but those of hundreds of thousands of others – dogs and their carers – across the world. We dare you to turn them down.
