We particularly encourage candidates who are D/deaf or disabled or of Global Majority heritage to apply, as these groups are currently under-represented in the arts and charity sector.

You never know where it could lead!
Facilities Coordinator
We are looking for an individual with strong facilities maintenance, communication, and organisational skills, to be the point of contact for St Margaret's House during the evening.
The role is full-time, 35 hours per week, with a flexible working pattern due to the nature of this role being reactive to the needs of the organisation. Typically, the role will be 6 hours per day, Monday-Friday from 4:30pm - 10:30pm, with the remaining 5 hours per week either being ‘on call’ at the weekend, or spread across the week.
This is a new role for SMH and there will be a collaborative process to finalise the working patterns. The ideal candidate is passionate about working within and maintaining historic, community focussed buildings, and has an interest in arts and wellbeing.
Finance Mananger
We are seeking an experienced and energetic finance professional to join St Margaret’s House (SMH). As Finance Manager, you will work independently to lead SMH’s day-to-day financial operations including budgeting, financial reporting and compliance, while also providing strategic insights to guide the charity’s long-term financial planning. You will report directly to the Executive Director (Co-CEO).
You will join an ambitious, values-led organisation that has a newly appointed leadership team in place, a highly skilled, dynamic multi-disciplinary staff team, network of volunteers, all supported by a motivated and engaged Board of Trustees.
SMH delivers a broad range of activities. An arts and wellbeing programme is delivered by a team of freelance practitioners, a busy café staffed by kitchen and front of house teams, a thriving charity shop, and multiple properties that are let to other organisations that provide their own services that support our community. SMH’s Finance Manager will be responsible for financial processes across all these areas of the charity’s activity.
SMH is looking for someone with a strong background in finance, ideally within the charity or non-profit sector, who is passionate about making a difference.
Join our board of trustees

We are looking for someone with Creative Health expertise who can join our board and inform our Creative Health Strategy over the next few years. If this sounds like something you could help us with, we would love to hear from you. We define Creative Health as the means by which creativity will become the heart of public health.
