Recruitment Specialist - Not for Profit sector

Harris Hill is delighted to be partnering with The Rochester Bridge Trust in their search for a Head of Governance and Communication.

The Rochester Bridge Trust is a historic and independent charity that has provided and maintained free-to-use crossings over the River Medway since 1399. Today, it continues this legacy with a net-zero approach and a strong charitable programme supporting engineering education, heritage, and the environment.

As Head of Governance & Communication, you will join the Senior Management Team and work closely with the Chief Executive (Bridge Clerk) to oversee a broad portfolio—including governance and trustee services, strategic communications, climate action, risk management, and organisational policy. You will be leading a small but dedicated team of professionals, ensuring high standards of performance, compliance, and delivery across your areas of responsibility.

Key requirements:

* Significant experience in a governance-focused role, including supporting Boards or Trustees at a senior level.
* Strong understanding of the legal and regulatory framework of the UK charity sector, including Charity Commission guidance.
* Excellent communication skills, with a track record of drafting policies, governance papers, agendas and minutes to a high standard.
* People management experience, with the ability to motivate and develop a team.
* Knowledge of risk, environmental reporting, or external comms is highly desirable, but not essential.

This is a rare opportunity to take a senior leadership role in an organisation that blends tradition with forward-thinking impact.

* Salary £65,000 per annum, plus great benefits.
* Working days Monday- Thursday, (office closed on Fridays)
* Permanent
* Location: Rochester, Kent. On site 4 days a week, with some flexibility to WFH in the future.

Please note, CVs are being reviewed on a rolling basis.

As leading charity recruitment specialists and a certified B Corp, Harris Hill is committed to high and ever-improving standards of equitable and inclusive recruitment. We actively welcome applications from all sections of the community regardless of age, disability, gender, race, religion, sexuality and other protected characteristics.
