A rare and career-defining opportunity has arisen to lead a bold philanthropic initiative backed by committed, multi-million-pound capital. This newly created role, referred to as the Emissary, is suited to a strategic and globally minded leader who thrives at the intersection of purpose, diplomacy, and operational excellence.
The Mission
At the heart of this initiative lies a visionary global programme delivering transformative projects across Health, Heritage, Music & Education. The focus spans across India, East & Southern Africa, and the Caribbean, with partnerships forged with values-aligned organisations. The Emissary will be the driving force behind shaping, scaling, and safeguarding this mission—representing the programme, not the founder, in the public arena.

* Building and brokering high-value partnerships with governments, NGOs, and cultural institutions
* Leading end-to-end delivery of multi-regional, multi-sector projects
* Acting as the trusted bridge between vision and execution, with full operational autonomy
* Upholding gold-standard governance, compliance, and reputational stewardship
* Representing the initiative across international forums, with gravitas and authenticity
Who You Are
* A senior programme or transformation leader (15+ years), with global delivery experience
* Commercially astute, strategically sharp, and purpose-led
* Comfortable advising or working with UHNW individuals, family offices, or foundations
* A natural diplomat with cultural sensitivity, high emotional intelligence, and exceptional discretion
* Proven operator in complex, cross-sector environments—charity, public sector, or mission-led enterprise
* Motivated by impact over recognition—a change-maker who works behind the scenes
Why Apply
This is not a conventional role. It’s a once-in-a-career opportunity to shape global legacy projects, with the freedom to operate creatively and responsibly at the highest level. You will be given trust, resource, and remit—what you make of it will matter to the world.
