A fantastic opportunity has arisen for a full time Regional Operations Support Manager to join the Volunteer Operations directorate.
SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity, has been providing practical, emotional, and financial support to our Forces and their families since 1885.

SSAFA understands that behind every uniform is a person. We are here for that person – any time they need us, in any way they need us, for as long as they need us.
