Hi all, 

I founded a charity back in 2018 and until recently we've been entirely volunteer run. We've now got our first staff member on a freelance basis which is great, and they report into me. As the founder/Chair I'm in essence a voluntary CEO and juggle that with my full time job - it's like having two jobs, and the charity stuff is gaining ever more steam (which is good). 

With the charity continuing to grow we're mooting the idea of potentially having a paid CEO role that I could then potentially go for.

It's trying to work out the balance though of how to progress this in a way that as the person who does most of the "doing" to get thing done, but also being cognisant of any potential conflicts of interest. But equally if I step back nothing would really forge ahead on the role - Catch 22. 

Any advice on how to navigate the conflict whilst forging ahead with proposals would be awesome.
