One in five people among us, over 14 million in total across the UK, are unable to thrive because of a lack of money. Turn2us exists to help people struggling to make ends meet. We do this by giving direct financial help through our own charitable grants; supporting people to increase their income through benefits, grants and other support; and by highlighting ways to reduce essential costs.

We’re looking for an Impact and Learning Analyst to be part of our fight against the poverty that is devastating lives across Britain today.  Joining a vibrant and creative team, the right person will be passionate about tackling UK poverty, and driven to measure the impact of work, so that the charity can continuously learn and improve. Full and part time applicants will be considered.

As Impact and Learning Analyst, you will be responsible for implementing a user-led evaluation plan and for setting up processes that encourage continuous learning across Turn2us. The role will also manage the day-to-day measurement and monitoring of impact data across the charity.

Although technical skills are required to perform this role, an open and inclusive approach to evaluation and impact is also essential. We believe that deep knowledge and understanding are created through discussion between people. We are looking for someone who can support colleagues at Turn2us to learn from, and improve, our work.

The Impact Analyst will also work to include service users, in measuring and learning from our past performance. By working in partnership with people with lived experience, Turn2us’s strategy, services and outcomes will more fully reflect what people want and need. We particularly welcome applications from anyone who has their own lived experience of poverty, or financial hardship.

This is a key role for an ambitious charity and at an exciting time of change and growth.  If you wish to be part of that, and to help improve the lives of people in vulnerable circumstances across the UK, we look forward to hearing from you.

Classics for All is a nationwide charity working to raise the aspirations of young people in state schools by introducing them to the wonders of the ancient world. Since our inception we have trained over 2,500 teachers to put Latin, ancient history, classical civilisation and Ancient Greek on their school timetables. This has reached over 55,000 young people across 900 primary and secondary schools.

Equality of education and social opportunity is at the heart of Classics for All.  More than half of the schools we support are in areas of high deprivation. Classics are often seen as elitist and inaccessible – the preserve of private schools. Yet we know that learning about the Romans and Greeks – Gods, gladiators, myths, philosophy, The Iliad and The Odyssey – fires the imagination of all pupils, including those that are often disengaged from learning. Pupils of all ages are embracing the enriching experience of learning about the ancient world and its languages. 

Deliver, manage and implement fundraising activities for the 2020/21 years, including a major fundraising appeal, matched funding campaigns, legacy activity and a gala fundraising dinner. The role will also support the stewardship of existing major donors, business development and collaboration with the Development Committee.

In anticipation of her maternity leave from late October 2020, our Senior Philanthropy Manager has put a series of fundraising campaigns and events in place for the next fifteen months. We are looking for an experienced fundraising and events manager to pick up on successfully managing and delivering these from mid-October 2020. 

Working closely with the Executive Director and Development Committee in a small charity of 5.4 fte staff, the successful candidate will take the lead on key fundraising campaigns and events.

Due to Covid-19 Classics for All had to postpone most of its planned Tenth Anniversary events. The immediate focus for this role therefore is to manage existing fundraising campaigns during the final quarter of 2020 to reach our revised remaining fundraising target of £250k. This includes a general campaign which will launch in September and a match funding campaign in early December (Big Give Christmas Challenge).

With events scheduled throughout the following year there will be plenty of opportunity to engage with existing and potential donors. During 2021 the focus of this role will be organising a successful Gala Fundraising Dinner at Goldsmiths’ Hall with a target of at least £350k. Another priority will be attracting £25k in pledges during the summer for the Big Give match fundraising campaign taking place at the end of the year.

We are looking for an experienced fundraising and events manager with a proven record of meeting targets. You will be keen to take on a fixed-term contract which is a maternity cover for our existing Senior Philanthropy Manager. She will provide a detailed workplan and you will work in conjunction with the Executive Director who oversees fundraising and manages Trusts & Foundations. You will be supported by a large number of active senior level volunteers with a wide range of expertise. Our committed board of eleven Trustees bring a breadth and depth of experience in education, business and finance. They are led by our dynamic Chairman Geoffrey de Jager, an active philanthropist and former successful entrepreneur.

The role requires exceptional interpersonal skills, extensive experience of major donor fundraising including gala fundraising dinners (or similar) and match funding campaigns, and an interest and empathy for the work we are doing in state schools. This is a part time (two and a half to three days a week) salaried role with pension benefits and flexible working arrangements.

Despite a challenging year, our charity has seen unrelenting demand for its work and its small team works effectively to meet that demand. Classics for All enjoys a healthy number of supporters, with a track record of giving, who have been kept regularly informed of our programme of work in state schools. You will use your networks and communication and fundraising skills to ensure successful outcomes for our events and funding campaigns during this maternity cover period.

We are recruiting for a Community and Events Officer to join the small fundraising team of this homelessness charity. Their community and events programme is reasonably small and they want an ambitious and creative fundraiser to join them to help develop this area.

The role will focus on building strong relationships with various community groups including schools, faith groups, small businesses etc and looking after events participants. You will need to be a pro-active and positive person who loves working with people.

You will be responsible for:

• Generating new relationships with all community groups including faith groups, schools, rotary clubs etc.

- Maintaining and up-lifting the value of relationships with all existing community supporters, thinking of new and exciting ways to engage them.

• Developing new virtual events and community fundraising products

You will have:

• Some experience in community or event fundraising


• Experience of public speaking and working with volunteers


• Excellent relationship building skills and genuinely enjoy working with new community groups and supporters

Closing date: 7^th August

Salary: £26,000 - £28,000
