This is an exciting time in our diocese, with the launch of the vision of Transforming Church, Transforming Lives in 2016 leading to significant new missional energy in many of our churches, chaplaincies and schools. It’s been especially encouraging to witness the development of around 80 new worshipping communities since the launch, including four major projects in areas of new housing.

Over the past two years we have moved our diocesan teams into new, attractive, open-plan offices on the University of Surrey Research Park; and more recently we have embarked on a major review of the services we offer, seeking to ensure that our diocesan strategy gets well embedded, that our resources are efficiently managed, and that Church House Guildford is genuinely scratching where the parishes are itching. Note that due to the covid pandemic, our teams are currently working remotely from the safety of their homes.

We are looking for a proven practitioner and skilled technical and digital professional who can help us shape, plan and deliver the migration of our processes, systems and information to web-based services. In doing so you will help us to further streamline and improve our workflows at Church House whilst also making it easier for our parishes to access information.

We want someone with the right mix of experiences who can challenge, inspire and deliver in this area of specialism, but also a colleague who shares the passion and heart to reach and serve communities in this place.

The role is for 14 hours per week on a fixed term contract for 12 months. Our salaries are competitive within the charity sector with a generous non-contributory pension provision. Due to the Covid pandemic, we are currently able to work remotely from the safety of our own homes.

If you have the experience we are looking for and a passion to join us in our journey, we welcome an application from you. Your application should consist of a completed application form and supporting statement (no more than two sides of A4) detailing your reasons for applying, what you can bring to the post and how you meet its requirements. The closing date for receipt of applications is midnight on Sunday 12 July 2020.

We look forward to hearing from you!

And on community cohesion they will have a key part to play in the development of a proposed major new initiative in two of Redbridge’s most deprived and divided areas.

About us
Crisis is the national charity for homeless people. We know that homelessness is not inevitable. We know that together we can end it.

Since the coronavirus outbreak began, our society has pulled together to achieve extraordinary things. Thousands of people sleeping rough have been temporarily housed in a matter of weeks, and many more were prevented from becoming homeless due to emergency changes to legislation.

As we begin to emerge from lockdown, we now stand at a crossroads: we can build on the incredible progress that has been made by helping everyone move into a secure and permanent home; or we risk seeing thousands of people being forced into homelessness.

We are recruiting for a Philanthropy Manager to join our expanding Partnerships and Philanthropy team, to work alongside our inspirational supporters and beneficiaries to bring an end to homelessness in Great Britain.

About the role
As Philanthropy Manager, you will lead on launching and growing our new philanthropy Giving Club.

We have a well-established and loyal supporter audience already giving at this level and we want to provide them with an exceptional supporter experience, whilst also providing the engine room to grow our partnerships and philanthropy networks.

The philanthropy team have already grown income by 124% in recent years with a number of new team members in place, so now is a brilliant time to join now that we have clear plans in place for further growth, a great energy in the team and an incredibly urgent cause.

About you
To be successful in this role you will have

• Some experience of philanthropy fundraising, building strong relationships and securing gifts of 4 to 5 figures
• A natural flair for relationships and the ability to work equally well with a wide range of people
• Excellent communication skills, written, verbal and listening
• Knowledge of planning, monitoring and evaluating success in fundraising
• You will be a team player, with a flexible approach and the ability to collaborate well with others

Benefits
As a member of the team you will have access to a wide range of employee benefits including:

• Interest free loans to purchase a train season ticket or a bike or for a deposit to secure a tenancy
• Mandatory pension scheme, with an employer contribution of 8.5%
• 25 days’ annual leave which increases with service to 28 days

This is an exciting new developmental role, whose principle purpose is to recruit, engage and co-ordinate a group of local young people with the aim of enabling and empowering them to ensure their voices are heard and bring about change. This may include increasing their levels of confidence, improving their communication skills and improving their ability to self-advocate.  We envisage that the young people engaged will develop new projects and services in response to their needs and that of the local community.

Big Local SW11 along with 5 charities that make up the BLSW11 Alliance are working together for the young people of Battersea.  This role will include working across the 5 charities along with other voluntary organisations in Battersea.

Whilst ‘Battersea Youth Voice’ will be open to all young people, the Coordinator’s main role will be to target those young people that have been marginalised, deemed of as ‘hard to reach’ and who rarely have their voices heard.

Volunteer Cornwall is a charity dedicated to building social capital and developing the wellbeing of individuals and communities across Cornwall. We do this by working in collaboration with a wide range of organisations to promote and support active citizenship and voluntary action covering the emotional, social, environmental and economic needs and opportunities in Cornwall.
