Our work is needed now more than ever before. This is why we have embarked on an exciting new strategy to make tackling low numeracy an urgent, national issue. However, we will only achieve significant and lasting change by engaging other organisations to support and fund our work.
We work with a wide range of partners: from corporate supporters and charitable trusts and foundations to employers, such as the NHS, unions, charities and the government. All of this is supported by a fantastic staff team, a highly active Board of Trustees and the National Numeracy Leadership Council.
We have an exciting new role for a skilled partnerships fundraiser to join our supportive team. You will spot and develop opportunities to establish new partnerships, as well as manage and help develop our group of amazing partners.
This role would suit a fundraising or partnerships executive, or equivalent, looking to step up, or it could be a great opportunity for someone looking for a new challenge and keen to take the lead on an increasing number of innovative, high-profile national partnerships.
You’ll need to communicate the vital importance of our goals in a way that persuades organisations to work with and, crucially, to fund our work. New business development and ongoing relationship management are crucial as we seek to establish long-term partners and sustainable income streams for the organisation. As Partnerships Manager, you will play an important role in realising our vision.
We are looking for someone who is flexible, a self-starter and able to use their own initiative to generate ideas as well as leads. It’s not imperative that you come from the charity sector as long as you can show us that you have relevant transferable skills and an understanding of what it takes to be successful in this role. We welcome applications from people who may have struggled with maths and numbers and have a personal understanding of the experiences of our beneficiaries.
National Numeracy is based near Brighton but with significant home working potential. The expectation is that you will be in the office occasionally when the work requires it, but we offer significant flexibility opportunities. The role may include regular travel to London and beyond.
We welcome applications from candidates looking to work either four or five days per week.

Refugee Biriyani and Bananas (RBB) is a small grassroots organisation that provides humanitarian aid to displaced communities in Greece and worldwide. We are looking for someone with the skills and determination to help grow our charity over the coming years through effective fundraising across various revenue streams.
We are looking to grow from a small to medium-sized charity over the coming years and to scale the humanitarian aid we can provide across multiple locations. RBB is led by founder and CEO Ruhi Akhtar, 5 engaged Trustees, and a small team of staff and volunteers running our programmes.
To achieve this, we are opening this new role in RBB, looking for an experienced, creative and driven Fundraising Manager with a proven track record of income generation for small charities. The individual will lead on all aspects of our revenue growth with a focus on building a pipeline of opportunities and fundraising capacity across the organisation. We expect there to be a focus across all revenue streams including, but not limited to, Trusts and Foundations, Crowdfunding and Individual Donations.
Role Summary
The person in this role will work closely with the CEO to improve and execute on RBB’s new Fundraising Strategy with the aim to generate more income for our objectives. We expect the incoming Fundraising Manager to continue work on improving and defining our strategy and to execute upon it.
To date, RBB’s CEO has split her time across fundraising and project implementation. This role will provide additional capacity to focus on the overall development of the charity, as well as providing specialist expertise. As such, the ideal candidate will be self-motivated and proactive in identifying the key priorities of work to be done and to take a lead.
RBB has a strong track record with small grants and public crowdfunding. Our ideal Fundraising Manager has experience across both these areas and can manage these strands. Alongside these, we have further ambitions to grow our individual donations – including growing recurring donations – as well as corporate in-kind and financial donations.

This is the second full-time role taken on by the charity. As such, the selected individual will become a core part of our small but ambitious charity. The right candidate will demonstrate a passion for helping charities grow in size and impact, and ideally have experience in the refugee and migrant sectors. The Fundraising Manager will be expected to represent the charity publicly to donors and the wider third sector.
The ideal candidate will have a good understanding of charitable/business development more generally, including Impact Measurement, Communications, Strategy and Project Management.
This role is remote. However, we expect the selected candidate to visit the charity’s work in the field – most likely in Greece – during the first few months of work, and work alongside staff and volunteers to better understand the situation on the ground. We believe this is important to fully understand and represent the charity. All travel costs will be covered by the charity.
Hiring a Fundraising Manager is an incredibly exciting step for us as a charity. For the right candidate this should also be an incredibly exciting opportunity to be part of the early-stage growth of an impactful and grassroots charity.
