Are you passionate about improving the lives of less advantaged young adults?

If you’re proactive, self-motivated and have an entrepreneurial spirit, along with exceptional relationship building skills and a track record of success, this is a wonderful opportunity to truly make your mark and change lives, by joining The Photography Foundation as our first Fundraising Manager. 

We are looking for a very special person to enable our charity to grow and change the lives of young adults who have dreams of using their creative talents to build a career.

The Photography Foundation was founded in 2019 with the mission to create pathways to professional photography for less advantaged and under-represented young adults in London, empowering them to launch a career in the creative industries.

For many young adults, a lack of financial resources, opportunities or industry connections mean that a career in photography is out of reach. We believe that talent and motivation should be more important than who you know or where you come from, and it's our mission to make this a reality.

Focusing on the cultivation, development and stewardship of major donors, corporates and trusts, you will raise the funds needed for us to expand our programmes and support more young adults. We envisage that when the environment allows you will also bring high profile events into our strategy.

Using your strong creative writing abilities and excellent communication skills you will connect emotionally with potential donors, creating and delivering presentations, proposals, case studies and applications.

You will have proven experience of developing long term income generating relationships with senior level corporate contacts, high net worth individuals, trustees of foundations, and high profile volunteers. Your understanding of the importance of stewardship as the key to developing these relationships will be integral to your success and ours.

We are an informal, very friendly, passionate and sociable team based in the heart of Shoreditch with wonderful office and studio facilities. You will have the flexibility to determine your full working pattern and location, although one day a week will need to be office-based.

The Photography Foundation  is supported and funded by its sister organisation a social enterprise Storytellers London:

We support whistleblowers by providing free and confidential legal advice and we campaign for legal and policy reform. We’re looking for someone to help us in our role of supporting employers to implement effective whistleblowing arrangements.

The service we offer to organisations is unique and we work with a wide range of organisations in the public, private and charity sectors – and from FTSE to SMEs – to enhance their arrangements to protect employees throughout the UK. Whistleblowing has never been more important and the work we do encourages more employers to develop safe working cultures, where their staff are confident to speak up if they see wrongdoing.

We have a highly collaborative team, and therefore there will be opportunities to contribute to training, and get involved with the design of new webinars and resources for employers.

The vacancy would suit someone who wants to develop in a business support environment or a recent graduate who is interested in working in a legal environment.

You will be:

Tenacious, positive and smart working. You will ideally have had some customer facing or commercial experience, but this is not essential. What is essential is the confidence to make sales calls and be highly organised. Writing proposals and communicating well with employers will be essential, so we are looking for a person who has a professional writing style, is highly computer literate and has and great attention to detail.

We will be:
Collaborative, supportive and inspiring. You will be surrounded by colleagues who want you to succeed, and are passionate about creating a better world for whistleblowers. You will also be given the training you need to be a confident sales person and account manager.

Benefits of working at Protect:
– Flexibility. Even before the Covid crisis, team members worked flexibly and some from home. It is likely that our sales team will meet one day per week in our London office to share ideas and support. We are happy to talk flexible working.
– 30 days annual leave (FTE).
– Season ticket loan
– Pension with 4% employer contribution
– Sabbatical after five years’ service
