THE CARES FAMILY: PARTNERSHIPS ASSOCIATE (CORPORATE FUNDRAISER)

ROLE FEATURES

• Full time, 12-month contract
• Salary: £30,000 (negotiable for exceptional candidates)
• 26 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays
• Flexible working hours
• Based in London

The Cares Family helps people find community and connection in a disconnected age. First established in 2011, our objectives are to reduce loneliness and isolation by creating and supporting meaningful mutual relationships between people who might not otherwise interact; to help people feel belonging, purpose and power in a rapidly changing world; and to bring people together to reduce the gaps across social, generational, digital, cultural and attitudinal divides.

In your role as The Cares Family’s Partnerships Associate, you will work closely with our Director of Development, Head of Development and Head of Community Fundraising to generate at least £200,000 from businesses and national corporate partners across the five branches of The Cares Family (North London Cares, South London Cares, Manchester Cares, Liverpool Cares, East London Cares) as well as for our new national projects.

This is an exciting time to join our ambitious fundraising team. Thanks to the expansion of corporate partnerships this year, you will be responsible for managing and delivering all volunteering and engagement opportunities with current partners to sustain and grow their support. New business development is also a core part of this role so you will create a robust pipeline of prospective corporate partners and convert new multi-year collaborations, sponsorships, and employee engagement and fundraising into income.

With so much of this role depending on relationships, we need a real people-person. You will have excellent organisational and people management skills to engage new businesses and deliver volunteer engagement opportunities. You will be ambitious, innovative and confident in scoping and pitching. We need someone who is passionate about people and who can clearly promote our vision for building friendships across deepening divides. If that sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you.

Interviews to be held 11 November

Overview:

Women for Women International works in some of the most dangerous places to be a woman. We serve women survivors of war in conflict and post-conflict areas around the world in 8 countries including Afghanistan, Iraq, Eastern Congo, and Northern Nigeria. Our core belief is that stronger women build stronger nations; and with access to knowledge, resources, and a support network, a woman rebuilds her life and improves her community.

Our model works and we have the data to prove it. In our 26-year history, Women for Women International has reached over half a million women. The women we work with across 3 continents earn just $0.81 a day when we enroll them. At graduation, it’s $2.11, nearly tripled.

Our impact goes beyond income. The number of women who say at least one household member went to sleep hungry in the last four weeks has gone from 18% to 5%. And more women say they speak out against women's abuse: 26% report having publicly spoken in the last 6 months against physically abusing women.

When women have the right tools, they realize the power within themselves to transform their lives, their families, their communities, and finally their entire nations.

Purpose:

Women for Women International has the ambition to dramatically increase grant funding to support programming that has been proven to be transformative for marginalized women survivors of war in fragile and conflict affected countries.

The global organization has strong teams that carry forward business development from the first identification of a prospect all the way through to the final grant report. This position is envisioned to help ensure that all the teams and the processes continue to work smoothly, efficiently and effectively.

The Hackney Playbus team is looking for a talented individual who is willing to absorb themselves in the ethos and work of our charity and use flair and enthusiasm to develop new ways of bringing in both short term and longer term funding streams. The charity has been going since 1972, we are approaching our 50th anniversary which offers a ‘not to be missed’ opportunity to raise our profile. We have a huge body of impactful work and a wealth of fundraising successes to draw upon and we are looking for an individual with fundraising experience, a flexible and creative approach to fundraising and an ‘eye to the winds of change’. The role would include fundraising from Trusts, Foundations, Lottery and Statutory funds as well as developing support from the business sector. 

The successful candidate will be interested in our work, our approach to supporting children and understand the essential role of supporting children and their parents/carers during the crucial early years. The ideal candidate will  have a passion for persuasive writing, they will be efficient, with good attention to detail, organised and a self starter. They will be reliable in meeting deadlines and be organised in working in collaboration both with the Director and the wider team in the development of larger multi year funding applications. They will be competent with numbers,  budgets and financial projections.

We're proud to be heading up the search party for one of the UK's leading children's charities who are looking for a Philanthropy Manager covering Yorkshire or the East Midlands patch. This is a really exciting role within a successful, growing philanthropy team and a brilliant opportunity to gain national charity experience working to support some of the region's most vulnerable children.

Home-based in either Yorkshire or the East Midlands with tons of flexibility, it's a grown-up culture open to suggested working patterns with a charity that understands the importance of life and family-friendly working. Condensed hours, a 9-day fortnight and 4 days per week are all possible.

You'll be working with high net worth individuals to secure major gifts across a wide ranging portfolio. Working closely with existing major donors and colleagues across corporate and community fundraising teams, there is plenty of opportunity to open up this network and make new connections, as well as using your creative business development head to find untrodden paths. This fantastic organisation is keen to build its major donor fundraising in these regions and so this really is a rare opportunity to join a successful team of high value donor fundraisers, responsible for raising the millions of pounds needed to continue the much needed work this charity does.

Ideally, we're looking for a major gifts expert, although this role could work equally well with a talented corporate fundraiser/business developer or a candidate from the commercial sector with experience of high-net worth individuals. You're used to operating at six-figure level with senior stakeholders and have the gravitas to steward key donors strategically.

Whatever your background, you're highly motivated and target driven with exceptional stewardship and relationship management skills who is comfortable in making significant asks. This isn't the job for a maverick: you'll need to be a collaborative team player who understands that a sharing and supportive culture yields better results and that, sometimes, a colleague will be better placed to manage a relationship than you.

If this is you, please get in touch with Ellen at Charity People who can fill you in on the role in more detail.

Trust and Foundations Manager

Salary: Circa £45K

Location: Poplar High St, Poplar, London E14 0AF

Reports to: Group Head of Strategic Projects

Work closely with: Senior Management Team; Poplar campus redevelopment team; Finance

Type of position: Full-time, permanent

Introduction to New City College

New City College (NCC) is the fourth largest further education college in England. It has been formed through five mergers: the merger between Tower Hamlets College and Hackney Community College in August 2016 and subsequent mergers with Redbridge College in April 2017, Epping Forest College in August 2018 and the mergers with Havering College of Further and Higher Education and Havering Sixth Form College in August 2019.

NCC currently has over 25,000 students with a small provision of 14-15 education, a large cohort of 16-18 students and a significant number of adult students. It offers over a 100 courses from A Levels, BTECs and ESOL to vocational subjects, such as business, IT, performing arts, trade skills and catering as well as pre-University courses. Throughout its intensive period of growth, NCC has maintained a focus on students and teaching and learning.

NCC is based in east London and has 10 sites in five local authorities: Tower Hamlets, Hackney, Redbridge, Epping Forest and Havering. The College continues to maintain its strong local presence, serving the needs of its local communities.

Join an ambitious and exciting redevelopment project

The College has an ambitious plan to redevelop its campus in Poplar. Located on Poplar High Street, right next to Poplar DLR station and within 200m of Canary Wharf and Crossrail, the current campus is formed of an amalgam of buildings from different areas. The oldest part is a 1894 Poplar library building and the campus also includes a grade II listed Naval College from 1906. Newer parts of the building are from 1990s and 2006. The current building is inefficient and it is no longer future proofed to accommodate education and training provision for decades to come.

As such, the College is looking to redevelop the new campus into a state-of-the-art education facility which provides a flexible learning environment, is aligned with industry requirements, is green, accessible and sustainable and celebrates the heritage of the local area and the Naval College. The new campus will be funded through an enabling development, built on the same site as the new campus. There is also an opportunity to enhance the public realm around the new development, including invigorating Poplar High Street.

As part of the early planning for the redevelopment, NCC has worked with fundraising consultancy More Partnership to assess the overall potential to seek philanthropic support for aspects of the redevelopment, including specific subject areas and student groups. From this, it is clear that there is considerable scope to engage Trusts and Foundations with the project and that resulting impact NCC has on the lives of young people in this part of London. 

As a result, NCC now wishes to appoint a Trusts and Foundations Manager to lead this work, and in so doing, to put in place a long-term and sustainable grant-focused fundraising programme.
