REF-222 658

Our client is one of the UK's largest independent funders, awarding £100 million annually to charities across the UK. Our grant-making supports initiatives in health, welfare, education, the arts, and heritage.

The Trust was founded to realise the philanthropic vision of Sir Hans Rausing and to honour the memory of his late wife, Julia Rausing. Julia's legacy is rooted in a belief in a healthy, compassionate society-one that cares for the vulnerable, broadens opportunity, and enriches life through creativity and cultural engagement. The Trust takes a broad, strategic, and relational approach to philanthropy, remaining agile and responsive while grounded in personal values. 

Prospectus is delighted to be working with The Trust to recruit an Operations Executive to join the team based full-time from the office in Chelsea, London.

The Role:

As the Trust grows in activity and complexity-including its recent transition to a Charitable Incorporated Organisation-we are creating a new role: Operations Executive. This role sits at the heart of the organisation, ensuring our operations run smoothly while supporting the Chief Executive with executive coordination and administration.

Though not a grant-making role, this position offers valuable insight into the charity sector and the inner workings of a major philanthropic organisation. You will be responsible for a wide range of operational and strategic support functions - from facilities and IT systems to Board coordination and external communications. It's a unique opportunity for a capable and enthusiastic individual to play a vital part in our continued growth and impact.

The person:

This successful candidate will have a substantial track record in providing operational and administrative support in a busy office environment, ideally but not essentially in the charity or not-for-profit sector. This will have involved exposure to office and facilities management, reception and visitor support, internal and external relationship management, governance and compliance, finance and budgeting in addition to PA or EA type support to a CEO or senior management teams.

The key to this role lies in its breadth, and being able to see the bigger picture, anticipating needs and to plan ahead effectively to provide comprehensive support across this small but very busy organisation. Highly organised with excellent attention to detail, this person will be able to multi-task and prioritise various pieces of work across the business. They will be collaborative and will be able to tailor their skills to a wide range of needs and if something is not within their immediate skills set, they will have the confidence and initiative to seek out solutions and make them work. Strong written and verbal communications and proficiency in all MS Office packages and experience with SharePoint and Zoom will be important in addition to being confident in proofreading and formatting documents for board papers and reports. Strong budget monitoring abilities and an understanding of data protection and confidentiality standards will also me important.

Experience of having worked in small, busy organisations where a broad knowledge across office based systems will be crucial, with the flexibility and adaptability to tailor skills where necessary and to seek out workable solutions to a wide range of issues. An exposure to HR processes will also be useful as well as being genuinely interested in the important work of the Trust. This role lies at the heart of the organisation and will be central to its ongoing success in meeting its charitable aims and objectives.

This would be ideal for someone at the beginning of their career looking to grow and develop within a very supportive and innovative organisation.  We will provide a structured development programme, lots of opportunities for growth, along with a very nurturing, mission-focused culture and excellent benefits.

This role will support the Head of Environments, Platforms and IT Security to ensure that our technology infrastructure is reliable, safe and future-proofed. As required, the role holder will also support project implementation within the Technology Operations remit, having a direct impact in moving us forward in realising our vision and mission.

As a result of our Christian ethos, this post is covered by an Occupational Requirement (OR) under Part 1 of Schedule 9 to the Equality Act 2010. The successful applicant will be expected to be a practising Christian and to clearly demonstrate a personal commitment to the mission, principles, values and practices contained in our Ethos Statement, by:

South Bank Students Union is a non-for-profit organisation, which champions social mobility through education and has a vision to disrupt the cycle of inequality in higher education. 

​

We are looking for a Student Voice Coordinator to join our new team as we embark on a five-year strategy to transform the way we engage and support students to help them reach their full potential.​

​

​

Nowhere is inequality in our education system more recognisable than in higher education, where those from the most privileged backgrounds still have the most equity and most chances to achieve and succeed.

​

South Bank students have high expectations and ambitions for themselves but lead complex lives where they are faced with the pressures of trying to balance their studies with work and juggling their lives at home. In fact, many don't identify primarily as students, but instead as carers, nurses, engineers, parents, designers, workers, entrepreneurs, apprentices, last chance learners and Londoners. 

​

At South Bank Students' Union we believe that a student's background and life circumstances should not put them at an educational disadvantage, and all students deserve a high-quality University experience and the chance to graduate equipped with the tools to succeed in life - this role is at the heart of this work. 

​

Alongside our current Student Voice Coordinator, the person in this role will be responsible for delivering the Union’s key Student Voice programmes which include: our course rep scheme; student issues tracking; focus groups and officer insight campaigns. They will also provide support for student leaders. This includes supporting the effective election, induction and ongoing development of the Union’s President, Lead Representatives and democratic processes.

​

We are looking for someone who can truly understand the lived experiences of those who have faced societal barriers to participation, and who is motivated by delivering work which aims to challenge and remove these norms. 

​

​

Commitment to Equality, Diversity & Inclusion

​

SBSU’s simple vision of disrupting inequality is the heartbeat of the organisation and it is this which steers its decisions, practice, and priorities. It unifies our services, and it drives our staff to remove societal barriers so that all people can achieve their full potential.

​

SBSU believes that in order to truly disrupt inequality for its members, it must also strive to do this for its workforce – in short, staff must experience it in order to deliver it!

​

Our Union benefits enormously from having a team of staff with a range of diverse lived experiences. We understand that some life circumstances might be more complex, and that some will have had to overcome more barriers. We value the unique perspectives that are formed by an individual’s background and believe that ‘bringing your whole self to work’ is essential for informed decision making and collaboration and paves the way for high performance so we welcome applications from all, especially if your background and circumstances are traditionally under-represented in the workplace. 

​
