It can be hard to know how to showcase yourself for a job you've never done before. Here are four skills to highlight when applying for a charity manager jobs.","contenttypes":[{"acf_fc_layout":"text_content","menu_title":"","content":"Working in the charity sector is a great opportunity to use your skills to do significant good in the world. Once you\u2019ve gained some experience in the field, you may feel it\u2019s a great time to step up and find a charity manager job.\r\n\r\nSo how should you go about applying? Your application and CV need to promote elements that spark your potential employer\u2019s interest in you, so you\u2019ll need to identify the skills and attributes that tend to be most in demand in the sector.\r\n\r\nWe\u2019re going to explore four skills to highlight when applying for charity manager jobs."},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_content","menu_title":"1. Show your willingness to learn","content":"<h2>1. Show your willingness to learn<\/h2>\r\nA sign of a good leader in any organisation is knowing their development isn\u2019t complete. To <a href=\"https:\/\/www.charityjob.co.uk\/careeradvice\/how-to-make-your-job-application-stand-out\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">stand out in your application<\/a>, you need to show how you keep your current skills sharp. Importantly, you must also communicate your willingness to engage with new learning opportunities.\r\n\r\nWhy is this so important in a charity sector role? Well, firstly, the organisation wants a solid investment. Charities have limited budgets, so they want to make sure you\u2019re a candidate who will continue to hone their skills.\r\n\r\nBut it\u2019s also about relevance. The industry is constantly changing. One study found that even during the pandemic, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncvo.org.uk\/news-and-insights\/news-index\/new-survey-digital-technology-during-the-pandemic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">81% of charities changed how they use digital tools<\/a>. You need to show you can adapt to the changes and even become an innovator in the field.\r\n\r\nTake courses directly related to maintaining and expanding your management abilities\u2014but go beyond this. Do some training in more varied yet useful fields. Web design and cybersecurity are particularly valuable at the moment. Highlighting these activities on your application will show you\u2019re committed to your growth.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone wp-image-6368\" src=\"https:\/\/www.charityjob.co.uk\/careeradvice\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Project-manager-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"project-manager\" width=\"875\" height=\"583\" \/>"},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_content","menu_title":"2. Demonstrate your relevant experience","content":"<h2>2. Demonstrate your relevant experience<\/h2>\r\nJumping straight into a charity manager role without experience isn\u2019t good for you or the charity. So finding opportunities to engage with managerial situations before you actually become a manager is essential preparation. It also communicates to potential charity sector employers that you\u2019ve been tested in the field.\r\n\r\nYou can get experience here no matter what role or industry you\u2019re currently working in. Speak to your line manager about opportunities for team leadership or managing small projects. Look for activities to not just introduce you to the day-to-day, but also the nuanced challenges of leadership.\r\n\r\nProject management can be a particularly useful experience in managing conflict. Projects rarely go completely smoothly from start to finish, so there\u2019s bound to be some friction between people or processes at some point. Taking time to understand these pain points, and learning methods to address them is vital for any manager. It also shows your management mindset is relevant to the current workplace.\r\n\r\nIn addition, you can gain important management experience outside of work. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.charityjob.co.uk\/careeradvice\/keep-work-and-home-life-separate\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Volunteer<\/a> for roles on committees or projects for local charities. This helps you to understand some of the specific leadership challenges in the sector. It can also help you to build connections who can vouch for your growing management skills on your application."},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_content","menu_title":"3. Highlight your humanity","content":"<h2>3. Highlight your humanity<\/h2>\r\nCharities are all about improving aspects of the world. They recognise our world is a fallible and vulnerable place. Similarly, managers in the sector can thrive by functioning as humans rather than management machines. Employees, in particular, tend to be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.researchgate.net\/publication\/338297932_Bridging_the_Gap_between_Authentic_Leadership_and_Employees_Communal_Relationships_through_Trust\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">more responsive to meaningful relationships with authentic managers<\/a> they can trust.\r\n\r\nThis means <a href=\"https:\/\/www.charityjob.co.uk\/careeradvice\/empathy-in-the-workplace\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">developing your sense of empathy<\/a> in your professional and personal life. People around you will make mistakes. But take the time to understand the challenges they may be facing that contributed to these. Share something of yourself with your colleagues. This will help you to build a reputation for being a genuine and sensitive leader.\r\n\r\nUsually, the best approach to this is to put examples of this behaviour on your CV in the experiences or personal attributes section. Provide instances of when you leaned on your humanity to address challenges and how your actions directly affected the results.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-14029\" src=\"https:\/\/charityjob.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Picture1.jpg\" alt=\"Group of 5 people looking at a laptop\" width=\"610\" height=\"407\" \/>"},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_content","menu_title":"4. Display your resilience and agility","content":"<h2>4. Display your resilience and agility<\/h2>\r\nIf you\u2019re a manager, you\u2019ll be confronted with significant challenges every day. The charity sector is no different. There is pressure to perform while juggling the various responsibilities of your team and those your charity supports. Succeeding in this type of environment needs managers to be resilient.\r\n\r\nSo you keep your head down and shut out the world? No. Resilience is about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/health\/mental-health\/how-to-practice-healthy-coping-strategies\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">establishing coping strategies to help you achieve some calm<\/a> under pressure. Remember, not all methods of coping are right for everyone. Commitment and practice will help you understand what works for you. Importantly, it can help you maintain your wellbeing while being an effective manager.\r\n\r\nAlongside resilience, you also need to show agility in your managerial approach. Charities, like businesses, benefit from growth. This requires you to think outside the box and avoid being static. Practice creative thinking exercises that help your cognitive, organisational and managerial flexibility.\r\n\r\nYou\u2019ll generally find your cover letter is the best place to include these in your application. Describe your resilience and the work you\u2019ve put into developing it. Write about how you\u2019ve used your agility to innovate or address challenges."},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_content","menu_title":"","content":"A charity manager job can be a rewarding opportunity, so it\u2019s important to make sure your application stands out.
