MOVE Europe’s (registered name The Move Partnership) vision is for every disabled young person to have choice and opportunities by learning independent movement. Our mission is to enable disabled young people to gain independent mobility through the use of the MOVE Programme, a 6-step programme used collaboratively in all aspects of an individual’s life, throughout their whole day, by all of the people that work and live with them. The MOVE ethos is centred around a ‘can-do’ approach, where everyone around the individual dares to dream and works on ambitious goals set by the child and their family. Because of this approach, individuals on the MOVE Programme achieve significant positive outcomes, and progress is usually made much quicker than if the person was just accessing traditional therapy services alone.

We work to achieve our mission through delivering the following activities throughout the UK to over 140 schools and therapy teams. Most of our current work is funded by trading income, where teams purchase our services and access support through membership.

• Training: we deliver high-quality training that empowers education and therapy teams to use the MOVE Programme with the disabled individuals they support.
• Support: we provide support services and quality assurance for the teams that use the MOVE Programme to ensure best practice and great outcomes for the disabled individuals they support. This includes network meetings, conferences, the MOVE Quality Mark, 1:1 support, webinars and CPD opportunities.
• Growth: we develop the MOVE Programme across the UK and Europe to reach as many disabled young people as possible who could benefit.

Role Overview

Join us at MOVE Europe in our 25th year of enabling disabled young people to learn independence through movement, as our Senior Trusts and Statutory Fundraiser. Reporting to the Director of MOVE Europe, and joining a small, agile, and highly effective team, the owner of this role will play a pivotal part in the organisation’s growth ambitions. 

The main purpose of the role is to develop and lead the organisation’s trust and statutory fundraising, working to grow a portfolio of new funders of various sizes (4 – 5 figures) and, through effective communication and stewardship, secure income for the organisation, as part of our 3-year strategy. As a new role within the team, the post-holder will have a brilliant opportunity to develop and lead our fundraising activity to create real change for the young people we support.

As with the rest of the MOVE Europe team, the post-holder will be employed by Enham Trust, but will be seconded to the MOVE Europe organisation.

About St Chad’s

St Chad's is a distinctive, independent college within Durham University.

St Chad's today is a vibrant academic community of over 600 students, including 150 postgraduates, belonging to all disciplines, yet still animated by the same aspirations for service and inclusion, welcoming students of all faiths, cultures, nationalities, and backgrounds. Rooted in its strong Anglican Christian tradition, its culture is friendly, inclusive, intellectually curious and forward thinking.

St Chad’s historic college buildings are situated on a World Heritage Site, adjacent to Durham Cathedral.  Students and staff work side by side, sharing the life of a multi‐ generational and interdisciplinary scholarly community. St Chad’s students are high achievers, regularly securing the highest academic results among the Durham colleges.  Outside undergraduate term‐time, St Chad’s runs commercial events and conferences. The College has a strong and supportive alumni community of whom over 6,000 are contactable.

We currently have the post(s) of Development Manager (Waterfront Transformation Project) available.

The Waterfront Transformation Project is our most important transformation in over a decade. It will link storytelling, heritage, community and hospitality to create a rich visitor experience and will be a catalyst for social and environmental improvements in the area. NML has ambitious capital plans for our waterfront sites, including the redevelopment of the International Slavery Museum (ISM) and Canning Docks, through our Waterfront Transformation Project which will be guided by people and communities at every step.

Liverpool’s waterfront is historically significant site, filled with many stories and histories including its pivotal role in the transatlantic slave trade. There has never been greater public demand or a more pertinent need to understand this heritage and discuss its legacies

This project is moving forward with generous support of £9.9million from The National Lottery Heritage Fund with thanks to National Lottery players in addition to the UK Government’s Levelling Up Fund. In order to achieve our goals, we have embarked on an ambitious £5m private fundraising campaign from charitable trusts and foundations, individuals and companies to transform the International Slavery Museum. The campaign will link seamlessly to the work being undertaken across the wider Waterfront Transformation Project and NML. A fundraising feasibility study has been completed and subsequently a Combined Fundraising Strategy is being implemented. This strategy will also allow NML to increase fundraising across the entire organisation whilst also delivering the capital campaign for the Waterfront Transformation Project.

The Development Manager (Waterfront Transformation Project) will play a central role in ensuring good stakeholder communications and the project management across this campaign. They will enable the Head of Development, Development Team, the wider Waterfront Transformation Project team and the Development Committee to drive fundraising forward, ensuring and implemented a coordinated approach across the implementation of capital elements of the Combined Fundraising Strategy.

This role provides an opportunity to play an instrumental role in a project of local, national and international significance, the legacies of which will have a positive impact for people and places for generations to come.

We are looking for an individual who is excited about our ambitions for the Waterfront Transformation Project and the positive changes it will create. You may be someone with extensive experience in heritage of cultural fundraising, but we are equally open to applications from other not-for-profit sectors, higher education and government, where the stakeholder relationships and project management skills required are similar. What is important is your ability to work across a range of teams and representing NML to key funders and stakeholders to deliver the fundraising aspects of a project of this scale.

You will also be someone who wants to engage with the stories that the International Slavery Museum (ISM) tells, whatever your background and heritage, with a particular emphasis on understanding the needs of communities most affected by the outcomes of the project.

We will help you to develop your ability to articulate and engage with the impacts of the stories that ISM tells, and to represent these impacts with compelling, respectful and positive funding processes and storytelling.
