The Advocacy Academy is an activist youth movement. We serve as the political home for grassroots youth organising and the catalyst for collective action. The lives of the young people we work alongside have been directly shaped by living in an unjust world, and we exist to turn their anger into action. 

Young people are often the catalysts for major social change, from the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee at the heart of the Civil Rights Movement, to the Soweto Uprising mobilising young people to resist the apartheid regime's education policies, to the Sunrise Movement redrawing the electoral map across America, and more recently encampments and protests across the world protesting the genocide in Palestine. How successfully they achieve real and lasting change depends on whether they are organised and whether they have the right strategy and tactics to be effective.

As our Application Support Manager, you’ll play a crucial role in ensuring the systems we rely on every day are effective, efficient, and empowering. You’ll be at the heart of our mission—enabling our teams to do what they do best: support young people into work, education, or training.

In this role, you’ll lead and develop a skilled Application Support team, providing oversight of our business-critical platforms.

The role

The organisation funds the generation of high-quality evidence to improve the lives of vulnerable children and families in England.

The organisation

This is a great place to work, where everyone is high performing and where together everyone can achieve impact that makes a real difference for vulnerable children and families. Focussing on using and championing high quality evidence, working directly with government and local leaders, the team provides practical solutions and encourages change. This is an organisation with ambitious aims and people are essential to its success.

Some of the great benefits include:

• 30 days annual leave, plus one extra day off for your birthday, paid bank holidays with up to three which may be switched for religious observance
• Up to five days carers’ leave, in a 12-month period, three days paid

The organisation offers excellent salaries, learning and development opportunities, and a great office location situated in the heart of St James’s.

Please note that where staff live within approximately two hours travel of the office, they are expected to work onsite two days per week. For those based further afield, more flexible or home working arrangements can be discussed.

Do you want to work somewhere that values and celebrate diversity and are committed to providing an inclusive environment for all employees? People are at the heart of everything. It’s vital that the workforce reflects the diversity of stakeholders, and the wider society in the UK, and we actively seek candidates from diverse backgrounds and communities.

At Trees for Cities, we believe access to trees and nature is essential for the health and well-being of communities. We focus our work where it’s needed most — in areas facing environmental, social, and economic disadvantage — putting us at the forefront of climate and community justice across the UK.

Trees for Cities is the only national charity dedicated to improve lives by planting, protecting and promoting urban trees. We do this by working closely with communities, landowners, partners and funders to deliver transformational change in towns and cities across the UK. We plant trees in schools, streets, estates, parks and open spaces to create nature-rich urban woodland, hedgerows, orchards, avenues and playgrounds.

As we approach the final year of our strategic plan, The Turn of Trees (2022–2025), we’ve seen inspiring growth and diversification in funding from major supporters like the National Lottery Community Fund and The People’s Postcode Lottery. Now, as we prepare to launch our 2025–2030 strategy, our goal is clear: build a national movement for tree equity that places communities, cities, and biodiversity at the heart of everything we do.

Your role:

We’re seeking a passionate and experienced Senior Grant Fundraising Manager to lead our grant fundraising efforts — managing and growing a portfolio of major funders, generating around £1.2m annually from central government, lotteries, trusts, and foundations. You will:

• Develop compelling, tailored grant applications

• Build strong, lasting relationships with funders

• Work collaboratively across teams to bring our projects and vision to life

• Innovate and diversify income streams to ensure a sustainable future

Why Trees for Cities?

This is a unique opportunity to contribute directly to urban climate action through the power of trees. You’ll join a warm, vibrant, and inclusive organisation where your work has visible, tangible impact in communities across the UK. From community planting events to daily table tennis, you’ll quickly become part of a motivated and collaborative team driven by a shared mission.

Who we’re looking for:

An outstanding grant fundraiser with a proven track record of securing large, multi-year grants and navigating the competitive funding landscape. You thrive in collaborative environments and are skilled at communicating and influencing across teams to achieve shared goals. Most importantly, you are deeply committed to driving positive social and environmental change.
