About Sydenham Garden

Based in Lewisham in South-East London, Sydenham Garden is a unique wellbeing centre utilising its gardens, nature reserve and activity rooms to help people living with and recovering from mental and physical ill-health. We provide nature and arts based creative, social and therapeutic activities for co-workers (the name we give to our primary beneficiaries).

About the role 

Our Director has been in post since November 2021 and on returning from maternity leave in January 2026 she will be working 3 days a week.  We are seeking a Co-Director to jointly lead the organisation going forwards as we have made a positive decision to move towards a co-director model.  This is an exciting opportunity which can have benefits of increasing capacity, efficiency, and transparency and allow for a broader range of identities both to better reflect the diverse populations they serve and as a way to include more diverse leaders. It is a model that can also reduce burnout, build equity, and support flexible working.

As Co-Director you will be jointly responsible for leading and manage the day-to-day running of Sydenham Garden for the benefit of our co-workers.  This will involve overseeing implementation and regular review of Sydenham Garden’s strategic plan and to ensure all governance arrangements are in place to monitor the work of the organisation and to report to the Board of Trustees and to funders.

You will ensure fundraising and financial plans and processes are in place to deliver the agreed services, including fundraising from Trusts & Foundations, community fundraising and developing contracted services as necessary.

The Co-Directors will be jointly accountable to the Trustee Board for all aspects of the job description. You may take lead responsibility on particular areas which will be discussed and agreed with the existing Co-Director and Trustee Board.

About You

You are a confident and compassionate leader with a commitment to the mental health and wellbeing sector.  You bring a thoughtful, strategic and inclusive approach to leadership.

Your communication skills are excellent, and you’re able to build strong, trusting relationships with colleagues at all levels, as well as with external partners, funders, and stakeholders.  You are deeply committed to Equity, Diversity and Inclusion, with a clear track record of putting these values into practice.

You have a proven experience in securing income for charitable work and are confident in financial management and planning. 

You also understand the value of co-production and have experience working collaboratively with volunteers and co-workers (service users), ensuring their voices are central to service design and delivery.

We’re looking for someone who is dedicated to the mission of Sydenham Garden and has relevant experience at management level in a mental health charity of similar organisation. 

How to apply

Candidates will be shortlisted based on:

· Experience of working at a management level in a mental health charity or comparable organisation. 

· An excellent strategic thinker with experience of input into strategic development and implementation.

· Good communication skills and the ability to build relationships with colleagues at all levels in an organisation and with external contacts and partners. 

· A proven commitment to Equity, Diversity and Inclusion.

· Experience of line managing and developing staff, including through appraisal systems. 

· Proven ability to secure income, manage fundraising processes and to manage and produce fundraising applications.

Harris Hill is delighted to be working on behalf of The Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award Foundation, a global force for youth development, as they recruit a Philanthropy Manager to join their dedicated fundraising team.

This is an exceptional opportunity for a talented relationship fundraiser to work with one of the most respected international youth charities. Whether you're an experienced philanthropy professional or someone looking to step up into a high-value fundraising role, we’d love to hear from you.

About the Role

Location: Southwark, London (Hybrid 2 days in the office)
Salary: £39,000 per annum
Contract: Permanent
Deadline: Monday, 11th August 2025
Interviews: Virtual interviews on Wednesday, 13th August 2025

You’ll manage and grow a portfolio of engaged and generous donors—many of whom are already passionate about the Foundation’s mission. Reporting to the Head of World Fellowship and Philanthropy, you will both deepen relationships and help attract new high-value supporters globally.

This role is a 50/50 split between stewardship and acquisition, and would suit someone confident, organised, and strategic, with a natural flair for engaging high-level individuals. Given the Foundation’s global reach, some international travel may be required to attend events or meet donors.

This could be an ideal step up for someone ready to manage their own portfolio, or a seasoned fundraiser looking for an international-facing challenge.

Above all, you’ll be:

• A skilled relationship manager with strong communication skills
• Comfortable working with senior stakeholders and culturally diverse networks
• Motivated by making a global impact on young people’s lives
• A team player who thrives in a collaborative and supportive team culture
