About the Foundation
We’re an independent charitable foundation funded by Lloyds Banking Group. We work in partnership with small and local charities, people and communities, changing lives and working towards a more just and compassionate society.
This is an exciting time to join Lloyds Bank Foundation. We are coming to the end of our strategy period and under the leadership of a new CEO, we are developing and rolling out our new strategy, brand and values. We believe this will enable us to turbocharge our work, allowing us to have an even bigger impact to create social change and cohesion and ensuring people in England and Wales are in a good place.
About the Programme
The Foundation has been awarded a £2.1m grant by the National Lottery Community Fund (NLCF) to deliver a pilot as part of it's Grant Holder Support programme. This pilot, Investing in the Power of Civil Society (IIPCS), will support up to 640 charities across the Northwest, Southwest of England and Yorkshire and Humber .
Delivered in partnership with eight organisations — IVAR, Groundwork UK and local trusts, CAST, The School for Social Entrepreneurs, NCVO, Voice4Change England, the AVOCADO Foundation and Access (advisory) — the pilot will offer diagnostic-led, tailored and relational support to help organisations strengthen their work.
Support will focus on resilience, environmental impact, readiness for AI and digital technology, enabling participating charities to adapt and thrive in a rapidly changing world. With a strong emphasis on equity and access, the pilot is designed to ensure organisations of all sizes and backgrounds can benefit.
We will be using a test-and-learn approach — trying out new ways of supporting charities, learning from what works and what doesn’t, and using those insights to improve future programmes. This approach will help shape NLCF’s future support for both grant holders and grant seekers, strengthen the Foundation and partners’ own development practice, and contribute to wider learning across the sector.
About the Role
As Relationship Manager, you’ll play a pivotal role in delivering this new, collaborative pilot programme. You’ll be the key point of contact for grant holders referred into the programme, guiding them through a diagnostic process, co-creating tailored development plans, and connecting them with the right support.
You’ll also work closely with National Lottery Community Fund Funding Officers, helping them make confident and effective referrals. Your work will ensure that learning from these relationships directly informs the future design of the programme and how the UK’s largest non-statutory community funder supports small charities.
This is a highly relational role that requires empathy, curiosity, and a deep understanding of the voluntary sector.
The Benefits
- Salary of £48,240 per annum (FTE)
- There is flexibility as to where this role is based; however, regular travel to London and across England will be required, with some overnight stays
- A further list of benefits can be found on the Lloyds Bank Foundation website.
About You
You are passionate about supporting small and local charities and have a strong understanding of the challenges they face.
You bring experience of working directly with organisations to identify development goals, build capacity, and improve service delivery.
You are a confident relationship-builder, able to engage with a wide range of stakeholders—from charity leaders to funders and delivery partners. You are organised, adaptable, and comfortable managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.
To be considered for this role, you will need:
- Strong knowledge of the voluntary sector, particularly small and local charities.
- Experience supporting organisations through capacity-building or development work.
- Excellent interpersonal and facilitation skills, both in-person and virtually.
- Strong communication and critical thinking skills.
- Confidence using CRM systems and digital tools.
- A commitment to equity, diversity, inclusion, and social justice.
Experience working in partnerships or consortia, or familiarity with test-and-learn approaches, would be a bonus.
So, if you’re ready to bring your expertise to a collaborative, test-and-learn programme as a Relationship Manager, please apply via the button shown. We are hoping for an immediate start for the position or as soon as possible thereafter.
- The deadline for applications is Sunday 7th December at 23:30.
- Interviews with shortlisted candidates will be held online on Thursday 18th December.
We support small, local and specialist charities across England and Wales.
