Role Summary 

We’re looking for a Trusts and Foundations Fundraiser with strong bid writing expertise, and a commitment to helping grassroots organisations thrive.

As AWN’s Trusts and Foundations Fundraiser, you will be at the heart of our mission – unlocking vital funding for primarily Muslim-led organisations that are often overlooked by mainstream grantmakers.

This is a highly collaborative role that requires excellent communication, deep sector knowledge, and the ability to build capacity where it’s needed most.

This is a unique opportunity to work in a niche but powerful space – combining technical grant writing with purposeful, community-empowering work.

• Promote AWN’s funding support services across networks and platforms. 

• Represent AWN at sector events and advocacy platforms. 

• Track and evaluate the impact of bid writing support to inform strategy, reporting, and learning. Use feedback from unsuccessful bids to build learning resources and improve future applications.

• Maintain accurate CRM records and reporting systems. 

• Any other duties deemed appropriate for the role. 

Person Specification 

• Demonstrated experience in writing successful bids or grant applications 

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills 

• Strong understanding of the UK charity and funding landscape 

• Cultural competency and understanding of issues affecting UK Muslim communities 

• Ability to work independently and manage multiple deadlines 

• Experience of working in small and dynamic teams 

• Proficiency in Microsoft 365, CRM systems and familiar with digital platforms 

• Experience delivering training or webinars 

• Established relationships in the UK funding or Muslim charity sector 

• Experience working in a start-up or small charity environment

This role is currently remote and we will expect some travel into London for planned in-person meetings.
