About the Role
Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP) is responding to the largest emergency in our 40+ year history. Over the last two and a half years, tens of thousands of new supporters have joined MAP, driving significant growth in income across individuals, trusts, foundations, and corporate partners. As we work to sustain this support — and with an ambition to become a £50m organisation by 2028 — high‑quality data and robust supporter operations are essential to our success.
The Supporter Database Manager plays a critical role in ensuring our supporter data is accurate, reliable, and fit for purpose. Managing the day‑to‑day operation of MAP’s supporter database, you’ll lead a small, specialist team and work closely with colleagues across Fundraising, Finance, Campaigns, and Digital, Data and Technology (DDT) to ensure income is processed correctly, data standards are upheld, and our systems support effective fundraising, campaigning and supporter care.
MAP is currently embedding a new CRM (Microsoft Dynamics 365). While CRM system ownership sits within the DDT team, this role will be central to ensuring the database works for users, data quality remains high, and operational processes are continuously improved.
If you’re an experienced database professional with strong people skills, high attention to detail and a commitment to MAP’s mission and values, we’d love to hear from you.
What is the role about?
Lead on ensuring MAP’s supporter data can be trusted and used with confidence across the organisation. You’ll oversee data quality, imports, integrations, and financial reconciliation, while managing and developing a small team responsible for the smooth running of supporter database operations. Your work will directly support fundraising and campaigning performance, supporter experience, and organisational decision-making.
A full description of responsibilities can be found in the job description.
About You
This role is ideal for an experienced supporter or customer database professional — or a CRM specialist ready to step into a management role — who enjoys combining hands‑on operational work with team leadership. You’ll be detail-focused, collaborative, and confident working across systems, suppliers and teams.
You’ll be motivated by improving processes, strengthening data quality and enabling colleagues to deliver outstanding experiences for supporters, all while contributing to MAP’s work to protect the health and dignity of Palestinians living under occupation and as refugees.
We encourage applications from candidates who may not meet every requirement, but who have the potential to develop into the role.

The Talent Set is delighted to be partnering with the Henry Smith Foundation on the recruitment of a Grants Database and Processes Manager. This is a pivotal role within the Grant Operations Team, responsible for leading the day-to-day management, development, and continuous improvement of the Foundation’s grants database and associated processes.
When grant-making systems work well, funding reaches the organisations that need it, and those organisations can reach the people they help without delay. When they don't, the gaps are felt by real people waiting for real support.
This role plays a critical part in ensuring grant-making activity is supported by robust systems, accurate data, and efficient, user-centred workflows. It combines technical system ownership with strong relationship building, project delivery, and a commitment to learning and improvement.
Key Responsibilities
- Act as system lead for the Foundation’s grants database, ensuring data quality, integrity, and day-to-day reliability
- Design, implement, and continuously improve grant-making processes, tools, and workflows
- Lead system improvements and projects, including testing, configuration, and collaboration with external suppliers
- Provide guidance, training, and hands-on support to colleagues to ensure confident and consistent system use
- Oversee reporting and data outputs to support operational insight and organisational decision making
- Champion best practice in data management, documentation, and compliance across grant operations
Person Specification
- Proven experience managing or administering complex databases and systems
- Track record of designing and improving operational processes and workflows
- Experience delivering training or support to non technical colleagues
- High level of attention to detail, with confidence working with data and reporting
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
- A proactive, solutions focused approach with a strong commitment to learning and continuous improvement
- Alignment with the Henry Smith Foundation’s values and commitment to equity and inclusion

We actively encourage applications from a wide range of backgrounds and are always happy to make reasonable adjustments to ensure a fair recruitment process.

Our approach to candidates using AI in applications
We recognise that technology, including AI tools, can be helpful when preparing job applications, and we welcome the use of tools that support you in presenting your experience clearly. However, it’s important that your application genuinely reflects your own skills, experience, and voice. We therefore recommend reviewing any AI-generated content carefully to ensure accuracy and authenticity.
If you are invited to interview, we’ll want to hear directly from you about your skills and experiences. Any significant differences between your application and how you present yourself in person may negatively impact your application.
