In recent years, our fundraising potential has grown significantly – with new partnerships, global awards, and high-profile fundraising campaigns enabling our projects to expand and our impact to deepen.

• Work with the Fundraising & Events Manager to assess the future viability of these events and how they may integrate with or exit from the broader fundraising strategy. 
• Maintain key relationships with mosque and school partners to preserve goodwill and support transitional planning. 

Team Leadership 

• Line manage the Fundraising & Events Manager, providing coaching, strategic direction, and performance support. 
• Ensure the team structure remains fit for purpose as event formats, income goals, and capacity evolve.

You’ll advocate for the importance of evaluation and work to improve the understanding of ‘what works’ for communities in relation to our missions.

In addition to evaluation expertise, strong stakeholder management skills are critical: enabling you to get the best from contracts we procure, and work with internal funding staff who are not evaluation specialists. You'll effectively communicate evaluation findings to a variety of audiences, internally and externally. And, you'll have a strong commitment to professional development, staying up-to-date with best practice in evaluation design and delivery. You’ll be part of a team of evaluation experts, providing a brilliant opportunity for peer-to-peer learning.

We are looking for someone with a passion for understanding the difference that the voluntary and community sector makes and using that evidence to improve practice. You will be motivated by helping ensure National Lottery funding makes the greatest difference for communities across the UK.

Location: We have a hybrid approach to working, work pattern and location will be agreed with the successful candidate. The role can be based at any of our UK offices, these are Belfast, Birmingham, Cardiff, Exeter, Glasgow, Leeds, London, Manchester, Newcastle and Newtown.
