About The Hilden Charitable Fund

The Hilden Charitable Fund is dedicated to funding community groups to work with asylum seekers and refugees, disadvantaged young people, penal affairs, homelessness and small projects in developing countries. The fund is committed to social justice and focusses its funding on grassroots organisations, which make a big difference at the community level.
As we begin the journey into a post-Covid and post-Brexit country the Fund approaches its 60th anniversary and there will undoubtedly be challenges and opportunities to be faced. So, we are now seeking a Director who will work closely with the Trustees to help shape and develop the Fund going forward.

A high impact, hands-on role, with scope for creativity and innovation!
The opportunities for the Director to make a real contribution are manifold, including:

• Working with the Board to develop strategies, plans and ways of working for the future, including supporting the trustees to set grant making policies.

• Engaging with grassroots voluntary organisations in a period of major change.
• Building on our collaboration with the community and voluntary sector, other funders, and networks such as ACF and IVAR, enhancing Hilden’s profile and enabling its involvement in innovation.

About you

The Director could come from a range of relevant backgrounds and be someone who is ready to lead a small organisation for the first time, or who already has experience of being a Director. Whatever your background we should be delighted to hear from you, especially if you have a strong track record of:

• Voluntary sector experience at grassroots level and knowledge and understanding of grant making,
• Managing in a collaborative environment, and
• Relationship building and networking.

We value and respect all the differences that make us who we are, including: age, cultural background, disability and mental health, ethnicity and race, gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, and social background.

The Organisation

Plan International is an independent development and humanitarian organisation that advances children’s rights and equality for girls.

We believe in the power and potential of every child. But this is often suppressed by poverty, violence, exclusion and discrimination. And it’s girls who are most affected.

Working together with children, young people, our supporters and partners, we strive for a just world, tackling the root causes of the challenges facing girls and all vulnerable children.

We support children’s rights from birth until they reach adulthood. And we enable children to prepare for – and respond to – crises and adversity. We drive changes in practice and policy at local, national and global levels using our reach, experience and knowledge.

We have been building powerful partnerships for children for over 80 years, and are now active in more than 70 countries.

The Vision

Plan International’s global strategy applies a full spectrum approach where Disaster Risk Management (DRM) is an integral part of everything the organisation does with and for children and girls, especially in fragile settings. 

Our ambition is to become a global leader and the NGO partner of choice for promoting gender equality and protecting girls’ rights in disaster and conflict settings, working at the nexus of development and humanitarian efforts.

While our emergency response work is driven by the humanitarian imperative and principles, as a global organisation Plan International has invested in three priority focus areas; Child Protection in Emergency (CPIE), Education in Emergency (EIE) and Youth Economic Empowerment in Emergency (YEEIE). 

Plan International has developed a systematic approach to integrating Disaster Risk Reduction and Climate Change Adaptation into our Country Strategies and promoting a resilience approach to our programmes. Our ambition is to continue to grow the DRM portfolio in this area.

As an organisation we place great importance on contributing to the work and collective learning, strengthened coordination and quality of work in the sector and increasingly take on inter-agency leadership roles within our areas of expertise at a country and global level.

In the last financial year Plan International responded to 171 emergencies of differing scales and significance across 55 countries with a focus on Child Protection and Education in Emergencies programming.

• 61,258,951 girls, boys, women and men were reached through this work in FY20
• Spending relating to disaster risk management totalled €175 million in FY20
• Plan International partnered with 27,600 community organisations, over 3,400 NGO’s and 934 corporate and private sector institutions.

The Opportunity

The Global Humanitarian Director - Preparedness & Response (also known as Disaster Risk Management (DRM) within Plan International) will lead in setting the overall direction in this area, mobilising the different parts of Plan International and leading the implementation of the Global DRM vision across Global Hub, Regional Hubs, Country Offices, and National Organisations.

You will position Plan International as a global leader and NGO partner of choice for promoting gender equality and protecting girls’ rights in disaster and conflict settings, continuously evaluating and increasing the impact of our work.

You will lead a high performing, motivated and skilled team to deliver and support the achievement of the Global DRM vision, acting as a role model to drive positive culture change across Plan International and consciously embracing and personifying our values-based leadership framework underpinned by feminist principles.  

About You

With proven experience in humanitarian programming and in exercising visionary and strategic leadership in aspects of large, geographically dispersed, culturally diverse, complex international organisations you will have significant experience of managing large scale humanitarian response operations in different and complex contexts.

Strong inter-personal skills in stakeholder management, networking, negotiation, diplomacy and communication with the ability to work empathetically and effectively will be imperative as is a track record of developing and leading effective and motivated teams, including distance management and delivering business planning, financial management, improvement programmes in line with organisational objectives.

Do you want to make this a reality for people with learning disabilities, and create new possibilities for our society?

L’Arche in the UK is part of a worldwide federation of people with and without learning disabilities sharing life together. We build Communities with people with learning disabilities rather than for them. We nourish everyone’s emotional and spiritual lives as well as providing for their basic needs.

We want to deepen our impact by increasing fundraising for unrestricted and revenue projects, alongside capital projects. We want to shift public perceptions.

WASTEAID – PARTNERSHIPS AND ENGAGEMENT MANAGER

About WasteAid

The Challenge

90% of waste in low-income countries is openly dumped or burned, posing a threat to both people and planet.

The Vision

Our vision is a world in which waste causes no harm, and where people in poverty are empowered to recover its value.

At WasteAid, we work with communities and policy makers in low and middle-income countries to implement waste management and recycling programmes. Our work improves the livelihoods of some of the poorest and most marginalised, promotes circular economy innovation and contributes to a cleaner and healthier future for all.

Waste management is an often neglected element of the international development agenda yet the consequences of poor waste management are severe, affecting both people and planet. Health consequences include increased respiratory illnesses due to burning waste, higher levels of insect borne illnesses due to open dumping, greater prevalence of gastro-intestinal problems and other illnesses due to blocked and polluted waterways. In the era of COVID 19, effective disposal of face masks and of potentially contaminated materials adds an extra layer of complexity for countries already struggling to dispose of their waste safely. It is the poorest that bear the heaviest disease burden and for those living in extreme poverty, this can lead to increased mortality. The environmental consequences of poor waste management are no less severe, burning waste contributes to the climate crisis through greenhouse gases, contaminated soil and waterways put ecosystems at risk and the dirt and odour from unmanaged waste degrades the general environment.

What we do

We work with the most vulnerable and marginalised in target communities to provide waste management and recycling training and livelihood opportunities.

We support innovation and deliver appropriate systems for first-step resource management to maximise recovery and reuse of waste materials

We foster sustainable social enterprises, social programmes with private sector companies, and local and global networks.

We undertake evidence-based advocacy to create an enabling environment for safe, sustainable waste management.

WasteAid is currently active in 8 countries throughout Africa and Asia.

Person Specification

We are looking to recruit a dynamic, motivated, entrepreneurial, and experienced professional to develop our income generation strategy across a variety of income streams.

To be successful you will have a proven experience in income generation with good influencing skills, the confidence to implement and develop fundraising strategies, be able to demonstrate excellent stewardship, have a successful track record of building successful relationships and having a collaborative nature.

As Partnerships and Engagement Manager you will be responsible for managing key business partnerships, maximising all potential income streams and seeking new opportunities to work with corporates, trusts and foundations and further develop individual giving.  You will devise creative and innovative business development strategies including, fundraising campaigns with partners, liaising with corporate contacts and building and developing relationships with key stakeholders.  You will monitor income, expenditure and resources, making sure that each partnership meets and exceeds income and non-financial targets.

In addition, you will:

• Horizon scan for business development opportunities across a range of funders.
• Prepare contractual agreements and ensure that these are fully adhered to.
• Develop detailed, tailored plans that maximise income in the short term and secure long-term growth
• Effectively solve problems and manage risk to ensure achievement of targets
• Prepare presentations, proposals, plans and reports as necessary.

To be successful you will have excellent verbal and written communication skills with significant experience in fundraising and working on multi-layered or global NGO-corporate partnerships. You will have a commercial outlook based on experience in managing long term partnerships, with a track record of personally delivering to defined goals.

Additionally, you will have:

• A good working knowledge of MS Word, Excel and ability to use databases for recording and reporting
• Excellent project management, planning and prioritising skills to manage a varied and pressurised workload while focusing on the "big picture"
• A good understanding of commercial and financial principles to improve performance
