Job description

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

What’s on Offer
Salary: £45,500 per annum
Hours: Full time (35 hours per week)
Contract: Permanent
Location: London – Typically one day per week with variation (core days: Tues & Wed) in the King’s Cross office

How to Apply
To apply, please submit your CV demonstrating your suitability for this role by clicking the 'apply now' button (please do not apply via email). We aim to get back to all successful candidates within 48 working hours.

Commitment to Diversity
The Talent Set are committed to diverse and inclusive recruitment practices, ensuring equal opportunities for all applicants regardless of race, religion or belief, sex, sexual orientation, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, disability, or age. We actively encourage applications from a wide range of backgrounds and are always happy to make reasonable adjustments to ensure a fair recruitment process.

Requesting reasonable adjustments
We are committed to creating an inclusive recruitment process. If you require any reasonable adjustments to support you during the application or interview stages, please let us know. You can share your needs at any point in the process. Adjustments can be tailored to suit both physical and mental health needs. Our team will work with you to ensure you have what you need to perform at your best.

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.
