What we do

Working in partnership with Governments, the SCI Foundation supports and facilitates public health programmes that reduce the impact of preventable diseases like schistosomiasis and soil-transmitted helminthiasis.

We provide technical and financial support to Ministries of Health, in line with their own strategies and plans, to enhance sustainability and strengthen health systems within countries affected by these diseases. We work to scale up their government-implemented deworming programs by providing advisory support and conducting research and analysis on the outcomes.

To date, our team has supported up to 60% of all global schistosomiasis treatments being delivered annually and we are broadening our reach to coordinate with health programmes for other preventable diseases, as well as supporting  disease prevention measures such as water, sanitation and hygiene and the management of the impacts of these diseases on individuals.

Who we are

Our vision is a world free of preventable disease, in which everyone everywhere can reach their full potential. We were founded in 2002 with a £20m grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and started life at Imperial College London as the Schistosomiasis Control Initiative. Consistently ranked globally as one of the most cost-effective non-profit initiatives, we have received significant funding since our inception including from the UK Department of International Development, USAID and philanthropic investors.

In 2019 we became an independent organisation, and the SCI Foundation continues to work across multiple sectors in numerous countries in Sub-Saharan Africa to deliver effective and robust health programmes that have a lasting impact.

Who we are looking for

We are looking for an exceptional Team Co-ordinator to join our friendly and dynamic team to support the Operations function of the SCI Foundation. As Team Co-ordinator, you will work closely with the Operational Excellence Manager in the creation, management and on-going development of tools and processes to ensure the efficient operation of all SCI-supported country programmes. You will also support the Chief Executive and Director of Finance & Operations with administrative duties.

Reporting to the Director of Finance & Operations, the Team Co-ordinator will liaise with the Finance and Operations team and facilitate the work of the Operations team on a day-to-day basis ensuring accuracy in the completion of all document management processes.

In addition, the Team Co-ordinator will be responsible for the management of office facilities, systems management, general and HR administration duties in addition to meeting and greeting guests.

You will have a minimum of 5 years’ experience of working in a similar role and be highly competent in the use of IT systems such as Microsoft Office and databases. Additionally, you will have excellent administrative skills with the ability to identify inefficiencies in administrative processes and suggest and implement improvements. You must possess an undergraduate degree or relevant vocational qualification and have excellent English language skills. An enthusiastic approach to the role is essential coupled with a dynamic and proactive attitude to work with the ability to champion change.

What it’s like to work at the SCI Foundation

We’re a team of people passionate about creating a world free of preventable disease. Everyone that works at the SCI Foundation, as well as our partners and supporters, shares these same values and beliefs:

• Equality: We are a small and dynamic team in which every staff member’s contribution is crucial and equally valued
• Inclusion: We are working towards a fairer world where no-one is left behind.

Development Director, Live Music Now

Salary – Up to £50K

Location - Central London

Full time, permanent

Engagement with live music has been shown to bring measurable health, social and educational benefits and this is particularly the case for older people living with dementia or loneliness, as well as children with special educational needs and disabilities. Our client, Live Music Now, makes an enormous impact on the lives of vulnerable children and adults, throughout the UK, by delivering around 3,500 participatory performances and specialist workshops each year to over 120,000 people, through its musicians who are young professionals at the start of their career.

Since its creation in 1977, by Yehudi Menuhin and Sir Ian Stoutzker, the charity has reached over 2.5 million people. As the leading organisation in this field, Live Music Now works regularly at hundreds of schools and care homes each year. However, many vulnerable children and older people still cannot access the transformative benefits of live music. The charity’s vision is to scale up its activities, working with partner organisations, teachers and carers to create long-term sustainable programmes throughout the UK.  To achieve this, the Board and Executive Director of LMN are putting in place a step change in its fundraising strategy, alongside a profile-raising strategy.

A highly accomplished Development Director is therefore sought to help lead this fundraising strategy. Ideally, the successful candidate will:

• Bring strategic knowledge of raising funds through multiple income streams including major donors, individual giving, legacies and corporate sponsorship
• Demonstrate their expertise in developing sustainable partnerships
• Understand the needs of working with vulnerable adults and children in the arts, health, care or education sectors
• Possess excellent personal and public presentation skills
• At all times display empathy, with dynamism, in their internal and external relationships

This exciting and essential new role is a key appointment for the charity, so culture fit is as important as the skills required.  A charity fundraising background is not essential although strong commercial acumen, with a proven track record of successful income generation, is required. As an individual, you will believe deeply in the impact that LMN’s work can make to the wellbeing of disadvantaged people and be able to convey this in ways that relate to the interests and motivations of potential donors. It is important that the new Development Director is comfortable talking to people from different backgrounds and is confident in their ability to ‘tell the story’ in an engaging and compelling way.

To apply for this exceptional opportunity, and to request an application pack, please send your CV and Supporting statement to Jenny Warner, Managing Director, Charisma Recruitment Ltd quoting reference JO2761.

Interview date: 24 June 2020
