We’re here for Londoners wherever they are on their journey. We start with trust, building relationships that help people feel safe, supported, and ready to move forward. Every day, we put people first in everything we do, challenging injustice and barriers that keep people from the safety, stability and opportunity they deserve. We stand alongside people as they rebuild and shape a future that feels their own. 

Joining Single Homeless Project means joining a team that’s bold, compassionate and determined to do better for the people we support and for each other. You’ll work alongside colleagues with lived experience, in a space that’s trans-inclusive, disability-friendly, and actively striving to be anti-oppressive and equitable.

About you

We’re looking for a motivated individual with strong knowledge of acquisition and retention marketing, fundraising legislation, sector policy and finance processes.

You can lead, coach and motivate a small high-performing Operations team, developing strategies that align with our organisational goals. Your collaborative approach enables you to communicate complex ideas clearly, coordinate multiple stakeholders, and influence outcomes.

As an experienced operational manager, your project management skills include scoping, design, delivery and evaluation, with the ability to analyse data to drive continuous improvement. You’ll be comfortable using relationship and financial management systems and have a proven track record of building and maintaining relationships with stakeholders at all levels.

You thrive when managing multiple projects, setting priorities and using your judgement to achieve results.

If you have initiative, resilience and a growth mindset - someone committed to targets, who acts proactively and embraces innovation – we encourage you to apply.

Working arrangements

This is a fixed term contract until November 2026, covering an internal secondment. Start date is as soon as possible.

Job Summary

The Philanthropy Manager will develop a philanthropy strategy, building on the partnerships and resources already in place. You will develop a pipeline backed up by robust prospect research (some administrative assistance will be provided), and instigate a cultivation and stewardship programme, typically adopting a staged approach to major asks.

You will be accountable for the acquisition, development, and stewardship of high value supporters for CUF, both individual philanthropists and non-statutory grant-making bodies. You will develop and strengthen relationships with existing donors, as well as identifying warm prospects currently not supporting CUF financially.
