As Learning and Networks Manager, you will play a central role in engaging funders, partners, and stakeholders, and delivering learning that helps shape future practice across Funders Together and the wider funding ecosystem.
This is an exciting point to join the organisation as we invest further in learning and our networks as a core part of our mission. Building on strong existing networks and well-established learning programmes, you will help strengthen and evolve our work for the future.

So who are we?
Funders Together is a charity focused on improving how funding supports communities and civil society to positively shape the world.
Our work centres on strengthening the effectiveness, fairness and impact of funding systems by championing practice rooted in equity, trust and collaboration. We work across the funding ecosystem, with partners in the public, private and third sectors, to support organisations to learn together, share insight and develop approaches that lead to stronger outcomes for communities. We bring together a growing family of initiatives and organisations working across the funding landscape.
Across our work, Funders Together connects funders, supports collaborative funding initiatives, develops insights informed by shared data, and creates space for mutual learning and joint action.

They will be able to create a positive learning culture, and confidently design learning spaces and networks which can bring an audience together over different learning goals.

They will enjoy working in a dynamic environment where priorities evolve and where good systems and coordination help ensure activity is delivered effectively.
The successful candidate will be comfortable working as part of a small and agile team, taking initiative in their work and contributing to continuous improvement in how we design and deliver learning across Funders Together.
A strong commitment to collaboration, equity, diversity and systemic change is essential, alongside a shared belief in the value of diverse lived experience in strengthening our work and impact.

We believe that a staff culture rooted in inclusion, equity and wellbeing helps create a stronger, healthier and more productive team.

The Youth Endowment Fund
Evaluation Manager
Reports to: Senior Evaluation Manager
Salary: £44,100
Contract: 24 months full-time (Fixed Term Contract).
Location: Central London, Hybrid*
Closing date: 5pm on Monday 22nd June
Interview dates: Week commencing Monday 6th July
About the Youth Endowment Fund
We’re here to prevent children and young people becoming involved in violence. We do this by finding out what works and building a movement to put this knowledge into practice.
All of us will experience violence at some point in our lives. For many children, it is a daily reality. Each year, tens of children are killed, hundreds are hospitalised, 1 in 5 teenage children are victims and the majority admit to feeling afraid of violence. It scares them when they travel home from school, prevents them from going out and makes the most vulnerable feel like they don’t matter. It is taking lives, traumatising families and dividing communities. It robs potential, progress and hope. But it doesn’t have to be this way.
The Youth Endowment Fund exists to try and permanently change things. To succeed, we must build an exceptional body of knowledge about violence affecting young people and how we reduce it. This knowledge has to be both rigorous and highly relevant to those making decisions about how to support vulnerable young people. We need to find out what works and what doesn’t through evidence synthesis, data analysis and qualitative research into children’s lives. We need to convert this into highly accessible content on what works, how delivery organisations need to change their practice and how the systems they operate in need to be reformed. We then need to work with the right people that can make change happen, across systems, policies and practice, to have a real impact on reducing violence affecting children’s lives.
The evaluation team designs and implements the processes which assess the evidence for the fund’s various funding rounds. The team is also responsible for assessing, appointing, monitoring and the quality assurance of complex and rigorous impact evaluations from experts in the field.
As an integral member of our evaluation team, you will be part of making sure we make the best decisions about what we fund, design and execute the evaluations to learn from it about what works to prevent youth violence.
Key Responsibilities
The core of your job is to ensure that we commission and deliver high-quality evaluations so that we can find out the very best ways to prevent young people and children from becoming involved in violence.
As an Evaluation Manager, you will:
Support the evaluation team to design and implement the processes for assessing the quality of evidence underpinning applications organisations make for funding.
Provide recommendations on which applications should be approved for funding based on your assessment.
Choose the best evaluation partner for each project.
Lead the development of the evaluation design with grantees and evaluators.
Review regular monitoring reports from evaluators and provide approval for payments, making sure their milestones are effectively achieved, and the work stays on budget.
Serve as the main point of contact for the evaluation partner, providing a rigorous review and feedback on the report and ensuring that it is an accurate reflection of the learnings from the project.
Support the evaluation team in the development of the principles and protocols we need to deliver robust and respected evaluations.
About you
You’re this sort of person who is:
Committed to preventing young people and children from becoming involved in violence: You’re passionate about the impact of prevention and early intervention. You don't want your days to pass without making a difference.
Experienced in evaluation: You have a strong knowledge and technical expertise in evaluation methodologies, including the ability to critically appraise the design of randomised control trials and related approaches.
Really know what makes great research and quality evidence: You can design and draft high-quality research proposals, including the sample, measurement and analysis. You’re confident in assessing the quality of evidence that underpins interventions and can guide decisions on grant applications.
An excellent communicator: You can produce technical documents that accurately report methodological and statistical information. You will combine this with experience of communicating complex evidence and analysis in a simple and accessible format to non-experts.
Highly organised and likes working in a team: You have excellent project and time management skills with the ability to deliver high-quality work in a fast-paced environment. You’re a valuable addition to any team by supporting others and working collaboratively. You’re flexible and able to work on your own initiative.
Committed to equality, diversity and inclusion: You believe and act in a way that celebrates and encourages a range of experiences, views and values.
You may have, but they are not essential:
Good knowledge and understanding of crime, serious or other relevant areas. This could include areas such as such as RSHE and harmful relationship behaviours, child development, parenting or children’s mental health from fields such as psychology, neuroscience or education research.
Experience of commissioning evaluation or designing your own research: This includes managing research and analysis from external contractors. Experience designing and carrying out your own research would be an asset, as would experience in the ethical review process.
Great quantitative analysis skills: This includes experience using advanced analytical software such as R, Stata or SPSS
Knowledge and understanding of intervention and prevention science
Knowledge and experience of evidence synthesis: You know the different approaches and have carried out your own evidence synthesis projects.
While it’s not a criterion, we’re especially interested to hear from applicants who have experienced youth violence.
It’s also important to us that the people we hire do not discriminate. We believe in being inclusive and giving everyone an equal chance to succeed. Applications are welcome from all regardless of age, sex, gender identity, disability, marriage or civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, religion or belief, race, sexual orientation, transgender status or social economic background.
Hybrid Working Details

Bringing together our Community Education & Training provision and Employment & Careers services, the role is responsible for ensuring a cohesive offer that supports hundreds of individuals each year from community learning through to work.

The National Lottery Community Fund – Climate Action Fund Decision Panel Appointments
Climate Action Fund- Food Systems - Expert Panel Member Role Specification
Term of Appointment: Three Years
Time Commitment - 9 Days per year
The National Lottery Community Fund (The Fund) wishes to recruit an external member for the Climate Action Fund Decision Panel. The Chair of the UK Funding Committee (UKFC) accordingly invites applications for the position of external member of The National Lottery Community Fund’s Climate Action Fund Decision Panel.
Background
The Fund is the largest funder of community activity in the UK. It launched the Climate Action Fund in 2019 as a long-term commitment to support communities across the UK to act on climate change and involve more people in positive environmental action. Since its launch the Climate Action Fund has awarded over £182m to communities across the UK. This includes over 175 larger projects, predominantly delivered through partnership approaches and over 440 small grants that were delivered through Together for Our Planet, a funding programme in support of COP26. The programme has always had a test and learn ethos and each strand of funding has built on learning to date.
In January 2026 the Climate Action Fund launched a new strand of funding - Food Systems, focusing on strengthening food systems across the UK, while reducing food insecurity for people and communities, without harming the planet. It will achieve this through supporting partnerships that can deliver long term solutions and transformational systems change. Funding will enable large and long term interventions with the capacity and time to deliver progress against their intended aims and ambitions. We will support agroecological approaches which work with nature to create resilient, sustainable and equitable food systems. Projects can apply for a minimum of £2.5 million over three years, and we expect to fund up to ten projects in the first year. More information about funding aims and criteria can be found in Annex A (attached).
Through the Climate Action Fund we support projects based in all four countries of the UK and a combination of place based, cross country, regional, national and UK wide.
Role Specification
The Climate Action Fund is seeking a subject matter expert in food systems, who will complement our existing panel and support our work across the UK. They will have an understanding of the holistic aims we seek to address in supporting long term solutions that will have benefits for both climate, environment and nature, and to people and communities.
The Climate Action Fund Decision Panel has delegated authority from the UK Funding Committee (UKFC) to make funding decisions on Climate Action Fund Programmes.
The purpose of the Climate Action Fund Decision Panel is to make funding decisions, review the performance of the Climate Action Fund portfolio, and make recommendations where appropriate to UKFC. Funding decisions shall be taken in the context of the UKFC Delegation and shall undertake its duties within the framework of overall National Lottery Community Fund policy and procedures.
