Engineering matters. It underpins our daily lives, plays a critical role in addressing major societal challenges and helps ensure our readiness for the future, from providing a sustainable supply of food, water and clean energy, to advancing healthcare, and keeping us safe and secure. As the UK’s national Academy for engineering and technology we bring together the most talented and successful engineers to promote excellence in engineering for the benefit of society.
Our vision is of an inclusive engineering profession that inspires, attracts and retains people from diverse backgrounds. UK engineering is facing serious skills shortages and addressing diversity and inclusion will not only help bridge this gap, it will also help drive innovation and creativity and ensure that those who design and build the world around us are more reflective of wider society.
We are looking for a Senior Manager to lead and develop our diversity and inclusion strand of work with employers. Working closely with our Head of Diversity and Inclusion, you will engage employers across the engineering and technology sectors (including small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs)), leading the delivery of high-quality, innovative programmes and events, and forge productive partnerships with other organisations, scientific bodies and government. In short, we will look to you to influence engineering employment practices to be inclusive of potential and actual engineers from all backgrounds – so we need someone exceptional.
Experienced in delivering cultural change or organisational development programmes, you will be well versed in diversity and inclusion related change agenda and passionate about making a difference. You will bring an innovative mindset, proven ability to manage complex projects and significant budgets, and real flair for presenting information and arguments in a credible and convincing manner. Finally, a background in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) would be useful, as would experience engaging with SMEs on diversity and inclusion, but it’s your ability to build relationships and use your initiative and make things happen that will matter most.
In return, we offer a fantastic package of benefits including a non-contributory pension scheme, BUPA cash plan, private medical insurance, subsidised restaurant, regular social activities, health and wellbeing programmes, as well as significant investment into your personal and professional development.
You will be based primarily at our office in central London, but some travel will be required to engage with employers and networks across the UK. We support flexible working and would be happy to discuss working patterns with candidates.

Trust and Foundations Manager
New City College recruitment pack
Role overview
Job title Trust and Foundations Manager
Salary Starting at £38,900
Location Poplar High St, Poplar, London E14 0AF
Reports to Senior Projects Manager
Work closely with Senior management team; Poplar campus redevelopment team; Finance
Type of position Full-time, permanent
Introduction to New City College
New City College (NCC) is the fourth largest further education college in England. It has been formed through five mergers: the merger between Tower Hamlets College and Hackney Community College in August 2016 and subsequent mergers with Redbridge College in April 2017, Epping Forest College in August 2018 and the mergers with Havering College of Further and Higher Education and Havering Sixth Form College in August 2019.
NCC currently has over 25,000 students with a small provision of 14-15 education, a large cohort of 16-18 students and a significant number of adult students. It offers over a 100 courses from A Levels, BTECs and ESOL to vocational subjects, such as business, IT, performing arts, trade skills and catering as well as pre-University courses. Throughout its intensive period of growth, NCC has maintained a focus on students and teaching and learning.
NCC is based in east London and has 10 sites in five local authorities: Tower Hamlets, Hackney, Redbridge, Epping Forest and Havering. The College continues to maintain its strong local presence, serving the needs of its local communities.
Join an ambitious and exciting redevelopment project
The College has an ambitious plan to redevelop its campus in Poplar. Located on Poplar High Street, right next to Poplar DLR station and within 200m of Canary Wharf and Crossrail, the current campus is formed of an amalgam of buildings from different areas. The oldest part is a 1894 Poplar library building and it includes a grade II listed Naval College from 1906. Newer parts of the building are from 1990 and 2006. The current building is inefficient and it is no longer future proofed to accommodate education and training provision for decades to come.
As such, the College is looking to redevelop the new campus into a state-of-the-art education facility which provides a flexible learning environment, is aligned with industry requirements, is green, accessible and sustainable and celebrates the heritage of the local area and the Naval College. The new campus will be funded through an enabling development, built on the same site as the new campus. There is also an opportunity to enhance the public realm around the new development, including invigorating Poplar High Street.
Could this be the future campus in Poplar?
As part of the early planning for the redevelopment, NCC has worked with fundraising consultancy More Partnership to assess the overall potential to seek philanthropic support for aspects of the redevelopment, including specific subject areas and student groups. From this, it is clear that there is considerable scope to engage Trusts and Foundations with the project, and that resulting impact NCC has on the lives of young people in this part of London.
As a result, NCC now wishes to appoint a Trusts and Foundations Manager to lead this work, and in so doing, to put in place a long-term and sustainable grant-focused fundraising programme.

Two exciting opportunities to work with a dynamic national charity based in Stratford:
For over 30 years School-Home Support has been working with disadvantaged children, young people and families who are struggling with their education due to a wide range of complex issues. SHS gets children and young people back into school ready to learn, whatever it takes. Our work breaks down barriers to learning such as poverty, domestic violence and poor housing. We are a small dynamic charity with proven impact. During the last year we have expanded our services into areas of the UK where there are high levels of need.
Due to internal promotions in the fundraising team we are now recruiting for two posts. Both posts are based in the SHS Central Office in Stratford, a 10 minutes walk from the station and well served with both underground and mainline trains, including Stratford International, Jubilee and Central line tubes, Overground and DLR.
Fundraising Assistant - 37.5 hours a week, full time based in Stratford

We are all totally passionate about the work SHS does, so first and foremost we are looking for people who share our commitment to educational equality. The Fundraising Team has a high profile within SHS as we rely increasingly on voluntary income to ensure we reach vulnerable children. The team shares responsibility for the overall fundraising target. We are collaborative and support each other; so a strong team ethic is a must. The Stratford office staff team is also small with around 10-12 people (not including the fundraising team). There will be opportunity to engage directly with staff running services, our CEO and colleagues working directly with children and families, so you will learn a lot about our work and feel close to it. This is an exciting opportunity for the right candidates to develop and learn.

We are looking for someone who is keen to develop their skills in all aspects of Trust fundraising, including prospect research, bid writing, report compilation and account management. You will need to have very high quality writing skills, using every opportunity to showcase your creativity and flair for making a strong case for support.
