27 Grants administrative officer jobs

Use your organisational & communication skills to have an impact on health in Surrey & Sussex.

We are looking for someone highly organised, with great written and interpersonal communication skills to administer how we spend donated money, and to show people the impact of their donations.

You could be an experienced professional from charities or another sector, or someone who can demonstrate the skills we need (perhaps from voluntary experience), who is looking for a first role following university/education.

As our Grantmaking & Communications Officer, you will receive and track applications to the charity for funding through our approval process. You will submit completed applications to our committees for review, and use our CRM system to track them, liaising with successful and unsuccessful funding applicants to help ensure that funded projects are delivered in a timely manner.

The second part of the role is showing people how donations help. This will range from putting a ‘Funded by Surrey & Sussex Healthcare Charity’ sticker on (or next to) everything we have funded, through to creating donor walls in the hospitals, and transforming our presence on social media.

You will track down everything the charity has funded and help create compelling content to share through a range of channels. This will involve taking photos or simple videos of projects/items funded by the charity, gathering quotes from staff or patients who have benefitted, and creating video content for use online. We want to bring to life the impact which donations have.

If you’re a natural at social media and chatting to hospital staff or patients, you will have the opportunity to create and present social media content – for example video interviews with people who have seen the impact of charity funding. 

We want to get brilliant at showing people exactly how their donations help, because it inspires other people to want to help too. This role is key to that ambition.

So if you are

· Highly organised - to track multiple projects through to successful completion using IT systems

· Tenacious - we want to set you to work finding and gathering photos & quotes for everything we’ve funded in recent years

· With great communication skills and a flair for social media….

We would love to hear from you.

We are looking for someone brilliant for this essential role. The role offers a great opportunity be a key part of an innovative small charity having a big impact for people in Surrey & Sussex when they need it most, whilst also contributing to the success of a major NHS organisation.
