About The Harrow Club
The Harrow Club is a longstanding and highly respected youth charity working at the heart of some of West London's most disadvantaged communities. For more than 140 years, the organisation has championed local young people, providing universal youth clubs alongside targeted specialist support for those aged 10-21 who need it most.

Each week, the organisation works with up to 500 young people across six youth club sites and a wide range of targeted interventions spanning education, wellbeing, employability and positive life choices. Their model is rooted in trusted relationships, high-quality programmes, and early intervention - helping young people grow in confidence, overcome disadvantage, and move toward a positive future.

About the Role
This is a strategic and hands-on opportunity to lead and shape The Harrow Club's fundraising and communications activity. You'll drive sustainable income growth, raise the charity's profile, and ensure its story is told with clarity, conviction and heart.
This role will suit someone with ambition, emotional intelligence and a strong sense of purpose - someone excited by the chance to build something meaningful and see their work directly translate into better outcomes for young people.

"We are looking for someone with energy, credibility, and purpose. Someone who is motivated by impact, comfortable with responsibility, and excited by the opportunity to build something that really matters. If you want your work to translate directly into better outcomes for young people and families, I would strongly encourage you to apply.

I look forward to hearing from you." Garnet Johnson, CEO

As Head of Fundraising & Communications, you will:

• Lead the development of a cross-organisational fundraising strategy.
• Build a high-performing fundraising and communications function.
• Position The Harrow Club as a credible, high-impact partner.
• Embed excellent stewardship, strong data practice and compliance.

In this role, you'll be the driving force behind an ambitious fundraising programme, shaping a bold strategy, unlocking new income streams, and building a diverse, future-proof pipeline. You'll lead on high-value bids and forge relationships with trusts, foundations, corporates and major donors, creating compelling propositions that inspire long-term support. You will elevate the charity's profile through impactful campaigns, events and content that bring the Harrow Club's mission to life.

About you
We're looking for a values-driven fundraiser with a strong track record of securing income across trusts, corporates, major donors and/or foundations. A skilled communicator with excellent writing and relationship-building abilities, you're confident managing multiple projects and leading people to do their best work. You're organised, proactive and committed to the mission of The Harrow Club. Experience in communications, digital engagement, campaigns, or knowledge of GDPR and fundraising regulation would be a bonus.

Charity People is a forward thinking, inclusive organisation that actively and deliberately promotes equity, diversity and inclusion. We know organisations thrive when inclusion is at the forefront. We evidence our commitment by matching charity needs with the skills and experience of candidates irrespective of background e.g. age, disability (including hidden disabilities), gender, gender identity or gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, or sexual orientation. We do this because we believe that greater diversity leads to greater results for the charities we work with.

Care workers give everything to the people they support. When life gets hard, The Care Workers' Charity is there for them - providing grants, mental health support, and a community that has their back.

We're a small, passionate team and we're growing. We're looking for a Marketing and Events Officer who's creative, organised, and ready to make their work mean something.

This is a genuinely varied role. One day you might be crafting a social media campaign, the next you're coordinating our presence at a national sector conference. You'll create content, manage our channels, write newsletters and press releases, produce video case studies, and help run events that raise both awareness and funds. You'll work closely with our Marketing and Events Manager and have real ownership over your work.

We're not looking for someone who just wants to tick boxes. We want someone who's curious, takes initiative, and cares about doing things well. Experience in the charity sector is helpful but not essential - what matters more is that you bring solid digital and content skills, a head for logistics, and genuine enthusiasm for the cause.

In return, you'll get a home-based role with flexible working, 33 days annual leave including bank holidays, a working from home allowance, and access to an Employee Assistance Programme. Most importantly, you'll be part of a team that genuinely cares about what it does.

About Us
Head and neck cancer is one of the fastest-growing cancers in the UK, now affecting around 17,000 people each year. Oracle Head & Neck Cancer UK is a mission-driven national charity dedicated to improving head and neck cancer patient quality of life and outcomes in the UK through support of key programmes, raising awareness and addressing growing healthcare inequalities.  We fund groundbreaking research that changes lives and we collaborate across the sector to maximise impact for patients.

The role

We’re seeking a strategic, hands-on Fundraising Manager with broad experience across all income streams but may consider either trusts or corporate fundraising as a speciality. We need someone energetic, committed and with a flexible approach who will be willing to contribute to everything that our small charity has to offer.

Oracle Head & Neck Cancer UK is currently moving towards a new direction and we have a unique and exciting opportunity to develop an organisation that creates maximum impact for head and neck cancer patients and their families. This is your chance to be part of a small charity with big ambition.

What We Offer

· Competitive salary.

· Remote working.

· Professional development and mentorship.

· Meaningful work with measurable impact and a collaborative team environment.

Are you a strategic leader who can bring clarity, direction and momentum during periods of change?

Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity is looking for a Head of Impact and Grant Communications to lead a critical function during an important transition year for the organisation. This up to 12-month maternity cover role will provide leadership and continuity as we begin delivering against our new organisational strategy—helping ensure our teams, priorities and ways of working remain aligned, focused and effective.

This is a senior leadership role that sits at the heart of how the charity understands, measures and communicates its impact. Working across impact measurement, evaluation and grant communications, you’ll help shape how we tell the story of the difference our funding makes for seriously ill children and their families—using evidence, insight and storytelling to support strategic decision-making, fundraising and organisational priorities.
 

We’re looking for someone who can confidently lead through complexity and change: someone who brings strong judgement, emotional intelligence and the ability to create clarity in evolving environments. This role requires a collaborative and supportive leader who can empower specialist teams, build strong relationships across the organisation and maintain momentum across a broad and varied portfolio of work.
 

You do not need to be a deep technical specialist across every area of impact measurement or grant communications. What matters most is your ability to lead high-performing teams, connect people around shared goals and ensure important work continues to move forward with confidence and focus.
 

This is a unique opportunity to help shape the foundations of a new strategic chapter for GOSH Charity—supporting work that ultimately helps give seriously ill children the best chance, and the best childhood, possible.
 

Salary
 

The salary for this role is £77,919 per annum and we operate a hybrid working policy of a minimum of 2 days per week in the office.

In line with our EDI strategy and Total Reward policy, we calculate our salaries based on benchmarking data across the charity sector. To ensure fairness for existing staff and new joiners, we do not offer salaries above the advertised rate.
 

Note – this position is up to a 12 month fixed term contract.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the Impact and Grant Communications function during a year of strategic transition, ensuring teams remain focused, supported and aligned around organisational priorities.
• Provide leadership and oversight across impact measurement, evaluation and grant communications activity, ensuring high-quality delivery across the department.
• Support the development of strong foundations for the first year of the charity’s new strategy, helping shape processes, priorities and ways of working alongside the senior leadership team.
• Oversee how the charity measures, evaluates and communicates impact, ensuring evidence and insight are used effectively to inform decision-making and storytelling.
• Lead and support teams responsible for communicating the impact of grant funding across fundraising, communications and external audiences.
• Build strong relationships with senior colleagues, researchers, hospital partners, Trustees and external stakeholders, acting as a trusted and collaborative partner.
• Support strategic communications activity linked to major organisational priorities, including high-value funding cases, reporting and thought leadership.
• Use insight, evidence and evaluation to help identify opportunities, strengthen strategic thinking and support continuous improvement across the organisation.
• Provide leadership, coaching and support to managers and specialist teams, creating an environment where people feel empowered, informed and able to do their best work.
• Represent the directorate at senior meetings, committees and external events as required.

Skills, Knowledge and Expertise

• Leadership experience within a charity, healthcare, research, policy or related environment.
• Experience leading teams through periods of change, growth or organisational transition.
• Strong strategic thinking and prioritisation skills, with the ability to balance immediate delivery with longer-term organisational goals.

This is a high-impact leadership role at a pivotal moment for the organisation; an opportunity to help shape how GOSH Charity understands, measures and communicates its impact while supporting teams and stakeholders through an important year of strategic transition.

A rare chance to build something from zero — and see your work move millions of pounds to the world's most effective charities.
 

The opportunity

In recent years, some of the biggest problems in the world have gotten worse.

• The decades-long decline in extreme poverty has slowed.
• Factory farming continues to grow, with 13 billion farmed animals killed annually in the U.S. alone.
• The rapid deployment of increasingly powerful AI systems raises questions about safety and alignment that remain largely unresolved.

What gives us hope is that research-backed, scalable, but grossly underfunded ways to make progress on these problems exist.

More than 11,000 people have pledged at least 10% of their income to the world's most effective charities through Giving What We Can's 10% Pledge. Our global community gives over £63 million every year, funding malaria prevention, poverty reduction, animal welfare, AI safety research, and more.

GWWC has over 5,000 UK donors. £12.5M came from the top 300 alone in 2025. Despite this, there has been virtually no proactive relationship management. We believe there's huge potential to increase this figure with dedicated, high-quality donor stewardship.

London is GWWC's largest concentration of community members: over 2,600 CRM contacts and over 500 active pledgers. It's the natural centre of gravity for events and in-person engagement, with a rich ecosystem of high-net-worth individuals aligned with effective giving.
 

What you'll do

Build deep, lasting relationships with donors and pledgers. You'll proactively manage a portfolio of GWWC's highest-value community members through 1:1 meetings, calls, and thoughtful follow-up. Expect 8 to 10 meaningful conversations per week: coffees, dinners, calls.

Guide donors toward the highest-impact giving. Think of it as philanthropic advising. You're helping people think through where their giving goes furthest, directing generosity toward GWWC-recommended, evidence-backed charities. You'll also inspire people to give more, helping them see why giving more significantly and effectively can transform the impact they have with their donations.

Run high-quality donor events. Intimate dinners, networking evenings, and community gatherings. You'll have an events budget and the freedom to experiment with formats that build connection.

Re-engage lapsed and non-reporting donors. When someone takes a pledge with GWWC, they commit to giving 10% of their income to effective charities. Some donors give through our platform (where we can track it), while others give directly to charities and report it back to us. Over time, many stop doing either: our data shows recording rates drop from 60% in year one to just 22% by year five without any proactive engagement. These aren't necessarily people who've stopped caring; many have simply drifted without anyone checking in. A single outreach test to 369 lapsed donors recovered $2.3M in reported donations. You'll do this systematically, bringing recording rates to around 70% for the group of people you're engaging with.

Inspire warm leads to take a giving pledge. Follow up with people who've attended events, expressed interest, or sit in our CRM but haven't yet committed. We expect approximately 80 new pledges per year from this work.

Build the strategy. You'll build the strategy in partnership with your counterpart in the San Francisco Bay Area. This is a joint endeavour: together you'll develop the model for how GWWC does donor engagement, then adapt it for each geography to replicate globally.
 

What we're looking for

A social chameleon with high EQ. You can read a room and calibrate, holding your own at a black-tie dinner or a casual coffee with equal ease. Different donors need different things; you instinctively know which register to use.

Energised by getting out there. You're the kind of person who'd rather have ten meetings in a week than five. You want to be out in the world, meeting people, opening doors, and building relationships. Some weeks half your outreach will go unanswered, and that doesn't slow you down.

Highly organised and strategic. You're able to use a CRM to maximise the number and quality of interactions you have, thinking strategically about how to invest the most time on the highest-potential opportunities, whether that's inspiring new donors or stewarding existing ones to give more.

Super agentic. Give you KPI targets and a CRM and you'll build the strategy from there. You're the kind of person who doesn't need to be told what to do next, you just see what needs doing and get on with it.

You really care deeply about these issues. You find the core questions of effective giving compelling. You can talk about why cost-effectiveness matters without sounding robotic, and you come across as authentic because you actually care about these issues.

5+ years of relevant experience. In fundraising, philanthropy, donor stewardship, major gifts, high-touch relationship management, or senior sales and partnerships. We care about what you can do, not credentials, but this is a senior role that requires demonstrated experience.
 

Nice to haves

We definitely don't expect any candidate to have all of these.

• Experience or familiarity with global catastrophic risks, global health and wellbeing, or animal welfare as cause areas
• Experience in the effective altruism or effective giving ecosystem
• Experience running or hosting donor events
• Experience with HubSpot specifically (CRM proficiency is essential, but HubSpot experience is a bonus)
• Understanding of UK tax-efficient giving (Gift Aid, share donations via ShareGift, payroll giving)
• Being a GWWC pledger yourself
• People management aptitude (you may grow a small team over time)
   

Compensation and benefits

• £77,000 – £89,000 depending on experience You can see how we calculate pay in our public salary calculator. 
• Contract: One-year fixed-term contract with a three-month probation period. We're open to exploring making it permanent if the first year is successful.

Benefits include:

• Fully remote work (with regular in-person donor meetings and events as part of the role)
• 25 days paid leave + public holidays
• 10% employer pension contribution and private health insurance
• £4,000 annual professional development budget
• £4,000 annual mental health support budget
• The knowledge that your work moves millions of pounds to the world's most effective charities
   

About us

Giving What We Can is working towards a world without preventable suffering or existential risk, where everyone is able to flourish. We do this by making giving effectively and significantly a norm among those who can afford it.

Founded in 2009, we are best known for the 10% Pledge, where over 11,000 people have committed to donating at least 10% of their lifetime income to highly effective charities. Our larger community of ~20,000 pledgers and donors currently gives ~£63M annually, of which GWWC processes and grants £24M+ yearly through our own donation platform.

We're a lean, remote, performance-focused team. Our impact evaluation shows a 7x multiplier: every $1 spent on our operations generates $7 in donations to highly effective charities. We're committed to a high level of transparency. And we're growing fast, on track for more than 40% year-over-year growth on donations in 2026.

You'll report to: James Rayton, Director of Community & Partnerships
