About Climate Cymru (as hosted by the WCIA)

Climate Cymru is a movement of thousands of individuals and a network of over 380 organisations from all sectors in Wales, brought together by shared values and a recognition that the climate and nature emergencies require urgent, fair action. We believe that action should be guided by science and the voices of people across Wales.

Climate Cymru is hosted by the Welsh Centre for International Affairs (WCIA). WCIA is a charity that inspires people in Wales to learn about and take action on global issues. WCIA’s vision is that everyone in Wales contributes to creating a fairer and more peaceful world.

Climate Cymru is impact-focused and a powerful vehicle for change in Welsh society. We do this by:

• Putting pressure on those with power to take concrete action
• Engaging productively with the Welsh Government
• Making sure voices from across Wales are heard and represented
• Inspiring and connecting our network
• Amplifying and accelerating our partners' work
• Sharing important information and opportunities with our network and the wider public
• Learning from society in Wales, and beyond
• Building broad public support for action
• Representing Welsh voices and organisations nationally and internationally 

Summary of the Role

Wales receives less than half the UK’s per-person civil society funding, a situation worsened by COVID-19, EU funding loss, public cuts, and the cost-of-living crisis. This is having a crippling impact on community groups and charities' ability to do their critical work. Climate Cymru is action-focused, has a large reach across Welsh society and is on a mission to do something about this issue. This role leads this potentially transformative work.

The post-holder will engage directly with trusts, foundations, philanthropic funders and collaborative networks to unlock more funding for groups in Wales. They will also lead the development of innovative, practical solutions to improve how funding is distributed, particularly to grassroots, under-resourced and historically excluded communities. This includes rolling out pioneering models of shared capacity, developing a Wales-specific environmental funding database, and providing strategic guidance to groups seeking funding.

The Head of Funding Innovation will work to influence funders, reshape funding infrastructure, and build the capacity of the Climate Cymru movement to access the resources it needs. Working closely with the Head of Renewable Energy and the wider Climate Cymru team, this role will be central to ensuring that funding systems in Wales are fairer, more inclusive, and better able to meet the scale of the climate and nature crisis.

Additionally, the role involves communicating the compelling cases for investment in Wales, and working with Climate Cymru’s communication team to gather and share powerful stories to help shift narratives around Wales as a place for ambitious, high-impact funding.

Specific responsibilities for the role

Funding strategy & funder engagement

• Develop and implement a strategy to increase the volume and accessibility of trust, foundation and philanthropic funding for climate, nature and social justice work in Wales.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with UK-wide and Wales-based funders, including trusts, foundations, philanthropic networks and collaborative funding bodies.
• Actively engage with the Environmental Funders Network and other relevant groups to amplify Welsh perspectives and influence funder priorities.
• Represent Climate Cymru and Wales in national funder conversations, advocating for funding approaches that meet the needs of community groups and organisations across Wales.

Capacity building, effective & fairer distribution

• Refine and facilitate the roll-out of innovative distributive models piloted by Climate Cymru, which offer access to skills and supportive capacity for grassroots groups, helping to reduce duplicated effort and increase sector-wide efficiency.
• Familiarise with available funding support, tools, templates, training providers and best-practice resources and signpost groups to the support they need.
• Coordinate and deliver personalised funding consultations, offering strategic advice to community groups and organisations in the Climate Cymru movement.
• Produce and maintain a Wales-relevant environmental funding database and ensure it is accessible, intuitively easy to use, regularly updated, and widely used across the sector.

Strengthening Wales’ funding infrastructure

• Identify systemic barriers to equitable funding in Wales, and co-develop practical, creative solutions with funders, civil society partners, and policy experts.
• Support trusts and foundations to design more accessible, inclusive grant programmes—especially those aimed at grassroots and marginalised groups.
• Convene collaborative learning spaces to share insights, pilot new models, and promote a culture of innovation within the Welsh funding ecosystem.

Strategic funding events & communications

• Work closely with the Climate Cymru communications team to produce inspiring written and visual content that supports a compelling case for funders to support Welsh grassroots action and organisations.

Additional Responsibilities

• Track and evaluate the project’s impact on funder engagement and access to funding in Wales, providing regular insights and recommendations to improve effectiveness.
• Undertake other duties as the line manager requires, to support the overall success of Climate Cymru’s initiatives.

They are here for stroke survivors and their loved ones, from the moment they enter the new and frightening post-stroke world, supporting them every step of the way as they find their strength and their way back to life.

It’s only thanks to the generosity of supporters and donors that they can provide vital support. 

The Association is driven by an ambition to improve the lives of everyone affected by stroke. This means they’re determined to create an equitable and inclusive workplace that benefits from the difference, and thrives on the diversity, of our people. Guided by an approach to solving inequity in stroke, the team are prioritising listening to, and learning from, lived experience across the charity.

The charity are working to improve the representation of this lived experience at all levels within the Association and are eager to recruit applicants from a variety of communities and backgrounds. We are keen to receive applications from people affected by stroke, people of colour, members of LGBT+ communities, and disabled people because these identities and experiences are underrepresented and would add enormous value to how the organisation work.

The charity has a variety of staff network groups and are committed to continuously improving diversity and inclusion efforts. If you have questions, or access needs, we’re happy to discuss any support and adjustments we can make throughout the recruitment process so that you’re able to contribute your best in a way that meets your needs.

The organisation

ImpactEd Group supports education and purpose-driven organisations to maximise and realise their potential. A growing and skilled team of over 30 people, we help our partners to be consistently impactful and sustainable through a combination of specialist support and use of digital tools.

This project would support our Evaluation Practice. The evaluation team works with over 1,500 schools and organisations, analysing the impact of programmes and interventions to help them do more of what works and less of what doesn’t for young people. As well as tailored consultancy and support for our partners, we support schools and organisations to collect and evaluate educational data through an in-house digital tool (our “School Impact Platform”) – which this project would support.

The opportunity

We are seeking an experienced data engineer to help transform our data infrastructure to better manage our growing dataset of over 14 billion records and create more efficient analytics capabilities. This is a hands-on technical role that will involve both strategic advisory work and practical implementation.

Initially a fixed-term project of around 3-4 months, working to the project outcomes, there may be opportunities for longer-term advisory and technical support following completion if this is of interest.

We are happy for you to work flexibly although would expect the majority of your time to be committed to this project. We expect the work to be conducted predominantly remotely, with a few key meetings in person at our London offices, though you are welcome to use our office space throughout. We anticipate the project being outside of IR35.

What will you do?

Our School Impact Platform brings together existing data from schools (for example, on student demographics and attendance at school) and other forms of data (for example, surveys on student wellbeing and motivation) to help school leaders and educational organisations better understand the impact of their educational choices and programmes.

Part of this involves processing significant data from schools, and we are looking at options for how this could be handled more effectively and be more easily extracted for analysis.

We currently have 14 billion records in a PostgreSQL table, which we believe could be stored more cost effectively and allow for faster data retrieval by using new or alternative data stores. We would also like to develop data pipelines to take data from Postgres to serve analytics use cases, either in new Postgres tables or potentially in a data warehouse or similar.

We would like someone to help identify the best solutions for both areas, assuming our assumptions are correct, and lead the majority of the implementation. You would work closely with our in-house software development team and an existing consultant with experience in data analytics.

Neuroendocrine Cancer UK is a national charity with a clear mission: to support and inform patients and families from diagnosis, enable access to the best care and treatment, stimulate research, raise awareness, and influence improvements in outcomes.

When asked what they love most about working at Rainforest Trust UK our staff say it is feeling they are making a difference and taking direct action on some of the biggest issues of our time - climate change, biodiversity loss and Indigenous Peoples' rights.
