Contract: Permanent
Location: Based in our London office, E1, with the requirement to travel as needed. We are open to a range of flexible working options, in line with Crisis’ Hybrid-Working Policy.
About the role
As Trusts Manager, you’ll play a pivotal role in driving the growth of Crisis’ income from charitable trusts, foundations, and lottery funders. Alongside managing a portfolio of high-value supporters, you’ll take the lead in identifying, cultivating, and securing new funding opportunities - building relationships with partners whose priorities align with Crisis’ mission to end homelessness.
Working closely with the Senior Trusts and Statutory Lead and the Head of Philanthropy and Development, you’ll help shape and deliver an ambitious fundraising strategy that balances sustainable partnership management with bold new business development. You’ll bring creativity and strategic insight to finding and engaging new funders, developing compelling propositions that open doors to long-term collaboration.
This is a relationship-driven role that blends strategic planning with hands-on delivery. You’ll produce persuasive proposals and reports, developing strong relationships with funders and trustees, and collaborating across Crisis to communicate our impact through compelling cases for support.

You’re confident using data and insight to guide your approach, measure progress, and refine your strategy. Above all, you’re motivated by Crisis’ mission and values — committed to equality, inclusion, and the belief that together, we can end homelessness for good.
