Our client  is an independent charitable foundation based in the UK.

They are transitioning from being a grant making organisation, to one focused on redistributing their endowment based on the terms of those who work closest to communities. Their strategic intention is to create space to reimagine, test and demonstrate how wealth, capital and social justice can co-exist in service to all for life now, and for future generations.

Empathetic, collaborative and people driven by nature, this person will be able to innovate, advise and problem solve from a people, process and strategic planning perspective. Intellectually curious with outstanding communication skills, this person will also have an appreciation of the work of the Foundation and the communities it seeks to serve, and be on board with its current journey of transition.

Our client  recognises that diversity is absolutely at the heart of its work, so actively encourages applications from people from marginalised communities and from people with lived experience of poverty and multiple disadvantage.

This role will be based at the Central London office and will have flexibility for home working.
