About the Project
The Thames Catchment Community Eels Project (TCCEP) is a multi-partner, catchment-scale initiative working to support the recovery of the critically endangered European eel. Bringing together a strong consortium of environmental and community-focused organisations, the project delivers conservation, engagement and education activity across the Thames Basin.
Currently in its Development Phase, TCCEP is designing a high-quality Delivery Phase programme running from 2027 to 2030, funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund. The Activity Plan sits at the heart of this application and will directly shape how communities, volunteers and schools across the region connect with rivers, wildlife and conservation for years to come.

As Activity Plan and Engagement Manager, you will take the lead on developing the TCCEP Activity Plan and Volunteer Engagement Plan, bringing together partner expertise, consultation insights and consultant outputs into a coherent, inclusive and fundable plan that meets NLHF requirements.
This is not a delivery role. Your focus will be on shaping, coordinating and integrating contributions from across the partnership to create something ambitious, realistic and compelling.

- Working with the Programme Manager and partners to define activities, audiences, outputs, outcomes, costs and delivery responsibilities
- Coordinating stakeholder, community, school and volunteer mapping
- Ensuring activities are inclusive, accessible and aligned with EDIB principles
- Contributing engagement and education data to Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL)
- Providing regular progress, risk and delivery updates to the Programme Manager and Steering Group
What We're Looking For
We are seeking someone who can bring together ideas, people and evidence to create a clear, compelling and fundable Activity Plan. You will be confident navigating complexity, coordinating multiple partners and synthesising diverse inputs into a coherent whole.
Essential experience and skills include:
- Experience developing strategic plans or programmes for funders
- Experience in engagement and/or education programme development
- Experience coordinating multi-partner projects
- Strong written communication skills
- Ability to manage multiple inputs and deadlines
The following would be an advantage:
- Experience of National Lottery Heritage Fund projects
- Understanding of evaluation frameworks and outcome-based design
- Knowledge of the environmental, heritage or conservation sectors
- Experience of co-design or participatory approaches
You will also need to be willing to travel across the Thames Basin and to work occasional evenings for workshops or stakeholder sessions.

Greyhound Trust is looking for its first-ever Individual Giving Officer — a pivotal role in our growing Income Generation & Engagement team. This is a chance to shape, grow, and lead our individual giving programme from the ground up, helping us care for and home more greyhounds across the UK.
About the Greyhound Trust
For over 50 years, Greyhound Trust has supported greyhounds transitioning from racing into loving homes where they can thrive. Each year, with an annual income of around £4.5m, we home thousands of dogs, relying on a passionate network of staff, branches, and volunteers.
The world is changing, and so is the way people engage with causes they care about. We are now looking to grow and diversify our individual giving, building long-term relationships with supporters who share our commitment to the welfare of greyhounds. This is your chance to play a key role in shaping our strategy, delivering creative campaigns, and helping secure the financial foundation for the Trust’s future.
The Role
Reporting to the Head of Income Generation and Engagement, you will be responsible for:
- Creating, delivering, and evaluating our Individual Giving
- Building a diverse and sustainable portfolio of individual giving income streams, including regular giving, appeals, raffle, lottery, digital fundraising, mid-level giving, and legacy gifts.
- Planning and delivering multi-channel campaigns that integrate with marketing, communications, and retail initiatives.
- Using data and insight to drive performance, monitor results, and develop strong cases for support.
- Supporting branches and volunteers in delivering individual giving initiatives.
- Developing supporter journeys that encourage loyalty, growth, and long-term engagement.
- Ensuring all activities comply with fundraising legislation, best practice, and data protection law.
This is a hands-on role, that will allow you to take ownership of your programme while collaborating across the Trust to deliver impactful campaigns and initiatives.
Is this role right for you?
This role will suit you if you are an ambitious, hands-on fundraiser who thrives in a small, collaborative team where everyone is invested in the success of the whole organisation. You enjoy taking ownership, sharing ideas, and seeing things through to delivery, and you value open communication, mutual support, and a culture where colleagues are trusted to innovate and experiment.
You are likely to thrive if you enjoy balancing independent responsibility with teamwork, and if you are motivated by making a tangible difference rather than simply delivering outputs. You are curious, thoughtful, and practical, and you are happy to contribute beyond your immediate remit to help the organisation succeed.
Why join us?
- Be part of a compact, passionate, and close-knit team.
- Lead the development of the first dedicated individual giving programme in the Trust’s history.
- Work in a medium-sized, agile charity with a strong sense of purpose and financial stability.
- Play a key role in growing support and enabling more greyhounds to be cared for and rehomed across the UK.
Greyhound Trust was founded in 1975. Since then we are proud to have found over 100,000 loving homes for greyhounds.
