What you’ll do
We are seeking a Head of Finance and Resources to provide strategic leadership and operational management across IPSEA’s finance, HR and Fundraising functions, ensuring the charity has robust financial management, effective systems, and sustainable infrastructure to deliver its mission. This role focuses on organisational management, financial integrity and coordination across functions, rather than providing specialist Fundraising or HR expertise.
This is a hands-on role. While the postholder leads on financial strategy, planning and control, they are also responsible for delivering key financial processes and day to day operations. The role oversees key organisational functions including HR and fundraising.
They line manage the Finance Administrator, HR Manager and Fundraising Manager, ensuring alignment, coordination and effective use of organisational resources across the organisation.
Professional expertise and delivery within HR and fundraising remain the responsibility of the relevant managers. The role does not carry responsibility for income generation targets but ensures robust financial and operational support for fundraising activity.
As Head of Finance and Resources, you will be responsible for:
- Financial systems, control and operations
- Financial reporting and Management Accounts
- Budgeting, forecasting and financial strategy
- Restricted funds, compliance and governance
- Fundraising and income support
- Leadership, resources and organisational operations
This role offers the opportunity to make a real difference as part of a small, friendly, and dedicated team. If you are passionate about helping children and young people with SEND and have the skills and experience needed, we would love to hear from you.
Who are we looking for?
You’ll need to be a fully qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA, CIPFA or equivalent) with a strong understanding and experience of charity finance, SORP, compliance, risk management and governance.
Significantly experienced in charity finance and financial management or organisational resources, you will be able to prepare management accounts, budgets, forecasts and financial reports and support budgeting and longer-term financial planning.
You will have experience of managing and motivating staff while working with senior leadership teams and/or trustees.
You have strong organisational and analytical skills and can analyse financial information and translate it for non-financial stakeholders. Experience improving systems, processes or digital infrastructure would be preferred but is not essential.
It would be desirable if you had experience overseeing HR, fundraising or wider operational functions, or managing multi-disciplinary teams.
IPSEA should also reflect the communities we support. We would particularly like to hear from candidates from ethnic minority backgrounds, LGBTQIA+ people, under-served communities and disabled people, as well as those with lived experience of the SEND system, either as a child or as a parent/carer.
What we can offer you
- 5% employer pension contributions
- Healthcare cash plan
- Flexible working arrangements
- 5 weeks annual leave plus bank holidays and an additional day off for your birthday

About Future Frontiers
Household income is still one of the strongest predictors of a young person’s future opportunities and earning potential in the UK. Future Frontiers exists to level the playing field. We equip under-resourced young people with the knowledge, skills, confidence and connections they need to broaden their horizons and take positive steps towards their futures.
In partnership with schools and businesses across Greater London, we deliver programmes of personalised careers coaching, skills development and exposure to professional role models for young people from low-income families. This year, we are supporting around 2,500 young people through our programmes. You can find out more about our work and impact in the Annual Impact Report on our website.
About the role
We’re looking for an experienced Philanthropy Manager to join our small, ambitious team and help secure the funding that makes our work possible.
Our Philanthropy team builds meaningful relationships with supporters, particularly charitable trusts and foundations, to secure a significant proportion of Future Frontiers’ income. We have a strong case for support, a track record of securing trusts and foundations funding, and an exciting pipeline of opportunities. We’re now looking to build on this success as we continue to grow our philanthropy income.
Reporting to the Head of Philanthropy, you’ll identify prospective funders, manage relationships with charitable trusts and foundations, and craft compelling funding proposals and reports that bring our impact to life.
This role requires exceptional writing skills, meticulous attention to detail and the ability to communicate information clearly, accurately and persuasively. You’ll need to be highly organised, proactive and confident managing multiple deadlines, while producing consistently high-quality work.
We’re looking for someone with strong trusts and foundations fundraising experience who can combine outstanding written communication with excellent relationship-building skills.
Your responsibilities:
Write funding applications and reports
You’ll lead on developing high-quality funding applications, reports and proposals for charitable trusts and foundations that make a compelling case for support and bring our impact to life.
This will include translating complex programme and impact information into clear, engaging and persuasive written communications tailored to each funder’s interests and priorities.
Exceptional writing skills and meticulous attention to detail are essential. You’ll ensure all applications and reports are accurate, well-structured, tailored and submitted to a consistently high standard.
You’ll work closely with colleagues across the organisation to gather information, outcomes and stories that reflect the impact of our programmes.
Manage relationships with trusts and foundations
You’ll help build and manage strong relationships with charitable trusts and foundations through thoughtful stewardship, high-quality communications and proactive engagement.
With support from the Head of Philanthropy, you’ll identify opportunities to secure renewed and increased support, helping grow long-term partnerships with funders.
You’ll also act as an ambassador for Future Frontiers, creating opportunities for supporters to engage more deeply with our work.
Identify new funding opportunities
You’ll proactively identify charitable trusts and foundations with the potential to support Future Frontiers. Through research and collaboration with colleagues across the organisation, you’ll help build a strong pipeline of prospective funders and develop tailored approaches for engagement.
Gather case studies and impact stories
You’ll help collect pupil case studies and testimonials that bring the impact of our programmes to life.
This may include attending programme sessions, speaking directly with young people and helping them feel comfortable sharing their experiences. Strong communication skills, sensitivity and the ability to build rapport with young people will therefore be important in this role.
Support wider voluntary income and engagement opportunities
You’ll work with colleagues across the organisation to support wider voluntary income and engagement opportunities where appropriate. This could include supporter engagement activity, charitable giving from businesses and other opportunities that help grow Future Frontiers’ network and income.
Keep accurate and detailed records
You’ll ensure all philanthropy activity is recorded promptly and accurately, helping us manage relationships, reporting deadlines and fundraising activity effectively. You’ll support the team’s efficiency by keeping organised records and helping manage key administrative processes.
You’ll also ensure we meet data protection and fundraising regulations, including GDPR and the Code of Fundraising Practice.
Contribute to wider organisational priorities
You’ll be a collaborative team member, supporting cross-team projects and organisation-wide initiatives as needed. From time to time, you may also be asked to take on other duties in line with your role.

Fundraising Manager
Organisation: The Outrunners Charity
Job Description
-
Job title: Fundraising Manager
-
Location: Hackney Bridge, Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, London (a canalside public destination less than five minutes from Hackney Wick station)
-
Salary: £36,700-£40,000 FTE depending on experience, pro rata to £22,000-£24,000
-
Hours: 0.6 FTE (3 days/21 hours per week). Office hours are 10am - 6pm with occasional evenings and weekends. Flexible working opportunities are available.
Who are The Outrunners?
The Outrunners are a running and movement charity based in Hackney, on a mission to empower young people through movement. Backed by an incredible crew of volunteers and partner brands like Nike and Moju, we help young people in East London to build confidence, wellbeing, health and leadership skills.
We deliver free, fun, sociable, youth‑led running and movement sessions for 8–18 year olds every week - during term time and holidays. But we’re about more than just running. We create space for young people to explore creativity and culture, go on exciting trips, access wraparound wellbeing support, and develop the skills and opportunities they need to shape the futures they want.
Over the past five years, we’ve supported thousands of young people and helped push greater diversity within the running world.
We like to do things differently - taking young people out of their everyday environments and into exciting new spaces, opening doors to opportunities they might not otherwise have access to. If that sounds like something you want to be part of… read on.
Our achievements
We’re a small charity but we pack a mighty punch. Our income has grown year-on-year since we became a charity 6 years ago - allowing us to expand our core team and move into office premises large enough to incorporate a Youth Hub. Last year we worked with over 1,150 young people through our school and communities programs, and this year we’re looking to expand our work even further!
To give you a sense of the kinds of work that we do, over the last year we have:
-
Hosted a free Girls’ Festival for 100+ ethnically diverse young girls, allowing them to try running sessions, creative classes and yoga experiences in a safe and empowering environment.
-
Hosted free training academies for 40 ethnically diverse women and 25 young people aged 16-21 to train for their very first half or full marathons! We offered physical, emotional and logistical support throughout their training journey and cheered on every single one of them as they ran either the Hackney Half or the London Marathon under the Outrunners name.
-
Took diverse groups of young people to races and events, such as Hackney School run and Black to the Trails.
-
Offered personalised mentoring to several of our young people who were struggling with school or life.
-
Expanded the career horizons of young people by offering them a free work experience opportunity with our partner brands.

Maternity care in England causes harm. We are working to change that, and we need facilitators who are ready to hold that conversation with honesty, courage and care. White Ribbon Alliance UK is building a pool of freelance facilitators to co-deliver Free From Harm, our programme on obstetric violence, birth trauma and rights-based practice.
About White Ribbon Alliance UK
White Ribbon Alliance UK advances sexual and reproductive health and rights by centring wellbeing, human rights and equity. Our primary focus is on improving experiences and outcomes in maternity and perinatal care. We work with maternity professionals, pregnant and birthing people, and communities to strengthen rights, safety, equity and accountability across the system.
About Free From Harm
Free From Harm is our training programme on obstetric violence, birth trauma, informed consent, respectful maternity care and rights-based practice. It supports maternity professionals and related practitioners to recognise harm in perinatal care, understand how discrimination and power shape people's experiences, and strengthen safer, more respectful and more accountable practice.
The opportunity
As Free From Harm grows, we are building a pool of trusted freelance facilitators to co-deliver the programme to participant groups across England.
This is a self-employed contractor opportunity, offered on an assignment-by-assignment basis from August 2026. The day rate is £250. In addition, facilitators may earn affiliate commission of 20% of the relevant booking value where a booking is directly attributable to them through an agreed referral or sales route. This gives facilitators with existing networks in maternity, midwifery, NHS, public health or related sectors the opportunity to increase their earnings beyond the day rate. Any commission arrangement will be confirmed in writing.
Joining the pool does not guarantee minimum work or continuing engagement. Each assignment will be agreed in advance, including dates, location, preparation expectations and fees.
Who we are looking for
We are looking for facilitators who can hold complex, emotionally honest and sometimes challenging conversations with care, clarity and courage.
You may have come to this work through facilitation, maternity advocacy, midwifery, doula work, clinical education, community organising, activism, public health, reproductive rights, lived experience or another route entirely.
We are especially interested in people who bring:
- Knowledge of obstetric violence, birth trauma, informed consent and respectful maternity care
- Understanding of trauma-informed practice and psychological safety in group settings
- A genuine anti-racist, anti-discrimination and intersectional approach
- Experience facilitating groups where difficult, activating or sensitive material arises
- Confidence naming harm, power, coercion and structural causes clearly and directly
- Co-facilitation experience, including joint planning, delivery and debrief
You do not need to have followed a traditional professional route. We value lived experience, community knowledge, advocacy and activism alongside formal training and professional experience.
Our values
WRA UK is an unapologetically feminist, anti-racist and inclusive organisation. Equity, dignity and justice are not aspirations for us. They are the foundation of everything we do.
We strongly welcome applications from people who are Black, Asian and otherwise racially minoritised, disabled, LGBTQ+, or from communities underrepresented in sexual and reproductive health and the charity sector.
Key details
- Engagement type: Self-employed contractor, day-rate basis
- Day rate: £250 per day, plus 20% affiliate commission on eligible bookings
- Location: Home-based preparation, with online and in-person delivery across England as agreed
- Start date: Rolling from August 2026
- Eligibility: Applicants must have the right to work in the UK and be resident in the UK throughout any engagement
- Deadline: 5pm BST on 30 June 2026
How to apply
Free From Harm Facilitator Application
Please include:
-
Your CV or consultant profile, maximum 2 pages. You are welcome to include links to examples of your work, such as a website, recorded sessions or talks, blogs, podcasts, learning resources, public writing or relevant campaign work.
-
A 3-minute video explaining what makes you well-placed to facilitate Free From Harm, or a 1–2 page written document if you would prefer not to record a video.
We are looking for concrete examples from your real work, not general statements of values or commitment. We are especially interested in your experience of facilitating trauma or harm-related material, co-facilitation, and how an anti-racist and intersectional lens shows up in your practice.
Shortlisted applicants will be invited to a conversation with WRA UK. We will ask shortlisted applicants to discuss a real facilitation example, respond to a scenario and provide references or examples of previous work.
