Commitment to Diversity & Inclusion: 
Save the Children UK is committed to diversity and equality of opportunity in all aspects of our work both external and internal. We strive to be an inclusive employer and particularly encourage applications from under-represented groups such as returning parents or carers who are re-entering work after a career break, people who are LGBT+, from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic backgrounds, with a disability, impairment, learning difference or long-term condition, with caring responsibilities, from different nations and regions, and from less advantaged socioeconomic backgrounds. 

Prospectus is delighted to be working with Hope and Homes for Children to recruit a Database Manager who will directly manage and oversee the organisational use of their database (Raisers Edge NXT) and associated Blackbaud modules, as a critical tool in achieving fundraising and supporter engagement objectives. This job role has the potential to become permanent and can be worked remotely.

For almost 30 years, Hope and Homes has been fighting for every child to feel the love of a safe, family home; and to inspire organisations around the world to close the doors of orphanages forever. The need for their life-changing solutions has never been greater. Covid has brought millions more families to the brink of separation, and orphaned vast numbers of vulnerable children. Their approach is effective across a wide variety of contexts; moving children out of orphanages to safety, and reforming childcare systems from the top down to make family-based care the norm.

The main responsibilities of this role include leading the strategic development of the database and being responsible for the quality and consistency of data. You will set and maintain user standards, provide training and support fundraising and finance teams through analysis of data.

To be successful as a Database Manager you will have a good understanding of databases (ideally Raisers Edge) and how to use them effectively. You will understand how to improve data quality and know how to best support your colleagues to do the same. Alongside this, you will be able to complete data queries and segmentation and be able to work to deadlines.

As a specialist Recruitment Practice we are committed to building inclusive and diverse organisations, and welcome applications from all sections of the community. We invest in your journey as a candidate and are committed to supporting you in your application.

About us

The Lucy Faithfull Foundation is the only UK-wide charity dedicated solely to preventing child sexual abuse. We’re bold, we’re pioneering, we’re growing and we want your help.

Since 1992 we’ve kept children safe by working with people who have harmed them or who might do so to help them stop. We work with adults worried about their own sexual thoughts, feelings or behaviour towards children; adults worried about another adult or young person; young people themselves and with protective adults and professionals.

Our mission is to prevent sexual abuse from happening by working with those perpetrating it, those affected by it and with protective adults who can keep children safe.

We do this by working in partnership with government, charitable trusts, voluntary, statutory and private sector and the public.

Our confidential Stop It Now! helpline is the largest of its kind in the world. Our services, programmes and projects are designed to place a protective shield around children, to help prevent sexual abuse from happening in the first place or to prevent it from happening again.

The Stop It Now! helpline started in 2002. It is an anonymous and confidential helpline that provides advice and support to people who have concerns about child sexual abuse. Our target caller categories are:

• People concerned about their own sexual thoughts and behaviour towards children
• People concerned about another adult’s thoughts and behaviours to children
• Parents/Carers concerned about children displaying harmful sexual behaviour
• Parents/Carers concerned that their child has been abused.
• Adult survivors of child sexual abuse
• Professionals calling for case advice

About the role

Helpline Advisors are the first port of call to people who want to gain support and advice to deal with concerns relating to child sexual abuse. This can involve supporting them through the emotional impact of their personal and family circumstances; advising them of resources available that relate to their circumstances; but also guiding them through steps to help their situation so that they can move forward positively. There are a number of follow-on services offered by the organisation. The helpline is often the first point of access for these.

This is a highly rewarding role within a friendly and hardworking team which is committed to keeping children safe from sexual harm.

The helpline is open 9am-9:30pm Monday-Thursday and 9am-5pm Friday. Advisors typically work 4 hour shifts and we are looking for people who can commit to between 3 and 6 shifts per week.

About you

You will have experience of working in child protection, ideally with one or more of our key target groups: for example adults and/or children and young people who have sexually harmful behaviours, or child victims of sexual abuse, or family members of these individuals. Or you may be studying for a career in a related field, for example psychology, criminology, or anthropology. Our ideal candidate will be an energetic individual with excellent communication skills and a warm, empathic telephone manner.

Key attributes we are seeking include:

• A confident telephone manner
• An ability to explore a caller’s personal circumstances and provide confidential advice to callers through the Stop It Now! Helpline, chat and email services
• A team player who works well with colleagues to do their best to prevent child sexual abuse
• An enthusiasm to learn and to develop knowledge and skills to enhance their contribution to child safety
• Confidence and competence in the use of modern technologies for the effective discharge of many day to day tasks
• A finisher who pays attention to detail and maintains effective records in line with agreed policy and practice.
