About the role

We are seeking an experienced Project Coordinator, to support the delivery of Believe in Climate Action (BELIEVE), an ambitious national initiative at the intersection of climate action, youth leadership and community engagement.

This is a unique opportunity to join a complex, high-impact programme that connects schools, communities, young people, researchers and policymakers, shaping a more inclusive and effective model of climate action across England. You would be joining a team that has been running impactful projects for 19 years, which centres the voices, needs and potential of young people to bring about change.

The BELIEVE project

Believe in Climate Action (BELIEVE) is an ambitious and innovative national programme led by the Faith & Belief Forum in partnership with the Cambridge Interfaith Programme. Together, we are building a bold new model for climate action, one that connects grassroots communities, young leaders, researchers and policymakers through collaboration, co-learning and shared purpose.

At its core, BELIEVE recognises that climate change is not only a scientific or political challenge, but a deeply human one. By bringing faith and belief perspectives into climate conversations, the programme challenges narratives of fatalism and opens up new, values-led pathways for action, rooted in care, responsibility and collective agency.

This is a rare opportunity to be part of a pioneering, cross-sector initiative that is reshaping how climate action happens in England. BELIEVE connects local and national efforts, linking schools, communities and decision-makers in a dynamic network designed to create lasting environmental and social change.

Through the programme, you will contribute to:

· Developing schools as community hubs for climate action, embedding sustainability into everyday life and learning

· Empowering young people as climate leaders, particularly those from underrepresented backgrounds, to design and lead meaningful local projects

· Building a national knowledge-exchange network, connecting grassroots initiatives with regional and national policy and practice

Working on BELIEVE means joining a collaborative environment that values innovation, inclusion and real-world impact. You will engage directly with communities, partner organisations and policymakers, helping to co-create solutions that reflect local needs while influencing wider systems change.

About the Faith & Belief Forum

For nearly 30 years, the Faith & Belief Forum has worked to build connected communities, a society that celebrates diversity, and to tackle faith and belief based hate, discrimination, division and polarisation.

We are a dynamic organisation, who puts the voices of our beneficiaries at the forefront. We work in schools to build connection, understanding and empathy, in universities to build confidence, skills and connection in the next generation of interfaith leaders, and in communities to celebrate the role that faith plays in society, and pilot new, innovative approaches to tackling hate and division at the local level.

Our team is diverse, talented, sensitive, and creative. We value building meaningful connection amongst ourselves, and with our partners and stakeholders.  We believe that a central solution to tackling division, polarisation and hate is expertly facilitated, and heartfelt, connection. In our projects this takes place through education, dialogue, social action projects, mentoring, training and development, public engagement events, and community led responses to local issues.

Anne Health is a not-for-profit organisation providing private gender-affirming healthcare to trans people across the UK. We believe in human-centred healthcare delivered by real professionals, transparent pricing, and making gender-affirming care accessible and affordable. Everything we do is grounded in warmth, dignity, and genuine care for our community. We operate remotely, with internal clinical and administrative employees supported by contracted prescribers across the UK and the EU.

Role Purpose

• Provide advice and guidance on a wide range of employee relations issues
• To keep up to date with changes to legislation and best practice and implement these within the organisation
• Lead on employee relations casework including (but not limited to) dispute resolutions, disciplinaries, grievances, absence, retirement and redundancy
• Lead on and develop the HR related policies and processes within the organisation
• Lead on the work we do around our culture, accessibility and inclusion
• Lead on the learning and development of our employees and workers

This is a fantastic role for someone with the desire to use their skills and experience to support the work of an organisation at the forefront of trans+ healthcare

This role combines two things that don't always sit together: the analytical curiosity to go into a system or process, understand how it actually works, and identify what needs to change - and the project ownership to take that work all the way through to delivery. You won't be handed a fully defined brief and asked to execute it. You'll be expected to investigate, map, and analyse on one hand, and structure, coordinate, and deliver on the other. The common thread is ownership: you take things on, see them through, and leave them in better shape than you found them.

Working closely with senior colleagues, partner organisations and national bodies such as HMPPS, you will drive programme excellence, innovation and partnership working. You will also play a key role in new business development, operational strategy, contractual delivery and ensuring we can reliably demonstrate the impact of our work.

About The Role
At Alzheimer’s Society, every action we take is about making life better for people living with dementia and their carers. We are advisors, supporters, fundraisers, researchers, communicators, and so much more. Some of us are volunteers, some are employees, but together we are a community united by a shared purpose: to make a real difference when it matters most.
We are looking for a Assistant Legacy Case Officer who wants to be part of that mission. This is more than a job. It is a chance to play a pivotal role in securing the future of our work.

This is a role where you can grow. You will have the opportunity to develop expertise across residuary and trust legacies while building your professional skills in a supportive and inclusive environment. Every case you handle is a story of impact, and your work will leave a lasting mark on our mission.
About You
We want to hear from people from all walks of life. You do not need to tick every box, because we value motivation, potential, and alignment with our values as much as experience. You might:

- Have experience in Legacy Administration or a willingness to learn, with familiarity with First Class 4 or similar systems
- Have some understanding of Wills, Probate, or Trust law, or be keen to develop this knowledge
- Be working towards, or interested in, an ILM Certificate in Charity Legacy Administration or similar professional development
- Be able to thrive in a busy administrative environment, balancing multiple priorities independently or as part of a supportive team
- Be comfortable using Microsoft Office, including Outlook and Excel
- organised self-starter with attention to detail and pride in delivering accurate, high-quality work
- Communicate sensitively and professionally, showing empathy and respect to colleagues, stakeholders, and people affected by dementia

You understand that every legacy you manage is a story, and your work helps ensure those stories continue to make a lasting impact.
Our commitment to Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging

We need to ensure the voices around our table better reflect and understand the communities we exist to serve. We strongly encourage individuals to apply who have a disability, impairment or health condition or individuals who identify as Black, Asian or from another minority ethnic background, as these groups are currently under-represented at Alzheimer's Society.  

We want everyone we work with, as a colleague, volunteer, supporter, or someone we support, to feel included and that they belong at Alzheimer's Society. 

Our Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy here along with our internal employee forum and Employee Lived Experience network groups help us promote inclusion and belonging, becoming an engaged and inclusive organisation for all our people. 

Our hiring process

During your recruitment process we want to make sure that you bring your whole self and can be at your best. We are working hard to ensure our recruitment process is as inclusive as possible, so please do inform us of your experience and anything you think we could do better by completing our candidate survey when you apply.  Please also contact Alzheimer's Society Talent Acquisition Team via [email protected] for application support or any adjustments you might need.

To ensure fairness and consistency to select the best candidate for this role, all our applications are anonymised up until an interview has been confirmed. We recognise the benefits of AI, but if you're considering using it to submit your application, we encourage you to reflect on the value it truly adds. AI tools often lack the personal touch and authenticity that set candidates apart. We want to hear your unique perspective, experiences, and skills, so we encourage you to showcase them in your own voice.

We try to avoid closing roles early where possible, however if we receive a high volume of applications, we may close earlier than the advertised closing date. Should this occur, we will aim to provide you with at least 48 hours' notice.

We are committed to safer recruitment and ensuring the welfare of those we work with, due to the nature of some of our roles, we might need to carry out a Criminal Record Check at the relevant level. You can read more information via our Website.

Giving back to you

Our employees work hard every day to make a true difference in people's lives. We are proud to support them with a range of benefits, recognition and many options for working agilely, all contributing to a strong work life balance. We also have various learning programmes to support you in your development and help you grow to realise your potential and shape a career with Alzheimer's Society.
