• Manage your portfolio using donor insight, research and pipeline planning, ensuring accurate CRM records and contributing towards ambitious income targets
• Play an active role within the Major Gifts team, sharing intelligence, supporting colleagues and contributing to the continued success of the programme

Essential skills and experience:

• Experience identifying, cultivating and securing significant gifts from HNWIs or experience of personally securing high value income through developing relationships with individuals, for example strategic corporate partnerships or relevant out-of-sector experience.
• Experience managing a portfolio of donors, clients, accounts or comparable external relationships, developing tailored engagement strategies that build long-term relationships
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to develop compelling proposals, pitches and donor communications, and build credibility with senior stakeholders

• A warm, authentic and emotionally intelligent relationship-builder, able to adapt your approach to different audiences and create meaningful engagement opportunities
• Confident representing an organisation professionally at meetings, events and other external engagements
• A collaborative approach, sound judgement and genuine commitment to Greenpeace UK’s values and mission

At The Poppy Factory, we believe that everyone who has served our country deserves the opportunity to build a fulfilling life beyond the armed forces. For over a century, we have stood alongside veterans and their families, evolving our services to support veterans and adult family members to overcome barriers to employment and transform their lives.

We are now seeking a passionate and person-centred Navigator to join our team. This is a role for someone who believes in potential, not limitations – someone who can walk alongside clients with empathy and determination, empowering them to take ownership of their employment journey.

As a Navigator, you will support veterans furthest from employment to engage in meaningful activity and take gradual steps towards work. This non-clinical role focuses on helping veterans with mental or physical health challenges overcome barriers affecting their lives, improve wellbeing and reduce social isolation.

Clients of the service may present with issues around housing, accessing relevant health care services, substance misuse, education and training, financial concerns, and benefits, amongst others. Using coaching, mentoring and strengths-based approaches, you will help individuals identify their goals, build resilience and move confidently towards lasting employment outcomes.

Collaboration is at the heart of this role. You will develop strong partnerships with regional organisations to generate referrals and address wider barriers such as mental health, housing or addiction, and share best practice with your colleagues in the team.

With a strong understanding of local labour markets and safeguarding practices, you’ll maintain high-quality case records, contribute to continuous improvement, and actively participate in team development. Adaptability, initiative and resilience are key, as we respond to the evolving needs of our clients and the communities we serve.

Charity People is delighted to be partnering with LEF, a social justice foundation that is committed to strengthening the power of communities to use and shape the law.

This is a brilliant opportunity to join a thoughtful and ambitious organisation at an exciting point in its journey, they are early in a new five-year strategy focused on the role of law in achieving social justice across the UK.

The organisation works to support communities tackling the root causes of injustice, funding organisations that connect legal frameworks with real-world change.

If you're passionate about social justice, relationships-led grant making, and learning alongside the organisations you fund, this could be a great next step.

About the role

As Grants Officer, you'll play a key role in delivering a collaborative and inclusive grant-making approach, supporting work that brings the law closer to communities.

You'll be part of a small, supportive team and involved across the full grant lifecycle from early conversations with applicants through to assessment, decision-making and ongoing grant management.

This is a role with real scope to contribute ideas, shape practice, and deepen how the organisation works with its partners.

Key responsibilities include:

• Supporting applicants and helping develop a strong pipeline of grant applications
• Assessing proposals for funding including reviewing financial and other organisational information
• Building trusted, thoughtful relationships with funded partners
• Managing a portfolio of grants and supporting partners over time
• Contributing to learning, reflection and continuous improvement across the grants team
• Working collaboratively with colleagues to strengthen processes and practice

You'll also have the opportunity to contribute to wider conversations about social justice, funding practice, and the external environment.

About you

They are looking for someone who brings both practical experience and a strong alignment with the organisation's mission and values.

You might already be working in grants, or you may be looking to bring your experience from the charity or social sector into a grant making role.

You'll likely bring:

• Experience building and managing relationships with a range of stakeholders
• Experience working or volunteering in the charity or social sector

• Strong relationship-building skills and the ability to engage sensitively with diverse stakeholders
• Clear and confident communication skills (written and verbal)

• A collaborative, reflective approach to your work

An understanding of the UK social justice landscape or lived experience connected to the organisation's mission, would be valuable, but is not essential.

If you don't tick every box, we'd still encourage you to apply.

A values-led and reflective funder

LEF is committed to actively addressing power imbalances in grant making and centring the voices of communities most affected by injustice.

Its work is guided by a strong focus on Power, Culture and Inclusion, recognising both the opportunities and risks within legal systems, and the importance of funding being accountable to those it exists to serve.

Why this role?

This is a chance to:

• Work closely with organisations driving real social change
• Be part of a funder actively rethinking power and practice
• Contribute to a collaborative and learning-oriented team
• Develop your career in values-led grant making
