Charity development manager jobs
Our client is committed to transforming lives of children and young people by creating opportunities to learn, grow, and develop through Education. The charity is an independent funder, and our income is generated from our endowment which consists of both property holdings and financial investments, therefore we do not fund raise.
The organisation has distributed over £230 million in grants to a range of organisations that seek to promote the life chances of children and young people through Education, with around £15 million in grants distributed each year. The charity gives grants to benefit children and young people up to the age of 25 (or up to 30 for people with special educational needs and/or disabilities) who live within nine Boroughs in West, Central and North London.

The post holder will also be required to support the annual budgeting process, year-end audit and preparation of statutory accounts for approval by the Trustee.
The person:
The charity is looking for someone with previous finance experience preferrable but not limited to the charity sector, and strong collaborative and relational skills to work with different colleagues across the organisation. You will be a person who can take initiative, solve problems and get things done timely, be confident working with different internal stakeholders and external professional advisors and capable of considering different requirements and priorities in a knowledgeable way.
This person will have excellent attention to detail and will be highly organised and a strong communicator across a wide range of audiences.

This role represents a wonderful opportunity to become a key part of a long established and successful charity, which has outstanding roots and a lasting positive legacy in the local communities in Central and Greater London it serves.

Goods For Good is seeking an inspiring Chief Executive Officer to lead the charity through its next chapter of growth, impact and sustainable change.
This is a rare opportunity to take the helm of a well-established, values-driven organisation at a pivotal moment in its journey, building on strong foundations to support people in need while reducing waste at scale.
After more than a decade of transformational leadership from our Founder and CEO, Goods For Good is entering a planned period of transition. We are now looking for a CEO who can provide confident strategic and operational leadership, strengthen partnerships, and guide the organisation through its next phase of development.
Founded in 2014, Goods For Good redistributes surplus, overstock and quality-seconds goods from businesses to vulnerable communities in the UK and overseas. Our unique model sits at the intersection of humanitarian aid and environmental responsibility, ensuring usable goods reach people who need them most rather than going to landfill.
Working with hundreds of corporate partners and a growing network of charity partners, we have delivered essential items to millions of people and prevented over 50,000 tonnes of goods from going to waste. Our work is practical, collaborative and impact-driven, rooted in dignity, sustainability and compassion.
As CEO, you will work closely with the Chair and Board of Trustees to shape strategy, grow income and partnerships, and ensure operational excellence across our UK and international work. You will act as Goods For Good’s lead ambassador, inspiring confidence among funders, partners and stakeholders, while empowering a committed team and volunteer network to deliver our mission.
This role will suit an experienced, values-led leader with a strong track record in partnership building, income generation and organisational growth, who is motivated by the opportunity to lead a charity that delivers tangible impact for people and planet.
Interested candidates should submit an up-to-date CV and cover letter, outlining their motivation for the role and how their experience aligns with Goods For Good’s mission and future goals. Applicants should include examples of their approach to fundraising, leadership and how they have transformed or scaled charities, to deliver greater impact.
