Thank you for your interest in Greater Manchester Mayor’s Charity. Greater Manchester Mayor’s Charity launched in April 2019 with one clear vision, that homelessness has no place here in Greater Manchester. As one of the founding funders of A Bed Every Night, we have been at the forefront of efforts to reduce rough sleeping in the city region. Since our launch, our grant making has evolved to complement this emergency response through two additional priority areas: Places and Spaces, and Targeted Prevention.

But as the challenges develop, so does our response. Our next step is to support organisations and initiatives working with communities – as well as individuals – to turbocharge progress towards a city-region where everyone has a safe, genuinely affordable place to call home and everyone can flourish and thrive.

In collaboration with the VCFSE sector of Greater Manchester, 10GM, the GMCA and NHS GM, Greater Manchester Mayor’s Charity are powering the Live Well Communities Fund and helping the partners to grow the success of the first year of this programme.

The Partnership & Engagement Officer will play a central role in this new collaboration, driving forward engagement with VCFSE partners deploying the fund and delivering funded activities whilst also growing partnerships and identifying opportunities to grow the fund itself.

Spanning fundraising and engagement, this is an exciting opportunity at the heart of an innovative new stage for Greater Manchester Mayor’s Charity and the city region. If you are ready to take the next steps in your career, growing and developing in a fast-paced, high-profile charity and working alongside a small but committed team dedicated to addressing homelessness in Greater Manchester, then we look forward to receiving your application!

The Role

We are looking for a highly organised, confident individual who is excited working in a fast-paced, high-profile environment and passionate about addressing homelessness and empowering communities in and across Greater Manchester.

You will play a crucial role in growing the Live Well Communities Fund. This will include building relationships to identify and maximise funding opportunities, working with our Communications and Content Executive and the Live Well Communities Fund partner organisations to share learnings and impact from funded activities, and providing administrative support to ensure the smooth running of this project alongside our Office Lead.

You will be comfortable working flexibly within a small team, as well as engaging and networking with people and organisations across the public, private and VCFSE sector.  You will have excellent written and verbal communication skills and be committed to our vision: a Greater Manchester where everyone has a safe, secure and genuinely affordable place to call home, and is able to flourish and thrive in a strong, resilient community.

This is a great opportunity for someone looking for a role in a dynamic and growing organisation with real social impact.

The Greater Manchester Mayor’s Charity values diversity. Dedicated to cultivating and upholding a culture of inclusion, we are committed to equal opportunity and anti-discrimination practices and full members of the Greater Manchester Good Employment Charter.

We seek diversity in our applicants and are particularly interested in attracting applications from candidates from historically marginalised groups and people under-represented in the Charity sector.
