Diversity jobs

Do you want to make a difference to local lives?

We are an independent local charity based in Bosham, Chichester offering exceptional end of life care to our patients and support to their loved ones. The work we do makes a real difference to the lives of local people and we support over 330 patients at any one time, in our In Patient, Community, Living Well and Family Services teams.  We generate the majority of our funding through fundraising and our eleven charity shops.

With operating resources of around £10.5 million per year and a workforce of around 270 employees and c.500 volunteers, we provide our services and seek to live our values of Compassion, Excellence, Integrity, Responsibility, and Collaboration in all that we do.

We believe that the best care is delivered when people work together with openness, respect, and shared purpose. As we look to the future, we are focused on sustainability, and effective, visible leadership across the organisation so that we can continue to provide our vital services for years to come.

The Role

We are seeking an experienced and values-driven Director of Finance  to join our Senior Management Team (SMT) and help lead the hospice as a whole. Click on redirect to recruiter to view full job details.

This is far more than a technical finance role. As a key member of the SMT, the Director of Finance will hold collective responsibility for the overall leadership, culture, performance, and strategic direction of the organisation, working collaboratively with fellow senior leaders to ensure our values shape decision-making at every level.

Alongside strategic financial leadership, the role includes senior oversight of Facilities and IT, recognising the vital role these services play in the provision of safe and effective services.  The role also operates as Company Secretary and takes responsibility for information governance.

Reporting to the Chief Executive, the Director of Finance will work closely with Trustees, senior colleagues, and external partners to ensure the hospice remains financially sustainable, well-governed, and resilient. 

About You

You will be a senior finance leader who combines professional expertise with strong interpersonal skills and a clear commitment to values-based leadership. You will bring:

• A recognised accounting qualification (ACA, ACCA, CIMA, CIPFA, or equivalent).
• Significant senior-level financial leadership experience, ideally within a charity, healthcare, public sector, or complex not-for-profit environment.
• Experience of working closely with Boards or Trustees and contributing at a strategic level.
• The ability to lead collaboratively beyond finance, with credibility and interest in areas such as Facilities and IT.
• A genuine commitment to leading with Compassion, Excellence, Integrity, Responsibility, and Collaboration.

We offer our employees:

• Generous annual leave starting at 27 days, rising to 33, plus Bank Holidays, and an opportunity to buy / sell annual leave days
• Continuation of NHS Pension Scheme membership or membership of our workplace pension with 7.5% employer contribution
• Life Assurance Scheme, Employee Assistance Programme, contributory Health Cash Plan, and a range of discounts.

Equality, Diversity and Inclusion at St Wilfrid's

We value diversity and are committed to being a place where people feel their differences are recognised and welcomed, and their needs are heard and respected. Creating an inclusive workplace is a core part of our aim to ensure St Wilfrid’s is a great place to work and a compassionate and caring place to be.

We want to hire talented people and to make sure our processes don’t exclude or disadvantage people with disabilities or different needs. Please let us know what would help you apply for our role – we’re happy to be flexible with our process to help you showcase your skills and abilities. 

We guarantee an interview for candidates with disabilities who meet the essential criteria for the role. As a signatory to the Armed Forces Covenant and member of the Defence Employer Recognitions Scheme, we’re also keen to support applications from members of the Armed Forces family. If your Armed Forces-related circumstances mean that a conventional application and interview process might be difficult, let us know.

The Trust’s mission is to use all of our assets, especially our money, to work with others to bring about structural change for a more just and equal society. Communication (both internal and external) plays a critical role in helping us to achieve this. We seek to effect long-term structural change through influencing, advocacy, campaigning, convening and research. We work in deep collaboration with partners by: building supporting alliances and ecosystems for social change; building an evidence base to advocate for change; and ensuring the voices of people affected by social injustices are listened to and heard both by us and by those in positions of power.

This is an exciting time to enter the Trust. As Head of Communications you will develop and oversee communication strategy to help the Trust achieve its strategic objectives (which will be refreshed in 2026-7). You will also play an active role in promoting social justice messages, campaigns and learning deriving from our work and that of our partners. This role will be of interest if you are committed to learning about and communicating how social change happens and if you want to help the Trust build on its work to make a real difference in tackling long-term structural inequality.

This is a full-time contract:

• Starting Salary: £55, 170 per annum for a 35 hour week
• Generous contributory pension scheme of up to 10%.
• Hybrid working with an expectation that at least 2 days a week will be office/field-based. The Barrow      Cadbury Trust office is in Vauxhall, London.

Barrow Cadbury Trust is an independent, endowed charitable foundation that has been working with others to drive structural change that leads to a just and equal society for more than 100 years.

We have a strong commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion and we encourage applications from people with personal experience of the social justice and human rights issues we seek to address. All staff have the right to request flexible working and to have this considered by their manager.

Head of Individual Major Gifts

Greenpeace UK

Location: London, UK

Salary: This role is positioned with a salary range of £63,756 - £70,236 pa.

Greenpeace is a movement of people who are passionate about defending the natural world from destruction.

Our vision is a world where everyone has equal access to clean air, water and energy; where the nature we love is protected, precious habitats are restored and communities are united by ambitious climate action.  To make this a reality, we transform politics, industry and society to create a greener and fairer world.  Our mission is to halve emissions and restore biodiversity by the end of this decade in a fair and equitable way.  Together we show up, we stand up, and we get things done.  And we’ll do it again tomorrow.

In the last five decades, Greenpeace has become one of the foremost environmental organisations in the world, winning victories that have put climate and nature protection on the map. Fast forward to the present day, and we have gained huge momentum. Our movement is booming, environmentalism is mainstream and the solutions are more viable than ever. We look to the future from a position of strength. Now is the time to seize it.

We’re at a pivotal point in human history to turn the tide on climate change and biodiversity loss.  In order to ensure our campaigning efforts continue to be effective and to keep up the pressure on government and businesses, we fundraise from private individuals and charitable trusts and foundations who help us continue our work.  Our high-performing Fundraising Department contributes significantly towards a Global Capital Campaign to raise EUR100M for a new ship, and there is so much more we want and must do.  We are therefore looking for two talented high-value fundraising specialists and leaders to lead key areas of our activity and ensure that we continue to sustainably grow our philanthropic income. 

As the Head of Individual Major Gifts, you will be responsible for leading, managing and developing a programme that will drive income growth from high-value individuals.  This is an opportunity to take on a successful programme to new heights through effectively managing and growing a developed portfolio of donors, as well as lead a small and dedicated team of fundraisers to transform their supporter pipelines.  As a leader within the Key Relationships and wider Fundraising team, you will identify and create opportunities for collaboration across our team, and as our UK Lead for the Global Capital Campaign, you will also play a vital role across our international network of offices. 

Success in this role will therefore require an experienced major gifts professional with a track record of securing 6-figure level gifts (or more) from individual philanthropists, and a strategic approach and enterprising mindset to achieve progress.  A skilled negotiator with gravitas and highly developed interpersonal skills, you will inspire confidence and motivate those around you to rise to the ambition of our mission.  It will be important that you have some experience of line managing others, and getting the best out of the people or teams that you’ve led.  To be a successful leader in our Key Relationships team will require resilience, adaptability, and solutions-focussed approach.

We are at a crucial point in time for both the planet and our futures.  If you are excited by the opportunity to play a significant role in turning the tide on environmental destruction and want to see a fairer, more equitable planet for all through engaging philanthropic support, please consider applying.  We’d love to hear from you.

Greenpeace UK is partnering with Richmond Associates in this search.  For a confidential discussion or to get more information on the role, please contact Richmond Associates by email or call +44 (0)20 3617 9240.

This is a priority for us, as reflected in our representation targets and our approach to diversity, inclusion and anti-racism.

Don’t meet every single requirement? Research shows that women and people of colour may hesitate to apply unless they meet every area of the person specification. If you’re excited about this role but don’t meet all the criteria, we encourage you to apply – you might be exactly who we need.

Our staff, members and volunteers are vital to getting the right government policies in place, providing breakthrough services, and building a supportive community. We’ll lead by example to nurture a positive and ambitious workplace guided by ending homelessness.

Let’s Talk About Loss is delighted to be recruiting a part-time Charity Lead to guide us through an important transition period.

Founded in 2018, Let’s Talk About Loss supports young adults aged 18–35 who are bereaved, creating safe, supportive spaces to talk openly about grief. We are a small, values-led charity with a national reach, built on the power of community, peer support and shared experience.

This role has been created as maternity cover and will play a crucial part in delivering Year 1 of our new 2026–2029 strategy. We are looking for someone who can bring steadiness, organisation and care , ensuring our services continue safely and consistently, income generation is secure, and governance and safeguarding remain strong.

This is a delivery-focused leadership role, not a growth or expansion post. It would suit someone who enjoys rolling up their sleeves, working closely with trustees and volunteers, and taking responsibility in a small organisation — for example, someone looking to grow their leadership experience, or to step sideways into a values-led role with real responsibility.

About working for us

This is a fast-paced organisation that is committed to making a difference.

Being a part of our team is being part of a thriving, positive, dynamic, successful, and welcoming community that is making an impact. We will support you and develop you should you wish this, and you get the opportunity to be involved in activities outside the scope of your immediate role.

About us 

We are Pancreatic Cancer UK. We go above and beyond for everyone affected by this disease.

Right now, half of people with pancreatic cancer die within three months of diagnosis. Families are left with only hope to hold onto. They need more. So we do more.

We bring more break throughs through research, more change through campaigning and more support through our expert nurses.

We make more noise because people have gone unheard. We are relentless because the disease is ruthless. We care more because people feel forgotten.

Because people with pancreatic cancer need more than hope.

Underpinning this vision are our three values:

• Courage
• Compassion
• Community

We cannot achieve our vision without employing people who are committed to our vision, strategy, and values.

At Pancreatic Cancer UK (PCUK) our ambition is to create an inclusive working environment that reflects the communities and audiences that we engage with and where everyone can be their true selves, where they feel respected, championed, heard, and supported.  We want our workforce to achieve their potential, understand their contribution and feel proud of their impact by creating a culture and organisation that is genuinely inclusive by advancing equality, diversity, inclusion, and belonging through our policies and practices.

We believe diversity drives great outcomes by encouraging the different points of view that come from a diverse workforce. We want to hear from and engage with people whose experience of dealing with this disease may be very different depending on their individual circumstances and background. We can think of no better way to do this than by making sure this role fully represents our intent; therefore, we are especially keen to consider applications from suitable applicants who consider themselves to be in areas that appear underrepresented within the charity sector.

Safeguarding

PCUK is committed to safe and fair recruitment processes that safeguard and protect those we work with, support and serve. We make sure all our staff are selected, vetted (DBS/Criminal record checks where appropriate), trained, and supervised fairly and to a high standard so that they can provide safe, effective and compassionate care. Where we work with volunteers, we extend the same support in order to ensure that they are working within our ethos and standards.

Hybrid-working:

Our London office is a place to connect, collaborate and celebrate with colleagues, we recognise that flexibility around where you work is just as important. We are currently working hybrid with a minimum of 2-3 days in the office. This is an office-based role where you may be required to be in the office more frequently to attend activities and meetings depending on the needs of the role.
