Change life stories. One grant at a time.

Literacy is not a given.

The National Literacy Trust exists to change that and your fundraising will be at the heart of making it happen.

We're looking for a Fundraising Manager, Trusts & Statutory to join our Development team and grow our income from charitable trusts and foundations. You'll manage a portfolio of high-value funders, craft compelling proposals, and forge the kind of long-term relationships that sustain our work in 22 of the UK's most under-resourced communities.

What you'll be doing

• Building and managing a pipeline of five and six-figure trust and foundation grants
• Writing persuasive, evidence-rich funding applications and stewardship reports
• Developing deep, lasting relationships with funders at all levels, from programme officers to trustees
• Working in close collaboration with programme leads and the senior management team to align bids with our strategy
• Supporting and supervising a Trusts and Statutory Executive as a dotted-line report
• Contributing to income forecasting and budgeting for trustees
• Representing the charity at sector events and with external stakeholders

What we're looking for

• Significant experience securing and stewarding five and six-figure grants from charitable trusts and foundations
• Excellent written skills; you write proposals that inspire, not just inform
• Strong relationship management across a range of internal and external stakeholders
• Experience managing a funding pipeline with a CRM, and confident working to income targets
• Ability to juggle multiple deadlines without dropping quality
• A genuine commitment to social justice and the power of literacy

Why join us?
We are a rapidly growing organisation with 30 years' experience of changing lives through words. Our funders include the Arts Council, national government departments, and some of the UK's most respected foundations. You'll be joining a collaborative team where your work directly enables programmes in nurseries, schools, prisons and communities across the country.
We offer 39 days' annual leave (including bank holidays and Christmas closure), an 8% employer pension contribution, a flexible hybrid working policy, and a culture that genuinely values every member of the team. We are committed to diversity and inclusion, and welcome applications from all backgrounds.

Ready to make words matter?

Looking for a fundraising role where the income you raise directly moves the dial on mental health outcomes - and helps people access support when they need it most?

This could be the one. Chasing the Stigma is a national mental health charity on a mission to normalise and humanise mental health and they're looking for their first ever Fundraising Manager.

You'll find this a unique opportunity to own and grow an emerging fundraising function and shape it into something extra special.

About Chasing the Stigma

Chasing the Stigma exists to make sure everyone in the UK can find mental health support, whenever they need it.

Following organic growth, they are now ready to take fundraising to the next level - and this is where you come in!

About the role

As Fundraising Manager, you will support the development and lead on the delivery of a new and ambitious fundraising strategy across individual giving, community fundraising and corporate partnerships.

You will be trusted to spot opportunities, test ideas and build sustainable income streams that support life-changing and life-saving work.

This is a hands-on, varied role where you will combine strategic thinking with practical delivery. You will work closely with colleagues to build a clear case for support, bring the charity's impact to life through powerful storytelling and build meaningful relationships with supporters and partners across the UK.

There is real potential to build a fundraising team as income grows, if this matters to you.

Who we are looking for

You might already be a Fundraising Manager, or you could be ready to step up from a fundraising role. Either way, you'll be able to showcase:

• Track record of generating income through fundraising or business development
• Confidence with high-value corporate or individual fundraising, working at five-figures
• Strong communication and storytelling skills
• Proactive, ideas-led approach and enjoy taking ownership
• Genuine passion for shifting the dial on mental health

You don't need to be the finished article in every area - if you're a fundraiser with passion, creativity and drive, we would love to hear from you.

We would particularly welcome applications from people of colour, people with disabilities, people who identify as being LGBTQIA+, and people from other commonly marginalised groups who are underrepresented in Chasing the Stigma's team.

How to apply

If this sounds like your next big adventure, then we would absolutely love to hear from you.

Please send your CV to Ellen Drummond at Charity People in the first instance and we'll be in touch with further details if your skills and experience match what we're looking for.

Leukaemia UK – Our Charity

We are a ‘small but mighty’ charity with one big ambition: to stop leukaemia devastating lives. Despite decades of incredible progress, only half of leukaemia patients live longer than five years after their diagnosis. We won't stop until we change this. 

We accelerate progress through the life-changing research, awareness and advocacy that matter most to people affected by leukaemia, doing everything we can to make sure that the next person with leukaemia has the best possible experience of diagnosis, treatment and care.

The role brings together delegated leadership for HR, Governance, Operations (Facilities, H&S, IT) and Risk management, working within the strategic direction set by the Director of Finance and Resources and CEO.

Delivery will be a team effort, with operational coordination and administrative delivery carried out by the Governance & Operations direct report, under your leadership.

Whilst the accountability is broad, we seek first and foremost a qualified and experienced HR professional, with a track record in a wide range of HR disciplines, working across a variety of stakeholders and managing a busy workload to deliver programmes of work. As part of this, we would expect a level of exposure and competence with regards to operations, governance and risk management.

Help end avoidable blindness worldwide

Right now, 1.1 billion people are living with vision loss - yet the vast majority of this is preventable or treatable. Behind every statistic is a child missing out on education, a parent unable to work, a community held back.

At Orbis UK, we are part of a global organisation that trains eye care professionals, delivers life-changing treatments, and invests in innovative solutions - from our Flying Eye Hospital to global telehealth platform -so that no one is needlessly blind.

In 2025, the UK team raised £7.1m. These funds supported 18 projects across 8 countries. With these funds we delivered 9,908 training sessions for health workers, enabled 469,287 eye screenings, 37,378 treatments and delivered 2.5m doses of antibiotics to tackle trachoma. The organisation’s ambition is to grow our income to £10 million per year within the next five years.

To achieve our next phase of growth and impact, we are looking for a Director of Finance & Operations who shares their ambition to expand access to eye care in the countries where it is needed most.

Why this role matters

As part of the senior leadership team, you will ensure Orbis UK is financially strong, operationally effective, and ready to expand our reach. Your leadership will directly support programmes that restore sight, train clinicians, and strengthen health systems in the communities where we work.

Your impact

You will:

• Ensure every pound is used effectively to maximise Orbis UK’s life-changing impact
• Provide the financial insight that shapes strategic decisions
• Lead the teams that ensure the smooth running of the organisation - finance, HR, IT, and operations
• Strengthen governance, accountability, and sustainability as the organisation grows
• Partner with colleagues in the UK and internationally to deliver lasting change

Who we’re looking for

You are more than technically excellent - you are purpose-driven.

You’ll bring:

• A professional accounting qualification (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or CIPFA)
• Experience leading finance in a complex organisation, ideally with charity or public sector exposure
• The ability to translate financial insight into clear, strategic direction
• A collaborative leadership style and confidence working with senior stakeholders
• A genuine commitment to global equity and social impact

Join us

Orbis is not a large organisation; it depends more than most on the value added by the individual. If you believe you can bring not only strong professional skills, but also the personal qualities, commitment to our charitable aims, and collaborative spirit that make a meaningful difference in a small team like ours, we would love to hear from you and strongly encourage you to apply.
