Individual giving and supporter care manager jobs
About the role:
A front door is not the finish line. For people moving on from rough sleeping, accommodation can be the first real point of safety in years — but keeping it, trusting support and preparing for independent housing takes skill, patience and persistence.
As Lead Support Worker in our Rough Sleeping Accommodation Programme, you will support people accepted into RSAP move on accommodation to settle, sustain their tenancy and build the confidence, skills and connections they need to move forward. You will work with people who may be navigating trauma, poor mental health, substance use, offending histories, isolation or long periods of exclusion from services, offering support that is practical, consistent and rooted in their strengths.
You will take a lead role in referrals and assessments, develop high quality support and risk management plans, and work closely with housing, health, social care, criminal justice, substance use, mental health and community partners. From helping someone manage rent, bills and repairs, to advocating when systems become a barrier, you will be part of turning accommodation into a stable platform for longer term independence.
This is a role for someone who can combine warmth with tenacity. You will need to build trust, hold boundaries, stay calm when progress is uneven, and bring creative energy to complex situations. In return, Single Homeless Project (SHP) will support you to keep developing your practice, deepen your knowledge and grow your career in a values-led organisation committed to ending homelessness.
About you:
- You know that ending rough sleeping takes more than a housing offer — and you bring the patience, skill and persistence to help people turn accommodation into something safe, stable and lasting.
- You can build trust with people who may have every reason to be wary of services, using consistency, honesty and clear boundaries to keep support moving forward.
- You understand how trauma, mental health, substance use, offending, poverty and exclusion can shape someone’s choices, risks and relationship with support.
- You are confident turning complex needs into clear action, from assessments and support plans to risk management, case notes and practical housing sustainment work.
- You are a strong advocate and creative problem solver, able to work with partners, challenge barriers and keep pushing for progress when systems are difficult to navigate.

About the role:
At the heart of Camden’s response to street homelessness, the Rough Sleeping Outreach & Hub Service works across streets, transport hubs and a central support hub to ensure that no one is left facing rough sleeping alone. This is an integrated, borough-wide service focused on early engagement, reducing harm and supporting people to move away from the streets towards safety, accommodation and longer-term stability.
As an Outreach Worker, you’ll be a consistent and trusted presence for people sleeping rough or at risk of rough sleeping. Working flexibly across street outreach and hub-based support on a rota basis, you’ll build meaningful relationships, carry out trauma-aware assessments and coordinate practical support that helps people take their next steps.
You’ll work within a 'No Wrong Door' approach, supporting people wherever and however they engage. That might mean meeting someone early in the morning on outreach, supporting them to access the hub later that day, or working alongside partners to remove barriers that have kept them excluded in the past.
This is a role with variety, challenge and real impact. You’ll respond to complex situations, manage risk thoughtfully, and support people through moments of crisis and change. The work can be unpredictable and includes early, late and weekend shifts as part of a 7-day rota – but you won’t be doing it alone.

If you’re motivated by persistence, partnership and meaningful outcomes, this is a chance to grow your skills while helping others move forward with dignity and hope.
About you:
- You’re motivated by helping people move away from harm and towards stability. You understand that progress isn’t always linear, and you bring patience, persistence and empathy to your work.
- You use a trauma-informed, strengths-based approach and can stay calm and professional when situations are complex. You balance compassion with clear boundaries and use your judgement to manage risk and safeguarding effectively.
- You work well in a fast-moving environment. You can manage competing priorities, work independently in the community and keep clear, accurate records that support continuity and accountability.
- You value partnership and collaboration. You’re confident working alongside housing, health, substance use and community safety services to deliver joined-up support and meaningful outcomes.
- You’re flexible and reliable, and comfortable working across a rota that includes early and late shifts, evenings and weekends. You’re open to working both on outreach and within a hub setting, adapting to service need while keeping people at the centre of what you do.

For 50 years, SportsAid has been backing the next generation of athletes.
But we're only just getting started.
As we launch our new organisational strategy and celebrate our 50th anniversary, we're entering an exciting new chapter—one that will see us grow our impact, strengthen lifelong relationships with athletes and supporters, and build one of the UK's most engaged sporting communities.
We're looking for an ambitious and experienced fundraising leader to help make that happen.
Our Vision
From potential to personal best – whatever your story.
We want a future where talented athletes can pursue their ambitions, whatever their background, circumstances or income.
A future where talent is not lost because life gets in the way, and where support comes early, consistently and without conditions.
Our Mission
SportsAid exists to champion and support the next generation of athletes to fulfil their potential in sport and in life.
We invest early. We back ambition. We bring together partners, supporters and alumni to provide financial help, trusted guidance and belief—particularly at the moments when staying in sport becomes hardest.
For five decades, we have stood alongside athletes when success was uncertain and outcomes were unknown. Today, our ambition goes further.
We believe talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not. That's why we're strengthening support for athletes and families, amplifying athlete voices, building lifelong communities of athletes and alumni, and working with partners to create a sporting system where potential—not background—shapes opportunity.
The Opportunity
This is far more than a community fundraising role.
You'll lead the development of SportsAid's Community Fundraising & Engagement programme at a pivotal moment in our history, helping shape the future of one of the UK's most respected sports charities.
Working closely with the Head of Fundraising and Communications and as part of an ambitious leadership team, you'll develop and deliver a bold community fundraising strategy, grow sustainable unrestricted income and create outstanding supporter experiences that inspire people to back the next generation.
You'll also provide strategic leadership for our growing alumni engagement programme, ensuring former SportsAid athletes remain connected through mentoring, advocacy, storytelling, volunteering and fundraising.
Whether it's launching new fundraising products, growing challenge events, building partnerships with schools, clubs and communities, or developing innovative supporter journeys, you'll have the freedom to build something with lasting impact.
About You
You're someone who enjoys creating as much as delivering.
You combine strategic thinking with a practical, hands-on approach and know that exceptional fundraising is built on exceptional relationships.
You may currently be leading community fundraising, supporter engagement or individual giving within a charity and be looking for the opportunity to shape a programme with genuine national potential.
You'll bring:
· Significant experience developing successful community fundraising or supporter engagement programmes.
· A track record of growing sustainable income and building long-term supporter relationships.
· Experience leading people, developing strategy and delivering results.
· Strong commercial awareness and an entrepreneurial mindset.
· Excellent relationship-building, influencing and communication skills.
· A passion for creating outstanding supporter experiences.
Most importantly, you'll be excited by the opportunity to build, innovate and help shape the future of SportsAid.
Why Join SportsAid?
There has never been a more exciting time to join us.
As we celebrate our 50th anniversary, we're investing in ambitious plans to expand our fundraising, strengthen lifelong relationships with athletes and supporters, and increase our impact across the UK.
You'll join an ambitious, collaborative and values-led organisation with an engaged Board, a supportive leadership team and colleagues who genuinely care about our mission.
We offer:
· Salary of £50,000–£55,000 (pro rata if 0.8 FTE)
· Home-based or hybrid working
· Flexible working arrangements
· Private healthcare
