This is a key role focused on ensuring that strong, representative community voice, clear governance, and meaningful VCSE sector involvement are embedded from the outset.

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.

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!

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.
