It’s therefore an exciting time to join the Legacy and In-Memory fundraising team.

At Battersea, we value expertise. We recognise each candidate that applies to us will have a range of expertise they can offer us, so we want to hear about this in your own words. We understand the support that generative artificial intelligence (AI) software can offer but it can also lead to numerous applications presenting as generic and impersonal.

o A cohesive and collaborative approach to town centre events and activities;

o Market House playing a focal role in driving increased local and visitor footfall in the town centre; and

o Market House offering an exciting and attractive draw to local people, local and regional visitors and tourists

Who are Guts UK Charity?

Guts UK Charity is committed to a world where digestive conditions are better understood, better treated and everyone who lives with one gets the support they need. Too many people are suffering or dying in silence or alone. They don’t know where to turn for information or support, diagnosis takes too long for many, and treatment can often come too late.

We are the only UK charity that covers the entire digestive system. We raise vital awareness of digestive conditions, fund life-saving research, and provide patients and loved ones with expert information and support – we are informed by evidence and expertise, our community, and the patient voice. 

Our mission is simple: to improve the lives of millions of people affected by digestive conditions 

Events & Community Fundraising Manager

We are looking for an Events and Community Fundraising Manager, who will be responsible for growing income, supporter participation and long-term engagement across our events and community fundraising programmes. You will manage and develop our existing portfolio while identifying new and innovative opportunities for sustainable growth. This is a hands-on, strategic and creative role. You will be expected to take ownership, develop new ideas, use data and insight to inform decisions, and turn opportunities into practical fundraising activity.

You will join a small and ambitious fundraising team with an established portfolio of around 30 events and a range of community fundraising activities and partnerships, generating approximately £200,000 a year. You will have the opportunity to build on this foundation, developing new fundraising products, audiences and partnerships and improving the supporter experience.

We're hoping to find an experienced events and community fundraiser who can take the lead on their own portfolio, build strong relationships and enjoys working collaboratively in a small, fast-paced charity.

Location

We have offices in London and Huddersfield, both of which are easily accessible by public transport or road. We support hybrid working but attendance in the chosen office is required for a minimum of 1 day per week.

Please see the attached detail job pack for further information and how to apply. 

Could you help SoundCafe grow?

SoundCafe Leicester is a small, friendly and ambitious charity which gives people who are homeless, vulnerable or socially isolated a regular opportunity to sing, be creative, meet people and feel part of a community.

Our weekly sessions make a real difference to the people who attend. In 2024 we were honoured to receive the King’s Award for Voluntary Service.

We are now looking for a Part-Time Manager to help us build on that success. 

What will you do?

Working with our trustees, volunteers and partner organisations, you will help SoundCafe to:

● manage and develop our weekly creative cafe;

● support and encourage our volunteers;

● build relationships with partner organisations and funders;

● identify funding opportunities and contribute to grant applications;

● help develop SoundCafe;

● liase with, and support, the professional musician who leads our choir

● ensure our activities are well organised, inclusive and responsive to the people we support; and

● keep the trustees informed and involved

It is a varied role, with plenty of opportunity to use your existing skills and to develop new ones.

What are we looking for?

We are looking for someone who is organised, approachable, capable and committed to making things happen.

You will need good communication and interpersonal skills, the ability to work independently, and experience of managing people, projects, activities or services.

Most importantly, you will need to care about what SoundCafe is trying to achieve and be comfortable working with people from a wide range of backgrounds.

You don’t need to have done everything before; just have a foundation we can work together and build on.

Experience of the charity or voluntary sector, working with vulnerable adults, volunteer management, fundraising or grant applications would be useful, but these are desirable rather than essential.

Support to develop

We know that the right person may not be the finished article.

You will be supported by an experienced and approachable Board of Trustees, with expertise including HR, employment law, finance and governance. We can provide guidance and mentoring where appropriate and help you develop your knowledge and responsibilities as you grow into the role.

What matters most to us is your ability, judgement, enthusiasm and potential.

Why join SoundCafe?

This is a rewarding position combining ’hands-on’ where you are immersed in the activities, with an important managerial role in a small charity where you can see the difference your work makes.

You will have the flexibility to shape the role around your strengths, work closely with trustees and volunteers, and help determine the next chapter of a charity which has already achieved a great deal.

If you think you could make a difference, we’d like to hear from you.

The post is approximately 50% in Leicester and the balance working from home, subject to operational requirements.

We think it’s important that you get a good understanding of our very special charity meet those who attend, see the range of activities, and hear our choir, so shortlisted candidates will be invited to attend a Session on either the 5th or 12th October interviews will be held on the afternoon of the 12th October.

Please send your CV (no longer than four pages, please) and a short covering letter explaining why SoundCafe interests you and what you could bring to the role.

• Plan joined-up campaigns across social media, email, web and partner channels, including relevant LGBTQIA+ and diversity calendar moments.

• Keep our website and email communications current, grow audiences and use performance data to improve activity.

4. Content Capture & Creative Production

• Plan photography, video, testimonials and other content across services and events.

• Attend selected activities to capture or coordinate content, managing external creatives where needed.

• Maintain an organised asset library and ensure consent, safeguarding and privacy processes are followed.

• Develop targeted communications to increase participation and reach new and underrepresented audiences, including people outside major cities.

• Use feedback to make communications clearer, more accessible and effective.

About Global Canopy

Global Canopy is a data-driven not for profit delivering real transparency and accountability for market impacts on nature and people. Our special focus is on ending deforestation – an essential step in achieving urgent global goals on climate, nature and human rights.

Our platforms, data and insights are relied upon by Fortune 500 companies, major financial institutions, national and regional governments, and some of the most effective campaigning organisations worldwide. 

We work globally, with a focus on both forested regions (particularly across Latin America and South East Asia), and major consumer and financial markets (with a focus on Europe, the US, Singapore and China).

About Corporate Performance

A growing number of companies and financial institutions are seeking to mitigate their impacts on nature. But many have made commitments that are not being met, and others are failing to take any action at all.

We hold the most exposed companies and financial institutions to account through our Forest 500 project, by assessing their policies and performance.

With our suite of Deforestation-free Finance Guidance and a forthcoming new tool, DEFT Pathway, we provide tools and data for financial institutions and investors to support effective engagement with high-risk companies. We support the finance sector, policy makers and other stakeholders by providing market-leading data on deforestation and ESG metrics through Forest IQ.

About the Role

This is an exciting opportunity for an individual with experience in communications and/or marketing to become part of an accomplished and proactive team at the heart of the fight against market-driven deforestation and nature loss.

The Communications Officer will support the Communications Lead to deliver communications activity across the Corporate Performance programme, with responsibility for the day-to-day delivery and coordination of digital communications, including website content, newsletters, social media, webinars and media monitoring.

The role will work closely with programme colleagues, subject-matter experts and the wider Communications team to develop accurate, engaging and audience-focused content, and to ensure communications activity is delivered effectively, consistently and on time.

Finally – as we ask of all colleagues – you will contribute to a culture of kindness, collaboration, rigour and accountability in equal measure. You will share our conviction that it is not just what we do that matters in our working life, but how we do it too.

Ideally the successful candidate will be available to start in the first week of December.

Responsibilities

• Manage and publish content across Global Canopy’s websites, keeping content accurate, up to date, accessible and aligned with programme and organisational objectives.
• Coordinate and deliver newsletters and email communications, including drafting, building and sending Mailchimp campaigns, advising on email tactics and best practice, and monitoring campaign performance.
• Draft, edit and proofread communications content, including website copy, newsletter content, social media copy, webinar materials and other digital communications, working with subject-matter experts to translate technical information into clear and engaging content.
• Coordinate and support external Communications webinars, including publicity, invitations, communications materials, technical hosting, moderator and housekeeping materials, liaison with speakers and interpreters, and preparation and publication of webinar recordings.
• Monitor relevant communications, digital and sustainability trends and the external news landscape, identifying opportunities and recommending approaches that could strengthen Global Canopy’s communications.
• Support social media communications, including drafting copy, creating social share kits and maintaining communications resources, in collaboration with Communications Leads and the Digital Communications Designer.
• Conduct monthly and quarterly monitoring across media coverage, webinar engagement and Mailchimp analytics – maintaining media records, evaluating coverage and actively contributing as part of the Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) working group.
• Support the management of journalist lists, undertaking research for media outreach, and logging and evaluating media coverage.
