The Role
This is an exciting time to join Starlight. We already have considerable expertise across influence, insight and communications and a strong platform from which to build. Recent opportunities with broadcasters, parliamentarians and other influential audiences demonstrate the potential to take Starlight's voice further. The Head of Influence, Insight and Communications will bring these strands together, working with talented colleagues to spot, shape and amplify opportunities that advance our ambition to end preventable trauma in children's healthcare.
As we enter the next phase of Starlight's development, with our new strategy to end preventable trauma for children in healthcare, our focus is on increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of our influencing work. Our aim is to build on our strong existing capability, bringing together complementary specialist teams to create greater strategic impact, stronger external influence and an even more integrated approach to delivering our mission.
This new Influence, Insight and Communications role brings together the existing influencing, insight and communications teams, recognising the significant overlap between strategic communications, public affairs, campaigns, insight and organisational influence. The role will provide strategic leadership across these disciplines, enabling Starlight to connect research, lived experience, policy engagement and communications around organisational priorities, and maximise our external impact.
The role will sit within the Play in Healthcare team, reflecting the shift in emphasis of our communications and marketing activity towards influencing, campaigning and systems change. It plays a critical part in making children's experiences visible, amplifying the voices of children and families, and building understanding of why emotionally safe healthcare matters.
Reporting to the Director of Play in Healthcare, and working closely with the Director of Income Generation & Engagement, the postholder will bring together Starlight's existing expertise in influence, insight and communications to translate evidence and lived experience into compelling narratives, policy positions, thought leadership and strategic communications that strengthen Starlight's reputation, influence decision-makers and support organisational growth. The postholder will identify, shape and amplify opportunities to position Starlight as a trusted voice on children's healthcare experiences and the role of play in supporting children's wellbeing, development and emotional safety.

About Better Society Capital (BSC)
Better Society Capital (BSC) is the UK's leading social impact investor. Our 2026–2030 strategy is to positively impact 15–20 million lives by mobilising £20–30 billion of capital into investible solutions that tackle some of the UK's biggest social and environmental challenges — across housing, economic opportunity, climate & energy and health.
Investing BSC’s capital is an essential tool for delivering those goals, using our leading impact investment approach to identify social issues and business models that can tackle inequality and change millions of lives.
The Opportunity
This is an opportunity to play a leading role in shaping markets for impact and to contribute to the success of one of the leading impact investors in the UK, while furthering your career in impact investment. Lending is one of the three core asset classes that BSC invests in, connecting £bns of capital with thousands of enterprises throughout the UK, while contributing to BSC’s sustainable portfolio returns. It is led by a dedicated team whose remit comprises five sub-asset classes: Bank Equity, Direct Lending, Blended Finance, Outcomes and Renewables. The team is focused on mobilising capital for key priorities in BSC’s strategy – what we call our “Opportunity Areas”, including the UK government’s flagship Better Futures Fund – as well as leading on several market wide initiatives such as the Blended Finance Collective.
As Asset Class Lead for Lending, you will own how this capability achieves BSC’s mission: setting and delivering an investment strategy that serves BSC’s strategic priorities and portfolio returns; building the market of the future so that more capital flows to the opportunities with the greatest potential to tackle inequalities for millions of people in the UK; and leading a high-performing team that both executes a leading impact investment process with excellence and acts as an agent of change in the system. You'll report to one of BSC's Co-Chief Investment Officers and sit on BSC's Senior Management Team.
This is a role for someone who combines the discipline and judgement of an excellent investor with the desire and drive to change systems so that more capital is deployed for impact. You have the vision, relationships and expertise to devise strategies that shift how government, investors and enterprises think about lending for impact, and to find, execute and manage the deals that deliver this ambitious vision.
What Success Looks Like

•You have a clear, ambitious investment strategy for Lending that your team, your peers on the Investment Leadership Team, and the Investment Committee understand and that aligns with the overall strategic and investment objectives of BSC.
•You are making investment decisions that balance financial return, systems change and social impact, with a pipeline of deals you have helped originate, drawing on BSC’s track record, market insight and investment process.
•Your team is clear on expectations, feels supported to grow, and executes with pace and rigour.
•You are a trusted voice on the Investment Leadership Team, contributing beyond your own remit to building a world class impact investment team.
•You have established yourself as a credible and influential voice in the lending sector, building relationships with the key institutions and fund managers.
Over time
•Lending at BSC continues to have a rigorous investment process that supports excellence in investment decision making and execution, portfolio performance that meets BSC's return and impact objectives and a high quality future opportunity set.
•You have deepened your external relationships — with government, institutional investors, co-investors and enterprises — that genuinely shift how capital flows to your sub-asset classes; policymakers and investors seek your view.
•Your team has grown in capability, confidence and ambition; people want to work with you because they know they'll be stretched and developed.
•BSC, and the wider market, can point to lending models or partnerships you've built that others replicate at scale, contributing meaningfully to BSC’s strategic goals.
Key Responsibilities
Investment strategy and delivery
•Set the investment strategy and approach for Lending, defining how it delivers systems change, social impact and financial return in line with BSC's strategy, supported by a high quality investment process.
•Build and deliver a pipeline of compelling and aligned investment opportunities across the lending sub-asset classes.
•Own and present investment recommendations to the Investment Committee, supporting your Investment Directors and Investment Managers.
•Manage portfolio performance with Impact Investment Management, Middle Office and Finance, including borrower/fund relationships and special situations.
•Contribute a portfolio-wide perspective to BSC's annual strategic asset allocation process.
•Participate in Investment and Performance Committee, Valuation Committee and other investment governance forums.
Market building and external leadership
•Be the voice of Lending at BSC — building a compelling narrative, internally and externally, that positions BSC as the partner and thought leader of choice.
•Be an agent for systems change, working with Policy, Investor Partnerships & Advisory and Communications to shift market conditions, influence policy and unlock capital at scale.
•Build and steward strategic relationships with government, institutional investors and the social sector.
•Lead significant cross-organisational projects that contribute to BSC’s 2030 strategic goals, combining investment with BSC’s other capabilities such as policy and investor advisory.
•Represent BSC through speaking, writing and industry engagement that builds your and BSC's credibility and influence in the field.
Team leadership
•Lead your team to deliver BSC's goals and your investment strategy, with clear priorities that connect daily work to mission.
•Design your team's structure and ways of working, and own resource allocation and budget for the Lending Asset Class.
•Develop your team's skills and careers through long-term development plans, strong performance management and intentional talent development.
•Contribute to Investment Leadership Team decisions on development planning, talent standards, and succession across the investment team.
•Build a diverse team where different perspectives and backgrounds are a genuine strength.
Organisational leadership and partnership
•Participate as a full member of the Investment Leadership Team and BSC's Senior Management Team, contributing to decisions and culture beyond Lending.
•Partner with Policy, Investor Partnerships & Advisory, Communications, Legal, Finance and People & Talent to deliver organisational goals.
•Lead or contribute to cross-organisational initiatives that advance BSC's mission. Model the behaviours we expect of leaders at BSC: sharing information proactively, giving and receiving feedback as a habit, and treating collective decisions as genuinely collective.
Skills and Experience
Essential Qualifications & Experience
•A strong track record and understanding of credit investment, ideally with some exposure to one or more of: lending to social purpose organisations including social enterprise and charity lending, blended finance, impact private credit, renewable energy lending or social outcomes partnerships.
•Experience leading and developing a team of investors, with accountability for portfolio performance and originating new opportunities in an area of investment.
•A demonstrated ability to build relationships that shift outcomes in the system — with government, institutional & mission driven investors and social sectors — even if you haven't held all of these at once before.
Desirable Qualifications & Experience
•Experience operating across the public, private and social sectors, and translating complex or technical points for different audiences.
•Experience navigating investment governance and committee processes at a senior level.
•A track record of structuring deals or partnerships that have shifted market conditions beyond the transaction itself – by unlocking follow on capital, building infrastructure or proving a model that changed what others were willing to fund.
•Direct experience in social impact investment is an advantage but we are also open to strong candidates bringing relevant experience from an adjacent background, for example, development or sustainable finance, public finance and institutional investors with a strong interest in impact.
Skills, Abilities and Attributes
Strong alignment to BSC’s Values & Behaviours
•A genuine connection to BSC's mission — tackling inequality and unlocking capital for lasting social and environmental impact in the UK.
•Motivated by systems change – and strong strategic thinker who thinks in systems, not only transactions: you consider the wider system and its key actors, understand the barriers to change, and find the inflexion points where investment can shift the whole market.
•Comfortable holding both ends of the job: rigorous, technical investment judgement and the outward-facing skill to build partnerships and shift market thinking. Resilient and realistic about the pace of change in impact-led capital — bold in ambition, grounded in delivery.
•Energised by ambiguity and by building things that don't yet exist, rather than executing an established playbook.
•Driven by curiosity, a learning mindset and strong commitment to growth and development.
•A genuine team player: you actively seek out challenge, share credit and seek to build collaborative partnerships that bring the best skills and experience to deliver on mission.
Our mission is to grow the amount of money invested in tackling social issues and inequalities in the UK.

Help transform mental health support in Sutton while building something truly special.
Use your fundraising talent to make a lasting difference to thousands of local people and help shape the future of a pioneering mental health charity.
Part-time Community based Fundraising Manager 2 days pw
Salary £35k pro rata
About us
For nearly 30 years Sutton Mental Health Foundation has been a refuge for people in Sutton, Surrey, whose mental health has had an impact on their lives. Over this time, the Foundation has helped thousands of people navigate their way through their mental health challenges and in 2025 we saw an 18% increase in demand for our services.
From our unique and pioneering centre in the London Borough of Sutton, we provide a wide array of services aimed at promoting mental wellbeing, resilience and recovery from mental distress and ultimately, keeping people safe. Sutton Mental Health Foundation provides a place where people can feel safe and supported in tackling their mental health challenges and we provide these services 365 days a year.
Our crucial work
The Foundation is a hidden gem of innovation, with a pioneering ‘Intentional Peer Support’ approach at its heart, which trains former and current service users to provide support to individuals facing similar mental health challenges to those they have faced themselves. The first contact from local people experiencing severe anxiety or distress often comes through telephone calls or through our Crisis Café, which operates every evening in person from 6.30pm to 11.00 pm, 365 days a year, and on the phone or on- line at other times. This is where people can receive support and learn about the range of support options the Foundation provides.
Our counselling service can help local people tackle a wide range of issues affecting their mental health.
Our Belmont Connect service is a place to socialise, meet new people and receive support in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. You can also join one of our classes or drop-in sessions. These may be art-based, music-themed, or centred around activities such as gardening. We aim to offer a range of weekly activities that cater to different interests and encourage social connection and wellbeing. In the winter our In Your Corner Sunday service offers lunches from midday onwards, and we have year round specialist support sessions such as the Sutton Hearing Voices Group, which help individuals explore different ways to deal with hearing voices.
We have been very successful in securing funding for our work from the local authority and from our local NHS Trust, but we have now reached a point where we want to raise new funds to innovate and expand our services, hence creating this new role of Community Fundraising Manager.
