We need an outstanding fundraising function to be the engine for that ambition.

This person will be an outstanding fundraising all-rounder with strategic vision, creativity, limitless enthusiasm and determination, and the ability to not only inspire and lead their own Fundraising Team brilliantly well, but also to work collaboratively and effectively with other teams from across our charity as well.

If that’s you, in return we offer a competitive salary and generous employer pension; an informal, family-friendly and inclusive culture in a newly refurbished central-London office; an absolute commitment to your personal development; and the opportunity to work with some of the most passionate and ‘can do’ people in the charity world.

We want to help you to do amazing things, we want you to be as ambitious for yourself as you are for our charity, and we want you to have fun and challenge yourself at work.

The Royal United Services Institute (RUSI) is one of the world’s leading research think-tanks in the fields of defence and security. The Centre for Financial Crime & Security Studies (CFCS) at RUSI is seeking to appointment a programme manager.

Over the past five years, RUSI’s Centre for Financial Crime & Security Studies has grown to be a pre-eminent global financial crime-focused research programme. As the CFCS approaches its fifth anniversary, the range of research we undertake, the projects we implement, the geographic footprint and the high profile we have developed means the programme is in need of a dedicated programme manager.

The successful candidate would play a central role in:

• CFCS business development;
• CFCS events organisation;
• CFCS project activity and budget management;
• Maintaining and developing the CFCS stakeholder community
  • Developing contact and mailing database
  • Relationships with funders
  • Contacts with key domestic and international partners; and
• Growing the CFCS programme’s media profile and managing media relationships in coordination with RUSI’s Media/Communications team, including enhancing the CFCS social media footprint, developing the CFCS media strategy and identifying new opportunities for CFCS research promotion

PERSON SPECIFICATIONS

This role is designed for a dedicated project manager with an interest in our area of research; this opening should not be viewed as a position offering future research opportunities.

In particular, the successful candidate will demonstrate a track record of:

• Managing programmes or projects in a similar academic environment or a comparable, professional business;
• Building and managing budgets;
• Seeking and developing new business and/or funding opportunities;
• Organising and hosting events; and
• Tracking and ensuring progress across a range of projects simultaneously (evidence of familiarity with project management software would be an advantage although not critical)

This role may suit a candidate returning from a career break who is seeking a London-based opportunity to re-enter the workforce in a stimulating, high-profile and highly-relevant field of domestic and global policy.

This new role will offer the successful candidate an exciting opportunity to quickly become a central driver of the planned growth of the CFCS over the next 2-3 years, with a range of new and exciting projects likely to go live over the next few months.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

The Programme Manager will be a permanent, full-time position based in London. RUSI is able to offer flexible work arrangements.

The Programme Manager will report to the CFCS Director. Positions at this level are subject to a six-month probation period.  Some limited travel may be required, but this is not likely to be a key element of the role. All travel for work purposes will be at RUSI’s expense.

The applicant must have the right to work in the UK.

EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES AND VALUES

At RUSI you will be appreciated and valued. Our stakeholders, transactions, and projects are international and diverse, so we work hard to create inclusive teams that support our efforts and each other.

• Yassine Senghor – Client Account Manager – Public Sector

Hatch is in a really great position when it comes to corporate partnerships.

Our programmes are a great fit for corporate funders, because our work is about using business as a force for social change.  We already have good relationships with big banks, multinational law firms and major consulting groups. We’ve received significant multi-year CSR funding, and shown we can deliver results. We have an engaged network of Ambassadors and Trustees who can broker introductions. And we have businesses fired up to offer us volunteering hours. 

We’re proud of where we are, but we know that we can do more. 

That’s where you come in.

Can you bring a systematic approach to this work, and take responsibility for it away from the CEO? 

You’ll keep track of our relationships and what we need to do to maintain and where possible, grow them. That means making the most out of existing partnerships as well as finding and developing new opportunities. You’ll do this in a way that is future-proofed, so that other people can pick up where you left off in the multi-year process of on-boarding new corporate supporters. You’ll work to transform our position from that of a traditional grant recipient, doing good at arm’s length, to an active partner in a two-way relationship. That also means you’ll spend a good chunk of your time managing really rewarding volunteering programmes for our partners’ staff, often with support from our partners volunteering coordinators. 

In a typical week, you might be:

• meeting with our Programme Managers to make sure we’re getting the most out of our collaboration with corporate partners, and their staff
• checking in with current volunteer mentors, to make sure they are properly supported 
• on-boarding new volunteer mentors, and keeping their details in a database so they can easily be matched with future opportunities
• running a periodic training session for volunteer mentors, so they know how to participate effectively in the relationship
• meeting with the volunteer coordinator from a current partner, to give them a progress update on the year’s programme
• calling our main client contact or an existing supporter to find out if they’re happy with how things are going and if there is more we can do for them
• researching potential partners who would be suitable and interested to work with us to either support our Female Founders or our Social Entrepreneurs
• developing, pitching and negotiating with new high-value partners (many of whom are big corporates), from first contact with gatekeepers right the way to presenting a proposal at board level
• brainstorming with the programme delivery teams to explore how our courses can evolve to meet the needs of our partners (without sacrificing the needs of our entrepreneurs)
• contributing towards impact measurement by calculating the number of volunteering hours used in a period, or creating a case study for one of our entrepreneurs
• keeping the information in our CRM (Salesforce) up to date and improving the way we use it to record data
• taking part in Hatch’s practices of continual learning, experimentation and reflection

About You

• You are empathic and are energised by building effective relationships  – maybe you’ve held a fundraising role, or worked in account management in the for-profit or not-for-profit sector
• You understand how to build and manage high-value partnerships, including developing contact with senior leaders – you would know how to get a meeting with a Client Partner at a Big Four firm 
• You can express yourself compellingly in writing and speech, and have superb presentation skills
• You are not intimidated by the idea of having a big financial target to hit: we’d like you to help us secure £250,000 of new business each year
• It’s an advantage if you already have your own network in the corporate fundraising sector

About Hatch Enterprise

Hatch Enterprise works with entrepreneurs from underrepresented communities to grow smart ideas into successful businesses. We are one of the leading community enterprise charities in the UK and we have grown 25% year on year through increased support from our partners, supporters and funders. In our first five years over 500 people have taken part in our programmes. Our ambition is to be a catalyst for 1000 businesses by 2020.

Last year, cooperating with Peabody, we launched 55 East, a coworking and event space in Elephant and Castle. It’s a place for entrepreneurs to test their business ideas, and it’s also our beautiful new home.

Benefits

We’re not typical of the third sector. As you would expect from a charity focused on teaching start-up skills, we think and act like a business. We are constantly looking for ways to improve and innovate, and our programmes are run by entrepreneurs, for entrepreneurs.

We care about nurturing our people and giving them the things they need to succeed. You’ll get a desktop Mac in our funky, cheerful, plant-filled office, with free tea and coffee. And, although we can’t afford to pay you like the private sector, we can offer you a generous holiday allowance (29 days plus bank holidays) and an annual training budget. We are also supportive of part-time working, and have many people on the team who work 4 days a week.

This job is offered as permanent role with a full time salary of £40,000.

Equal Opportunities

We believe business can be a force for good. Our mission is to increase diversity among business owners – and we want to do the same for our team. We are committed to representing a wider cross-section of society than a typical start-up, and we know that means we have to make an effort to understand and accommodate different people’s needs.

If you’ve read this far, and you like the sound of the job, but you’re worried you don’t quite fit the requirements – we’d love it if you went ahead and applied.

Do you want to make a real and lasting difference to the lives of lesbian, gay, bi and trans people?

For the last thirty years, Stonewall has campaigned for equality and fought discrimination at every turn. Today it is the UK’s largest charity for lesbian, gay, bi and trans people. A key part of our success is our Diversity Champions programme, which encourages companies to make their workplaces and practices more inclusive. We work with over 750 organisations across the UK and150 multinational employers globally, all of whom share our core belief in the power of a workplace that is truly equal, and through them we've helped create inclusive and accepting environments across the public, private and third sectors.

Join us as Head of Private Sector Membership Programmes and you’ll lead the strategic planning, delivery and growth of the programme, with the aim of securing 20 per cent growth this financial year. Managing a portfolio of high-profile UK and global accounts, your focus will be on client acquisition, satisfaction and retention, and working with Executive and Board level stakeholders to deliver meaningful organisational change.

Reporting to Director level and managing a team of 13, you’ll evaluate and improve the efficiency of the current memberships programme, and highlight new opportunities, including bespoke and consultancy work to engage SMEs. Ensuring that programmes are evidenced based, you’ll work with project teams to develop customer facing resources, benchmarking indices and recognition mechanisms, and market and deliver conferences and workshops. 

Your remit will also cover the programme in the private, public and third sectors in Northern Ireland, a collaborative project with the Rainbow Project Northern Ireland, where you’ll grow the programme, the revenue and the staff team. You’ll also work with our offices in Cymru and Scotland, and our International team, to ensure alignment of their programmes and that learning is shared, and opportunities for change maximised. 

To be effective in the role you’ll need proven experience of devising and delivering membership programmes and partnerships at a national level and an understanding of the challenges and opportunities for LGBT inclusion in the private sector. Motivated by targets - and with a track record of achieving them - you’ll be experienced in managing and developing multidisciplinary teams and in influencing decision makers to deliver change. Your financial acumen will dovetail with your commercial thinking, the ability to manage budgets, developing sustainable income streams and preparing financial reports. 

To help bring your skills and experience to delivering organisational change, please complete and return an application and recruitment analysis form by 9.30am on the 23rd September 2019. Interviews will follow from the 30th September 2019.
