The Discover DeCrypt Trustees wish to appoint a self-employed fundraising consultant to undertake fundraising to achieve at a minimum the matched funding target (circa £92k) for submission of The National Lottery Heritage Fund Round 2 bid for The Sanctuary Project in St Mary de Crypt Church, Gloucester. The work will need to be carried out between July 2024 and July 2025 with all matched funding pledged by that end date and any surplus funding contributing to unrestricted reserves.
Introduction Discover DeCrypt undertook a major Heritage Fund project between Jan 2018 and March 2022. This capital project saw the reimagining of the church and adjoining Tudor schoolroom buildings. The project saw the Victorian pews removed (and repurposed), a lift (sympathetic to the buildings) installed, new toilet facilities, new heating system, new fire and intruder system, new lighting scheme and a new kitchen. Underfloor heating was installed within the nave and a new floor laid. The schoolroom was made safe and usable as it had reached the point where it was unsafe for the public to access. There was new interpretation in both the church and schoolroom.
An important aspect of this project was community outreach as the buildings sit within the city centre and had lost much of the original congregation and community. After the initial capital phase, three years of operational support was designed to help embed the charity within the community through volunteer recruitment, workshops, activities, concerts, art exhibitions and theatre. The church has also grown over this period, with regular services, weddings, funerals, and christenings.
The Sanctuary Project is the next phase of the Discover DeCrypt Story. It will see the conservation and interpretation of important Mediaeval and Tudor Wall paintings, Mediaeval stonework, and Victorian stained-glass windows. As well as the conservation work, the Sanctuary area and the elements within it will be researched and interpreted for the visitors to understand and enjoy. A very important part of this project is community engagement and audience development including giving students and the wider public access to conservation and heritage skills.
This role is funded by The National Heritage Lottery Fund thanks to National Lottery players.
Please Submit a CV and Cover Letter explaining why you would be a great fir for this role.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.

Probation Period: 4 weeks
Gross Salary: £22,310 per annum
Location: Fauna & Flora, Cambridge
Fauna & Flora works to conserve marine and coastal ecosystems and is committed to mobilising action from the grassroots up to reverse ocean decline. As part of our approach, we seek to both inform and influence policies and practice affecting the marine environment – such as those relating to fishery reform and to illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing. In Central America, small-scale fishing operations, which provide vital sustenance and cultural heritage for coastal communities, coexist alongside semi-industrial fleets, which with their technological prowess, wield a formidable presence in some area. Effective management and policies are essential to ensure that fishing practices remain sustainable, balancing the needs of coastal communities with the long-term health of marine ecosystems.
This internship offers a unique opportunity to gain valuable research experience in the field of marine conservation and fisheries management. You will use your Spanish language skills to conduct a comprehensive desk review and preliminary comparative assessment of policy frameworks in both Spanish and English. You will develop practical research and analytical skills while deepening your understanding of the complexities surrounding marine resource management in the region. Engaging with a variety of stakeholders and synthesising insights from our in-country staff and local partners will enhance your communication and networking abilities, providing you with a holistic perspective on conservation challenges and opportunities at local and national levels.
Moreover, by contributing to the identification of successful case studies and areas for intervention, you will play a vital role in shaping effective conservation strategies, thus making a tangible impact on biodiversity conservation efforts in Central America. Overall, this internship offers a rewarding learning experience that will equip you with valuable skills and insights for your future career in conservation.
Our offices are located in The David Attenborough Building in central Cambridge, just a few minutes walk from glorious historic buildings and museums, the picturesque River Cam, the central market and shopping centre, and a host of cafes and restaurants.
Note that this internship has been designed to create a professional development opportunity for people who are new to the conservation sector. Therefore, applicants should have less than two years paid or unpaid experience in the conservation sector (not including academic work). In return, the role offers the opportunity to work within a ground-breaking and entrepreneurial organisation, at the forefront of global conservation.

About us:
Established in 2021, Opportunity Green is a fast-growing not-for-profit organisation that helps to identify and unlock opportunities to tackle climate change. We build ambitious coalitions, support climate vulnerable countries in international negotiations and find innovative legal pathways to fight climate change.
Our legal team works on climate legal actions relating to the aviation, shipping, buildings, steel, and agriculture sectors in the UK, EU, and internationally. We provide strategic legal analysis to support decarbonisation in these sectors; undertake legal interventions, including legal challenges and litigation; and undertake legal advocacy, including submissions to international courts, states, and the United Nations.
We are now looking for a Senior Legal Manager to build our work on strategic legal interventions to help drive sustainable finance flows and systems across our sectoral focus areas. Our objective is to use legal levers to ensure that finance flows are directed to projects and activities that are aligned with a 1.5°C pathway. By using the law, we believe we can effect change in the operation of financial markets, bringing about systemic change in the activities and operations of these sectors.
What’s the role?
Reporting to Opportunity Green’s Legal Director, you will be leading our sustainable finance legal interventions, with an initial focus on the aviation and shipping sectors, and you will be responsible for developing our sustainable finance workstream.
You will be joining at an exciting time, as the team takes forward various legal actions and looks to develop new interventions. You will be working at the cutting edge of climate law in new and emerging areas, and will be required to identify and develop strategic legal action ideas that could help to drive change across the full legal lifecycle, from delivering policy-level change, to crystallizing the financial risk of investment in inadequate climate action, to shifting the investment profile of ineffective transition activities through bringing corporate accountability and greenwashing actions.
You will be responsible for the day-to-day development and running of cases and other non-contentious legal actions, including coordination with external counsel where relevant. You will also work closely with a wide range of NGOs with technical, scientific, and campaigning expertise.
We are particularly interested in applications from those with a background in financial law and litigation.
Our legal team is already achieving outsized impact with a great team spirit. We are looking for someone who is analytical and organised, but who is also a people person with great communication skills, a collaborative approach and a passion for fighting climate change. Opportunity Green is a growing organisation so you will also be involved in supporting other aspects of work, such as contributing to funding proposals, developing campaign strategy, providing legal input into communications, and taking part in our committees.
About the candidate:
We are looking for a candidate with:
· A passion for using their legal skills to direct finance flows away from ineffective solutions and towards sustainable activities, who is brave enough to try new things and persuasive enough to convince others to follow their leadership.
Desirable skills and experience:
We do not expect any candidate to have all the skills listed below but rather we look for transferable skills and potential as well as past experience.
· A high level of self-motivation and commitment to Opportunity Green’s values, ethos and purpose.
· Qualification as a solicitor or barrister (practising or non-practising).
· Experience in litigation, ideally in the financial and regulatory sectors.
· Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously and to manage other team members.
· An ability to see solutions to complex problems through a creative legal lens.
· Experience of writing high-quality legal analysis and/or court submissions.
· Excellent attention to detail and an ability to work with technical and legal material, but also an ability to think strategically and not get bogged down in detail when that is unhelpful.
· Excellent written and oral communication skills.
· Ability to work both independently and collaboratively and interact with lawyers and non-lawyers from around the world with kindness and respect.
· Passion for stopping climate change.
· Excellent time management, and the ability to meet deadlines, logically tackle problems and set and communicate priorities.
Diversity and inclusion:
Diversity and inclusion are important principles at Opportunity Green. We believe that diversity and inclusion make teams stronger and more effective. We are committed to fair and equitable employment practices, and we are striving to ensure that a variety of voices and experiences are included in our organisation. Our commitment to diversity and our parental leave policy are available to view on our website, here.
We will consider all applicants who meet most or all of the competencies regardless of their identity or background. That said, we know that diverse candidates may be reluctant to apply for jobs where they don’t meet 100% of the criteria outlined in the job description. We encourage anyone to apply who can demonstrate the variety of skills and experiences relevant to meeting the requirements of this role.
We recognise that many diverse experiences and perspectives are not represented in our current workforce, and are seriously underrepresented across the non-profit sector in general, and as such, we particularly welcome applications from people with disabilities, people of colour, people from marginalised backgrounds, and members of the LGBTQIA+ communities. We will use positive action under the Equality Act 2010 to appoint from these groups if two candidates are equally qualified. We also value flexible working and are open to those who would want to work part-time in this role.
What we offer
The successful candidate will be offered an annual salary of £60,000 plus 10% employer-contributed pension. Please note that Opportunity Green has fixed salary scales, with the possibility of step increases with strong performance. When hiring we always hire at the bottom of a band and do not enter negotiations with new employees as negotiations have been historically shown to disadvantage women and minorities.
We take our team’s well-being and professional development seriously. In addition to a competitive salary, we offer:
· A commitment to work/life balance, with a 4-day work week at 28 hours
· A generous holiday entitlement of 20 days’ holiday per year, plus bank holidays and office closure between Christmas and New Year’s that does not count towards your holiday entitlement (and expectation that you fully disconnect when taking time off)
· A market-leading pension of 10%
· A progressive parental leave policy, including 26 weeks’ paid leave for both parents
· Lots of flexibility within a hybrid working arrangement, with regular opportunities to come together as a team
· Support for your professional development as part of Opportunity Green, with a budget to support your learning & development plus opportunities to lead projects, publish content, learn from experts, work directly with policymakers and stakeholders, and take part in conferences and events.
However, it is important to note that while this role is permanent, employment is always reliant on Opportunity Green continuing to receive philanthropic support from our funders, which we expect every member of the team to play their part in working towards.
