Using Anonymous Recruitment
This organisation is using Anonymous Recruitment to reduce bias in the first stages of the hiring process. Submit your application as normal and our system will anonymise it for you. Your personal information will be hidden until the recruiter contacts you.
As Grants and Outreach Officer, you will play a key role in driving Electrical Safety First’s mission to reduce deaths, injuries, and accidents caused by electricity, particularly for the most vulnerable in society.
You will help manage the Charity’s grant scheme programme, which distributes £1,000,000 annually to fund community-based initiatives that raise awareness of electrical safety and reduce risks for those who face the most danger. Through this, you will help empower local organisations to create tangible change in their communities.
In addition to helping administer the grant scheme, you’ll support the Charity’s outreach initiatives, working closely with the Senior Grants and Outreach Officer to identify opportunities to expand the charity’s reach and partnerships.
The charity’s outreach work goes beyond working with grant partners to maximise impact. It also involves identifying and developing partnerships with organisations that enable us to reach the most at-risk and hard-to-reach groups, working with them as trusted intermediaries, and supporting the development of longer-term, sustainable projects that deliver lasting impact.
This includes proactively engaging with grant recipients and partners, visiting funded projects to see first-hand the difference our work is making in educating people and saving lives, raising the profile of the charity, and ensuring outreach activity supports wider organisational objectives, including policy and public affairs priorities.
As this role sits within the Public Affairs and Policy team, there will be opportunities to connect grant and outreach work to the charity’s wider UK public affairs activity. This may include supporting work on key issues such as product safety, housing, and net zero, and occasional opportunities to support the team’s engagement with political stakeholders.
This is a unique opportunity to combine grant management and outreach, while gaining experience in public affairs, all with the goal of helping protect lives and making a real difference at a national and local level.

This is a hybrid role, with the office located in Borough, a short walk from London Bridge. There are expectations for travel around the UK as part of supporting grant recipients and outreach work.

Building on foundations first laid in 1924, our Holidays Team now supports volunteer Overall Leaders and core teams to run approximately 60 Ventures and Falcon holidays each year, reaching around 2,500 children and young people.
As we see encouraging signs of renewed spiritual openness among young people, we are strengthening the ministry for this next season by investing in healthy leadership, healthy operations and healthy finances. Our c.2,000 volunteer leaders are at the heart of this work, and we recognise both their immense value and the growing challenges surrounding volunteer recruitment, retention and succession. Overall Leaders consistently identify burnout and the difficulty of passing on the baton as key threats to the future sustainability of the ministry.

If that sounds like you, we would love to hear from you.
Location: This role will ideally be based in CPAS offices in Coventry. CPAS has a flexible working policy, that may allow some working from home, subject to making an application in line with organisation policy.

This is a part-time appointment of 3 days / 22.2 hours per week (0.6 FTE).
This post will be subject to a Basic DBS check, and satisfactory completion of a Declaration of Suitability form. You must also have evidence of your ongoing right to work in the UK.
