At Coach Core, we believe in the power of diverse perspectives. If you come from a different industry or background and bring fresh insights, innovative thinking, and a commitment to our mission, we encourage you to apply, regardless of not meeting all the criteria.

Our client is a group of independent registered charities driven by a mission to make philanthropy more convenient and efficient for their donors.

The organisation's clients are high/ultra-high net worth individuals with considerable assets dedicated to charitable giving. They will often work with private client advisors (lawyers, private bankers, wealth planners, accountants) to manage their wealth.

The organisation offer clients donor-advised funds (DAF) giving vehicles to individuals, family offices, and wealth managers. A donor-advised fund is a philanthropic fund established under an umbrella charity, such as our client, which administers the funds on behalf of the donor.

Prospectus is delighted to be working with the organisation to recruit a Grants Administration Analyst to join its busy and growing team based in the City of London.

Role Overview
This is an exciting moment to join the organisation at a time of significant growth. Our expanding Grants Team is building for scale, and in this role, you will contribute directly to our organisation's goal of making philanthropy more efficient for our donors. Our Grants Team is dedicated to managing a large volume of grants with exceptional precision, making this role pivotal in facilitating transactional grantmaking, distinct from the conventional grantmaking approach.

The position will be part of the Grants Team and will also work closely with the Operations Team, the Donor Relations Team, and the Development Team on grant-related activities. The role will also involve working closely with the organisation's US colleagues.

Key Responsibilities

• Grants Processing – supporting the Grants Team with the entire grantmaking process from grant recommendation (from the DAF donor) to grant payment (to the grantee).
• Grantmaking Compliance – ensuring grants made from the organisation are compliant with UK and UK/US charitable grantmaking rules.
• Subject Matter Expertise – supporting the Grants Team to be subject matter experts, both internally and externally, on all aspects of grantmaking activity for the organisation and providing appropriate communication to the other functions as necessary.

At Prospectus we invest in your journey as a candidate and are committed to supporting you with your application. We welcome all candidates to apply, regardless of age, sex/gender, disability, race, religion, sexual orientation or marital status.
