Capital finance manager jobs

About Us

Bridges Outcomes Partnerships (BOP) is a not-for-profit social enterprise that works alongside Government, community groups and specialist Delivery partners to design and deliver vital services that support people to improve their lives, in areas ranging from housing and employment to education and health & wellbeing.

The role of BOP spans project development (working with Government and others to design and launch the service), project management (coordinating the delivery phase, managing performance, and liaising with the various stakeholders) and project finance (funding the project until it starts to earn outcomes payments). Our own funding comes from a group of pioneering social investors, including The Office for Civil Society, Big Society Capital, Pilotlight, Trust for London, who, like us, are motivated by improving lives and changing the system for the better.

About the opportunity

This role creates a unique and exciting opportunity to support the delivery of a new multi-partner Domestic Abuse Service in Plymouth. Our partnership of local VCSE organisations brings together a strong coalition of expert partners to deliver impactful support and prevention with a clear focus on improving outcomes for people and systems affected by Domestic Abuse. The programme aims to provide community-based support, built on:

·A trusted, well-governed local partnership with deep roots in communities and statutory systems, delivering a cohesive and unified service for survivors.

·A whole-family, holistic model that integrates advocacy, behaviour change, children and family services, and safe accommodation to reduce risk and build resilience across the family unit. 

·Survivor-led and trauma-informed practice, with lived experience embedded in design, delivery, and decision-making to ensure services are relevant, accessible, and inclusive.

·Flexible, community-based access and outreach, offering multiple entry points, streamlined referral pathways into specialist provision, and tailored responses for each survivor and family.

·Robust data and evidence, collecting and analysing impact data, allowing us to learn from what works and to keep iterating to delivery more effective, and to show long-term impact for survivors.

The role requires strong project development and delivery management skills (coordinating the mobilisation and delivery phase, and liaising with the various stakeholders) as well as the ability to  facilitate effective governance and make decisions (including data analysis and presentation skills). As the Lead for the partnership, you will work with the Programme Director to create an effective platform for all stakeholders, including those we support, to be heard. This will require multi-stakeholder engagement and management including VCSE, Local Authority and Central Government partners.

Safer Recruitment

Depaul UK is committed to fair and inclusive recruitment, and we welcome applications from people of all backgrounds.

About Depaul UK

In the 1980s, high unemployment and steep inflation was contributing to a shocking rise in youth homelessness across London. Thousands of young people were sleeping rough every night, with many areas notoriously dubbed “cardboard cities” due to the visible rise in street homelessness. Appalled by the scenes playing out across the capital, a group of people came together to tackle the challenge head on. Led by Cardinal Basil Hume and Mark McGreevy OBE, in 1989 Depaul UK was born.

What began as a single housing project in North London soon expanded across London, Greater Manchester and the North East of England. Today, Depaul UK provides accommodation, prevention and support services to thousands of marginalised young people across the UK each year.

As our name suggests, the work of Depaul UK has been inspired by St. Vincent de Paul – a man who devoted his life to helping vast numbers of people throughout the 17th century. St. Vincent de Paul’s belief in the intrinsic worth of all people and his commitment to taking bold action remain central to our values today. Depaul UK now forms part of a family of Depaul charities around the world. We each focus on the specific challenges in our own countries, but we’re united by our shared values and mission to end homelessness. #INDNFP
