Fundraising Officer, Peterborough Cathedral — £32,000
Help write the next chapter for one of England's great cathedrals. No fundraising background? Bring your relationship-building skills, we'll teach you the rest.
Peterborough Cathedral is at a genuinely exciting turning point. We're delivering an ambitious Strategic Review and Masterplan, and moving fundraising away from reactive, crisis-driven appeals towards something more strategic and sustainable, built on real relationships, better systems and disciplined stewardship. This role sits right at the heart of that shift, and whoever joins us now will help shape how it's done for years to come.
You don't need to have worked in fundraising before. We're looking for someone who knows how to build trust and manage relationships, whether that's come from sales, account management, hospitality, events, customer service, education, local government or anywhere else people-focused. If you can communicate clearly, stay organised under competing priorities, and genuinely care about doing right by the people you work with, we can teach you the fundraising craft. Full training, a structured induction and regular one-to-one support from our Head of Fundraising are all part of the package.
What you'll actually be doing:
- Looking after our donors, helping deliver our Stewardship Plan so supporters feel valued and connected, managing day-to-day donor communications, keeping our CRM in good shape, and supporting legacy and planned-giving work.
- Helping us win grants, with full training and support, you'll help prepare applications to funders like the National Lottery Heritage Fund, Historic England and the Cathedral Sustainability Fund, research new opportunities, and help build compelling cases for support.
- Building corporate and civic relationships, connecting the Cathedral with businesses and partners across the city and beyond.
- Working across the whole Cathedral community, from Finance and Marketing to Visitor Experience, Music, Learning and Worship, because fundraising here isn't a siloed function, it's woven into everything we do.
We know brilliant fundraisers come from all kinds of backgrounds, so if you don't tick every box on the person spec, we'd still love to hear from you. What matters most is your attitude, your communication skills and your willingness to learn, and a sympathy with the Cathedral's Christian ethos and values.
In return, you'll get:
- £32,000 salary, plus enrolment in the Cathedral pension scheme (post-probation)
- 37.5 hours a week on a flexible working pattern
- 25 days holiday plus bank holidays
- A structured induction and training plan, with regular one-to-one support from the Head of Fundraising
- A genuinely rare chance to build a fundraising career inside a 900-year-old institution during a period of real, tangible change

About the Role
Positive Behaviour Support is about understanding the person, not simply the behaviour.
As a Behaviour Practitioner at Norwood, you’ll use Positive Behaviour Support to help people with learning disabilities and/or autism experience greater independence, choice, wellbeing and quality of life.
You’ll work alongside the people we support, colleagues, families and multidisciplinary professionals to understand individual needs, identify what may be driving behaviours and develop practical, person-centred approaches that make a meaningful difference.
Your impact will extend beyond individual PBS plans. You’ll coach and develop colleagues, role model best practice and help teams embed Positive Behaviour Support into everyday support.

Your Day to Day
You’ll:
- Complete functional and behavioural assessments
- Develop, implement and regularly review Positive Behaviour Support Plans
- Observe practice and use behavioural monitoring and data analysis to understand needs and evaluate outcomes
- Design proactive and reactive support strategies
- Support individuals and teams during crisis situations and help reduce the risk of placement breakdown

Lead our landmark Engine Shed venue and shape unforgettable experiences at the heart of student life. Bring creativity, commercial drive, and operational excellence to one of Northampton’s most iconic spaces.
Northampton Students’ Union is searching for an exceptional Venue & Commercial Manager to take the reins of The Engine Shed—our beautifully restored Grade II listed railway building and the beating heart of Waterside Campus. This is a rare opportunity to lead a venue that blends historic character with modern capability, delivering vibrant student events, standout commercial functions, and unforgettable experiences for our community.
By day, The Engine Shed is a welcoming social hub where students meet, collaborate, and create memories.

We’re looking for someone who can harness this potential, driving both operational excellence and commercial growth while championing inclusivity, sustainability, and outstanding service.

About the Role
A home is more than a property. It’s the foundation for independence, security and belonging.
As Housing Manager at Norwood, you’ll provide a high-quality, compliant and person-centred housing management service across a portfolio of our supported living properties.
You’ll take ownership of the full tenancy journey, from allocation and sign-up through to tenancy sustainment and move-on. But this role is about much more than managing agreements and processes.
You’ll build relationships with the people we support, understand what matters to them and help ensure their homes are safe, well maintained and appropriate to their individual needs. You’ll conduct regular tenancy visits and property inspections, support people to understand their rights and responsibilities, and help resolve issues before they put a tenancy at risk.
Working closely with our Property and Operations teams, Registered Managers, families, advocates and external partners, you’ll bring together strong housing practice with an understanding of the individual.
Your impact will be clear: sustainable tenancies, safer homes, greater independence and a positive experience for the people who call them home.

You’ll be able to adapt your communication to individual needs, explain sometimes complex housing matters clearly and make sure the people we support understand their tenancy, their rights and the choices available to them.
You’ll be comfortable working collaboratively with support teams, families, advocates, social workers, local authorities, housing providers and other partners to resolve issues and achieve positive outcomes.
Most importantly, you’ll combine professional judgement with a person-centred approach, recognising that behind every tenancy is someone’s home, independence and sense of security.

You’ll:
- Take ownership of a defined portfolio of supported living properties and manage the full tenancy lifecycle
- Conduct regular visits with tenants to review their tenancy, identify emerging issues and support tenancy sustainment
- Carry out property inspections during scheduled visits, identifying repairs, property condition and health and safety concerns
