Since its creation in 1987 Education for Health has been providing education and training to Healthcare Professionals. We provide a range of Higher Education courses from Certificate to a full master’s programme along with a growing range of Essentials, Refreshers and webinars across a range of long term conditions.
During the pandemic we created a new model of delivery – an interactive blended online learning model (IBOL), enabling people to access their learning at a time and a pace that suits them. This is supplemented by live interactive webinars and recorded lectures.
This is a pivotal time for the charity; the pandemic had an adverse impact on our income as weary healthcare professionals had no time or energy to devote to training. However, it provided us with an ideal opportunity to refresh our products using state of the art authoring tools and develop a new Learning Management System (LMS). The result was an ambitious automation programme, organisational restructure and functional realignment.
We also used the time to review our market and create new products. By bringing together sales, marketing, communications and customer focus into one directorate, we believe it will create a better coherence to enable us to achieve our ambitious plans. We have started the new financial year on a good footing with a plan in place to grow income from £1.5million to £1.8million this financial year, with similar growth each year to 2025. We are confident there is considerable potential to raise the profile of the charity to maximise impact and growth by extending our customer base geographically and widening our reach through strategic partnerships, campaigns, and working with more opinion leaders.
As a member of the Executive Team, the Director of Finance and Organisational Performance will use their experience, ideas, and knowledge of finance and organisational performance to lead Education for Health’s Finance, Systems, Information, Data and People functions to fulfil our business plan, supporting healthcare professionals to improve health outcomes.

About Bloomsbury Football
Bloomsbury Football Foundation uses the power of football to improve the lives of underprivileged young people in London.

Our step model engages previously inactive young people from underserved communities by running free-to-access programmes in schools, community centres and housing estates, before encouraging participants to join our high-engagement, extra-curricular programmes that take place on weekday evenings, weekends and during the school holidays.
Our trusted coaches build long-term relationships with the young people in their care, allowing at-risk children to build their confidence and soft skills in a team environment.
As a result of our outreach programme, 73% of households in our communities are classed as ‘income-deprived’ by the ONS and over half of our beneficiaries receive income-dependent free school meals – more than double the London average.
Founded in 2018, we have grown to work with over 5,000 young people per week across 6 different boroughs, utilising a sliding-scale model of financial assistance to break down barriers to participation in sport for all.
We have seen the impact our model can have, and we want to expand our offering across London – by 2028, we aim to support 20,000 young people in the capital every week.

Over the decades, we have supported a wide range of causes, adapting to the changing circumstances and needs in the UK. Each year, we award around £3 million in grants to charities and other public bodies that focus on preserving the UK's heritage or bringing about social change. Our aims are to improve the life chances of the most vulnerable and preserve the best of our past for the public to enjoy.
Our main programmes are:
- Preservation & Conservation - preserving and conserving significant historic buildings, structures, objects, works of art, collections and records.
- Young Women’s Mental Health - supporting young women with their mental health by improving their access to high quality, gender and age informed services.
We are seeking a part-time Grants Manager to work with the Director to help manage the Preservation and Conservation programme. You will be part of the whole grant making process including assessment of grant applications, portfolio management, undertaking due diligence and writing case papers for Trustees’ consideration. You will communicate with applicants and grant holders in order to understand their projects, seek further information, and keep them up to date with the assessment timetable.
Working with colleagues you will help develop and improve our application and monitoring processes with the aim to improve the experience for applicants and grantees. You will also support the Communications Manager to share stories and learnings from completed projects and celebrate their success.
