Yateley Industries is a unique and ambitious charity which has provided employment in our factory, training, accommodation and community engagement for disabled and neurodivergent adults for over 90 years. Our mission is to create a more inclusive society where everyone can thrive.

Under the new management, the charity has developed additional activities, including Community Hub, Food pantry and Café, and is looking to reestablish the design and printing roots of the organisation. We have a new set of trustees, a dynamic leadership team, a re-energised workforce and a strategy for the development of our site.

While our history is long, our fundraising journey has only recently begun. The dedicated fundraising function was only established two years ago and in that short time, we've grown income from under £60,000 to £300-350,000 per year. That’s a testament to what’s possible here - and it’s just the beginning.

An opportunity has arisen to join Yateley’s entrepreneurial management team in the position of Trusts & Grants Manager, taking over and further developing on the strong foundations that have been laid in the last few years. There is still much to build and plenty of challenges to navigate but we believe this is a once in a career opportunity to shape a high-impact, high-potential function from the inside out.

If you're ambitious and want to leave a legacy, this is your moment.
