The Revitalising Trusts Programme aims to ensure that inactive charitable trusts are either revitalised, or their assets are transferred to another charity (in the cases we manage, this is typically to a community foundation).

You will be highly organised, proactive and have excellent attention to detail – a completer-finisher who takes pride in seeing projects through to the end.

The role is very flexible. We are largely a fully remote team (with some desk space available in central London, if preferred). We are open to requests for flexible working patterns, e.g. 2 or 3 days per week, or a few hours each day. This is advertised as a 3-month fixed-term contract but there may be scope to extend the role.

At UK Community Foundations, we value inclusivity, relationships and ambition. We offer generous holiday and benefits, including 30 days holiday plus 8 bank holidays (pro-rated), enhanced pension contributions and flexible working patterns.

This role is available for immediate start.

Responsibilities:

Revitalising trusts and trust transfers 

• Lead on the delivery of the Revitalising Trusts Programme 

• Work closely with and build strong relationships with the Charity Commission  

• Manage the inactive trusts pipeline, ensuring timely progress

• Ensure clear communications about the programme with all stakeholders as required 

• Provide support to trustees in transferring active and inactive trusts to the network, or another charity when more appropriate 

Dormant charity accounts

• Liaise with the Charity Commission and relevant banks to progress caseloads, ensuring account transfers happen swiftly and legally
