About Us

The British Science Association (BSA) was founded in 1831 and is a registered charity.

We are creating a future where science is more relevant, representative, and connected to society.

We have ambitious goals to put people at the heart of science.

About the role

We are seeking to appoint someone on a fixed term contract to the end of December 2027, to join our Grants Team in delivering The Ideas Fund, an exciting programme which looks to connect communities with researchers in order to develop and try out ideas related to mental wellbeing. The Fund is delivered in four areas of the UK – Oldham, Hull, the Highlands and Islands of Scotland, and North West Northern Ireland, although this role can be remote, based anywhere in the UK.

With support from the Head of Grants, we expect that you will have lead responsibility for grant management across these areas, building strong relationships with our Development Co-ordinators and contributing to the successful delivery of the overall programme.

You will oversee the support for grant holders to learn from what is working and feed this learning into our overall approach with the Fund, as well as sharing insights externally. It’s an exciting time for the Fund as we work to build partnerships with others who are interested in community-led approaches to working with research and researchers. You can read more about our emerging findings around ‘Reimagining Research’ at the next stage when you make your final application.

You will work with our existing Grants & Learning Manager to ensure that our due diligence and grant reporting requirements are met, responding flexibly and creatively to issues that arise. Importantly, you will consistently focus on how our learning can influence long term change in funding and research practice.

As noted in the job description, we also expect this role to include supporting the Head of Grants with developing the BSA’s strategy around future grants programmes. This may include working across funding programmes other than The Ideas Fund as they are developed and funding secured.

Key responsibilities

• Work with the Head of Grants and our existing Grants and Learning Manager to continue to deliver an innovative programme that constantly evolves based on what we learn.
• Ensure excellent grant-making using relational, flexible and participatory approaches with high levels of customer satisfaction.
• Champion innovation in supporting community/researcher collaboration, community-led research, systems change and grant making across relevant sectors including:
  • Developing and delivering strategies for sharing learning, practice and ideas with a broad range of stakeholders through a range of approaches
  • Representing the British Science Association at external events to share innovation and learning
  • Developing and delivering events and/or content to showcase practice and share learning with a broad range of stakeholders using a range of approaches
• Support the implementation of our learning and evaluation strategies and processes, reviewing and refining as needed. Manage relationships and/or contracts with learning partners where appropriate
• Oversee the smooth delivery of the programme, including budget management, payment processing, due diligence activity etc.
• Support local Development Co-ordinators to:
  • Work with grant holders, collaborating researchers and project partners to overcome challenges they might face in delivering their projects
  • Collate and share local learning as part of wider learning strategies
• Develop and manage a small pipeline of discretionary grants to add value to the portfolio and/or make systemic impact at local or national level, if necessary. Develop bespoke application and grant management and learning processes as appropriate
• Engage a network of key existing stakeholders, and build further external relationships, to ensure successful delivery of the programme
• Support the Head of Grants with developing the BSA’s strategy around future grants programmes. In addition, the post-holder will be expected to:
  • Support colleagues across the organisation, especially at busy times or on specific areas of expertise
  • Other duties as reasonably required by the line manager

About you

The Grants & Learning Manager role would suit someone who has strong stakeholder management skills and experience in curating and sharing learning. Good attention to detail, experience of grant-making, and an understanding of the benefits and risks involved in delivering innovative grant-making approaches would all be beneficial.

The role would suit someone who is comfortable using their judgement and working with an evolving programme, and who can confidently communicate with a variety of stakeholders. We are particularly interested to hear from people who have experience in supporting and influencing wider systems change.

Your experience in terms of the person specification could come from either a personal or professional background. You may not have experience of everything listed in the person specification, but will be open to challenging yourself and developing in the role.

Are you looking for a leadership role where you can make a real difference to dementia services across Somerset?
Do you have the skills to manage contracts, lead a team, and work collaboratively within a multi-agency pathway?

We’re excited to offer an opportunity as Local Services Manager for Somerset. This is a home-based role, but you’ll need to travel regularly across the region for meetings, engagement activities, and partnership work. Mileage claims will be paid from the Somerset border. This is a large, rural county with poor transport links, so access to your own vehicle is required.

Somerset is a unique area for Alzheimer’s Society, with services delivered through a grant-funded contract with supportive and innovative commissioners. The Somerset Dementia Adviser Service is also an active participant in the Somerset Dementia Partnership, and has supported delivery of conferences and activities. The local ICB has recently clustered with Dorset and BANES, Swindon and Wiltshire, connecting you to colleagues within your ICB and the wider South West.

You’ll work closely with another Local Services Manager to oversee delivery across the region. Your responsibilities will include managing contracts and groups, leading a team of Dementia Advisers, our valued volunteers and ensuring services align with our Help and Hope strategy and organisational values.

About you

You will have:

- Experience in managing or supporting service delivery, ideally within health, social care or community settings or transferable experience from related sectors.
 
- Experience in leading geographically dispersed, community-based teams and managing contracts, with a focus on quality and safe delivery of a high performing service.
 
- You will be confident using IT systems and managing and reviewing information through computerised recording systems. You will also be able to confidently navigate relationships through virtual means, including Teams.
 
- Passionate about continually improving services for people affected by dementia and informed by their experiences. You will be committed to our values, and have a focus on meeting the needs of the diverse communities of Somerset, driving forward equity and accessibility in our service.
 
- Comfortable working independently and collaboratively across a dispersed team.
 
- Have organisational and relationship-building skills, with the ability to engage stakeholders and monitor performance.
  - Be able to travel regularly across Somerset and maintain a strong local presence.

Please don’t be put off from applying if you don’t meet every single requirement listed. We recognise the value of transferable skills and lived experience, and we’re keen to hear from candidates who can demonstrate potential, capability and a willingness to learn.

Key Responsibilities:

- Managing, monitoring and reporting on the requirements of the contract to the ICB and Dementia Partnership.
 
- Leading and supporting a team of Dementia Advisers and volunteers. You will also be responsible for group delivery across the county.  
 
- Working closely with another Local Services Manager to ensure seamless delivery across Somerset. You will also be part of the South West Regional Management Team, with occasional face to face meetings outside of the immediate area.
 
- You will be responsible for quality monitoring, performance and team culture of the Somerset team.
 
- Building relationships with local authorities, the health board, and pathway partners, including presenting to diverse audiences and advocating for people with dementia and the service. This may also include occasional requests for media interviews.
  - Identifying opportunities to strengthen services and improve outcomes for people affected by dementia. 

Interviews for this role have been provisionally scheduled to take place over Teams w/c 6th July

We need to ensure the voices around our table better reflect and understand the communities we exist to serve. We strongly encourage individuals to apply who have a disability, impairment or health condition or individuals who identify as Black, Asian or from another minority ethnic background, as these groups are currently under-represented at Alzheimer's Society.

AI tools often lack the personal touch and authenticity that set candidates apart. We want to hear your unique perspective, experiences, and skills, so we encourage you to showcase them in your own voice.

We try to avoid closing roles early where possible, however if we receive a high volume of applications, we may close earlier than the advertised closing date. Should this occur, we will aim to provide you with at least 48 hours' notice.
