We are recruiting two permanent Funding Officers in the South West: one full-time and one 0.9FTE (33.5 hours per week). Funding Officers in these roles will primarily be part of a South West regional team delivering our Reaching Communities programme, with opportunities to be involved with other programmes and aspects of the Fund’s wider operations as they arise. As a Funding Officer for the National Lottery Community Fund you will be integral to supporting the organisation to deliver our strategy It Starts With Community.
These roles will contribute to ensuring that vital funding reaches communities and projects who need it most in our region. As a Funding Officer you will work as part of our South West regional team, working day-to-day alongside fellow Funding Officers, supported by a Funding Manager.
Across the two posts we are looking for people who will provide support across the region, with a focus on developing relationships and being a key point of contact for either Exeter & East Devon or Swindon & Wiltshire.
Ideally (but not essentially) you will live in or near one of these areas and have good knowledge of the respective local area.
The Funding Officer role is classed as mobile working which means you will be expected to work from home primarily and visit various locations across the region, as needed. The ability to drive and have access to a vehicle is therefore beneficial, although not essential.
Responsibilities & Expectations of the Role
- You will assess applications for funding and manage grants using local knowledge, best practice and thematic expertise and you will harness the experience of customers and stakeholders to improve our grant making and inform our decision making.
- Being responsible for supporting local people and communities, you will have a strong understanding of our vision, our commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion and our funding products.
- Being responsible for a pipeline of projects you will need to understand and respond to the different needs of our customers by providing advice and considered feedback, and be willing to have challenging but constructive conversations.
- You will ensure that both grant management and application assessment play an effective part in contributing to the Fund’s knowledge and learning as a grant maker. You will manage your own caseload, liaise with grant recipients, undertake project visits, identify and manage risk, support organisations to meet their grant requirements and measure their impact.
- You will be an active and integral member of the South West regional team, as well as the wider hub and Fund. You will contribute your skills, knowledge and expertise to a range of work and programmes as need arises. Within an organisation and sector experiencing on-going change, an agile & flexible approach to the role will be essential for success.
- You will represent the Fund, including at funding fairs and external meetings, creating opportunities for people to come together. You will share learning from your role with other colleagues so that we can maximise our impact.
- You will need to work within the Fund’s policies and procedures and relevant legislation, and in a way that is in line with our vision and values.
We have a hybrid approach to working. Work pattern and location will be agreed with the successful candidate. The SW regional office is in Exeter.
Interview details:
- Date: 29th & 30th June 2026
- Format: Face-to-face
- Location: SW Regional Office, Exeter
We will be hosting a briefing session on Monday 1st June, 12pm. To register for the session or for any questions about the recruitment process, please email the recruitment team.
If you would like an informal conversation about the Funding Officer role, please contact the recruitment team.

This is an exciting opportunity to join our team in a role that sits at the heart of everything we do, providing hands-on, high-quality and proactive support across communications, events and operations for the Capacity Group.
You’ll spend your time making things happen. The to-do lists you’ll write and the skillsets you engage will vary greatly. Whether it’s coordinating one of our events, scheduling social media content, keeping our CRM system up-to-date or planning a brilliant staff social for the team, you’ll be the kind of person who spots what needs doing and gets on with it.
We’re looking for someone with a genuine can-do attitude, a team player who thrives on variety, keeps calm under pressure, and relishes completing tasks to a high standard while meeting deadlines. You’ll muck in wherever you’re needed, bringing organisational nous and a spring in your step even on the busiest of days.
Our ideal candidate will be a people person, happy to get stuck in, confident building relationships across the team and with external partners, and excited by the idea that no two days will look the same – because at Capacity, they won’t.
It’s a role with variety and scope to develop as Capacity grows, ideal for someone who wants to grow alongside us.
