Want to make a positive difference to society whilst accelerating your career in the charity sector? 

Merchant Taylors’ Boone’s Charity is an arm of the Merchant Taylors’ Company, with a vision to be a long term provider of high quality almshouses in the Borough of Lewisham that improves lives across the generations.  

Merchant Taylors’ Company began as a medieval organisation in 1327. Once linked to the tailoring industry, today we are a network of members from a diverse range of backgrounds who share a passion for community, education and philanthropy.  

We are an organisation dedicated to progress, fairness and people. Members volunteer their time, skills and donate to empower a range of charities and support a number of associated schools across the United Kingdom. We help people to achieve their full potential despite life’s challenges. To meet our ambitions, we provide an engaged and driven workforce that ensure we continue to be City leaders. 

You are an exceptional person who will enjoy: 

• Providing a great service to our Over 57s independent living residents at our 34 flats sub-let from One Housing in Christopher Boone’s Court, Lewisham, London 

• Improving processes for the benefit of residents and driving casework to a successful conclusion 

• Contributing to shaping our strategic vision to build almshouses for young people affected by homelessness 

• Working closely with our senior team to support the board of trustees of Merchant Taylors’ Boone’s Charity. 

This is a great opportunity if you are interested in gaining transferable experience of senior management issues in a charity setting, and motivated by providing great customer service.  

An existing qualification in housing is not required - sharing our values and showing the right behaviours are what matter most to us.  We’re looking for a positive, proactive person who enjoys bringing their intellect and commercial awareness to their work, connect with residents and with stakeholders at all levels from grassroots to board, and are transparent in all that they do.
