You will help deliver a wide range of activities to our cross-sector network of members, promoting our learning programme and engaging with a range of audiences to help us achieve change.
We’re at a crucial and exciting point in the organisation as we’ve grown from three to thirteen team members in the last six years. Alongside this, London Funders now has a subsidiary organisation in its infancy, Collaboration Circle, and the potential for a second one through our place based work with London’s Giving. This means that there are lots of opportunities to design, develop and implement new processes across the London Funders family. We need someone who is highly organised, has excellent administrative skills, and who can apply their range of written, digital and verbal communication skills to help us deliver our diverse portfolio of projects and achieve the change that’s needed for Londoners. This is a fixed-term role until June 2026, with the potential to become permanent.
You’ll be a confident communicator with excellent attention to detail, able to manage multiple priorities and keep things running smoothly. Whether it’s booking venues, proofreading content, or making sure our calendar is coordinated, you’ll be the person who helps us get things done - on time and to a high standard.
This is a great opportunity for someone who thrives in a collaborative environment, enjoys variety in their work, and wants to contribute to meaningful change in London.
