Registered Charity No: 1127164

Yateley Industries is a unique and ambitious charity which has provided employment in our factory, training, accommodation and community engagement for disabled and neurodivergent adults for over 90 years. Our mission is to create a more inclusive society where everyone can thrive.

Under the new management, the charity has developed additional activities, including Community Hub, Food pantry and Café, and is looking to reestablish the design and printing roots of the organisation. We have a new set of trustees, a dynamic leadership team, a re-energised workforce and a strategy for the development of our site.

While our history is long, our fundraising journey has only recently begun. The dedicated fundraising function was only established two years ago and in that short time, we've grown income from under £60,000 to £300-350,000 per year. That’s a testament to what’s possible here - and it’s just the beginning.

An opportunity has arisen to join Yateley’s entrepreneurial management team in the position of Trusts & Grants Manager, taking over and further developing on the strong foundations that have been laid in the last few years. There is still much to build and plenty of challenges to navigate but we believe this is a once in a career opportunity to shape a high-impact, high-potential function from the inside out.

If you're ambitious and want to leave a legacy, this is your moment.

Grow is an exciting, grassroots organisation making a significant impact. Our small, vibrant, and dedicated team has a profound influence on the lives of young people in Sheffield.

• Manage and develop Grow’s Fundraising Team
• Deliver Grow’s ambitious fundraising financial targets

• Develop and oversee fundraising events in collaboration with the Head of Marketing and External Relations including promoting Grow to a wider audience

Management

• Prioritise the development of the Fundraising Assistant through developing KPIs, identifying training needs, and accessing training with support from the People & Culture team
• Reporting to CEO
• Lead compliance in relation to CIoF code of conduct

Wider responsibilities

• Showcase the impact of young people - investing time in understanding the faces and people that are at the heart of Grow’s mission
• Play an active role in Grow’s team and key activities, including attending social and fundraising events (likely to be during evenings and at weekends)
• Occasional evening and weekend commitments

We are looking for someone who is a fantastic relationship builder who can interpret and deliver an understanding of our mission to others and ultimately gain their support. We want someone with a track record of working in the third sector and who can develop and deliver high-impact fundraising strategies so that we can take our nature-based work to the next level and expand our programmes in the Sheffield area.

Any role offer is subject to an enhanced DBS check.

You must be available to work on Mondays.

Training

• Support and training will be provided as needed to ensure the post holder's success and development in the role. Initial development needs will be identified and addressed during the probation period.
