Purpose of the Role

This exciting new role is about creating connections, building ecosystems and developing and strengthening relationships that power social justice movements. As a member of the Senior Management Team, you will work closely with the CEO to lead our partnerships and community engagement work — creating the enabling conditions and networks that help youth-led movements grow, sustain, and make lasting change.

You will take lead on:

• Partnering with other funders to resource youth-led change, including co-designed and co-held programmes with other foundations.
• Developing community partnerships based on the needs and priorities of the young people we are here to serve - including charities, local businesses, and local authorities.
• Understanding the landscape of youth-led change and social justice work, identifying gaps in support and guiding our investment to help fill them, both at the national and local level.
• Monitoring and communicating the impact of our work with external audiences.
• Ensuring our work is grounded in safeguarding practices that minimise harm and uphold our commitment to care, equity and justice.

Success in this role looks like:

· A stronger Blagrave presence and impact at a local level.

· Growing networks of trust and solidarity across youth-led social justice movements, nationally and locally.

· Greater capacity, visibility, and long-term sustainability for youth-led organisations.

· Strengthened support for collective action and systems change.

· Young people and communities feeling ownership of, and connection to, the work.

Are you looking for a finance role with purpose?

We are looking for an experienced financial manager who can help us drive forwards our work bringing nature and communities together - for the benefit of both.

The Railway Land Wildlife Trust has grown significantly over the last 5 years - delivering more substantial projects, working on more sites and reaching more beneficiaries. With this, our income has grown along with the complexity of our financial management and reporting needs. 

We are now in a position to recruit a new team member to lead on developing and implementing financial management systems and preparing financial reports, to manage venue hire and to provide extra support in keeping the organisation running smoothly.
