You'll build trusted relationships with stakeholders across the organisation, providing the financial analysis, challenge and support they need to navigate complexity with confidence.

- Strengthening financial knowledge and confidence across your stakeholder group through coaching, training and a partnership-based approach.
- Working collaboratively across the Finance team to design intuitive reports and analysis that meet the needs of colleagues across the Society.
- Advocating good accounting principles and helping to educate, inform and develop others within your directorate and the wider Finance team.
- Identifying cost saving or optimisation opportunities, working closely with colleagues in Procurement and Sustainability to realise these.
- Supporting Senior Business Partners in identifying key performance metrics and collecting routine feedback from partners across the Society to drive constant quality improvement.

You may also line manage a Finance Business Partnering Assistant, role-modelling a high challenge, high support culture where accountability, performance and development go hand in hand.

Are you ready to be a trusted financial partner, bringing both challenge and practical solutions to the people working to make life better for everyone affected by dementia?

The Organisation
Our client is a mission-driven programme dedicated to supporting community-led change and place-based development. Working in close partnership with local communities, funders and stakeholders, they help people take control of their town's future - connecting local energy and ideas, and ensuring long-term funding flows to what matters most, as decided by the people who live there. In Grimsby, this includes the Growing Together Fund, a new, independent community fund being developed. Their approach is rooted in local knowledge, relationships and trust.

As the programme moves into a critical delivery phase, Prospectus is delighted to be working them to recruit and experienced Fund Coordinator to help ensure its work runs smoothly and effectively. This role is offered on a 6 month contract, working remotely with regular travel to Grimsby and London.

The Role
As Fund Coordinator, you will play a central role in holding together the operational delivery of several grant programmes. You will coordinate day-to-day activity, making sure design sessions are progressed efficiently and key programme milestones are met. You will support the preparation of clear and accessible application materials, manage incoming queries from applicants and community decision-makers, and help coordinate assessment panels and forums.

Alongside delivery, you will take responsibility for events coordination, including liaising with fund decision makers and helping to prepare in advance for future rounds. You will also maintain oversight of the programme budgets, keeping track of expenditure, highlighting any variances and assisting with financial reporting where necessary.

The role also offers exposure to fundraising and communications. You will support the development of funding materials, help manage funder relationships and pipeline tracking, in addition to contributing to capturing programme learning and informing strategy documentation. Working closely with the Fund Lead, your work will enable senior colleagues to focus on strategic priorities by ensuring strong day to day coordination and reliable support across the programme.

The Person
You will be a highly organised and committed charity sector professional with exposure ideally to grant-making or fundraising, who is comfortable managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment. You will have strong events and programme support experience and will be confident keeping complex, demanding workstreams on track and to tight deadlines. Your written communication will be clear and concise, allowing you to produce accurate and compelling summaries, guidance materials and correspondence.

You will be numerate and comfortable keeping budget trackers up to date. You will be proactive and solutions driven in your approach, able to identify what needs to be done and to take ownership of making it happen. You will also be confident in exercising sound judgement and diplomacy when escalating issues at appropriate times.

You will have experience of working collaboratively and remotely within a small, busy team and will be able to step up and represent the organisation when the Fund Lead is not available. Importantly, you will have a genuine interest in community-led change and civic collaborative approaches to community development.

This is an opportunity to play a key role in delivering impactful funding programmes that make a real difference to communities.

The programme is committed to building a diverse and inclusive organisation and warmly welcomes applications from people of all backgrounds and lived experiences.

We are committed to building our team and trustees from the broad range of backgrounds and experiences across the UK, valuing difference and diversity, and building a workplace based on shared values of equality and mutual respect.

We have ambitious plans for the future and will be holding ourselves to account and putting our principles into action, as we all work together to help bring about positive change and a fairer future for everyone. We therefore want to encourage applications from all races, ages, religions and sexual orientations, as well as parents, veterans, people living with any kind of disabilities and any other groups that could bring diverse perspectives to our organisation.

No agencies please.

Liberty and its supporters have been a force for fairness, dignity and respect in our society for more than 90 years. We are now at a critical point. Shared assumptions on freedom, equality and democracy are being overturned, and with this the threat to our basic rights grows.

Now, at this crucial moment in British political history, we’re seeking two experienced Media and Communications Officers to elevate our media and digital outputs as we deliver on an exciting new three-year organisational strategy to tell a story of hope, protect our rights and freedoms, and build a safe and just future for everyone in the UK. 

The Communications Team tells people who Liberty is, what we do and how they can get involved – helping to shape the narrative of the media debate and influence decision makers. This role requires proven experience of designing and executing high-quality, high-impact media and digital communications plans that reach, engage and persuade target audiences.

Liberty is a small organisation which punches above its weight. The Media and Communications Officers will use their media experience to support the running of our busy press office by being the first point of contact for journalists, drafting responses to media requests, and supporting our spokespeople with interview briefings. They will also help build our profile in the media by forging relationships with key contacts across broadcast, print and new forms of digital media.

Telling an inclusive story about the importance of our rights and freedoms to everyday lives is central to who we are and what we do. From facial recognition technology to protest rights, you will get the opportunity to work on a wide range of high-profile issues.

The Media and Communications Officers will deliver engaging outputs across social media and our website, adapting core messages across different platforms. They will help bring technical legal and policy arguments to life through creative storytelling that resonates with the public.

Liberty’s first president described our work as “the fight that is never done”. This is a great opportunity for two experienced comms professionals to join a dynamic team in that fight and put their creative ideas into practice at a time when changing the narrative on human rights has perhaps never been more important. 

Liberty fully embraces flexible working and is committed to employee development. We aim to encourage people from all backgrounds to work with us and are particularly interested in hearing from people from minority backgrounds and all socio-economic sections of society. Liberty supports hybrid working, with a minimum office attendance two days per week in the Westminster office.
