Who we are and why we are needed
The Fore is creating a society that solves its own problems. Each year we provide funding and skills to the best grassroots charities and social enterprises in the UK and we are growing.
Across the UK, talented people within communities are building practical solutions to our most complex challenges – from poverty and mental health to education, exclusion and sustainability. However, the vast majority of these solutions do not achieve their potential to drive wider change across society because of failures in how the funding system works.
The Fore is the UK’s only venture philanthropy fund that has cracked the code in how to identify and distribute funding to turbocharge grassroots innovation and catalyse change. Since 2017, The Fore has been backing the best small charities and social enterprises with astonishing results. So far over 50% of local organisations supported eight years ago have gone on to influence policy, shape national conversations and change lives at scale.
Currently The Fore is funding around 50 of the best charities per year and supporting hundreds of others with skills. However, as an organisation we need to do more. We are looking to scale our impact through two routes. Firstly, by increasing our work backing the best charities and convening and educating donors, and secondly by leading change in the broader funding system.
The role
In the next phase of The Fore’s development, it is a priority for the CEO to be able to concentrate on building the external profile and influence of The Fore’s work. Therefore, the Chief Operating Officer (COO) will play a central role in leadership as the organisation develops.

We’re a small, agile charity so you’ll work across both high-level direction and day-to-day organisational delivery. In the next eighteen months, the COO will have responsibility for designing and delivering on a number of key strategic priorities, such as:

- building out and refining existing activities and processes to ensure exceptional relationship management for our growing number of corporate and private philanthropic partners
- working with the CEO to develop the Partnerships Team to set it up for scaling and to meet the needs of new partnership models

- Leads the commercialisation and rollout of the Fore Index (a tool that allows organisations to put a £ value on their impact), securing partners and funding to support its expansion beyond The Fore’s portfolio
Impact, data and systems
- Holds responsibility for the organisation’s impact framework, ensuring it is credible, proportionate, and aligned with strategic priorities
- Ensures data and insight are used effectively to inform decision-making, reporting, and external positioning

Governance, compliance, risk and finance

- Contributes to the development of board and committee papers, leading on operational, financial, and risk-related content to ensure clear reporting

About Action Tutoring
At Action Tutoring, we believe every child should be given the opportunity to succeed in school. But in the UK today, young people from disadvantaged backgrounds are less likely to
achieve the grades they need to progress in life. This isn't because they are any less able; they have less access to the tools to help them reach their potential.
We don't think this is fair. We know tutoring is an effective way of improving academic attainment and so we harness the power of volunteer tutors to bridge the gap and ensure this help can be accessed by every pupil who needs it, not just those who can afford it.
We specifically help pupils facing socio-economic disadvantage and who are at risk of leaving primary or secondary school without reaching national standards in their exams. We work in partnership with schools in different cities and regions across the UK, delivering weekly tutoring in English or maths to those pupils who need it most.
About the opportunity
The Director of Finance and Operations works closely with the CEO to build the organisation, operations and systems to enable us to scale and respond to emerging opportunities. A critical strategic role, they are a hands-on financial leader that brings strategic insight and challenge. Passionate about our mission, they lead a small team and use their experience and expertise to make our strategy a practical reality.
Closing date: Sunday, 17th May 2026

Start date: Ideal start date is asap. However, we’re happy to wait for the ideal candidate.
Contract and hours: Permanent. Full time. We offer flexible hours with 9.30-4 as core hours. A full working week is 37.5 hours.
Place of work: Hybrid/flexible. This role requires 6 days a month in our London Office, Fivefields, Grosvenor Gardens, London SW1W 0DH.

As Policy & Participation Lead, you’ll be at the heart of Inspiring Inclusion, a seven-year multi-agency programme funded by Propel, which is tackling the disproportionate school exclusion of Black and racially minoritised young people with adverse childhood experiences. Your mission is to make sure young people aren’t just consulted or 'given a voice', but are driving the change.
Yor day job is to design, lead and facilitate the systems, structures, culture and activities that power youth leadership and make change happen. You will be an organiser, working to catalyse and sustain youth engagement across a network of partners, ensuring young people’s experiences impact where it matters most. You will be committed to building something meaningful, rather than signalling through social media moments. You will co-design and co-deliver high-quality, in-person and community based youth services, activities and opportunities that reflect young people’s realities. You will want to make a difference, and will develop powerful, authentic materials—stories, insights and policy ideas—that drive change locally in Camden and beyond
You will bring experience of working with young people using a wide-range of strengths-based, participatory approaches grounded in justice, equity and inclusion. You will be excited by the opportunity to design and create a citizens assembly for young people to create a manifesto for change in schools. You know how to create spaces where young people facing challenges can grow, be affirmed and thrive. You’re confident navigating complex systems and partnerships, and will be a persuasive communicator across a range of media, and skilled at platforming young people to influence. Finally, you will be a team player, because it will take all of us to build the worlds young people deserve.
Please apply by sending in a comprehensive CV (maximum 3 pages) and a personal statement outlining how you meet the person specification. Your personal statement must be no longer than 2 pages of A4, with a minimum font size 12.
