Finance jobs in Central london, greater london

Be a part of a supportive team by joining the London District.

Our Net-Zero & Grant Enabler will take the lead in advising, supporting and encouraging our Churches and Circuits across London in accessing and securing funding to aid the development of our Mission Plan, but with a strong leaning towards net-zero initiatives. You must have knowledge of securing funding grants (that’s a given), but you’ll also need to have experience or a strong passion in supporting net-zero schemes. We’d also love you to have some skills in IT applications, some admin know how, and be able to bring some slick confidence to the role. We value independent thinkers, working on your own initiative, but also those who can work collaboratively with a team, and bounce those ideas.

Why is this role important?

The Methodist Church has committed to achieve net-zero by 2030. An ambitious target yes, but one we believe to be crucial in securing a better future for our communities. Our new Net-Zero & Grant Enabler will play a significant role in enabling our churches in London to secure funding to help achieve this goal and benefit from the wider impact of reaching net zero.

Why work with us?

A brilliant central office in Westminster, ability to work remotely, great (supportive) colleagues, flexible working, learning and development opportunities, pay, pensions and generous down time, committed to equality diversity and inclusion, and, did we mention the great colleagues?

Take a look at the job description. If this is for you, complete an application form, or give us a shout with any questions about the role.

About Refugee Action

Refugee Action exists to defend the right to safety that we all share. We’re fighting the hostility that has a devastating, daily impact on refugees and our communities. We do this with life changing support and system changing campaigns that bring us all closer to safety, dignity and hope. 

We do this work because we believe in taking action. But fighting for a fair asylum system for people seeking safety is no longer enough. Decades of degrading rhetoric and policies have created a hostile environment that has systematically dehumanised refugees. We’re building a future where people forced to flee the homes they loved have their rights upheld, receive a fair decision, essential support and help to thrive here, not just survive. Our vision is that every refugee seeking safety in the UK can thrive as part of a welcoming, anti-racist society.

It's an exciting time to be part of Refugee Action as we embark on a new Theory of Change as part of our seven-year strategy. We believe the best hope for real change will come from strong, connected movements that are skilled, united, and influential, with lived experience meaningfully at the centre. Our future role as a national charity will increasingly be to support, convene, and strengthen this movement while continuing to deliver services where they have the greatest strategic impact.

About the role

You will lead Refugee Action's Major Partnerships team, building and delivering a sustainable programme that raises significant income from major donors, trusts, corporates, statutory and foundation funders.

We're looking for a hands-on leader who can hit the ground running. The organisation has been through a period of change, and this role is central to leading the team through the transition by creating clarity, stability and shared purpose – restoring confidence, establishing clear ways of working, and embedding a culture of proactive new business development.

You will take ownership of rebuilding the team's foundations – setting direction, defining processes, and creating the conditions for high performance. Alongside this, you'll actively champion a new business mindset, working with the team to identify, cultivate and convert prospective donors and funders.

Finally, you'll ensure that Refugee Action's commitment to removing barriers to power, centring lived experience and anti-racist practice is embedded across all activity.

 About you

You are a self-starter and a builder – someone who takes pride in leaving teams stronger than you found them. You'll be energised rather than daunted by stepping into a team that needs direction and renewed momentum.

You will bring significant leadership experience across at least two areas of Major Donor, Corporate, Trust or Statutory fundraising, with a track record of securing and stewarding gifts of £100k+. You'll be equally confident driving new business as you are managing existing relationships – and you'll be comfortable influencing senior stakeholders internally and externally.

A proactive problem solver, you'll be skilled at bringing colleagues together, navigating complexity, and turning challenges into opportunities. You won't need the path to be clear to move forward — you'll help create it.

To succeed in the role, you will need to demonstrate:

• Leadership experience in at least two areas from Corporate, Major Donor, Trust or Statutory fundraising, delivering gifts with a value of £100k+.
• Experience of leading a team to achieve results and managing staff to ensure they are supported and challenged in their work.
• A strong track record in growing income streams, with success securing multi-year funding at the level of five or six figures+.
• Experience of managing and growing a prospect pipeline.
• Experience of working with multiple stakeholders in a complex, multi-cultural environment.
• Excellent networking skills with the ability to engage and inspire funders.
• Excellent presentation and verbal communication skills, with the ability to represent Refugee Action effectively externally, including making pitches to funders.
• Experience of developing compelling funding proposals, reports, and presentations for a variety of audiences and the ability to work with complex data and materials.
• Experience of applying effective problem-solving when the situation demands.
• Excellent financial and budgetary skills with proven ability to develop budgets, monitor management accounts and understand funder finance reports.
• Commitment to removing barriers to power for people with lived experience, and commitment to anti-racist practices.
• Understanding of how the UK’s hostile refugee protection and asylum system impacts those affected by it. 

Those with lived experience as a refugee are particularly encouraged to apply
