The Talent Set is pleased to be working with the Henry Smith Foundation to recruit a Grants, Database and Processes Coordinator on an 18-month fixed-term contract. This role sits within the Grant Operations Team and provides essential coordination, system support, and process improvement across the grant-making lifecycle.
When grant-making systems work well, funding reaches the organisations that need it, and those organisations can reach the people they help without delay. When they don't, the gaps are felt by real people waiting for real support.
Working closely with the Grants Database and Processes Manager, this role supports the accuracy, usability, and effectiveness of grant systems and processes, while also providing practical operational support to colleagues, applicants, and grant holders.

A rare opportunity to lead a values-driven children's charity through an exciting chapter of its story.
The Kids Network is a growing charity with an ambitious five-year strategy and a decade of impact behind us.

You're well-suited to the interim context. You’re able to build trust quickly, make an impact from day one, and build on what's already working well. You're comfortable with a varied workload and have the experience to make good decisions for the benefit of the children we work with.

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?
