We believe that no family should have to live this on their own and we are determined to walk alongside every family through life, death and beyond.

At Tŷ Hafan we are experts at caring for children with life-shortening conditions and our services support families in our hospice, in community settings, local hospitals and in families’ homes.

Our colleagues, volunteers and supporters are crucial in the delivery of our ambition – we know that everyone plays a huge part in making sure that no family faces their child’s short life alone.

Our Vision: A Wales where every child with a life-shortening condition lives a fulfilling life, supported with the compassion and specialist care they and their family need.

Our Purpose: No family should have to face the unimaginable loss of their child alone. With children and families at the heart of all we do, we provide free care and support in our hospice and in the community, offering a lifeline throughout the child’s short life, at end of life, through bereavement and beyond.

Our Values: At Tŷ Hafan we make a difference by living our values:  Demonstrating Compassion, Providing Excellent Service, Working Together and Taking Ownership.

It will take a society to beat dementia. And every successful bid helps make that possible.
At Alzheimer's Society, we believe no one should face dementia alone. Every day, our services provide vital support, information and hope to people affected by dementia.

We're looking for a talented and motivated Bid Writer to join our Partnerships and Business Development team, working 35 hours per week on a permanent basis.

This is an opportunity to use your writing skills to create meaningful change. The bids you develop could secure funding for life-changing services, strengthen support in local communities and help more people access the support they need when it matters most.

Working as part of our friendly and high-performing Bid and Tender team, you'll collaborate with colleagues from across the organisation to develop compelling tenders and funding applications that demonstrate the impact of our work and the value of our services.

This is a home based role with occasional travel across England, Wales and Northern Ireland, including some overnight stays when required (travel expenses covered).

You will use your skills to help secure the funding that enables Alzheimer's Society to support more people affected by dementia.

Working closely with colleagues across the organisation, you'll develop compelling tender submissions and funding applications, identify new opportunities and contribute to the growth and development of services that make a real difference in local communities.

Your days will be varied and meaningful. You might be...

- Writing a tender that could secure funding for a service supporting hundreds of people affected by dementia.
- Meeting with colleagues to understand the difference their service makes and translating that impact into a compelling bid response.
- Reviewing commissioning priorities and identifying opportunities to expand our reach into new communities.
- Developing service budgets with finance colleagues to ensure services remain sustainable and deliver value.
- Supporting teams to prepare for commissioner presentations and helping them tell their story with confidence.
- Building partnerships and relationships that help us reach even more people who need support.

You'll be joining a supportive, collaborative and knowledgeable team who genuinely enjoy working together. We share ideas, celebrate successes and support one another through challenges. There will be opportunities to develop your skills, broaden your experience and build your career within a national charity making a real difference.

We know that great people don't always meet every requirement on paper.

Please don't be put off from applying if your experience looks a little different. Transferable skills, potential and lived experience are important to us too. If you're excited by the role and believe you could make a positive contribution, we'd love to hear from you.

About you

You enjoy making sense of complex information and turning it into clear, compelling content that inspires confidence and action.

Whether that's developing a tender response, building a business case or shaping a funding proposal, you're someone who can see the bigger picture while keeping a close eye on the detail.

Organised and proactive, you're comfortable managing competing priorities, building strong relationships and bringing people together to achieve a shared goal.

Experience of writing bids, tenders or funding applications would be valuable, but just as important is your ability to communicate persuasively, think creatively and approach challenges with curiosity and determination.

Most importantly, you'll be motivated by the opportunity to make a difference, helping secure the funding that enables us to support more people affected by dementia.

About Us

Dementia is the UK's biggest killer. One in three people born in the UK today will develop dementia in their lifetime.

At Alzheimer's Society, we're the UK's leading dementia charity and the only one to tackle all aspects of dementia by giving help and hope to people living with dementia today and in the future. We give vital support to people facing the most frightening times of their lives, while also funding groundbreaking research and campaigning to make dementia the priority it should be.

Together with our supporters, we're working towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives.

Our values make sure that our focus is clear for the challenges and opportunities ahead and remind us of what we all stand for.

Our commitment to Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging

We need to ensure the voices around our table better reflect and understand the communities we exist to serve. We strongly encourage individuals to apply who have a disability, impairment or health condition or individuals who identify as Black, Asian or from another minority ethnic background, as these groups are currently under-represented at Alzheimer's Society.

We want everyone we work with, as a colleague, volunteer, supporter, or someone we support, to feel included and that they belong at Alzheimer's Society.

Our Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy here along with our internal employee forum and Employee Lived Experience network groups help us promote inclusion and belonging, becoming an engaged and inclusive organisation for all our people.

Our hiring process

During your recruitment process we want to make sure that you bring your whole self and can be at your best. We are working hard to ensure our recruitment process is as inclusive as possible, so please do inform us of your experience and anything you think we could do better by completing our candidate survey when you apply.

To ensure fairness and consistency to select the best candidate for this role, all our applications are anonymised up until an interview has been confirmed. We recognise the benefits of AI, but if you're considering using it to submit your application, we encourage you to reflect on the value it truly adds. AI tools often lack the personal touch and authenticity that set candidates apart. We want to hear your unique perspective, experiences, and skills, so we encourage you to showcase them in your own voice.

We try to avoid closing roles early where possible, however if we receive a high volume of applications, we may close earlier than the advertised closing date. Should this occur, we will aim to provide you with at least 48 hours' notice.

We are committed to safer recruitment and ensuring the welfare of those we work with, due to the nature of some of our roles, we might need to carry out a Criminal Record Check at the relevant level. You can read more information via our Website.

Giving back to you

Our employees work hard every day to make a true difference in people's lives. We are proud to support them with a range of benefits, recognition and many options for working agilely, all contributing to a strong work life balance. We also have various learning programmes to support you in your development and help you grow to realise your potential and shape a career with Alzheimer's Society.

Shape the future of one of the world's most influential human rights movements.
At a time when human rights are increasingly contested, Amnesty International UK has a clear ambition: to build public support for human rights, strengthen people-powered movements and create lasting change.
To achieve that ambition, the organisation is seeking an outstanding leader to join its Senior Leadership Team as Director of Campaigns and Communications.
One of the most significant leadership opportunities in the sector today, the postholder will report directly to the Chief Executive and will lead a large directorate spanning campaigns, communications, public engagement, media, policy, research and political relations, helping to shape how one of the world's most recognised movements engages the public, mobilises supporters, influences decision makers and drives social change.

The Opportunity
Human rights organisations face a fundamental challenge.
Facts alone are not enough.
In an increasingly complex and polarised world, organisations must connect evidence with emotion, inspire people to act, build movements and create the public mandate required for lasting political and social change.
As Director of Campaigns and Communications, you will help define how Amnesty International UK meets that challenge. You will shape the organisation's public voice, influence its strategic direction and lead work that reaches millions of people across the UK.

You will join at a pivotal moment as AIUK seeks to:

• Build broader public support for human rights
• Grow and diversify its movement
• Reach and engage new generations of supporters
• Increase its influence in public and political debate
• Strengthen the integration between campaigning, communications, activism and movement building
• Create bold, creative and audience-focused approaches to change

About the Role
As a member of the SLT, you will contribute to the overall leadership of AIUK and play a central role in shaping organisational strategy and culture.
You will lead a substantial and highly talented directorate, bringing together expertise across:

• Campaigns and political relations
• Communications and public engagement
• Media, PR and artist relations
• Policy and research
• Nations and regions

You will create greater alignment across these functions, ensuring they operate as a coherent whole in pursuit of AIUK's strategic priorities.
You will also represent AIUK externally, building relationships across the Amnesty movement, civil society, media, politics and public life, and helping to position AIUK as a leading voice in shaping the future of human rights in the UK.

Who We Are Looking For
We are seeking an experienced and values-driven leader with the credibility, judgement and vision to operate at executive level.
You may currently be:

• A Director of Campaigns, Communications, Public Engagement or Advocacy.
• An Executive Director leading large-scale influencing or movement building functions.
• A senior sector leader with responsibility for public mobilisation, communications, campaigning or political influence.

You will be adept at operating strategically, leading through complexity and building alignment across diverse stakeholders.
You will bring:

• Significant leadership experience within a complex organisation
• A track record of delivering ambitious campaigns, communications or public engagement strategies at scale
• Experience leading large multidisciplinary teams
• The ability to build organisational alignment around a clear strategic vision
• Strong political and external awareness
• A sophisticated understanding of how public narratives shape social and political change
• An inclusive and collaborative leadership style
• A commitment to anti-racist practice, equity and human rights

Leadership at AIUK
This role requires both conviction and humility.
You will bring fresh thinking, challenge established assumptions and help AIUK adapt to a changing environment. At the same time, you will understand how to build trust, bring people with you and create conditions for others to succeed.
We are looking for a leader who can combine strategic clarity with empathy, collaboration and courage.
Someone who is comfortable making difficult decisions, navigating ambiguity and leading through influence rather than hierarchy.

Why Join AIUK?
Few leadership roles offer this combination of influence, visibility and purpose.
You will have the opportunity to:

• Shape the future direction of one of the world's most recognised human rights organisations
• Influence public and political debate on some of the defining issues of our time
• Lead work that strengthens democratic participation and social justice
• Help build a broader, more diverse and more powerful movement for human rights
• Work alongside exceptional colleagues across the UK and the global Amnesty movement
• Leave a lasting legacy on the future of human rights advocacy in the UK

This is a rare opportunity to lead at scale, shape public narratives and help define the next chapter of Amnesty International UK.
If you believe in the power of people to create change, and have the leadership experience to help make that change happen, we would welcome a conversation.

Amnesty International UK's commitment to colleagues
Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Anti-Racism (IDEA) are at the core of our values. We want to be an organisation that tackles structural inequality and prejudice as well as be an actively anti-racist organisation. This means taking a meaningful and equitable approach to supporting and developing you and others during your time with us.

New colleagues receive:

• 27 days leave annually (29 after five years), as well as bank holidays (pro-rated for part time) and 3 wellbeing days

About the Role

A home is more than a property.  It’s the foundation for independence, security and belonging.

As Housing Manager at Norwood, you’ll provide a high-quality, compliant and person-centred housing management service across a portfolio of our supported living properties.

You’ll take ownership of the full tenancy journey, from allocation and sign-up through to tenancy sustainment and move-on.  But this role is about much more than managing agreements and processes.

You’ll build relationships with the people we support, understand what matters to them and help ensure their homes are safe, well maintained and appropriate to their individual needs.  You’ll conduct regular tenancy visits and property inspections, support people to understand their rights and responsibilities, and help resolve issues before they put a tenancy at risk.

Working closely with our Property and Operations teams, Registered Managers, families, advocates and external partners, you’ll bring together strong housing practice with an understanding of the individual.

Your impact will be clear: sustainable tenancies, safer homes, greater independence and a positive experience for the people who call them home.

About Norwood

Founded in 1795, Norwood is the oldest Jewish charity in the UK.  We support and empower neurodiverse children and their families and people with neurodevelopmental disabilities to live their best lives.

At Norwood, you will make a real difference every day.  You will be part of a supportive and inclusive team where kindness is shown in how we care, respect shapes how we work together, belonging ensures everyone feels valued, and empowerment enables people to thrive.

We invest in your growth, care about your wellbeing, and give you the pride of knowing your work changes lives.

Who We Are Looking For

You’ll be an experienced housing professional who understands that good housing management starts with the person.

You’ll bring strong tenancy management experience and a sound understanding of housing law, regulation and compliance.  You’ll be confident managing the practical realities of a housing portfolio, including tenancy agreements, rent accounts, arrears, voids, repairs, inspections, tenancy breaches and disputes.

Alongside that technical knowledge, you’ll know how to build trust.

You’ll be able to adapt your communication to individual needs, explain sometimes complex housing matters clearly and make sure the people we support understand their tenancy, their rights and the choices available to them.

You’ll be comfortable working collaboratively with support teams, families, advocates, social workers, local authorities, housing providers and other partners to resolve issues and achieve positive outcomes.

Most importantly, you’ll combine professional judgement with a person-centred approach, recognising that behind every tenancy is someone’s home, independence and sense of security.

Your Day to Day

You’ll:

• Take ownership of a defined portfolio of supported living properties and manage the full tenancy lifecycle
• Conduct regular visits with tenants to review their tenancy, identify emerging issues and support tenancy sustainment
• Carry out property inspections during scheduled visits, identifying repairs, property condition and health and safety concerns
• Ensure tenancy agreements, records and documentation remain accurate, up to date and fit for purpose
• Deliver accessible tenancy sign-ups using approaches appropriate to individual communication needs, including easy-read information and visual aids
• Help tenants understand their rights, responsibilities and security of tenure
• Monitor rent accounts and manage arrears proactively
• Support tenants with Housing Benefit applications and other relevant benefits, including liaison or signposting to specialist agencies where appropriate
• Manage tenancy breaches, anti-social behaviour and disputes proportionately and with a trauma-informed approach
• Oversee allocations, voids and move-on arrangements
• Work with Property Services to make sure repairs and maintenance are addressed promptly
• Help ensure homes are safe, compliant, well maintained and appropriate for neurodiverse needs, including sensory considerations
• Build strong relationships with tenants, families and advocates
• Facilitate tenant engagement and ensure the tenant voice influences how services develop
• Promote independence, participation and community inclusion
• Identify and respond appropriately to safeguarding concerns
• Work collaboratively with social workers, support teams and other professionals
• Develop relationships with local authorities, housing associations, registered providers, private landlords and benefits agencies
• Contribute to audits, inspections, reporting and continuous service improvement

You will first and foremost be a people manager, with the skills and experience of navigating operational delivery from budgets, resourcing and risk, for example, to ensuring quality delivery of our work and supporting a culture that enables people to thrive.

You could be working across any of our programmes and developing areas of work but an interest in our current funding programmes and areas of development is essential. If you have a deep understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing communities across the UK, these roles are for you.

All managers will have blended roles that combine people and some operational responsibilities, as well as involvement in developing areas of work. The variety of responsibilities could include:

• Line managing and developing Funding Officers, supporting performance, wellbeing and ensuring their continuous development and professional growth
• Ensuring operational excellence through resource and operational management: including across our funding programmes and partnerships, including managing budgets, risk and reporting  
• Overseeing the end-to-end funding programme process: including monitoring programme performance, assuring the quality of funding recommendations and decisions and ensuring a high-quality and consistent experience for customers and stakeholders.
• Contributing to the development of new funding approaches, partnerships and investment opportunities.
• Working closely with teams and colleagues across The Fund to ensure our work is connected into and adds value.
• Championing The Fund's values and behaviours, promoting inclusion, collaboration and continuous improvement.

You will need to work collectively and very closely with the other managers each day as to how responsibilities and workstream leads are agreed and managed.

We're looking for people with practical experience of the funding and grant-making environment, who can bring their sound judgement relating to this to the team. You will also bring strong analytical, project and stakeholder and relationship management skills, alongside the ability to be adaptable and comfortably work at pace.

You’ll be joining a dynamic and welcoming geographically dispersed team, working with hugely important and fascinating projects that are responding to and addressing a wide range of topics across the Fund’s four community-led missions.

Due to our dispersed nature as a team, it is expected that there will be occasional travel in order to connect with colleagues, stakeholders and projects. This is likely to be one to two occasions per month.

Interview details:

• Date: Week commencing 21 September
• Format: Online
• Location: UK Wide

We have a hybrid approach to working, work pattern and location will be agreed with the successful candidate. The role can be based at any of our UK offices, these are Belfast, Birmingham, Cardiff, Exeter, Glasgow, Leeds, London, Manchester and Newcastle.

We will be hosting a briefing session  on Wednesday 19th August at 10:00 am. This is a great opportunity to learn more about the role, gain insight into the team and key responsibilities, and ask any questions you may have. To register or ask any questions please email us.

In 2025 alone, we had 1,911 individual visits and 1,021 therapy sessions - entirely through the dedication of our volunteer team. We are currently renovating our new centre, and we want to use it to reach further into our community than ever before. This is the first paid role in our history.

About the Role

As our first Executive Director, you will be the single point of accountability between our Board of Trustees and the day-to-day operation of the Centre - working alongside our (voluntary) Centre Manager and (voluntary) Volunteer Manager to support their roles, not duplicate them. You'll lead our strategy delivery, guide the charity's move into its new home, and oversee a service redesign informed by a fresh programme of visitor, volunteer and community research.

About You

You already know how to do this job - you've held a senior, accountable position in a charity or comparable organisation and can bring that experience from day one. You're confident reporting to a board of trustees, comfortable getting things done, and able to win the trust of a highly experienced, long-standing volunteer team through competence and credibility, not authority alone.

Key Activity Areas

• Financial management – budgeting, financial controls, and reporting to the Board and Treasurer

• Governance & best practice – supporting trustees to discharge their statutory duties; maintaining the policy suite and risk register

• HR & people leadership – supporting our entire volunteer and therapist team; communication is key to our volunteers

• Fundraising – write and lead on a fundraising strategy, implement new funding streams and be the ‘face of Pickering’ – local networking will be essential

• Change management – leading the transition to our new centre and evolving service model with care and consultation

• Compliance – safeguarding, health and safety, GDPR, and other regulatory requirements

Qualifications - Desirable

All the below are not necessary qualifications but would assist with this role:

• CIPD qualification, or equivalent hands-on HR experience

• A recognised governance qualification (e.g. Chartered Governance Institute) or completion of a charity leadership programme or similar

• Financial management experience – a qualification would be useful but not essential

• Safeguarding lead training

Experience and Competencies — Essential

• Senior leadership experience with genuine authority and accountability in a charity or comparable mission-led organisation

• A track record of reporting to and working with a board of trustees or non-executive directors

• A track record of leading organisational change, with evidence it was genuinely adopted

• Sound financial literacy - budgets, management accounts, financial controls, dealing with auditors

• Working knowledge of safeguarding, risk management and regulatory compliance

• Excellent written and verbal communication, including board-level reporting as well as the ability to speak in public

• Experience making a leadership role pay for itself, through income generation, cost savings, or both

• A genuine, demonstrable commitment to Pickering's mission

Experience and Competencies — Desirable

• Fundraising experience across grants, trusts, community fundraising and corporate partnerships

• Experience within the cancer support, wider healthcare, or hospice sector

• Lived experience of cancer, personally or through supporting someone close to you

• Experience leading a refresh of a brand or a rebrand, service redesign, or physical relocation of services

• Familiarity with Tunbridge Wells and the surrounding local community

Safeguarding

This role involves working with adults who may be vulnerable by virtue of serious illness. The successful candidate will be required to undergo an enhanced DBS check and satisfactory reference checks before appointment, and will act as, or oversee, the charity's designated safeguarding lead.

Equality, Diversity and Inclusion

Pickering is committed to equal opportunity for all and welcomes applications from all suitably qualified candidates regardless of age, disability, gender reassignment, marital or civil partnership status, pregnancy or maternity, race, religion or belief, sex, or sexual orientation.
