Are you a Christian leader passionate about supporting adults to thrive in the face of challenging circumstances?

At Love Barton, our mission is simple: to see people and families in Barton flourish, whatever their circumstances. Together, we're working towards fewer people facing food insecurity and poor mental health, young people with the self-esteem to make good decisions, and parents and carers with the confidence to see their children thrive.

What we do - and why it's great to work here

Barton is a council estate on the outskirts of Oxford with a tough reputation, but we see something different: a community brimming with talent, kindness and resilience. As a Christian charity established in 2022, we work in close partnership with Barton Community Church to tackle the deep-rooted obstacles - poverty, family breakdown, poor mental health, low self-esteem - that stop people here reaching their potential.

We already run a listening service, a twice-weekly emergency foodbank, and a family food pantry, supporting hundreds of adults and children each year. We're a small, close-knit team, and every person who joins us gets to see the direct impact of their work on real lives in the community.

The role and its impact

The Line is East London's public art trail that connects Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and The O2, following the waterways and the line of the Greenwich Meridian. Our mission is to connect communities and inspire individuals through a dynamic outdoor exhibition programme where everyone can explore art, nature and heritage for free.

Locally rooted and internationally significant, The Line enables artists to connect with people and place in new ways.

• Building and stewarding relationships with funders, donors, patrons and corporate partners
• Setting and managing income targets, budgets and forecasts with the Director and Director of Finance
• Ensuring fundraising complies with relevant legislation and best practice
• Acting as an ambassador for The Line and its mission

• Excellent written, verbal and presentation skills
• Strong understanding of the UK cultural funding landscape and fundraising best practice
• Experience using CRM systems and managing supporter data
• Financial literacy, with experience developing budgets and funding bids
• Commercial awareness and experience negotiating partnership agreements

What we offer

• Salary of £51,000 per annum
• 25 days' holiday plus statutory Bank Holidays
• Contributory NEST pension scheme
• Cycle to work scheme
• Wellbeing support
• Hybrid working (minimum 2 days per week in our canal-side Olympic Park office)

At The Line, we value an open, inclusive and nurturing environment to promote collaboration, creativity and wellbeing. We believe in the transformative impact of art and nature, and are committed to increasing access to the arts and challenging barriers to participation.

Equal opportunities

We are committed to equality and diversity within our workforce and in all opportunities. Our recruitment process is open to all, but we would particularly like to encourage applications from people from Black, Asian and ethnically diverse backgrounds, those who identify as LGBTQ+, those from lower socio-economic backgrounds and those who identify as disabled, as these groups are currently underrepresented in the cultural sector more widely.
