About RMC

RMC Charity (RMC) is an established, award winning, regional charity working across the West Midlands to support newcomers and people facing barriers to accessing services, rights and opportunities.

RMC is a growing and ambitious organisation. As we continue to develop our services, partnerships and organisational infrastructure, we are strengthening the support available to our Senior Leadership Team (SLT) and Trustee Board.

We’re also embarking on an exciting new asset development project, which will represent a significant long-term investment in the organisation and its future. The project is expected to be sizeable and complex, involving a range of external parties, professional advisers, stakeholders and partners, and will develop over the next two years and beyond.

The Senior Executive Assistant will play an important role in supporting the SLT through this period, including helping to coordinate meetings, information, actions and communications involving external parties.

About the Role:

The Senior Executive Assistant will provide high-level executive, governance and organisational support to the SLT, working particularly closely with the CEO and Executive Director of Services.

The postholder will manage complex diaries and relationships, support the effective operation of the Trustee Board, prepare high-quality information and reports, and ensure that important actions and commitments do not get lost.

The successful candidate will have the confidence to work with senior leaders and managers, trustees and external stakeholders while maintaining the highest levels of discretion and professionalism.

They will also be someone who is prepared to "keep the executives honest" constructively challenging where appropriate, identifying gaps, following up on commitments and helping the SLT to anticipate and manage organisational risks.

• Provide high-level diary management and executive support to the CEO and Executive Director of Services
• Proactively manage complex and competing priorities, identifying diary conflicts and resolving them before they become problems
• Help executives prioritise meetings and commitments according to organisational importance and strategic priorities
• Ensure executives are properly prepared for important meetings by coordinating papers, briefings, agendas and relevant information

• Maintain an overview of key milestones, deadlines, and dependencies associated with the project and ensure that the relevant members of the SLT are appropriately briefed

• Draft, edit and coordinate reports, briefing papers, presentations and other executive-level documentation

• Sharp Objectivity - You will be able to separate facts from assumptions, remain impartial and provide senior leaders with an honest and clear view of an issue – even when that view may be uncomfortable
• Strategic Thinking - You will understand the bigger picture. You will not simply manage diaries and actions; you will understand why they matter, how they connect to RMC's priorities and where a missed action or emerging issue could create wider organisational risk

You will be empathetic, but able to remain objective. You will be comfortable dealing with detail while keeping sight of the wider strategic picture.

Every child deserves to feel safe, valued and capable of growth, whatever their starting point. That's the belief Little Flowers Club was built on.

We're a not-for-profit providing trauma-informed support for children and young people with SEN and complex, overlapping needs, through our Alternative Provision service in schools and settings across Gloucestershire, and our Stay & Play holiday clubs, giving SEN children a safe, sensory-friendly space during school closures.

Now we're looking for a Trusts and Grants Manager to secure the funding that makes this work possible.

The role

This is a brand-new, standalone fundraising role, and a genuinely flexible one. You'll own the trusts, foundations and statutory funding pipeline from end to end: spotting the right opportunities, writing applications that land, and keeping funders close so they come back again.

You'll work directly with our CEO to shape an income strategy built on trusts, grants and statutory funds, with real scope to make your mark from day one.

It's an ideal fit if you're an experienced freelance or part-time fundraiser looking for a role with genuine autonomy and immediate impact.

What you'll do

• Build and manage a trusts and grants pipeline, keeping applications and reports on track
• Research funders that align with our services and strategic goals
• Assess eligibility and funding guidelines to prioritise the strongest opportunities
• Write compelling applications, proposals and reports that bring our impact to life
• Keep clean records of applications, outcomes and reporting deadlines
• Track funding performance against targets, flagging gaps early
• Steward funder relationships to build long-term, repeat support
• Work with the team to pull together impact data, case studies and programme detail for bids

What you'll bring

• A proven track record of winning five- and six-figure grants from trusts, foundations and/or statutory funders
• Strong bid writing and reporting skills
• The organisation to manage multiple deadlines independently
• Confident written and verbal communication
• Relationship-building skills that put funders at ease
• A good head for budgets and project finances
• Comfort with Microsoft Office and fundraising CRMs
• The self-motivation to work independently in a small team

Nice to have: experience fundraising for SEN, youth or community services; CRM implementation experience; knowledge of Gloucestershire's funding landscape.

Charity People is a forward thinking, inclusive organisation that actively and deliberately promotes equity, diversity and inclusion. We know organisations thrive when inclusion is at the forefront. We evidence our commitment by matching charity needs with the skills and experience of candidates irrespective of background e.g. age, disability (including hidden disabilities), gender, gender identity or gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, or sexual orientation.

Are you an experienced Business or Process Analyst who enjoys untangling complex systems, understanding how data really works and finding better ways to connect the dots?
 

Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity is looking for a Process Analyst to help us build a clearer, more joined-up understanding of how data moves through our organisation.

This is a hands-on, data-focused role. You'll work across systems, teams and processes to map how information is captured, transformed and used; identify where things break down; and help create clearer rules and more sustainable ways of working.

You'll need to be comfortable getting into the detail of data, asking challenging questions and working closely with technical and non-technical colleagues to turn complexity into practical solutions.
 

Salary

The salary for this role is £48,192 per annum and this is a 12 month fixed term contract.
 

We operate a hybrid working policy of a minimum of 2 days per week in the office.

In line with our EDI strategy and Total Reward policy, we calculate our salaries based on benchmarking data across the charity sector. To ensure fairness for existing staff and new joiners, we do not offer salaries above the advertised rate.

Key Responsibilities

• Build an end-to-end view of our data landscape, documenting how systems connect, how data moves between them and where key dependencies sit.
• Map complex data flows and business processes across platforms including Salesforce, Snowflake, Marketing Cloud and other connected systems.
• Identify duplication, manual workarounds, data quality issues and points of failure, digging into root causes rather than simply fixing individual problems.
• Help establish clear and consistent business definitions, data rules and governance across areas such as matching, deduplication, consent, retention and data ownership.
• Work with stakeholders to understand the business need before considering the technology solution, constructively challenging existing assumptions and ways of working.
• Translate complex business and data requirements into clear process maps, requirements, user stories and documentation that technical teams can use.
• Work closely with Data Management, Data Engineering, Salesforce and business teams to turn findings into practical improvements across systems and processes.
• Support new integrations, testing and implementation, ensuring changes work effectively across the whole data lifecycle rather than solving one part of the process in isolation.
• Create clear documentation that strengthens organisational knowledge and reduces reliance on individual or undocumented technical knowledge.

Skills, Knowledge and Expertise

• Experience working as a Business Analyst, Process Analyst, Data Management Analyst or in a similar role involving complex systems and data.
• Strong experience mapping and documenting end-to-end business processes, system interactions or data flows.
• Experience working across integrated systems such as CRM, data warehouse, marketing automation or other enterprise platforms.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to investigate problems, identify root causes and recommend sustainable improvements.
• An understanding of data management concepts such as data quality, governance, business rules, data lineage and ownership.
• Strong stakeholder management and facilitation skills, with the confidence to ask challenging questions and constructively challenge established ways of working.
• Ability to translate between business and technical teams, making complex requirements clear and understandable.
• Strong documentation and process-mapping skills, with the ability to bring structure and clarity to ambiguous or complex problems.
• Experience with Salesforce, Snowflake or Marketing Cloud would be useful, but specific platform expertise isn't essential.
