About Depaul UK

In the 1980s, high unemployment and steep inflation was contributing to a shocking rise in youth homelessness across London. Thousands of young people were sleeping rough every night, with many areas notoriously dubbed “cardboard cities” due to the visible rise in street homelessness. Appalled by the scenes playing out across the capital, a group of people came together to tackle the challenge head on. Led by Cardinal Basil Hume and Mark McGreevy OBE, in 1989 Depaul UK was born.

What began as a single housing project in North London soon expanded across London, Greater Manchester and the North East of England. Today, Depaul UK provides accommodation, prevention and support services to thousands of marginalised young people across the UK each year.

As our name suggests, the work of Depaul UK has been inspired by St. Vincent de Paul – a man who devoted his life to helping vast numbers of people throughout the 17th century. St. Vincent de Paul’s belief in the intrinsic worth of all people and his commitment to taking bold action remain central to our values today. Depaul UK now forms part of a family of Depaul charities around the world. We each focus on the specific challenges in our own countries, but we’re united by our shared values and mission to end homelessness.

Role: Trusts & Foundations Manager
Salary: £36,825 - £43,430
Hours: 37 hours per week (0.8 considered)
Location: Balsall Heath, Birmingham (hybrid working available with 1-2 days on site)
Benefits: 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays and an extra day off for your birthday. Staff also benefit from enhanced maternity and sick pay, a pension scheme, hybrid working, and access to a healthcare cash plan. Additional support includes wellbeing initiatives, clinical supervision where appropriate, and ongoing training and development opportunities.

About Anawim:

Anawim exists for women who have experienced trauma, abuse, poverty, mental health issues, addiction, and contact with the criminal justice system. They provide a safe, welcoming space and long-term, holistic support, helping women rebuild their confidence, independence, and their futures. Anawim's work spans early intervention through to intensive support, including community sentences, prison support, drop-in provision and one to one casework. Their ambition is to continue expanding their reach and impact beyond Birmingham and across the West Midlands.

About the role:

This business-critical role is responsible for managing and growing income from trusts and foundations, which accounts for around half of overall funding. You'll oversee an established pipeline of funders and deliver high-quality applications in a competitive funding environment.

You will:

• Manage and deliver the trusts and foundations pipeline end-to-end
• Research and identify funding opportunities aligned with organisational priorities
• Write high-quality, compelling applications and reports across a range of funders (from small grants to large multi-year bids)
• Build and maintain relationships with funders
• Work closely with colleagues to translate impact into strong, evidence-based funding cases
• You will be joining a team with strong internal support, including finance, monitoring and evaluation, and fundraising colleagues - giving you the tools and insight needed to succeed.
• Your work will directly enable women to access life-changing support.

About you:

We're looking for someone with:

• A strong track record of securing grant income or writing successful bids 5-6 figures (trusts and foundations or similar)
• Excellent written communication skills, with the ability to produce clear, persuasive applications and reports
• Experience managing multiple deadlines and priorities independently
• The ability to assess opportunities and focus on the most impactful funding prospects
• A collaborative approach and the ability to work across teams
• This role will suit someone who enjoys the practical side of grant fundraising - getting high-quality bids out the door consistently - while still contributing ideas and insight where needed.
• A genuine commitment to social justice and supporting women is essential.

Why join Anawim?

This is more than a fundraising role - it's a chance to support a service that transforms lives every day, helping create a world where women are safe, valued, and equal. You'll take on a high-impact role with strong internal support, a diverse funding portfolio, and the autonomy to make a real difference within a collaborative team. It's an excellent opportunity for someone ready to step up or an experienced trusts and foundations specialist seeking a focused, hands-on role.
