Our client, a significant UK-focused grant-making foundation, is looking to recruit a Grant Manager to manage and develop a portfolio of grants, focusing in particular on enabling disadvantaged children and young people to fulfil their potential (with a focus on education attainment, employability, wellbeing and youth development) and health and wellbeing.
The foundation’s approach to grant-making is distinctive, in that it focuses on capacity building to strengthen the impact, effectiveness and/or sustainability/resilience of non-profit organisations so they can thrive and fulfil their mission and goals.
The role:
Role: Grant Manager
Location: London. This is a full-time role based in London (Cannon Street) and the post holder will need to be in the office at least 2-3 days per week, and available for additional days/travel for site visits and meetings as required.
Salary: £47k - £53k + comprehensive benefits
Reports to: Head of UK Programmes
Working closely with the Head of the UK Programmes, the Grant Manager will play a critical role in the development, delivery, and management of a significant portfolio of grants across the UK foundation’s priority programme areas, with a focus on health and wellbeing and children and young people (working on grant-making across other programme areas - arts, culture and heritage and environmental conservation as required).
The foundation has evolved significantly in recent years, and this is an exciting time to join the foundations as they look to grow and develop grant portfolios, continue to finesse their grant-making strategies, and deepen their understanding of the impact of their grants. While this role is UK focused, the post-holder will get exposure to the grant-making of affiliated foundations that have an international focus.
The candidate:
The successful candidate will have in-depth knowledge of and significant experience within the non-profit sector in the UK, ideally having a combination of grant-making experience as well as direct experience of working within, and/or acting as a consultant to, mid to large sized non-profits that are active in the fields of interest to the foundation.
In terms of subject matter expertise, candidates will have in-depth knowledge and experience within the Disadvantaged Children & Young People, and/or Health & Wellbeing sectors.
Given the foundations’ focus on strengthening the capacity of non-profit organisations, and in particular their financial sustainability/resilience, the ideal candidate will also have the necessary analytical skills and knowledge to assess and analyse organisations as a whole (across factors such as leadership and governance, impact, financial health, business and strategic planning), and will also be adept at analysing how proposed capacity building projects will strengthen the impact/efficiency and/or sustainability/resilience of an organisation.
In addition to excellent analytical skills, the successful candidate will have strong communication and interpersonal skills, with a proven ability to understand and articulate complex information clearly and concisely, especially in written form. Attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple deadlines and priorities will be key to success in this role. Finally, the successful candidate will have a high degree of curiosity, humility and a collaborative style and will be able to proactively manage a diverse workload on your own initiative.
Turn2us is a national charity tackling financial insecurity and its structural causes. We work with co-producers and partners to provide people in financial crisis with the means and agency to get back on their feet, build resilience, move forward with their lives and thrive.
As an equal opportunities employer, we are committed to equity, inclusion and diversity and the value people from different backgrounds bring to a team. If, like us, you believe everyone has the right to have enough to live on, and you are ambitious about eradicating financial insecurity, join us and build your career with a charity dedicated to ensuring dignity and equity for all.
Do you want to help shape how a national charity plans, learns and improves?
This role is the engine of our organisational planning cycle. You'll coordinate our annual operational plan and quarterly Objectives and Key Results, working with senior leaders and Trustees to translate strategic priorities into clear, measurable commitments — then track and report on delivery throughout the year. You'll own the tools that make this possible, and lead the governance and communications that keep the organisation on course.
You'll also be central to our most significant organisational moments: coordinating the Board Away Day and All Staff Day, preparing board reporting, and facilitating workshops that help colleagues engage with our direction of travel.
This isn't a back-office role. You'll be a trusted partner to senior leaders, a confident facilitator at all levels, and someone who genuinely cares about continuous improvement — not just tracking progress, but helping the organisation learn from it.
We offer flexible working patterns, both in terms of hours and remote working. Please note that all employees are required to work from the office a minimum of 1 day a week.
Some roles may be required to be in the office more often than others and this will be agreed with the hiring manager upon starting at Turn2us.
Please note that all job offers are subject to 2 – 3 satisfactory references and a disclosure satisfactory to Turn2us from the Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS).
