Actively Interviewing
This organisation is scheduling interviews as applications come in. They're ready to hire as soon as they find the right person. Don't miss your opportunity, apply now!
About Us
We are a high impact, specialist literacy charity supporting the children who need the most help to close their literacy gap. The attainment gap is now the widest it has been for a decade, and early, high quality literacy intervention is essential to give children from disadvantaged backgrounds the opportunity to make the most of their full potential.
Our specially recruited and trained tutors equip children with all the foundational literacy skills, not just reading but also comprehension, writing, listening and speaking. We achieve significant outcomes: children catch up to where they should be and grow in confidence and resilience, able to step ahead and engage with learning and life.
With a clear focus on our specialist literacy intervention work, the charity has doubled in size over recent years, and we are now planning for the next stage of our growth. Funding is key, and we are looking to appoint a Director of Funding Development to take our fundraising to the next level.
The Opportunity
This is a newly created senior management role reporting directly to the CEO. We see it as critical to our future fundraising success and to the overall development of the charity.
This is a role for a new business ‘seeker’: we need a commercially minded individual with a strong track record of securing new, significant funding opportunities; proactive and creative prospecting; building a credible pipeline; and setting and meeting ambitious targets.
As well as being able to confidently represent the charity and evidence significant relationship-building skills across all funding streams, the successful candidate will work purposefully and collaboratively with senior management colleagues and our Trustee Board, and will have line management responsibility for the fundraising team.
We are looking for someone who can become part of our longer-term fundraising vision on a permanent basis, helping to shape and deliver sustainable growth. We recognise, however, that the right person may be looking for an interim opportunity, therefore we are also open to a shorter-term appointment for a candidate who can deliver a significant, measurable impact in that time.
What You Will Do
• Develop and implement an overarching income generation strategy, setting ambitious annual and 3-year fundraising targets
• Deliver and convert new, significant funding opportunities across corporates, trusts and foundations, and high net worth individuals
• Build and proactively manage a realistic pipeline of potentially transformational funders
• Develop compelling bids and proposals that accurately reflect the charity’s core messaging and delivery priorities
• Provide strong direction and line management to other team members across all funding streams
• Work closely with the CEO on the development of a robust, long-term funding plan
• Effectively represent the charity at external events, meetings and conferences
What We Are Looking For
You will bring:
• Senior fundraising experience with a proven track record of securing significant, transformational funding, not necessarily from a charity background
• Experience across multiple funding streams, in particular high value trusts and foundations, corporates and major donors
• A proactive, creative and ambitious approach to prospect identification and relationship development
• Confident and effective communication skills, being able to represent the charity credibly at the highest levels
• Strong writing skills, with the ability to produce nuanced, compelling and tailored proposals
• Experience of line managing a fundraising team
• A collaborative and positive outlook, with the resilience to thrive in a growing organisation
An interest in education, literacy, and equality of opportunity is highly desirable, as is an existing network of high-level funder contacts.
How to Apply
To apply, please send a detailed CV and a covering letter of no more than 2 pages, explaining why you are interested in this role and how your experience meets the person specification.
We want to hear about your individual experience, judgement and communication style in your own words. We recognise the efficiencies AI tools can bring but please do not use generative AI to substantially develop your application.
The closing date for applications is 15th October 2026, however interviews will happen on a rolling basis therefore early applications are advised.
We are managing this recruitment process directly and do not require support from recruitment agencies or third-party suppliers. We kindly request that recruitment agencies do not contact us regarding this vacancy or submit candidate details on behalf of applicants.
The Children’s Literacy Charity is committed to promoting equal opportunities in employment. You and any job applicants will receive equal treatment regardless of age, disability, gender reassignment, marital or civil partner status, pregnancy or maternity, race, colour, nationality, ethnic or national origin, religion or belief, sex or sexual orientation (Protected Characteristics).
Thank you for taking the time to apply for this role. We aim to reply to all job applicants, however if we receive a very high number of applications then we may not be able to respond. If you do not hear from us within two weeks of the closing date, then we regret to advise that this means that your application has not been selected to progress through to the next stage of our recruitment process.

Head of Housing Development
Location: London/Hybrid
Salary: £80,000.00 per annum
Weekly Hours: 35
Reference: YMC1237090
About YMCA
Founded in England in 1844, YMCA today is a global Movement and the world's largest youth-focused charity, reaching more than 58 million people across 119 countries. In England & Wales, we are a federation of 80 local YMCAs, based in over 700 communities across 168 local authorities, supporting young people and communities to reach their potential. We are also the largest provider of supported accommodation in the country — a role that puts housing at the heart of our mission.
YMCA England & Wales is a £23 million organisation of more than 400 colleagues, supporting the wider Federation. Combined, the Movement's turnover across England & Wales reached £386 million in 2025–26. As we grow our income and impact, housing is one of our clearest opportunities for scale: through our 10,000 Homes ambition, we are building a national platform that will let local YMCAs deliver affordable and supported housing faster, at lower risk, and with a unified voice. As we take this ambition forward, we are seeking an established and inspirational Head of Housing Development to lead one of the most pivotal roles in our organisation.
About The Opportunity
This is a brand-new role. Our Head of Housing Development will establish and lead our national Housing Centre of Expertise: the capacity- and capability-building engine behind our 10,000 Homes ambition. This is not a scheme-delivery role — local YMCAs build, own and operate their own homes. Instead, you will mobilise the talent and resources of the Federation around a shared platform for scale: guiding local YMCAs from feasibility through to investment-readiness, brokering the partnerships and expertise no single YMCA could assemble alone, and leading a single national conversation with strategic partners including Homes England, the Greater London Authority and Welsh Government. You will establish a panel of preferred development partners, support funding bids, and help YMCAs learn from one another rather than rebuilding expertise scheme by scheme. Success will be measured by the pipeline and capability you build across the movement, not by any single project.
About You
You bring real knowledge of social and affordable housing development, including structuring significant financing models, grant regimes and the regulatory landscape, alongside hands-on experience of property development projects and securing private and public-sector funding. You know how to build strategic partnerships, convene and influence people you do not manage, and translate strategy into coordinated action across independent partners. Experience mobilising change across a federated, membership or infrastructure organisation would be a strong advantage, combined with an in-depth knowledge of Homes England, Greater London Authority and Welsh Government or similar agencies. Above all, you are a natural relationship-builder who can represent YMCA with confidence at a senior, national level, while helping local YMCAs move further and faster together than they could alone.
YMCA is the world's oldest and largest youth charity. Collectively, we support 402,501 young people across 708 communities in England and Wales.

Human Kind exists because vulnerability isn't the exception — it's part of being human. At some point, all of us need connection, kindness, and somewhere we belong. We're a community organisation built around a welcoming café, a programme of events and activities, and — soon — a peer-led listening service, all designed to make sure nobody in Billericay has to face difficult moments alone.
We're now looking for an experienced operational leader to help take Human Kind into its next chapter.
The Opportunity
This is a genuine leadership role, not a café management job. You'll be responsible for the people, programmes and day-to-day operations that make Human Kind work — from our community café and food offer, to family activities, events, partnerships and volunteers.
You'll move between the strategic and the practical: one morning working with trustees on priorities, the next developing a team member, the next solving an operational problem or meeting a potential partner.
You won't be expected to do everything yourself. You'll build a team where people understand their responsibilities and take ownership — while you focus on the decisions, relationships and direction that only you can provide.
Be clear-eyed about what the first year looks like: it's about getting a firm grip on the operation, building structure and earning trust — before it becomes about bigger ambitions. If you enjoy bringing order to a busy, people-first environment and want to see the results of your work in your own community, this is a rare opportunity to make a lasting difference.
About Human Kind
Human Kind is a community organisation based in the heart of Billericay. We believe food, connection and kindness can bring people together and build a stronger community. Our work includes:
- A welcoming, pay-it-forward community café.
- Family and children's activities.
- Community events and regular groups.
- Support for older people, carers and anyone experiencing isolation.
- A growing peer-support and listening offer.
- Partnerships with local schools, charities and businesses.
- A large and active volunteer community.
We've built strong foundations. We're now focused on the leadership, structure and sustainable operating model needed to take Human Kind into its next phase — and this role is central to that.
What You'll Do
- Lead our café, food offer and community programme, working through your team of supervisors and coordinators.
- Build a confident, accountable team that takes real ownership of its areas.
- Make sure volunteers are a genuine, valued part of how we work — not just extra help.
- Manage budgets and costs with a commercial eye, while protecting what makes Human Kind special.
- Build relationships with local schools, partners and organisations that extend our reach.
- Help shape a new listening and peer-support service as it launches.
- Give trustees clear visibility of performance, risks and opportunities.
Your First Year
Your early months will be about getting a clear, honest picture of what's working and what needs to change, and establishing who owns what across the team. From there, you'll strengthen your team's ownership, tighten up reporting and systems, and start building toward a more coordinated, sustainable programme of activity — bringing your own ideas and experience to how that takes shape.
What We're Looking For
- Significant leadership and operational management experience — you may come from a charity, hospitality, community, education or customer-facing background.
- A track record of developing and holding managers or team leaders accountable.
- Confidence with budgets, costs and commercial decision-making.
- The ability to work with real autonomy — comfortable bringing your own structure and judgement rather than waiting to be told what to do.
- Strong relationship-building skills, with the confidence to have difficult conversations when needed.
- A genuine connection to what Human Kind stands for.
Experience with volunteers, café or hospitality operations, or charity-sector leadership would be a bonus, but isn't essential — what matters most is your ability to lead people and build something better.

We help high-impact nonprofits run brilliantly - now we need someone to do the same for us. You'll own Impact Ops' finances, payroll, contracts and compliance, reporting straight to the founder.
Summary
Impact Ops is looking for a Finance & Operations Manager to join our team. This is a newly created, internal-facing role: rather than working on client portfolios, you’ll own the financial and operational machinery of Impact Ops itself. The salary range for this role is £50,000–£60,000 GBP, depending on experience, with flexibility for exceptional candidates.
We’re looking for a qualified accountant who is genuinely happy to be hands-on, someone who can handle a corporation tax return and a contracting in the same afternoon and see both as worth doing well. If you want breadth, autonomy, and a role where you can see the whole organisation from the inside, we’d love to hear from you. The deadline to apply is 11 October 2026.
About Impact Ops
Impact Ops is an independent organization providing finance and operations support to high-impact nonprofits. Our services include bookkeeping, financial reporting, accounts payable, payroll, recruitment, entity setup, due diligence, and systems implementation. We serve over 50 clients globally, spanning cause areas including global health, animal welfare, AI safety, and climate.
We’re a remote-first team based across the world. We’re looking for motivated, detail-oriented people who care about doing good work in service of organizations trying to do good in the world.
The role
Everything we do for our clients, we also have to do for ourselves — and to date that work has been spread across the founder, the finance team, and external accountants. This role brings it together under one owner.
As Finance & Operations Manager, you’ll run Impact Ops’ own finances, company secretarial obligations, payroll, invoicing, contracting, and HR administration. You’ll report to Joshua Axford (Founder & CEO) and work closely with Eric (Head of Finance), who leads our client-facing finance function.
It’s a broad role with real trust attached. You’ll have visibility into every commercially sensitive part of the business, and you’ll be the person we rely on to keep it running properly.
Finance
- Owning Impact Ops’ bookkeeping, month-end close, and management accounts
- Preparing annual accounts
- Cash flow forecasting and budget tracking
- Accounts receivable and accounts payable: raising client invoices, chasing payment, processing supplier invoices and payment runs
- VAT returns and corporation tax submissions
Company secretarial & compliance
- Confirmation statements, annual returns, and Companies House filings
- Maintaining statutory registers and corporate records
- Insurance renewals across the group, including professional indemnity, private medical and employers’ liability
Payroll
- Running end-to-end monthly payroll for our UK team, including RTI submissions, PAYE/NI, and pension auto-enrolment
- Coordinating payments for team members engaged internationally across several jurisdictions
- Year-end tasks including P60s and P11Ds
Contracts & client administration
- Drafting, issuing, and tracking client Service Level Agreements
- Managing employment contracts and contractor agreements for the team
- Maintaining a reliable view of contractual obligations, renewal dates, and scope changes
HR administration
- Onboarding and offboarding administration
- Maintaining people records and keeping our HR systems accurate
- Leave tracking, benefits administration, and equipment provisioning
About you
You’ll need to have:
- A recognised accounting qualification (ACA, ACCA, CIMA, or equivalent) — or qualified by experience with a track record that speaks for itself
- Experience running or providing accounting support for the finance function of a small business, or a comparable breadth of ownership within a larger one
- UK payroll experience, or the confidence to take it on with support
- Genuine comfort with administrative work: this role is hands on and we’d rather be honest about that than have you discover it in month two
- Strong judgement about confidentiality and discretion — you’ll see everything
- The ability to work independently in a remote environment and set your own priorities
- A genuine desire to have a positive impact with your career
It would be a bonus if you also have:
- Practice background: experience in an accountancy practice, particularly with company secretarial work
- Contract administration experience: comfort reading and drafting commercial agreements
- Familiarity with our tool stack: Xero, Ramp, Deel, Apron, or similar
- A process improvement mindset: you spot inefficiencies and take initiative to address them
- Commercial exposure: experience with pricing, proposals, or commercial analysis — not required for the role as scoped, but useful as it develops
Compensation & logistics
- Salary: £50,000–£60,000 GBP, depending on experience. There may be flexibility for exceptional candidates.
- Location: Remote, but we have a strong preference for candidates based in the UK and specifically the South West. This role involves periodic in-person co-working with the CEO, and the trust-level nature of the work benefits from face-to-face time.
- Hours: Full-time, or part-time (at least 3 days a week or equivalent) depending on candidate preference
- Start date: 1 December 2026 preferred, but we’re flexible for the right person — a Q1 2027 start is fine if you have a longer notice period
- Application deadline: 11 October 2026
Growth & Progression
We’re deliberately hiring above the immediate need. The brief described here is where the role starts, not where we expect it to stay: as Impact Ops scales, we anticipate significant operational leadership responsibility sitting with whoever takes this on, and we’d rather find that person now than replace them later.
We’re looking for someone who wants to grow with the business.
Our benefits include:
- Prioritised health & wellbeing: Private medical, vision, and dental insurance; up to 2 weeks’ paid sick leave; a generous mental health allowance
- Flexible working: Set your own schedule (with some overlap with colleagues as needed); remote workspace covered if needed
- Generous vacation: 25 days’ holiday per year plus public holidays — we encourage you to use the full allowance
- Professional development: A generous annual allowance for CPD, plus on-the-job growth and clear progression pathways
- Retirement: Pension with 10% employer contribution
- Parental leave: Up to 14 weeks fully paid, up to 52 weeks total; financial support for childcare where needed
- Equipment: Full remote setup covered (laptop, monitors, chair, etc.)
- Team retreats: Two in-person staff retreats per year
How to apply
To apply, please submit your CV and a short cover letter explaining your interest in the role and relevant experience.
We’re committed to building a diverse and inclusive team and warmly encourage applications from candidates of all backgrounds.
Diversity and inclusion
We’re aware that factors like gender, race, and socioeconomic background can affect people’s willingness to apply for roles for which they meet some but not all the suggested attributes. We’d especially like to encourage people from underrepresented backgrounds to express interest.
There’s no such thing as a “perfect” candidate. If you’re on the fence about applying because you’re unsure whether you’re qualified, we’d encourage you to apply.
If you require any adjustments to the application process, such as accessibility accommodations, additional preparation time, or other, please let us know. We’re happy to support your needs and adjust the application process.
EASST is an international NGO promoting road safety and sustainable mobility across Eastern Europe and Central Asia.
We believe local voices are essential to saving lives and bringing lasting change so we form long term partnerships with local civil society organisations, uniting their on-the-ground knowledge with national and international expertise to deliver evidence-based solutions that are grounded in the local reality.
Across our region, fatality rates are more than twice the European average and can cost up to 4% GDP, yet road safety still doesn't get the priority or investment it needs.
Today, rapidly escalating vehicle numbers are straining urban infrastructure, challenging existing road safety frameworks, and contributing to poor air quality and higher carbon emissions.
Our projects are focused on long-term change, connecting the dots between road safety and sustainable mobility and supporting communities in the transition toward safer, more inclusive transport networks that reduce casualties, strengthen climate resilience, and support sustainable economic growth.
EASST also operates EASST Expertise Ltd, an international road safety consultancy and wholly owned trading subsidiary. EASST Expertise draws on a wide network of specialists to support, advise and manage road safety projects across the world, with all surplus revenues returned to support EASST's charitable work.
Why join EASST?
EASST is a small organisation, and this is a varied role with significant responsibility. You will have the opportunity to work across the full project cycle, from developing new ideas and proposals through to delivery, evaluation and learning. You will work directly with our partners across the region, international experts and major funders, and have real scope to influence how our programmes develop.
Working in a small team means being prepared to get involved across different areas of our work and to take responsibility when needed. In return, the role offers considerable autonomy and variety, and the opportunity to see the direct impact of your work.
Role overview
As Programmes Manager, you will play a central role in EASST’s small team, managing a varied portfolio of road safety and sustainable mobility projects across Eastern Europe and Central Asia. Reporting to the Director General, you will take responsibility for projects across their full lifecycle – from project development and planning through to delivery, monitoring, reporting and evaluation.
Working closely with our network of local civil society partners, you will ensure projects are delivered on time, on budget and to a high technical standard. You will build strong, trusted relationships with our local civil society partners, support their organisational and technical development, and combine their on-the-ground knowledge with international technical expertise to influence policy and practice.
This is a hands-on role in a small organisation. Alongside managing programmes, you will contribute to new business development, organisational strategy and wider EASST activities as needed.
Key responsibilities
- Manage a portfolio of road safety and sustainable mobility projects across EASST's partner countries, ensuring high-quality delivery against agreed objectives, timelines and budgets.
- Oversee project planning, work plans and budgets, monitoring progress and flagging risks or delays early, with proposed solutions.
- Ensure projects are technically sound, evidence-based and aligned with international road safety good practice.
- Support the development of new project proposals and concept notes, including budgeting, log frames/theories of change, and donor-specific requirements.
- Build and maintain strong, trusted relationships with partner organisations, supporting them to strengthen organisational and technical capacity, including through monitoring visits and technical support missions.
- Develop and maintain project monitoring frameworks, tracking outputs, outcomes and impact, and capturing lessons learned to inform future programme design.
- Prepare high-quality narrative and financial reports for donors, ensuring accuracy and compliance with requirements and deadlines.
- Manage project budgets and financial compliance, working with the Director of Operations and Finance to monitor spend and forecast against donor rules.
- Identify and manage programmatic, financial, reputational and safeguarding risks, ensuring compliance with EASST's policies throughout.
- Collaborate with colleagues across EASST and represent EASST with donors, partners and other stakeholders, contributing to organisational strategy, business development, and communications outputs as needed.
Person specification
Essential
- Proven experience managing international development or NGO programmes.
- Experience managing project budgets and donor reporting, with a good understanding of donor compliance requirements (e.g. development banks, trusts, foundations or bilateral donors).
- Experience with monitoring and evaluation frameworks and tools.
- Experience working with and supporting local civil society or partner organisations.
- Strong project management skills, including planning, monitoring and risk management.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with experience producing high-quality reports and proposals.
- Ability to manage multiple projects and priorities simultaneously, working independently and as part of a small team and taking responsibility when needed.
- Cultural sensitivity and experience working across diverse international contexts.
- Willingness and ability to travel internationally.
Highly desirable
- Experience of road safety programmes and a strong understanding of road safety principles, data and evidence-based interventions.
- Experience of sustainable mobility programmes, including areas such as active travel, inclusive mobility, public transport or low-carbon transport.
- Experience working in Eastern Europe and Central Asia, or a comparable region.
- Experience of new business development or proposal writing for institutional donors.
Desirable
- Russian and/or another regional language.
- Degree or professional qualification in a relevant field (e.g. transport, development, public health).
Terms and Conditions
- Location: Based in the United Kingdom, with the right to work in the UK. The team currently works remotely with no office base.
- Travel: Travel may be required within the UK to Team meetings as well as within the region served by EASST and to conferences and other events.
- Hours: This is a full-time post. Some flexibility will be required to accommodate international travel and occasional meetings with partners and funders across different time zones.
- Salary: The salary offered for this post is £40–50K (depending on experience) plus 10% pension contribution and 30 days holiday per year.
We recognise that excellent candidates may not meet every aspect of the person specification. If you have strong international programme management experience and believe your skills and experience could transfer well to EASST's road safety and sustainable mobility work, we would encourage you to apply.

At The National Lottery Community Fund, we are driven by our strategy, ‘It starts with community’ and its four community-led missions, as well as our equity-based approach to tackling poverty, discrimination and disadvantage.
We have an opportunity for a Solicitor to join a large team of thirteen, with no line management responsibilities. We are a fast paced in-house legal team which works on a very broad range of matters.
Role Expectations
The successful candidate will be required to provide legal advice across areas of law including but not limited to grant making, contracts, procurement, charity, litigation, insolvency, subsidy control, debt recovery and public law.
In addition to providing substantive advice, the role requires a solicitor to be able to research and upskill on new areas of law very swiftly. It is also expected that the solicitor will use their legal knowledge to help improve the Fund’s internal processes and precedents, as well as ensuring that the Fund complies with statutory and regulatory frameworks at all times.
The bulk of the solicitor’s workload will consist of autonomous matters and legal queries. These will need to be answered in a timely manner. Support and supervision is always available and the legal team works on a very collaborative basis. The solicitor will also work with colleagues on larger scale projects when the opportunity arises.
Experience working in a busy in-house or private practice environment would be ideal, as would experience dealing with a range of clients, and experience with public law or public bodies. Knowledge of debt recovery/litigation and subsidy control law would be beneficial, as would experience gained in the UK.
