About the team

The Philanthropy Team raises income for Impetus and for Impetus partner charities. The team consists of 15 staff. Impetus has an annual income of c.£11 million which we are looking to grow significantly within the next few years. The team is led by two Directors of Philanthropy and Partnerships. 

The Philanthropy Team works with major donors, corporates and grant making trusts, as well as collaboratively with colleagues across the organisation to ensure we make a compelling case to generate new financial commitments and wider support for our work. The team also deliver a high-quality engagement programme of volunteering and pro bono for Impetus’s corporate supporters.   

Impetus is driven by a shared belief in tackling the barriers that hold back young people from disadvantaged backgrounds in education and employment. Alongside investing extensive financial and non-financial support in our charity partners through our Investment Team we also seek to influence decision makers to design and implement evidence led policy and direct new resources to get young people the support they need through our Public Affairs team. We are resolutely focused on outcomes, driven by quality evidence.

You would be joining a team that is passionate, ambitious, determined and warm. We care deeply for our colleagues, our charity partners and the young people we serve. 

About this role

The Head of Engagement is a strategically significant and high-impact role within the Philanthropy team, responsible for leading and developing Impetus’ engagement programme across both volunteering and pro bono support.

At Impetus, volunteering refers to opportunities for employees of our donor firms to engage directly with the young people supported by our portfolio partners, helping to inspire, motivate and broaden horizons through meaningful interactions.

Pro bono support is a core element of our capacity-building approach and a key way in which we strengthen the organisations we back. It involves skilled volunteers and partners contributing professional expertise to address strategic challenges and opportunities within our charity portfolio, helping to build capability, resilience and long-term impact.

The Head of Engagement will shape the strategic direction and lead the delivery of a high-quality programme of volunteering and skilled pro bono support, creating meaningful outcomes for portfolio partners while delivering engaging and rewarding experiences for supporters. The postholder will ensure that engagement opportunities align with Impetus’ investment priorities and organisational objectives, respond to donor interests, and maximise impact for the young people and charities we serve.

The role combines strategic leadership, relationship management, programme innovation and operational oversight. Working closely with colleagues across Philanthropy and Investment, and engaging regularly with Public Affairs and senior leaders, the Head of Engagement will build, steward and deepen relationships with a wide network of corporate partners, major donors, and highly skilled volunteers.

The postholder will also lead and develop the Engagement team, comprising the Engagement Manager and Engagement Officer, fostering a collaborative, inclusive and high-performing culture that enables exceptional delivery, continuous improvement and professional growth.

As a key member of the Philanthropy leadership team, the Head of Engagement will play a central role in expanding and strengthening Impetus' supporter network, developing innovative opportunities for supporters to contribute their time and expertise, and ensuring our volunteering and pro bono programmes continue to evolve in response to the changing needs of young people, charities and partners.

About Impetus

At Impetus, our focus is on helping young people achieve positive education and employment outcomes to increase their chance of leading fulfilling and successful lives, irrespective of their background.

We tackle the three most difficult challenges that affect a young person’s ability to succeed in life in Britain today:

• Lost learning through absence, suspensions, exclusions from school
• Stagnation in education attainment outcomes, which means many are missing out on key qualifications like GCSE English and maths
• The large numbers of young people out of education, training and employment

We use our deep expertise and high calibre networks to give the best non-profits working in these sectors the essential ingredients to have a real and lasting impact on the young people they serve.

Through a powerful combination of long-term funding, direct capacity building support from our experienced team and our pro bono partners, alongside research and policy influencing to drive lasting systems change, we work towards a society where all young people can thrive in school, pass their exams and unlock the doors to sustained employment, for a fulfilling life.

We are resolutely focused on outcomes and impact, driven by quality evidence.

You would be joining a team that is passionate, rigorous, determined, creative and warm. We care deeply for our colleagues, our portfolio partners and the young people we serve.

Job Description

At Hft, our vision is to create a future where learning disabled people can live the best life possible. We do this by coming together to campaign for positive change, provide personalised support and create solutions that enable people to live independently.

We’re looking for an experienced Tender and Contracts Manager to join our Business Development team and play a key role in helping Hft win new business, retain existing contracts and grow our income.

This is a key role for an exceptionally strong bid writer with proven experience within the social care sector. You’ll need to be able to develop compelling, persuasive and high-quality tender responses that demonstrate a clear understanding of commissioners’ requirements and position Hft strongly against the competition.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys bringing together commercial thinking, exceptional writing, project management and stakeholder engagement. You’ll take ownership of the end-to-end tender process, from identifying opportunities and making go/no-go recommendations through to submission and post-tender review. You’ll also manage the income contract lifecycle, ensuring our contracts are well governed, compliant and effectively managed from award through to renewal.

What you'll be doing

You’ll be the central point of contact for tendering and contract management activity across Hft, working with colleagues across finance, operations, legal, governance, marketing and communications, as well as external partners.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Managing the full tender lifecycle, from opportunity identification and go/no-go decisions through to contract award.
• Monitoring procurement portals and relevant platforms to identify new business opportunities.
• Coordinating internal and external contributors to ensure high-quality, timely submissions.
• Leading the writing, editing and quality assurance of compelling, high-scoring tender responses that directly address evaluation criteria and maximise our chances of success.
• Using exceptional bid writing skills to develop persuasive responses that clearly articulate Hft’s value proposition, demonstrate our social care expertise and differentiate us from competitors.
• Translating complex operational, technical and commercial information into clear and persuasive narratives.
• Developing strong value propositions, win themes, case studies and supporting evidence.
• Maintaining a central bid content library and ensuring our tender materials remain accurate, current and effective.
• Developing supporting tender documentation, including methodologies, pricing narratives, mobilisation plans and social value commitments.
• Managing the full income contract lifecycle, including awards, variations, amendments, renewals and change control.
• Maintaining an accurate contract register and monitoring key dates, obligations, risks and milestones.
• Working closely with finance and governance colleagues to ensure appropriate oversight, approval and risk management.
• Providing clear reporting and insight to senior leaders on the tender pipeline, contract portfolio, risks and commercial commitments.
• Leading post-tender debriefs and using feedback and lessons learned to continually improve our approach.
• Helping to build Hft’s organisational capability through training, guidance and support for colleagues involved in bid and tender activity.

What we're looking for

This role is not simply a contract management position. We are looking for an exceptional bid writer who understands social care and can turn complex information into compelling, high-scoring tender submissions.

Essential experience

You must have:

• Significant experience working within the social care sector, with a strong understanding of the sector, commissioning environment and the needs of social care providers.
• Exceptional bid/tender writing skills, with a proven ability to write persuasive, compelling and high-quality responses that meet evaluation criteria and demonstrate clear value.
• At least 3 years' experience in a bid, tender or proposal management role.
• A proven track record of managing end-to-end tender processes and producing successful submissions.
• Experience of managing contract variations, renewals and change control.
• Experience managing multiple bids and live contracts against demanding deadlines.
• Outstanding written, editing and proofreading skills, with an exceptional eye for detail.
• The ability to understand complex procurement, contractual and service information and translate it into clear, persuasive and engaging written responses.
• Strong stakeholder management skills and the confidence to influence and coordinate colleagues at all levels.
• Sound commercial judgement and the ability to identify and escalate contractual and financial risks.
• Strong organisational and project management skills, with the ability to remain calm while managing competing priorities.
• An understanding of governance, delegated authority, risk and audit requirements.
• Knowledge of UK public procurement legislation, including the Procurement Act 2023.

The person we're looking for

We're looking for someone who is an outstanding communicator and writer, with the ability to take information from multiple stakeholders and turn it into a coherent, persuasive bid that tells a compelling story.

You’ll be confident challenging and influencing contributors, asking the right questions to draw out the strongest content and ensuring every response is targeted towards what the commissioner is looking for.

Most importantly, you'll understand social care. You’ll be able to draw on your sector knowledge and experience to demonstrate how Hft can deliver high-quality services, achieve positive outcomes for people and provide commissioners with confidence in our ability to deliver.
