- Strengthen leadership and skills across the sector by investing in tools, training, networks and collaboration
- Support inclusion by backing leaders from underrepresented communities and helping organisations diversify how they are led
This fund is also part of how the charity will support the long-term strength of the voluntary and community sector. It gives them space to respond quickly, test new approaches and back the people shaping the future of social change.
The Role
The Opportunity Fund Partnership Development Manager plays a central role in supporting funding opportunities aligned with the objectives of the Opportunity Fund. This role combines relationship-building and programme development to ensure the Opportunity Fund achieves the maximum impact.
This role will be responsible for working closely with the CEO and the Strategy, Research and Engagement team to initially identify possible opportunities for funding, through to managing the relationship with organisations once funding is awarded. This will include remaining in tune with sector insights and development across philanthropy, civil society and public policy.
The Candidate
The successful candidate will be proactive and ambitious, with a real interest in innovation in philanthropy to delivery greater social change. You will have proven experience developing and managing partnerships, with experience of engaging a range of stakeholders including funders, community organisations, and sector experts.
