Manager jobs in dublin 2, county dublin
The need for what we do has never been greater – churches, charities and ministries are losing valuable time to increasingly complex legal and financial compliance. The opportunities for mission and ministry have never been greater, but those called to this important work are under financed, under resourced and in some cases burning out. For all Christians, called to live and give generously, the pressures of modern life and confusion over how to give well, is restricting an abundant outpouring of generosity.
We’re investing in technology to grow our payroll services, and part of your role will be to help us transition onto the new payroll software smoothly and effectively. At the same time, we are developing other aspects of our consultancy offering and around 40% of your role will be to provide support and cover for these services to the treasurers and trustees of our clients.
As Administrator, your role will support the work of our highly acclaimed teams serving our church and charity partners, specifically providing our payroll and consultancy services. Our professional services at Stewardship are in great demand and we are looking to build on the support we provide to UK churches and Christian charities. You will work alongside our award-winning Payroll Bureau team and our Consultancy Helpline with responsibility for building relationships with and serving a distinct group of churches and Christian charities.
This is a 12 month fixed term contract.
As a result of our Christian ethos, this post is covered by an Occupational Requirement (OR) under Part 1 of Schedule 9 to the Equality Act 2010. The successful applicant will be expected to be a practising Christian and to clearly demonstrate a personal commitment to the mission, principles, values and practices contained in our Ethos Statement, by:
· Active membership of local church congregation.
An understanding of the faith aspects of the work of Christian charities, including the preparedness to pray with colleagues, where appropriate.

Future Talent supports gifted young musicians from low-income backgrounds across the UK. Join them as their next CEO and lead a mission where powerful storytelling and purposeful fundraising drive lasting impact and unlock potential every day.
Applications close: 9 a.m. Monday 8th September 2025

About Future Talent
Founded in 2004 by the Duchess of Kent and Nicholas Robinson OBE, Future Talent exists to break down barriers, create opportunities, and harness the transformative power of music to change the lives of young musicians across the UK.
With over 4.2 million children living in poverty in the UK, too many gifted young musicians are held back by a lack of access and support. We envision a future where all musically talented children, regardless of background, are empowered to thrive.
Our work is made possible through the generosity of major donors, trusts & foundations, corporate partners and sponsors, and individual supporters, whose contributions and support make our programmes possible, creating vital opportunities for young musicians.
About the role
As CEO, you will provide strategic and operational leadership to ensure we can support more young musicians across the UK.
This is a hands-on, externally facing leadership role that combines fundraising, advocacy and organisational strategy. You’ll work closely with our committed Board of Trustees, expert Advisory Group and small, passionate staff team to:
- Lead high-value fundraising activity, strengthening and diversifying our income from major donors, trusts and foundations, and corporate partners
- Build partnerships across the music, education, funding and philanthropic sectors
- Increase the charity’s visibility and voice on a national level
- Lead a high-performing, inclusive team culture
- Ensure the charity’s long-term financial sustainability and operational resilience
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who is ambitious and excited about the impact Future Talent can have, and who brings the strategic fundraising expertise, day-to-day energy and stakeholder management skills to make that ambition a reality.
Who we are looking for
We’re looking for a confident, collaborative and energetic leader with experience working in a small charity environment and a passion for supporting young people and driving social change.
You don’t need to have been a CEO before; this could be your first time stepping into the role. What matters is that you bring the right leadership experience, values and ambition to take Future Talent forward.
You will bring:
- Proven success in delivering significant fundraising results and income growth, particularly with major donors, trusts and foundations and/or corporate partners
- Strong relationship-building skills and experience representing an organisation externally, including to funders and philanthropic partners
- Strategic leadership experience, with the ability to lead organisational growth and change
- A people-centred leadership and management style that fosters inclusion, collaboration and high performance
- Financial and operational acumen
While your background could be in youth, arts, music, education, or another area of the charity sector, a personal interest or hobby in music would be a welcome bonus.
