The Organisation:
The Hardman Trust is the only charity in England, Wales and Scotland focusing on the unique needs of people on long term sentences.
People facing decades of prison time often completely lose connection with their family and friends on the outside. Depending on the prison, there may be limited access to rehabilitative programmes and educational courses until later in the sentence. It can be hard to maintain hope, and direction, or create meaningful plans for the future.
People leaving prison after 10 years will have different needs to those leaving after 10 months. The world has changed – there are different habits and new social norms. Prices have gone up, technology has evolved, neighbourhoods look different, and the workplace has changed. It takes time to adjust.
To find out more about The Hardman Trust, visit our website.
The Role:
The Hardman Trust is at an exciting point in its development as it celebrates the arrival of its new team, the realisation of its first ever organisational strategy and looks forward to the next phase of its journey.
Our successful multi-year applications to the Lottery (Reaching Communities), City Bridge Trust and Bromley Trust means we will continue to be part-funded by them until 2027. Deeply rooted in the criminal justice sector, we plan to develop further our programme of support for those on long sentences both within and, we hope, beyond prison too; we aim to extend the reach and deepen the impact of our support and grants; and attract new partnerships with funders and like-minded third sector organisations. Last year we completed a merger with another charity which has expanded our reach and capacity.
Person Specification:
You will bring the following skills and experience to the role:
- Demonstrable senior leadership and management experience
- Proven experience of strategic planning, financial and human resources management
- Experience of managing organisational budgets and maximising resources
- Understanding of funding applications as well as knowledge and experience of generating funds from a variety of sources
- Experience of troubleshooting, decision making and resolving problems creatively
- Understanding the prison environment and its challenges.
- Understanding and practical knowledge of the funding landscape in the UK
- Demonstrable business experience and financial acumen
- Excellent interpersonal, relationship building and networking skills
