Job Information
This exciting role in our award-winning External Affairs department will work across policy and public affairs work in England. You will fight for the hospice sector and people who need their support, helping us to create a country where no one misses out on the care they need at the end of their lives.
This is a significant time for hospice and end of life care.
Hospices across the UK are in the worst financial situation they have faced for 20 years. The funding crisis means hospices are cutting services and making redundancies.
Our campaigning efforts have recently led to £125m in short term funding for the hospice sector and a commitment to a Modern Service Framework for palliative care and end of life care. As well as a spotlight on hospices in the 10 year health plan and unprecedented parliamentary scrutiny of the way hospices are funded.
The momentum around palliative care and hospices mean there is no shortage of opportunities to influence the policy and political agenda.
We have strong influence in Parliament and have built significant interest in hospice care among policymakers. We are an important voice in the conversation around Assisted Dying, which will have a significant impact on palliative and end of life care.
With this momentum and opportunity, we are looking for a talented and committed Policy and Public Affairs Manager to help us shape the future of palliative and end of life care.
We are looking for a proactive and driven policy and public affairs professional. You will be curious about how best to improve people’s experiences of death, dying and bereavement and strengthen the contribution of the hospice sector to this.
You will have excellent influencing and communication skills and sharp instinctsthat enable you to quickly understand and analyse the impact of external developments. As well as a collaborative mindset and commitment to building coalitions to maximise our impact.
You will provide leadership but must also be willing to pitch in at all levels to get things done. Excellent project management skills will mean you can identify where our resource is best spent and how to delegate tasks.
This is your chance to play a key role in creating a country where no one misses out on the care they need at the end of their lives.

Help a Black-led national youth music charity run brilliantly behind the scenes. We’re hiring an experienced operations manager to own the systems, administration and reporting that enable our work with young people to thrive.
UD Music Foundation is a Black-led National Youth Music Organisation based in Stratford, Newham, with a 25-year track record rooted in Black music culture. Founded by musicians in 2000, UD educates, empowers and creates life opportunities for young people, addressing racial and socio-economic inequality through talent development, skills building and pathways into the music industry.
This is a senior, hands-on operational role in a small, mission-driven organisation. You will take ownership of our core operational, administrative and reporting systems—bringing structure, consistency and follow-through across calendars, documentation, records, deadlines and organisational processes. Working closely with the Chief Executive Officer, you will help ensure UD runs smoothly, reliably and responsibly.
You’ll play a key role in:
-
maintaining strong operational and administrative systems and accurate records
-
coordinating funder reporting, monitoring returns and evidence collation across grants
-
supporting financial administration (invoices, expenses, contractor payments) and audit readiness
-
coordinating governance administration with the CEO (board papers, registers, policy updates)
-
supporting project delivery administration including events, workshops and performances
-
overseeing operational compliance administration (data protection, safeguarding, health and safety)
This role is for someone who enjoys being the organisational “glue”—methodical, calm, and highly organised—with strong judgement, attention to detail and confidence managing competing deadlines. It is not a programme-leading or strategy role.
UD is committed to equity, diversity and inclusion and warmly welcomes applications from candidates underrepresented in the arts and cultural sector. We are happy to discuss access needs or reasonable adjustments at any stage of the process.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.

Process – a development programme for women, non-binary and trans+ music makers. Structured across three strands for different abilities (Create, Define, Release), Process combines workshops, mentoring and masterclasses to build skills, confidence and community for underrepresented producers.

Overview
High energy costs are a nightmare for millions of UK households, while huge profits are made at our expense. Poor housing and heating systems are a key part of the problem, along with dependence on polluting, climate-changing fossil fuels. FPA is a campaigning organisation that sets out to attack the root causes of fuel poverty along with the specific injustices facing people and communities. We want to see the UK’s energy system decarbonised as rapidly as possible, with a just transition for communities and workers that includes affordability.
Working closely with pensioners groups, trades unions, disabled campaigners, tenants’ organisations and others on the frontline of fuel poverty, we’re using protest and direct action to fight for real, sustainable solutions to the cold homes crisis. We are looking for a committed operations person and fundraiser who shares our passion and values, to oversee systems and processes which support our strategy and core team to do their best work.
About the role
Fuel Poverty Action (FPA) was started in 2011 by climate activists who wanted to ensure that the green energy transition doesn’t happen at the expense of those with less social and economic power. Rather, they saw the break with fossil fuels as an opportunity to end the scourge of fuel poverty in the UK - a chance to rethink priorities and design inequality out of the energy system.
We are seeking a new, well-organised Operations Lead to slot into this structure, to take care of administrative and operational functions and support the Directors with fundraising: bids, budgets and reports, managing relationships with funders and cultivating a donor pipeline.
This role would suit someone familiar with the operational and HR elements of running a company or organisation, somebody with management experience who is caring and collaborative and comfortable juggling a varied workload.
Critically, we are seeking someone who shares our political vision, as reflected in the Energy For All manifesto (link in attachment).
Key responsibilities
- Administration: Managing the email inbox; maintaining up to date contacts and mailing lists; developing and refining systems, processes and platforms to support internal and campaign activities.
- Information management: Ensuring high standards of record keeping, data protection and secure information storage across the organisation, enabling staff and members to share and access resources and know-how.
- Fundraising: Creating and implementing a three-year fundraising plan; managing existing donor relationships and completing reports; working with directors/fundraising volunteers on grant bids and budgets.
- Line management: Providing light touch management for at least one colleague.
- HR functions: Overseeing recruitment and onboarding of new staff and freelancers, overseeing HR policies and contracts, identifying training needs and opportunities.
- Strategic thinking: Inputting into FPA’s long and short term strategic plans, with an eye to the setting and monitoring of appropriate targets.
- Writing and editing: Including overseeing the production of our Annual Report.
- Events: Organising online and in-person events and meetings, including annual strategy days and a 2026 conference.
