You will help co-ordinate and develop a range of income streams and funding projects, including individual giving, community fundraising, events, corporate partnerships, and trusts and foundations. The role also involves supporting new fundraising opportunities, monitoring impact and fundraising data, stewarding donors through engagement and communications, and assisting with funding applications and reporting.
Alongside this, you will play a key role in the day-to-day financial administration of the charity. This includes tracking income across multiple platforms, monitoring expenditure, and producing reports to support forecasting and strategic planning.
You will also support the administration and review of core organisational contracts, such as utilities, insurance, IT, and HR, helping to ensure value for money and operational efficiency.
Working collaboratively with colleagues and partners, you will help gather and present impact data across our services, tailoring this for both internal use and external stakeholders.
This is a varied and rewarding role, suited to a highly organised administrator with strong Microsoft Office skills (particularly Excel), excellent written and numerical ability, and a keen eye for detail. You should be comfortable working with data and finances, whilst also engaging confidently with a wide range of people—including donors, partners, volunteers, and guests. An understanding of, and empathy with, the homelessness sector is essential.
Our Mission is to meet the basic human needs of homeless and isolated people through a range of high quality and easily accessible services.
