What is The Multibank?

The Multibank is a clothes, bedding, baby, hygiene, toys and furniture bank all rolled into one.

Our idea is simple: businesses have surplus products that people need, while local charities and community organisations know the families who need them. The Multibank connects the two — getting essential products to people experiencing poverty, free at the point of delivery and with dignity at every step.

We were founded on the belief that businesses can help solve a social problem while addressing a business challenge. We take perfectly good products that businesses can no longer sell and put them to good use, helping alleviate some of the everyday challenges faced by families across the UK, while keeping products in use and contributing to a more sustainable economy.

While surplus is at the heart of our model, we also welcome product donations and use at-cost purchasing where needed to ensure we can provide the right products to meet demand.

We are a growing national charity, with an expanding network of Multibanks and an increasingly diverse group of business partners. As we grow, we're developing the supply partnerships, systems and processes needed to get more of the right products to more people.

What is the role and its impact?

We're looking for an experienced Supply & Partnerships Manager to take ownership of the day-to-day supply function at The Multibank.

You'll make sure products move efficiently from our supply partners through the Multibank network, while building strong relationships with suppliers and regional Multibanks and continually improving how we manage supply.

This is a hands-on role with significant responsibility. You'll manage the detail of stock offers, allocations and logistics, while also understanding the bigger picture and identifying opportunities to improve our systems, processes and supply base.

You'll work closely with the Director of Supply & Partnerships, taking ownership of operational supply and creating capacity for the Director to focus on strategic supply growth, senior partnerships and supporting the development of the wider Multibank network.

It's an opportunity to play a key role in helping The Multibank scale — ensuring we have the products, partnerships and systems needed to meet growing demand.

What you'll be working on

Supply operations

• You'll own the day-to-day movement of products from initial offer through to allocation and delivery.
• You'll act as the main operational contact for supply partners, providing a responsive and straightforward service.
• You'll coordinate product offers, allocations and deliveries across the Multibank network.
• You'll manage and triage the partnerships inbox, ensuring enquiries are responded to promptly.
• You'll work with Palletline and other logistics partners to coordinate the movement of products.
• You'll track stock movements and proactively identify and resolve issues.

Supply partnerships

• You'll build and maintain strong relationships with existing supply partners.
• You'll identify opportunities to increase the volume and range of support from existing partners.
• You'll prepare tailored partner updates and reports.
• You'll work with the Director of Supply & Partnerships on strategic partner relationships and new opportunities.

Supply development and insight

• You'll develop a strong understanding of product demand across the Multibank network.
• You'll identify gaps and opportunities across supply and demand.
• You'll support the development of new sources of surplus, donations and low-cost purchasing.
• You'll use data and insight to inform supply decisions and help us build a more diverse and resilient supply base.

Systems and improvement

• You'll own and improve the systems and processes used to manage supply.
• You'll identify operational bottlenecks and develop practical solutions.
• You'll improve visibility of supply, demand, allocations and stock movements.
• You'll lead or contribute to projects that enable the supply function to scale.

This job is for you if…

• You have experience in supply, operations, partnerships, account management or a similar role.
• You're comfortable managing multiple relationships, priorities and processes simultaneously.
• You're highly organised, with strong attention to detail.
• You have strong written and verbal communication skills.
• You're confident building trusted relationships with corporate partners and internal stakeholders.
• You're proactive, solutions-focused and comfortable taking ownership.
• You're able to work independently and make decisions with limited day-to-day direction.
• You're confident working with data and using insight to inform decisions.
• You're comfortable working in a fast-paced or growing organisation where priorities and processes can evolve.
• You care about The Multibank's mission and the difference our work makes.

Experience of logistics, surplus redistribution, donations or working within the charity/social impact sector would be advantageous, but you don't need to come from a traditional logistics background. We're interested in transferable experience and people who can demonstrate strong organisation, relationship management, problem-solving and attention to detail.

A growing charity

The Multibank is a relatively young charity that has grown quickly, with an entrepreneurial and ambitious culture. We are now at an exciting stage of development, building our team and putting the structures, policies and processes in place to support our next phase of growth. Many of these are still in their infancy, which means there is plenty of opportunity to shape how we work. To be successful in this role, you'll need to be comfortable with some ambiguity, enjoy finding practical solutions and be excited by the opportunity to help build the systems and processes of a growing charity.

Why join The Multibank?

This is an exciting time to join The Multibank. We're growing our national network and developing the supply model needed to support that growth.

You'll have the opportunity to shape how we manage supply at scale, strengthen relationships with businesses and help build access to the right products for the communities we support.

You'll also have significant autonomy and the opportunity to make a tangible difference in a small, ambitious and rapidly growing charity.

How to apply

Alongside your CV, please provide a short covering statement addressing the following:

• What attracts you to The Multibank and this opportunity?
• Organisation and coordination: Tell us about a time when you have had to manage multiple moving parts or competing priorities to get something delivered.
• Relationships: Tell us about your experience building and managing relationships with customers, suppliers, partners or other stakeholders.

We expect significant interest in this role and may close the advert early if we receive a strong field of candidates.

Additional details

We believe in flexibility and trust. We’re happy to work with the successful candidate to find a working pattern that works for both them and the organisation. This could include flexibility around when hours are worked, alongside the option to consider a slightly reduced-hours arrangement for the right candidate.

We're a small and growing team, so there will be times when collaboration and availability are important, but we focus on outcomes rather than being prescriptive about when or where work is done.

We also recognise that people don't always meet every requirement listed in a job description. If you're excited about the role and can demonstrate strong organisational, relationship-building and problem-solving skills, we'd encourage you to apply even if your experience doesn't exactly match everything we've described. The role involves occasional UK travel, including to meet supply partners, Multibanks and colleagues.

We are recruiting a Programme Manager to lead day-to-day delivery of the Water Company Partnership: a developing arrangement between TRT, The Rivers Trust, Thames Water and ZSL that works alongside and helps coordinate support for the 27 Catchment Partnerships of the Thames Basin. You will oversee delivery across all five of the Partnership's workstreams and be accountable to the Partnership Board for progress, combining day-to-day programme management with support to the Board's strategic oversight.

In practical terms, this role exists to help integrate Catchment Partnership hosts and partnership members with Thames Water's delivery programme, and to upskill those partnerships so they are equipped to plan, fund and deliver more on the ground themselves, building the same kind of productive relationships with other funders and partners too, not just Thames Water. It is a genuine opportunity to shape how a major water company and its environmental partners work together, and to help turn that partnership into real, measurable improvements for rivers and the wider environment across the Thames Basin.

Your responsibilities will span five workstreams:

● Governance: catchment partnership maturity and tiering, network structure and governance models

● Monitoring and Evaluation: river health scorecards, monitoring standards and evidence for investment decisions and Thames Water's PR29 submission

● Capability and Capacity, including CaPS: TRT's own Catchment Partnerships Support Programme, learning and development, and running the Thames Catchment Forum

● Catchment and Nature-based Solutions: supporting delivery of wetland, river restoration and storm overflow projects

● Blended Finance: developing environmental market mechanisms and diversified funding for Catchment Partnerships

You will also service the Partnership Board, coordinate quarterly reviews with individual catchment hosts, and act as TRT's key liaison with Thames Water, The Rivers Trust, ZSL and Catchment Partnerships across the region.

We're looking for someone with experience delivering environmental, catchment or nature-recovery programmes, strong partnership working and facilitation skills, and the ability to coordinate complex, multi-organisation programmes through influence rather than line management. Knowledge of the water sector, WINEP or AMP planning, nature-based solutions or blended finance would be an advantage, as would a project or programme management qualification.

Please note that we are interested in receiving and considering applications from candidates who may not tick every box. You may be just who we are looking for.

Formerly the Habitat Biodiversity Audit, a key remit of NCAP has been to survey and gather habitat data across Warwickshire, Coventry and Solihull, combining ecological field surveys with pioneering satellite imagery and remote sensing analysis. A second key aspect of NCAP’s work is managing the Local Wildlife Sites programme for the region.

Data acquired and produced by the team supports Local Wildlife Site designations, Local Nature Recovery Strategy development and monitoring, and creates baseline habitat reports and statistics.  This localised yet UK-leading dataset provides robust evidence for decision-making and monitoring, plus a unique record of land-use change over the past two decades. Combined with Biological Records Centre species data, it offers an unrivalled picture of the local state of nature.

NCAP is funded by local authorities, managed by Warwickshire Wildlife Trust and hosted by Warwickshire County Council.

Application deadline: Sunday 30th August 2026, 23:59.
