About the role

Whether you're looking for an interim opportunity or a permanent role, we’re interested in hearing from experienced professionals who can hit the ground running and make an immediate impact.

This is an inspiring role for someone who wants to contribute to our success by providing strategic leadership and direction to the fundraising and communications functions supporting the Dementia Adventure business plan and charitable mission and objectives.

Managing a team of five across fundraising, communications, special projects and data management, the successful applicant will lead the development of partnerships and campaigns to raise funds for Dementia Adventure’s unique work to support people with dementia and their carers to have a more active and fulfilled life by getting outdoors and experiencing the benefits of nature. 

You will provide strategic leadership and direction for income generation through various fundraising disciplines and joint fundraising partnerships, ensuring the charity's diversification of funding and financial sustainability. Funding sources include major grantmakers, trusts and foundations, corporate partnerships, challenge events, and an individual giving campaign.

Hand in hand with leading fundraising, you will oversee the Communications team, supporting, developing and monitoring the communications strategy, associated budget, resources, systems, processes and operations. This will involve overseeing and directing a communications plan promoting the work of Dementia Adventure to a broad range of audiences through various channels and campaigns, along with increasing online and social media presence.

About you
We are looking for someone to join the charity’s Senior Leadership Team who will bring experience from their past successes and provide inspirational strategic leadership and direction to the fundraising and communications functions in support of the Dementia Adventure business plan, charitable mission and objectives. The successful applicant will have a strong, successful track record of fundraising and/or other forms of income generation in the charity sector, including management, with proven experience in meeting financial and non-financial targets. You should be able to build and maintain relationships with key stakeholders, including trusts and grant givers, corporates, major donors and other individuals. In addition, you should have strong knowledge of marketing and communication principles and practice, digital marketing, and social media, and be confident in engaging audiences sensitively with real-life stories to demonstrate impact and create a compelling case for support.

Dementia Adventure is an evidence-led, multi-award national charity helping people living with dementia and their carers to enjoy the outdoors, connect with nature, and retain a sense of adventure. We look at what people can do, not what they can’t. Through supported holidays, learning, and tailored support, we promote well-being, inclusion, and resilience through fostering meaningful connections and renewed possibilities.

YMCA St Paul's Group aims to support and empower young people and communities throughout London and beyond by providing life-changing youth work, essential community services, inclusive health and wellbeing centres, and supported accommodation for those who are at risk of homelessness. As one of the largest YMCAs in Europe, we’re proud of our dual identity as a Charity and Registered Provider of Social Housing.

As part of a bold phase of planned growth under our three year strategic plan, the role of Group Director of New Business & Partnerships has been created. This is an opportunity for a forward-thinking leader to help shape the future of YMCA St Paul’s Group by developing impactful partnerships and unlocking new business opportunities that align with our mission.

Working closely with the CEO and the Executive Team, you will lead our business development efforts, build strategic partnerships, and position YMCA St Paul’s Group to grow our reach and relevance. While the initial focus will likely be in Housing and Support, we also see huge potential in Health & Wellbeing services and beyond.

We are looking for an enterprising and inclusive leader with a strong track record of business development within commissioned or regulated services. You will bring commercial acumen, a collaborative spirit, and a natural ability to build relationships with a wide range of stakeholders. While housing experience is valuable, we also welcome candidates with transferable knowledge and experience from other regulated sectors.

At YMCA St Paul’s Group, it’s our people who make the difference. We’re committed to creating an environment where colleagues feel a deep sense of belonging and are supported to grow and thrive. That’s why we were recently recognised as one of the UK’s Best Workplaces for Development by Great Places to Work – an achievement that reflects our culture of care, learning and continuous improvement.
