Reporting to the Family Support Manager and working in partnership with health, education, and social care professionals, you will take responsibility for providing needs-led emotional, social, and practical support to families where a child/young person has a life threatening or terminal illness.

Having worked in a stressful and emotional environment you will have a genuine interest in building supportive relationships and helping people; and having provided bereavement support to families, you understand processes of grief, loss, and change - and how best to help others deal with its impact.

Location:

This role covers Thames Valley and surrounding areas. The role does require travel, however you have the freedom to plan your own diary around the demands of both the families you are working with, your team, and also any personal appointments you may need to attend.

What we’re looking for:

· An experienced child health, education or social care professional - applications will be particularly welcome from those who have worked in a community environment and those with a recognised qualification in education, health or social care.

· A warm, inclusive approach to achieving goals quickly and correctly.

· Practiced in child protection, information sharing and the rules around data protection - you lead by example, drawing on your own professional experience and working within established guidelines.

· Practical and people-oriented - you will thrive working at a fast pace whilst maintaining accuracy and be a confident user of IT (including MSOffice)

· A persuasive and open communicator, you will work collaboratively with your team and volunteers to ensure delivery of a high-quality service and support fundraising colleagues by writing case studies and family updates

· A practical knowledge of diversity issues affecting children, young people, and their families – aware that being responsive to others needs and concerns, is essential.

Executive Director, Development
The King’s Foundation

Location: London, Ayrshire or Gloucestershire
Salary: The salary for this role is no less than £80,000 pa with significant flexibility on this for an exceptional candidate to ensure that the Foundation is able to attract leading professionals to this critical position

First formed in 1990, The King’s Foundation is a global charity delivering for people, places and the planet.

Inspired by His Majesty’s philosophy of Harmony, we build and support thriving, sustainable communities where people, places and the planet can coexist.  We practise and teach the principles of nature that underpin food, horticulture, farming and wellbeing, showcasing this knowledge at our sustainable sites around the world.  We also bring these philosophies and practices to life at heritage sites across the UK, and train and educate people of all ages to develop practical skills, rooted in nature and tradition, that help them play an active role in their communities.

Philanthropy plays a key role in the delivery of our vision and, with the support of a strong donor base, we raise c. £15M pa alongside an equally robust commercial income stream.  We have enjoyed success in raising support for some significant capital projects in the last few years, and have been strengthening our case for a range of educational programmes and projects that will help us achieve our strategic objectives.  To ensure the long-term sustainability of our work, we are now seeking a new Executive Director, Development to lead our fundraising activities in this next stage of our strategy.

Reporting to the Chief Financial Officer, and working closing with the CEO, COO, Executive team and members of our Board and Development Advisory Board, the Executive Director, Development will shape and drive a roadmap for this next stage of our philanthropic activity.  Working as part of the Executive Team, you will exemplify the highest standard of professional integrity and represent the Foundation to senior stakeholders both internally and externally.  With the support of a dedicated team and expertise of your peers, you will devise, implement and oversee an ambitious philanthropy strategy, underpinned by the appropriate fundraising policies, procedures and records including due diligence; raise the capital required to meet the Foundation’s fundraising targets; maintain detailed and up to date projections; own donor/prospect relationships; and communicate effectively to these stakeholders.

To be successful in this role, you will therefore be an experienced and entrepreneurial fundraising leader, who is equally adept at building significant philanthropic relationships as you are in meeting the operational requirements of an organisation of our size and complexity.  You will bring a track record of personally cultivating significant gifts, as well as leveraging and supporting key stakeholders and volunteers to support these activities.  Your international fundraising experience will be an added bonus, particularly with donors in North America.  With your highly developed diplomacy, tact, and sophisticated interpersonal skills, you understand and know how to get the best of people in support of the organisations you’ve represented.  In return, you will have the strong support of an experience Executive Team, a committed Board and Development Advisory group, and an exceptional organisation and brand to support these endeavours.

If this sounds like the career defining opportunity you are looking for, we want to hear from you.  We are pleased to partner with Richmond Associates on this search and to learn more, please contact Sonja Dunphy, Managing Director, or Nicola Reames, Senior Consultant for a confidential conversation.  To find their contact details, download a full information pack on this exceptional opportunity, or to apply, please visit their website by following the "Apply" button.
