About Us
Help Musicians is a charity that loves music and for 100 years has been working hard to make a meaningful difference to the lives of musicians across the UK. We want to create a world where musicians thrive.
A musicians’ life can be precarious with ups and downs throughout a career. Opportunities must be hard-won, whilst challenges come along all too easily, with unsteady income and physical and mental health concerns common issues to navigate. In addition, training can take many years and, along with investing in instruments and other equipment, puts up financial barriers to creative progression. Help Musicians offers a broad range of help to support music creators in times of crisis and opportunity - ensuring musicians across the UK can achieve their creative potential and sustain a career in music.
Sadly, the impact of the pandemic means the charity is needed more than ever in 2021, its centenary year. Last year we were able to provide financial hardship support to over 19,000 music creators and increase access to our mental health services by 40%. In 2021, this ongoing need will continue at scale while the music sector recovers and rebuilds.

Transparency International UK: Project Manager - Vaccines Transparency
About us
Transparency International (TI) is the world’s leading independent anti-corruption organisation. We would globally towards ensuring a world where people’s lives, government, business and society are free from corruption. A world where, the health of our institutions is enhanced so they can better support the people they are intended for; a world where we can trust the integrity of those in authority and in business, and a world where there is no impunity for the corrupt at home or abroad.
While the world struggles to control Covid-19, the pandemic has starkly exposed weaknesses in health systems around the world. The rush to find treatments, vaccines and technology has created opportunities for lack of transparency and corruption in research and development and procurement. The pressures of Covid-19 have highlighted how corruption and lack of transparency in health can mean the difference between life and death for the public and health workers alike.
With support from the Swedish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Transparency International Global Health Programme is working to ensure that the ongoing Covid-19 Vaccine rollout is free from corruption. We are working with TI’s national chapters and partners in Bangladesh, Uganda and Zambia to ensure that the vaccine rollout is conducted in an equitable and transparent manner, so that governments and international bodies are aware of the risk and are able to ensure that the right people are not prevented from being vaccinated through corruption. This will reduce the spread of Covid-19 and increase the effectiveness of national responses to the pandemic, which is key to preventing national health systems from being further weakened by the pandemic.
With Covid-19 having made the case for tackling corruption in the health sector like never before, we are recruiting for a Project Manager to lead on the implementation of this exciting new project.
About the role
You will use your existing project management skills, gained working on the delivery of programmes in the health sector, to ensure the successful delivery of a 3 country project aimed at ensuring equity and transparency in the COVID vaccine rollout.
You will be responsible for the management and delivery of the project, ensuring that it delivers on time, on budget and to high quality. You will manage the relationship with multiple partners in country and potentially build new partners.
The successful candidate will contribute to the further development of our work on accountability and transparency in the health sector. You will work closely with the rest of the global health team to develop innovative new programmes that ensure health systems are transparent and accountable to the populations they serve.

About us
We are a charity dedicated to ensuring that people most impacted by injustice are leading campaigns that affect their lives, from better housing to fairer treatment of migrants to LGBTQ+ rights. Our mission is to support people to run effective campaigns that challenge injustice. We do this by running campaign training programmes that help people develop the skills, confidence and community to change things that matter to them. In our trainings, we prioritise people from communities directly impacted by injustice.
Participants might be low-income, working-class people, people of colour, disabled people, LGBTQ+ people and migrants, refugees and asylum seekers.
Our graduates testify before Parliament, organise national demonstrations, change laws and wage important, successful campaigns. They are from diverse and marginalised communities and our evaluation shows that they are developing confidence in their ability to affect change and are making meaningful ‘wins’ towards achieving their aims on a broad range of issues such as; violence in a community, access to public space, fairness in the asylum system, and women’s inclusion and safety in leisure centres.
About the job
We are seeking a Logistics Coordinator who will help us set up and deliver our learning programme for campaigners and trainers. These programmes will be residential, online, community-based and event-based. They will be delivered to individual campaigners, community groups, charitable partner clients. The Logistics Coordinator role is a varied position that gives you an opportunity to work in lots of different ways. Each day is different in this role. One day you could be creating social media materials to recruit new people to our trainings, the next, you could be coordinating venues, catering and transportation for a residential training, or talking to a participant about their access needs and how we can best accommodate them.
Your role is to help ensure that all our participants have a great experience of our learning programmes by recruiting people to our programmes and then making sure that all of their technical, logistical and access needs are met. We are looking for someone who can think creatively about how to best support people (Would it help for people to have a guide explaining how to use Zoom? How can we reach people who have been in the care system to let them know that there is a scholarship available for them to attend our residential?) and someone who has rigorous attention to detail, for example, ensuring that all dietary needs are communicated accurately to the caterer or our complex schedule for processing hundreds of applications to the residential programmes is well coordinated. The tasks you do on any given day may be different, but they are all about making sure participants feel supported, prepared and have what they need to engage with the training. Some work may be outside office hours.
About the team
The successful applicant will join our newly formed Logistics team for programme delivery. Managed by the Logistics and Operations Manager you will be working closely with the different programmes to support participant and trainers needs.
We know there is a huge demand for our work, so are working hard to grow our organisation in a sustainable way. You’ll be a key part of doing that - by helping our colleagues deliver efficient, powerful programmes.

Fight for Peace is an international non- governmental organisation (NGO) thatsupports young people to achieve their full potential and helps create peaceful communities. The organisation was founded in Rio de Janeiro, in 2000, and set up in London in 2007.
We believe the choices young people make are based on the opportunities and support they have access to, as well as the way they see themselves, how they relate to others, and how they see their future. That’s why Fight for Peace invests in young people, offering integrated and holistic programmes in a safe environment.
Strategically we focus on three main activities: firstly, we provide direct services to young people through our Academies in London and Rio; secondly, we support youth-focused partner organisations who are members of the Fight for Peace Alliance; and thirdly, through our Collectives - currently in Newham and Jamaica - we work with local partners, government bodies, donors and the private sector, to generate greater impact in preventing violence in communities.
A PUBLIC HEALTH APPROACH TO VIOLENCE PREVENTION
Fight for Peace uses a public health model which focuses on three levels of violence prevention. We offer universal services that provide opportunities and support for all young people living in communities affected by crime and violence. We also focus on individuals or groups identified as being at risk of becoming victims or perpetrators of crime and violence. And we support young people most at risk of harm, or causing harm, to disengage from crime and violence, and work to prevent them reoffending or being victimised again.
OUR LONDON ACADEMY
We set up our London Academy in North Woolwich in 2007 to provide services to children and young people aged 7 to 25 in the borough of Newham and beyond. Today, the Academy usually works with around 900 young people annually and acts as a training hub for our Fight for Peace Alliance member organisations. It is also the location from which we coordinate our London-based Collectives. In response to the coronavirus pandemic, many of our services are being provided online.
THE FIGHT FOR PEACE FIVE PILLARS
Our Academies use a Five Pillars methodology, drawing on non-traditional methods to engage young people where conventional methods aren’t working. Through boxing and martial arts, young people build strength and discipline, gain self-respect and learn that success comes through hard work and dedication. We offer formal education programmes for young people who are not at school to re-engage with their learning, and employability support and training for young people to get access to the job market and progress in their professional lives.
Through our Support Services, specialist youth workers support young people to overcome issues they may be facing at school, at home or in their personal lives. And our Youth Leaders help to design programmes, develop strategies and make decisions at every level of our organisation.
In this way, we provide young people with the tools and support structures they need to become life champions and create positive futures for themselves
In 2015, Fight for Peace launched Collectives to establish a location-specific, multi-agency approach to promoting youth safety in areas affected by inequality and violence, to ensure young people can access the range of support they need. Collectives have been implemented in Kingston, Jamaica and Cape Town, South Africa.
NEWHAM PARTNERSHIPS
Fight for Peace launched the Pan-Newham Partnership in January 2020. This is a pilot of the collective impact approach in the borough of Newham, London. Fight for Peace facilitates and coordinates the work of the partnership which includes 30 organisations working with young people and families across the voluntary sector, public sector, health and the private sector. The vision of the partnership is to facilitate collaboration between organisations to increase opportunities for young people and improve youth safety in the borough.
PAN-NEWHAM PROJECT COORDINATOR ROLE OVERVIEW
Working closely with the Newham Partnerships Manager and Academy staff, the post holder will have responsibility for the development of the Pan-Newham Partnership; maintaining relationships, facilitating training, learning and best practice and scoping opportunities for genuine collaboration between sectors across the borough.
The postholder will be expected to adhere to Fight for Peace values and policies (including safeguarding) at all times and always put the needs of young people first.
nterested candidates should send their CV and a covering letter of no more than 2 pages setting out why they are interested in the role, and clearly summarising their experience against the specific areas of responsibility set out above.

Job Title: Gleaning Co-Ordinator
Reporting To: Supply Manager
Salary: £22-24k Pro Rata
Contract type: 12-month fixed term contract, 0.6 FTE (3 days a week)
About The Felix Project
The Felix Project is London's biggest food redistribution charity and the largest end-to-end food redistribution charity in Europe.
Our vision is a London where no one goes hungry and good food is never wasted.
We rescue surplus food from businesses, supermarkets, restaurants and farms. This food is nutritious, in-date, and safe and includes a high proportion of fresh vegetables, fruit, meat and fish. If we did not rescue this food, it would be at risk of going to waste. Instead, we deliver it free of charge to London charities, schools, food banks, COVID food hubs and other organisations serving people in need. Our food is a vital lifeline for children and families, people on low incomes, people who have lost their jobs, the homeless, refugees, domestic abuse survivors, the elderly and keyworkers.
We are a very ambitious and dynamic young charity, and we haven’t stopped growing since we were founded in 2016 in memory of Felix Byam Shaw, by his father, entrepreneur Justin Byam Shaw. We recently ran a very high-profile media campaign with the Evening Standard and Independent, raising £10million to feed London. We have celebrity endorsement from Reece James, Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Jack Whitehall, Stephen Fry, James May and many others.
Last year we delivered enough food for 21.1 million meals to help people in need. We have continuing major growth plans for the next 4 years, with a target of delivering enough food for 100 million meals by 2024. Because nearly all the food we receive is donated by the food industry and volunteers, every £1 of expenditure redistributes £10 worth of food.
Purpose of the Job
The Gleaning Co-Ordinator is an important role in our rapidly growing charity. You will be required to oversee all gleaning activity, this involves contacting farms to understand opportunities available, preparing equipment and liaising with key stakeholders across the organisation and managing volunteers on the gleans.

Dealing with thousands of visitors each month, our rehoming centres are the face of Dogs Trust and we pride ourselves on our staff providing the very best in customer service.
In this role you will recruit, select and induct new volunteers, providing support throughout their volunteer journey with us. As part of the wider Dogs Trust volunteering strategy, you will play a key role in ensuring best practice is followed, achieving high volunteer standards. A strong relationship manager, you’ll build relationships with staff across the centre, the Volunteering Development team and the wider organisation to deliver an excellent volunteer experience. Where volunteers are shared across services, you will liaise with the Supporter Relations Officer, over occasional volunteer support for fundraising activities, the Home from Home Coordinator in support of our home fostering service and, where appropriate, with the local Dogs Trust Charity Shop Managers over any volunteers shared between the shops and the rehoming centre.
The successful candidate will have a good understanding of customer care and the role of volunteers in an organisation, including their integration, management and motivation. You'll have excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, and strong leadership skills with ability to engage and work effectively with large groups of people with varying backgrounds and skill levels. You will also have a positive attitude, methodical approach to work with the ability to work under your own initiative. But above all a passion and commitment to work and the goals of Dogs Trust.
A full, manual, UK driving licence is also required.
