The Funding Policy and Practice Manager role is housed in the Funding Policy and Practice team within the Funding Strategy, Innovation and UK Directorate.

You will work with teams across the Fund to ensure these policies are established and effective in practice. From time to time you may develop broader policy and practice positions that affect the whole of The Fund.

The right person for this role flourishes in complexity and relishes the challenges of finding the best path through overlapping and often competing agendas. They are adept at managing a diverse and ever-changing workload, and setting their own priorities in response to insights from a wide variety of sources, including our grant-holders, colleagues, senior management team, and external stakeholders.

Key responsibilities may include:

• Revising existing or developing new funding policy and practice positions and guidance within governance frameworks.
• Managing policy and practice relationships with internal and external stakeholders to ensure that our position and practice is robust and delivering our It Starts with Community strategy.
• Developing policy and practice around our funding mechanisms.
