You’ll have a track record of writing high quality applications to trusts and foundations with a keen eye for detail and an understanding of what funders want to see in an application.
You’re great with people
You’re going to be working with colleagues, partners and young people from a range of backgrounds. It is essential that you demonstrate the compassion and communication skills to build good relationships, and that you are dedicated to embedding equality, diversity and inclusion into all areas of your work.
You take a strategic approach
You apply a considered, research-informed approach, both when identifying and approaching funders. You manage our fundraising pipeline and prospects with the bigger picture in mind, but are also meticulous in your attention to detail, recognising the rigour required in collecting data and in record-keeping, as well as the nuances of grant-writing. You are exceptionally organised and can manage multiple funding deadlines.
You are proactive
You will take ownership and responsibility for Settle’s Trust and Foundation fundraising, and you’ll be able to take initiative as well as instruction, leading on projects independently as well as working collaboratively with other team members when required. You will be able to prioritise your time effectively and approach tasks strategically to reach targets.
You are reflective
You’re continually looking for opportunities to learn and improve, both on your own practice and on Settle’s fundraising practice more broadly. You’re able to recognise areas for development and demonstrate an appetite for continual professional development and growth. You use data and evidence to make decisions and are able to recognise and learn from mistakes. You view feedback as a gift and use it to shape your practice.
Our vision is a 21st century Britain where no young person is homeless and all young people get a fair chance at doing well.
