We have an opportunity for a new colleague to join our fundraising team, where you’ll work alongside operational teams and young people to design effective projects that build on young people’s strengths and meet their needs.

We are particularly keen to increase applications from Black and Minority Ethnic groups and Male candidates as they are currently under-represented in our organisation.

There has never been a more exciting time to join 1625 Independent People. Last year, our fundraising team raised over £1.3 million with the support of Strategic Leadership,  operational teams and young people. We are investing in an ambitious fundraising strategy to help us deeply engage more supporters in our work so that we can be there for even more young people.

We are a leading youth homelessness charity based in the South West, working with over 1,500 young people. We have strong local partnerships and develop, learn and share best practice in the sector. We build trusting relationships between our young people, our colleagues and partners and this is at the core of our work.

• Someone who is proactive, with the ability to identify opportunities and the confidence to start conversations with potential funders that result in successful partnerships and funding based on shared goals. 
• Someone who can understand what funders are looking for in a winning funding bid, who understands what good project design looks like.
• Someone with a passion for helping vulnerable young people, who is looking to work as part of a small team where they can make a real difference for thousands of talented young people.
• Someone with an interest in developing their skills in partnership with large funders, and developing an understanding of best-practice in youth work.

What you will be doing:

• You’ll be working as part of a small and friendly fundraising team. You will lead on funding projects in line with our Fundraising Strategy that you will have autonomy over, and we trust you to manage your own workload. You’ll be part of a funding team that has secured substantial funding from some of the most progressive funders in the UK. 
• You’ll be collaborating with various teams (operations, finance, senior leaders) to develop these funding proposals from a pipeline that you have developed. You’ll be leading the writing and co-ordination of these proposals, managing all elements to submit an excellent proposal.
• You’ll be responsible for developing and sustaining relationships with current and new funders, including hosting meetings with funders.
• You’ll ensure that we listen to young people, act on their ideas, build on their strengths, and meet their needs through new funding.
• You will be in the Fundraising and Comms Team, within our Central Services Department, and your line manager will be our Fundraising and Comms Manager, Hannah Barry.

What we are offering: 

• As a small funding and partnerships team, you’ll have opportunities to support all parts of the income generation in the charity and the opportunity to develop new sources of revenue. There is scope for progression in this role as you develop. Evidence of successful funding will support our business case to invest more in fundraising, review the structure and grow the team. This will be dependent on proven funding success.
• The opportunity to work alongside partners and funders that share your passion for enabling young people to succeed in life.
• Continuous support and supervision, including reflective practice, to develop your learning and skills as a practitioner.
• This is a permanent position, and on a full-time basis, there will be some home working available.

Job Description

OVERVIEW

We are looking for someone to generate income from Trusts and Foundations so that our award-winning environmental charity can maximise its impact. You may not be an experienced fundraiser but if you have the skills and passion for the role, our work inspires you and our culture and values resonate, then we want to hear from you.

Hubbub works with some of the UK’s top charitable funders, as well as some of its best-known companies, from Tesco to BT. Our positive, innovative, impactful work saw us named ‘Charity of the Year’ at the Charity Times Awards in 2020. It reflected the difference we have made with campaigns ranging from the Community Fridge Network, which distributes millions of meals’ worth of surplus food each year, to a £1m grant fund for innovative projects tackling plastic pollution. We are seeing more opportunities to work with large charitable donors, and need to expand our team to make the most of them.

WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR

Your skills and attributes are more important than your fundraising track record (although experience generating income is, of course, a big plus!). This role could suit you if:

• You’re aligned with our values (see below)

• You write brilliantly. You balance creative flair with clear and concise prose.

• You enjoy research. You can swiftly synthesise information and concepts and break them down for others.

• You are comfortable with numbers and at ease when building and analysing budgets.

• You are passionate about the environment and sustainability.

• You love to work as part of a team, and pride yourself on your listening skills.

• Your attention to detail is second to none. Or should that be ‘second-to-none’?

THE ROLE

You’ll be the first dedicated fundraiser in a team of over 40 people and will play a big part in defining the scope of the role. You might develop crowdfunding opportunities, for example, or work with tech companies on innovative micro-philanthropy partnerships. You’ll receive the support you need to grow, and you’ll have the opportunity to help define Hubbub’s long-term approach to fundraising.

The key functions of this role are:

• To meet income targets by creating high quality budgeted proposals for potential funders.
• To identify potential funders among grant-making institutions in the UK and beyond.
• To liaise with Directors and Senior Creative Partners to identify projects that could be funded by grant-makers.
• To ensure that all reporting requirements are met for secured grants by working closely with the Impact Director and project delivery teams.
• To build strong ongoing relationships with existing and potential funders.
• To support other activities that will generate funds, including writing proposals for corporate partnerships and tenders.

BENEFITS

• 25 days per year holiday allowance, plus bank holidays and extended Christmas break
• Ongoing professional development through our training partner, You Can Now
• 5% employer pension contribution
• Yoga and HIIT classes, and more
• Office at Somerset House with resident discounts and perks
• Flexible working. Our office is in London and our salaries include London weighting. If you're based elsewhere you'll need to be able to come to London regularly at your own expense. We're still working out exactly what 'regularly' means, but perhaps 1-3X/month.
