Christians Against Poverty is a dynamic and growing mission with a strong vision, award winning culture and passionate workforce. CAP exists to equip the local church so that it may effectively serve the poor and proclaim Jesus. We have developed highly effective expertise to break into the hellish mix of poverty, isolation, chaos and severe stress, delivering hope, peace, and freedom through our compassion and technical excellence. Due to our debt help work, we are authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority and are required to meet high regulatory standards.

Working at CAP is exhilarating because we experience partnership with the living Christ and the power of His resurrection as we see thousands of people freed from debt, connected with a loving community and saved. We have a huge, collective ambition to see people freed from poverty, and to see them come to know Jesus’ abundant life and find belonging in his family.

CAP’s work in the UK is delivered through over 300 head office staff in Bradford who serve the frontline teams and volunteers that make up a vibrant network of around 600 community franchise centres. CAP UK, as the founding national franchise, also supports and equips country franchises growing in Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and America.

CAP lives out the belief that culture eats strategy for breakfast (though we’re pretty keen on strategy too, so we have that for lunch). We invest in and seek to thoroughly integrate our core values into who we are and how we do what we do. To join CAP is to commit to growing with us into being more Christ centred, generous, passionate, united, compassionate, fun, excellent and courageous.

The role of the Director of Technology and Digital Transformation, reporting into Jon Day our COO, is a critical one, particularly at this time in leading the digital transformation of our flagship debt service.  We are looking for a Director to provide the sophisticated and inspiring leadership required to take our services to the next level.

We are passionate about seeing the people of Durham flourish. Following a recent successful funding bid, we are looking for three self-motivated faith-filled people who would love to come and work with us at a senior level to enable this flourishing. If you are gifted in project management, supporting charitable projects towards sustainability, and enjoy being part of a mutually supportive team then one of these roles could be for you.

Fundraising Manager – Individual Giving
Deptford, London (home based currently)

If you have a background in individual giving income generation and management, this is an exciting opportunity to join an ambitious charity that helps to feed the nation’s most vulnerable people.

About Us

We are FareShare, the UK’s largest charity fighting hunger and food waste. We are a charitable distribution network that takes excess, in-date and good to eat food and redistributes it to other charities that turn it into meals.

The COVID-19 pandemic has created an even greater need for our work. During this time, we’ve trebled the amount of food distributed to support vulnerable people. 

Until recently, the majority of our fundraising focus and successes have been on corporate partnerships and income from trusts and foundations. We have some fantastic and loyal individual donors, as well as thousands of new supporters thanks to phenomenal response to our COVID-19 emergency appeal.

It is imperative that we continue to expand our income streams to convert this new level of support into funds that can help those most in need. As such, we are looking for a Fundraising Manager to join us, focusing on our individual giving income stream. 

The Benefits 

- Salary of up to £40,000 per annum 
- Pension
- Travelcard loans (if required) 
- Cycle to work scheme 
- Employee assistance programme

This is an incredible opportunity to take on a new role in our organisation, drive innovation in our supporter experience and use insight to shape, test and refine our individual giving strategy. 

COVID-19 has made day-to-day life even harder for vulnerable people, but we are passionate about our cause and overcoming the challenges that lie ahead.

We are doers. We are a community. We change lives. If you think you could thrive as part of our forward-thinking team, we’d love to hear from you.

The Role

As the Fundraising Manager, you will lead and develop our individual giving programmes, inspiring and motivating donors to engage with the organisation more often and more deeply.

You will develop existing and new propositions, products, audiences, channels and technology and deliver creative supporter journeys that build long-term loyalty and value.

Additionally, you will:

- Manage, plan and deliver multi-channel and data-driven engagement with individuals
- Oversee the planning and delivery of a new programme of multi-channel activities which support regular and one-off cash donations
- Create an inspiring donor experience that builds long-term engagement 
- Work with the Fundraising Marketing Officer to deliver a great supporter experience 
- Provide insight and evaluation on our donor audience, campaign performance and opportunities
- Work with the Head of Fundraising, Corporate Partnerships Manager and Senior Trusts & Grants Manager to manage major donor relationships and processes

About You 

To join us as a Fundraising Manager, you’ll need:

- Experience of individual giving income generation and management 
- Previous experience of creating activity programmes and business plans to recruit, engage, inspire and retain donors
- Experience of creating and delivering multi-channel campaigns and using digital channels to acquire new donors 
- A track record of providing excellent customer and/or donor care 
- Experience of using Salesforce or a similar database and audience segmentation and using data analytics 
- Solid knowledge of the regulatory environment for fundraising from individuals, including data protection, Gift Aid and fundraising codes of practice and regulation
- Good analytical, forecasting and numeracy skills 
- Proficiency in emailing systems such as ActiveCampaign or Mailchimp

Experience of any of the following would be beneficial: line management, major donor relationship management, or working with a fundraising board.

Other organisations may call this role Individual Giving Manager, Fundraising Programme Manager, Donor Manager, Supporter Experience Manager, Senior Fundraising Officer, or Senior Fundraising Executive.

The closing date for applications is 9am on the 20th July 2020. Interviews will take place during the week commencing the 27th July 2020.

This is an exciting time in our diocese, with the launch of the vision of Transforming Church, Transforming Lives in 2016 leading to significant new missional energy in many of our churches, chaplaincies and schools. It’s been especially encouraging to witness the development of around 80 new worshipping communities since the launch, including four major projects in areas of new housing.

Over the past two years we have moved our diocesan teams into new, attractive, open-plan offices on the University of Surrey Research Park; and more recently we have embarked on a major review of the services we offer, seeking to ensure that our diocesan strategy gets well embedded, that our resources are efficiently managed, and that Church House Guildford is genuinely scratching where the parishes are itching. Note that due to the covid pandemic, our teams are currently working remotely from the safety of their homes.

We are looking for a proven practitioner and skilled technical and digital professional who can help us shape, plan and deliver the migration of our processes, systems and information to web-based services. In doing so you will help us to further streamline and improve our workflows at Church House whilst also making it easier for our parishes to access information.

We want someone with the right mix of experiences who can challenge, inspire and deliver in this area of specialism, but also a colleague who shares the passion and heart to reach and serve communities in this place.

The role is for 14 hours per week (work pattern negotiable) on a fixed term contract for 12 months. Our salaries are competitive within the charity sector with a generous non-contributory pension provision. Due to the Covid pandemic, we are currently able to work remotely from the safety of our own homes.

If you have the experience we are looking for and a passion to join us in our journey, we welcome an application from you. Your application should consist of a completed application form and supporting statement (no more than two sides of A4) detailing your reasons for applying, what you can bring to the post and how you meet its requirements. The closing date for receipt of applications has been extended and is now 12 noon on Wednesday 15 July 2020.

We look forward to hearing from you!

We are seeking a 3-4 day Manager. Please state clearly in your application the number of hours/days you prefer.

NJC Spinal Column point 25, £28,785 p.a. pro rata

We are pleased to be recruiting a Delivery and Innovation Manager(s) to support the Head of Community Support to further develop and enhance our VCSE support offer

The role will research, develop, test, launch and embed new support products and services into our existing work streams. This could be as straightforward as a new online training course or more complex, for example working with a range of VCSE partners across Yorkshire to find a joint solution to address a systemic problem or fill a gap in provision.

You’ll need to work right across the charity to make the most of our existing staff’s skills, knowledge and experience, and have great stakeholder management abilities to get the best from, and for, external partners and suppliers. You won’t have a team working for you, so you will need to work collaboratively with colleagues to meet your deadlines to ensure products and services are delivered to time, budget and to the quality standard we would expect.

The senior management team will want you to provide regular progress updates against work plans and evidence based intelligence to help shape and develop the service’s offer. As a member of the Community Support management team you’ll take shared ownership of the service, collectively and collaboratively shaping new service offers, adapting delivery models, and providing exceptional client support.  

We are looking for a rare combination of skills – a creative, thoughtful manager who is also able to work in a solution and process driven way with great project management skills. It’s no good having a great idea if it comes to fruition 6 months too late – conversely it would not be helpful to deliver a poorly thought through concept on time! You’ll need to be able to take an idea or concept, research the best approaches, seek input from across the charity and wider VCSE, test and trial and then embed as business as usual.  All while maintaining a strong vision for what you wish to achieve and keeping a sense of humour about the barriers you will inevitably face in trying to make it a reality.

It’s a challenging job and no two days will be the same. Hopefully you’ll be excited about helping us give the voluntary and community sector inspiring and effective tools to do amazing things with, and for, their communities.

CLOSING DATE FOR APPLICATIONS: 10am on Monday, 27th July 2020 INTERVIEWS: Wednesday 19th August 2020 (possibly online by Zoom)
