Home/Field Based (with travel across the North of England and occasional travel to London)
About Us
The Centre for Social Justice (CSJ) is a not-for-profit organisation that fights the causes and impact of poverty across the UK. We have built a network of over 400 small grassroots charitable organisations which enable us to learn from those who understand the true nature of poverty and work to make life better.
Following a highly successful trial programme in the Midlands which resulted in nearly £400,000 in philanthropic donations and three significant policy projects, we have now received multimillion-pound government funding to roll our programme out in locations across Britain.
We’re an award-winning organisation and studies have shown we are considered one of the most influential think tanks in the UK by two of the largest political parties.
We’re now looking for a Regional Manager to oversee our activities in the North of England and help us to influence policy at the highest levels of government.
The Benefits
- Salary of £40,000 - £50,000 DOE
- Workplace pension scheme
- Impact poverty across the North of England
- Make real change
This is an engaging and exciting opportunity for a senior level charitable professional to take on a fresh challenge with an organisation that is changing government policies and the approach to poverty from the ground up.
You will have the chance to make a real impact on poverty right across the North as you engage with charities and develop an understanding of the difficulties facing people in their everyday lives. Not only will you support and influence changes to public policy and the government agenda, but you will also be able to experience first-hand the changes that are made and how they impact lives.
So, if you feel you could make a difference, bring about change and start the revolution against poverty in the North of England with one of the most influential think tanks in the UK today, we want to hear from you.
The Role
As a Regional Manager, you will be tasked with leading our local hub in the North of England to grow our charitable alliance and network. You will play a key role in painting a regional picture of poverty throughout the North whilst also helping to provide the solutions that will enable communities to realise their potential.
Specifically, you will build and maintain relationships right across the North, engaging with local organisations and communities and acting as the key point of contact for the North for the CSJ.
Bringing together Senior Philanthropists, business leaders and grant-givers, you will help co-ordinate investments for game-changing work. You will also have the chance to work alongside other Regional Managers to direct the activity of the Westminster policy office.
About You
To be considered as a Regional Manager, you will need:
- Experience in a senior role and knowledge of how to lead
- Experience of working in, or closely with, small and/or medium sized charities
- An understanding of the pressures involved in this work and the ability to help others accordingly
- Proven influencing skills
- The ability to manage relationships across the spectrum of society and win people over to the mission of the CSJ
- Excellent skills in working collaboratively, in partnership with local and national influencers, to bring clarity to difficult questions and offer solutions to real problems
- The willingness to link in closely with other regional offices and the CSJ team in Westminster, travelling to meetings when required
- A full, valid driving licence and access to your own transport
A portfolio of connections in charities, foundations and trusts across the North of England would be beneficial to your application.
Other organisations may call this role Regional Hub Manager, Charitable Hub Manager, Philanthropy Manager, Charitable Operations Manager, Strategic Partnerships Manager, Partnerships Manager, or Northern Hub Manager.
The closing date for this role is the 10th April 2020.

We're proud to be heading up the search party for one of the UK's leading children's charities who are looking for a Philanthropy Manager covering the Yorkshire patch. It's a brand-new role within a successful, growing philanthropy team and a brilliant opportunity to gain national charity experience working to support some of the region's most vulnerable children.
Home-based with tons of flexibility, it's a grown-up culture open to suggested working patterns with a charity that understands the importance of life and family-friendly working. Condensed hours, a 9-day fortnight and 4 days per week are all possible.
You'll be working with high net worth individuals to secure major gifts across a wide ranging portfolio from £5k to over £100k. There are some existing relationships to hand over, but the purpose of this role is to grow income and generate new business so you'll need to be comfortable with that. Working closely with existing major donors and colleagues across corporate and community fundraising teams, there is plenty of opportunity to open up your network and make new connections, as well as using your creative business development head to find untrodden paths.
Ideally, we're looking for a major gifts expert, although this role could work equally well with a talented candidate from the commercial sector with experience of high net worth individuals. This role could also suit a corporate or trusts fundraiser looking for their first philanthropy job. Whatever your background, you'll be a highly motivated, target-driven person with exceptional stewardship and relationship management skills who is comfortable in making asks for significant figures. This isn't the job for a maverick: you'll need to be a collaborative team player who understands that a sharing and supportive culture yields better results and that, sometimes, a colleague will be better placed to manage a relationship than you.
If you're the person we're looking for, please send a copy of your CV to Charity People's Yorkshire consultant, Amelia Lee, for lots more detail.
Closing date: 9am on 10th April
