The Bike Project is fortunate to be supported by a wide range of Trusts & Foundations, Major Donors and Corporates as well as many committed members of the public. In 2023, we took the decision to consolidate and bring in-house our fundraising activity. Over the past twelve months we have worked hard to ensure that we create a virtuous circle in our fundraising and engagement activity, for example, looking at how our corporate partners can engage their employees to support our work.
This is a new role which will lead on major donor fundraising and development of corporate partnerships and earned income through an in-house employee servicing and team away-day offer. As the charity moves forward, it is critical that we strengthen and diversify our unrestricted income streams and this is an exciting opportunity to shape a key are of fundraising that will contribute to that goal and the future sustainability of our charity.
This role will work closely with the Chief Executive, Head of Marketing and Fundraising and Head of Grants and Impact on a shared approach to fundraising. We work in a joined-up way to ensure that we take full advantage of every opportunity to maximise benefit for our bike recipients. In particular, you will work closely with the Chief Executive to manage some of our most significant relationships, ensuring that our donors and partners are well looked-after, kept up to date on our activities and understand the impact of their support.
Being a small charity, we work in an agile manner which allows for creative ideas to flourish and new ideas to be implemented quickly. We hold donation sessions weekly out of our London and Birmingham workshops, so there is opportunity to see the impact of your work first hand.
As a team member at the Bike Project you’ll enjoy a fantastic benefits package, including extended family leave, a standard holiday allowance starting at 25 days and increasing with each year of service, access to the Reward Hub, and an Employee Assistance Program.

The Bike Project’s mission is simple – to match up refugees without the means or money to travel, with the thousands of abandoned or unwanted bikes in the UK.
People seeking asylum are forced to live off less than £9 per day and those lucky enough to get refugee status still face high unemployment and isolation. A bike links people to essential services, including foodbanks and legal advice, as well as the local community.

The Emergence Trust (currently known as The JJ Charitable Trust) was founded in 1992. A part of the Sainsbury Family Charitable Trusts, the Trust works with organisations to tackle deep rooted systems within education, economics, and culture (values, beliefs and narratives) to help catalyse a fundamental paradigm shift towards a truly sustainable future.
The Trust has a history of supporting environmental and educational initiatives, supporting social and community experimentation around regenerative and circular economies, and improving the effectiveness of literacy teaching for children with learning difficulties.

In this role you will have the opportunity to catalyse change for a truly sustainable future, being responsible for collaborating on strategy and implementation with the Trustee board and alongside colleagues, but with large degrees of autonomy. This is a unique opportunity to meaningfully address the climate and nature crisis, whilst utilising your creative abilities and professional experience, and a chance to guide and steer cultural conversations as part of a supportive and collaborative team.

With an instinctive drive to discover, cultivate and connect emerging people, ideas, practices, systems, and organisations, you will be experienced in business development, strategic thinking and managing initiatives that create new forms of meaning or deliver meaningful change.
