About Lloyds Bank Foundation
Lloyds Bank Foundation for England and Wales is an independent charitable foundation, backed by Lloyds Banking Group and the people within it. We want everyone to be in a good place - personally, in a home that’s a good place to live, and in a community that’s a good place to belong.
We play our role by connecting and catalysing community-led change, providing the money, time, tools and connections that build organisations’ capacity and capability, to make people’s lives better and their communities stronger.
We back people and communities across England and Wales, to make that happen, because when you back brilliant people, brilliant things happen. Our communities are full of ambitious, energetic and determined people stepping up to make their neighbours’ lives better and their communities grow stronger. Day in, day out.
About the Role
This is an exciting opportunity to help build something new.
As Philanthropy & Investment Lead you'll:
- Lead the Foundation's Philanthropy Pilot and help shape the first stages of a digital giving service through the Lloyds Bank app.
- Take a leading role in turning an ambitious idea into a successful and scalable proposition, working across the Foundation, Lloyds Banking Group, clients, charities and partners to bring people together around a shared vision.
- Provide the day-to-day leadership required to make the Pilot a success.
- Coordinate activity across the organisation, develop strong external partnerships, oversee commissioned support, and ensure the work is delivered effectively, safely and with clear learning and impact.
About You
You are a proactive self-starter who takes ownership, drives progress at pace and turns ambitious ideas into practical outcomes. Comfortable working in a fast-moving and evolving environment, you solve problems as they arise, identify opportunities and maintain momentum through complexity and uncertainty.
You are an excellent relationship builder with the ability to bring people together around a shared vision. An outstanding communicator, you are equally comfortable engaging senior leaders, trustees, clients and external partners as you are building enthusiasm and commitment amongst colleagues. You have the credibility and judgement to represent the Foundation externally and to operate effectively with Boards and Executive Leadership Teams.
You will bring experience in philanthropy, fundraising, donor engagement, partnership development or a related field, alongside strong project and programme management skills.
This role would suit someone who enjoys creating momentum, navigating complexity and uncertainty, and turning ambitious ideas into practical outcomes.
