Trust and Foundations Manager

New City College recruitment pack

Role overview

Job title Trust and Foundations Manager

Salary Starting at £38,900

Location Poplar High St, Poplar, London E14 0AF

Reports to Senior Projects Manager

Work closely with Senior management team; Poplar campus redevelopment team; Finance

Type of position Full-time, permanent

Introduction to New City College

New City College (NCC) is the fourth largest further education college in England. It has been formed through five mergers: the merger between Tower Hamlets College and Hackney Community College in August 2016 and subsequent mergers with Redbridge College in April 2017, Epping Forest College in August 2018 and the mergers with Havering College of Further and Higher Education and Havering Sixth Form College in August 2019.

NCC currently has over 25,000 students with a small provision of 14-15 education, a large cohort of 16-18 students and a significant number of adult students. It offers over a 100 courses from A Levels, BTECs and ESOL to vocational subjects, such as business, IT, performing arts, trade skills and catering as well as pre-University courses. Throughout its intensive period of growth, NCC has maintained a focus on students and teaching and learning.

NCC is based in east London and has 10 sites in five local authorities: Tower Hamlets, Hackney, Redbridge, Epping Forest and Havering. The College continues to maintain its strong local presence, serving the needs of its local communities.

Join an ambitious and exciting redevelopment project

The College has an ambitious plan to redevelop its campus in Poplar. Located on Poplar High Street, right next to Poplar DLR station and within 200m of Canary Wharf and Crossrail, the current campus is formed of an amalgam of buildings from different areas. The oldest part is a 1894 Poplar library building and it includes a grade II listed Naval College from 1906. Newer parts of the building are from 1990 and 2006. The current building is inefficient and it is no longer future proofed to accommodate education and training provision for decades to come.

As such, the College is looking to redevelop the new campus into a state-of-the-art education facility which provides a flexible learning environment, is aligned with industry requirements, is green, accessible and sustainable and celebrates the heritage of the local area and the Naval College. The new campus will be funded through an enabling development, built on the same site as the new campus. There is also an opportunity to enhance the public realm around the new development, including invigorating Poplar High Street.

Could this be the future campus in Poplar?

As part of the early planning for the redevelopment, NCC has worked with fundraising consultancy More Partnership to assess the overall potential to seek philanthropic support for aspects of the redevelopment, including specific subject areas and student groups. From this, it is clear that there is considerable scope to engage Trusts and Foundations with the project, and that resulting impact NCC has on the lives of young people in this part of London. 

As a result, NCC now wishes to appoint a Trusts and Foundations Manager to lead this work, and in so doing, to put in place a long-term and sustainable grant-focused fundraising programme.

Interviews will take place week commencing: 13th January 2020

If you wish to apply please email your CV and a supporting statement of no more than two sides of A4 explaining how you meet the requirements of the role.

About StreetDoctors

StreetDoctors teaches lifesaving skills to young people at risk of youth violence across the UK. We do this through our movement of young healthcare volunteers who teach emergency first aid to 11-25 year olds. Our interactive training sessions are delivered in partnership with criminal justice services, schools, pupil referral units, sports and community groups. Our sessions give young people the vital skills and confidence to act if someone is bleeding or unconscious. We provide safe spaces to explore attitudes to violence, including its true medical consequences. We empower young people to become street doctors in their communities helping to keep themselves and others safe.

About the role

This is a really exciting opportunity to work alongside our Senior Team with responsibility for devising and delivering a new fundraising strategy. We want to diversify and grow our income from trusts, statutory funders, companies, major donors and community fundraising. You will therefore be responsible for prioritizing fundraising pipeline prospects and meeting ambitious targets with an initial focus on major trust funds, followed by the delivery of a funding diversification programme.

You will relish a challenge and want to take a leadership role at StreetDoctors. You will be passionate about reducing youth violence and the importance of youth social action and be able to build strong relationships with all StreetDoctors stakeholders. You will also demonstrate a genuine commitment to the organisation’s growth and success and to its unique mission.

Candidate profile

You will be an ambitious, high level strategic thinker. You’ll have a proven track record of leading successful high-level trust, statutory, corporate or major donor fundraising, ideally on a multi-year basis, and a willingness to work across a mixed portfolio of prospects. You will be experienced in developing creative and successful fundraising proposals and have demonstrable success in the stewardship of donors to maximise funding opportunities.

You’ll need to be adaptable, flexible and as comfortable rolling your sleeves up and getting involved in practical tasks as you are in dealing with high level fundraising activities. You will have a track record of effective relationship management and of successful strategic planning for long term fundraising activities, considering risks as well as opportunities.

You need to be a team player, aligned with the values of volunteering and social action. You will be practical and focused, able to work independently and function as a vital part of a small team. You will be reliable and organised with excellent verbal and written communication skills.

StreetDoctors is committed to ensuring that we are a welcoming, inclusive and diverse team which benefits from a broad spectrum of experiences and backgrounds. We are currently underrepresented in terms of diversity and lived experience of youth violence and so would particularly welcome applications from these groups.

Please note it is StreetDoctors policy that all post holders are subject to a DBS check
