Trusts development manager jobs in Birmingham

Shape the future of Fréa – a unique partnership of three Irish charities working together to create greater impact.

We’re looking for an ambitious, creative fundraiser to build on a strong foundation and develop Fréa’s next generation of income and partnerships.

Fréa brings together three established Irish charities with a shared commitment to supporting Irish communities across the North of England. We believe that, by working together, we can achieve more than any of us can alone.

We are now looking for an exceptional Head of Fundraising and Development to help us realise that ambition.

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced fundraiser who enjoys building relationships, spotting opportunities and turning ideas into sustainable income. You will have the freedom to shape Fréa’s fundraising approach, develop new partnerships and funding streams, and help establish the partnership as an increasingly influential and sustainable organisation.

You will build on a strong platform already created by Fréa’s existing fundraising work, while bringing fresh thinking and new energy to its next stage of development. You will work closely with senior colleagues and Boards across the three partner charities, developing compelling propositions and identifying opportunities where Fréa can achieve more by working collectively.

Importantly, this is collaborative fundraising, not competitive fundraising. Fréa’s role is to complement and add value to the excellent fundraising already undertaken by its three partners. You will need the judgement to recognise when an opportunity is best pursued by Fréa, by an individual partner, or jointly – always respecting existing relationships with funders, donors and corporate partners.

We are looking for someone who combines fundraising expertise with relationship-building, creativity and excellent partnership skills. You will be comfortable working strategically while also getting stuck into the practical business of developing networks and events, cultivating relationships and securing income.

This is a rare opportunity to help shape the fundraising direction of an emerging partnership with an established history, a strong network and significant potential for growth.

If you are excited by the idea of building something collaboratively, creating new opportunities and helping three organisations achieve greater impact together, we would love to hear from you.

If you would like an informal chat about the role please contact any of the Fréa Trustees: Ant Hanlon Chief Executive at Leeds Irish Health and Homes, Breege McDaid, Director at Irish Community Care or Patrick Morrison, Chief Executive at Irish Community Care Manchester.

Salary: £38,000–£40,000 per annum
Location: Remote, with occasional UK travel. The line manager is based in Lancashire.
Contract: Permanent
Working pattern: Full-time preferred, flexible working considered

We expect significant interest in this role and may close the advert early if we receive a strong field of candidates.

What is The Multibank?

The Multibank is a clothes, bedding, baby, hygiene, toys and furniture bank all rolled into one.

Our idea is simple: businesses have surplus products that people need, while local charities and community organisations know the families who need them. The Multibank connects the two — getting essential products to people experiencing poverty, free at the point of delivery and with dignity at every step.

We were founded on the belief that businesses can help solve a social problem while addressing a business challenge. We take perfectly good products that businesses can no longer sell and put them to good use, helping alleviate some of the everyday challenges faced by families across the UK, while keeping products in use and contributing to a more sustainable economy.

While surplus is at the heart of our model, we also welcome product donations and use at-cost purchasing where needed to ensure we can provide the right products to meet demand.

We are a growing national charity, with an expanding network of Multibanks and an increasingly diverse group of business partners. As we grow, we're developing the supply partnerships, systems and processes needed to get more of the right products to more people.

What is the role and its impact?

We're looking for an experienced Supply & Partnerships Manager to take ownership of the day-to-day supply function at The Multibank.

You'll make sure products move efficiently from our supply partners through the Multibank network, while building strong relationships with suppliers and regional Multibanks and continually improving how we manage supply.

This is a hands-on role with significant responsibility. You'll manage the detail of stock offers, allocations and logistics, while also understanding the bigger picture and identifying opportunities to improve our systems, processes and supply base.

You'll work closely with the Director of Supply & Partnerships, taking ownership of operational supply and creating capacity for the Director to focus on strategic supply growth, senior partnerships and supporting the development of the wider Multibank network.

It's an opportunity to play a key role in helping The Multibank scale — ensuring we have the products, partnerships and systems needed to meet growing demand.

What you'll be working on

Supply operations

• You'll own the day-to-day movement of products from initial offer through to allocation and delivery.
• You'll act as the main operational contact for supply partners, providing a responsive and straightforward service.
• You'll coordinate product offers, allocations and deliveries across the Multibank network.
• You'll manage and triage the partnerships inbox, ensuring enquiries are responded to promptly.
• You'll work with Palletline and other logistics partners to coordinate the movement of products.
• You'll track stock movements and proactively identify and resolve issues.

Supply partnerships

• You'll build and maintain strong relationships with existing supply partners.
• You'll identify opportunities to increase the volume and range of support from existing partners.
• You'll prepare tailored partner updates and reports.
• You'll work with the Director of Supply & Partnerships on strategic partner relationships and new opportunities.

Supply development and insight

• You'll develop a strong understanding of product demand across the Multibank network.
• You'll identify gaps and opportunities across supply and demand.
• You'll support the development of new sources of surplus, donations and low-cost purchasing.
• You'll use data and insight to inform supply decisions and help us build a more diverse and resilient supply base.

Systems and improvement

• You'll own and improve the systems and processes used to manage supply.
• You'll identify operational bottlenecks and develop practical solutions.
• You'll improve visibility of supply, demand, allocations and stock movements.
• You'll lead or contribute to projects that enable the supply function to scale.

This job is for you if…

• You have experience in supply, operations, partnerships, account management or a similar role.
• You're comfortable managing multiple relationships, priorities and processes simultaneously.
• You're highly organised, with strong attention to detail.
• You have strong written and verbal communication skills.
• You're confident building trusted relationships with corporate partners and internal stakeholders.
• You're proactive, solutions-focused and comfortable taking ownership.
• You're able to work independently and make decisions with limited day-to-day direction.
• You're confident working with data and using insight to inform decisions.
• You're comfortable working in a fast-paced or growing organisation where priorities and processes can evolve.
• You care about The Multibank's mission and the difference our work makes.

Experience of logistics, surplus redistribution, donations or working within the charity/social impact sector would be advantageous, but you don't need to come from a traditional logistics background. We're interested in transferable experience and people who can demonstrate strong organisation, relationship management, problem-solving and attention to detail.

A growing charity

The Multibank is a relatively young charity that has grown quickly, with an entrepreneurial and ambitious culture. We are now at an exciting stage of development, building our team and putting the structures, policies and processes in place to support our next phase of growth. Many of these are still in their infancy, which means there is plenty of opportunity to shape how we work. To be successful in this role, you'll need to be comfortable with some ambiguity, enjoy finding practical solutions and be excited by the opportunity to help build the systems and processes of a growing charity.

Why join The Multibank?

This is an exciting time to join The Multibank. We're growing our national network and developing the supply model needed to support that growth.

You'll have the opportunity to shape how we manage supply at scale, strengthen relationships with businesses and help build access to the right products for the communities we support.

You'll also have significant autonomy and the opportunity to make a tangible difference in a small, ambitious and rapidly growing charity.

How to apply

Alongside your CV, please provide a short covering statement addressing the following:

• What attracts you to The Multibank and this opportunity?
• Organisation and coordination: Tell us about a time when you have had to manage multiple moving parts or competing priorities to get something delivered.
• Relationships: Tell us about your experience building and managing relationships with customers, suppliers, partners or other stakeholders.

We expect significant interest in this role and may close the advert early if we receive a strong field of candidates.

Additional details

We believe in flexibility and trust. We’re happy to work with the successful candidate to find a working pattern that works for both them and the organisation. This could include flexibility around when hours are worked, alongside the option to consider a slightly reduced-hours arrangement for the right candidate.

We're a small and growing team, so there will be times when collaboration and availability are important, but we focus on outcomes rather than being prescriptive about when or where work is done.

We also recognise that people don't always meet every requirement listed in a job description. If you're excited about the role and can demonstrate strong organisational, relationship-building and problem-solving skills, we'd encourage you to apply even if your experience doesn't exactly match everything we've described. The role involves occasional UK travel, including to meet supply partners, Multibanks and colleagues.

The Director of Supply & Partnerships is based in the North West, and the ability to travel to Preston / Manchester on occasion is advantageous, particularly during the induction period.

Work where it matters most, achieve what matters more

This is a varied role that combines strategy, project delivery and data-led decision-making. You'll lead projects from concept to implementation, turning complex information into clear recommendations and ensuring initiatives deliver meaningful outcomes.

You'll work closely with senior stakeholders across the organisation, providing challenge, insight and support while helping to improve processes, drive performance and deliver our strategic priorities.

As Nepal’s longest serving international NGO they continue to have ambitious plans. It is an exciting time to join INF as they enter a bold new strategic phase for 2026 to 2031.

The most disadvantaged communities in Nepal face a lack of access to healthcare, often walking for days to their nearest health post, or being unable to afford even basic treatment.

Kopila, who was diagnosed with leprosy several years ago, is a patient at INF’s Green Pastures Hospital in Pokhara, Nepal.

“Whenever I have to come back to Green Pastures I am grateful that all of the treatment is free, and I am happy because everybody there cares for me and loves me.”

We are looking for a Trusts Officer to join their small, passionate team. This is a fantastic opportunity to ensure INF UK’s key supporters feel valued and connected with the charity.

As a faith-based Christian charity, it is a genuine occupational requirement for applicants to have a personal commitment to the Christian faith. See the recruitment pack for more details.

Why INF?

We’re looking for someone who enjoys improving processes and building strong relationships.  You’ll thrive in this role if you’re naturally organised, able to balance attention to detail with multiple moving parts and motivated by delivering an excellent supporter experience.

You’ll be solutions-focused and confident managing priorities, working with data to inform decisions and collaborating across teams to make things happen.

You’ll bring experience of forecasting, stock management and using insight to guide decisions, along with the ability to support, coach or motivate others, whether formally or informally. Ideally, you’ll also have line management experience.

If this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you and see how you could help us make a real difference for our supporters!

Why work with us?
Every man needs to know about the most common cancer in men – prostate cancer. It’s a real and present danger that takes over 12,000 of our dads, grandads, brothers and friends each year.

Prostate Cancer UK is the largest men’s health charity in the UK. We have a simple ambition – to stop prostate cancer damaging lives. We invest millions in research to revolutionise testing, treatment and care. We’re blazing a trail to a screening programme that could save thousands of lives with regular, accurate tests for all men at risk. And we work tirelessly to spread the word about risk and offer specialist support to people living with the disease.

Work with us and you’ll see your efforts pay off as we give men and their families the power to navigate prostate cancer.

Our commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion
At Prostate Cancer UK we’re committed to righting health inequalities across the UK, starting with those faced by Black men. This includes ground-breaking research into Black men's risk and working with communities directly to overcome barriers to the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer. To make this happen, we're dedicated to being an inclusive, proactive organisation, as we strive to be Allies to Black communities. We’ll achieve this by advocating and working alongside those communities to promote change. We're also working to be Allies to each other, not only protected groups. In 2024, we launched our New Allyship Training Programme. All colleagues at Prostate Cancer UK will be trained to act and identify as an Ally.

We've also signed Business in the Communities Race at Work Charter, as a dedication to our Black health equity work and wider EDI priorities. As a signatory, we're responsible and accountable for driving positive change.

How and where we work
Colleagues attend the office at least four days per month (pro rata for part-time colleagues) to collaborate, build relationships, and support projects and decision-making. You can choose where to work the rest of the time. Travel to the office is a commute, so we pay our own travel costs.

Additional in-person attendance will be required during your first few months for induction and training, to support you to learn the role and get to know colleagues.

We trust colleagues to work flexibly while balancing personal commitments with the needs of the charity, and we are committed to making reasonable adjustments for colleagues with a disability, neurodiversity, or a long-term physical or mental health condition.
