In this role, you’ll build relationships with employers, public sector organisations and community groups to recruit volunteers from a wide range of industries.

For 50 years, SportsAid has been backing the next generation of athletes.
But we're only just getting started.
As we launch our new organisational strategy and celebrate our 50th anniversary, we're entering an exciting new chapter—one that will see us grow our impact, strengthen lifelong relationships with athletes and supporters, and build one of the UK's most engaged sporting communities.
We're looking for an ambitious and experienced fundraising leader to help make that happen.
Our Vision
From potential to personal best – whatever your story.
We want a future where talented athletes can pursue their ambitions, whatever their background, circumstances or income.
A future where talent is not lost because life gets in the way, and where support comes early, consistently and without conditions.
Our Mission
SportsAid exists to champion and support the next generation of athletes to fulfil their potential in sport and in life.
We invest early. We back ambition. We bring together partners, supporters and alumni to provide financial help, trusted guidance and belief—particularly at the moments when staying in sport becomes hardest.
For five decades, we have stood alongside athletes when success was uncertain and outcomes were unknown. Today, our ambition goes further.
We believe talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not. That's why we're strengthening support for athletes and families, amplifying athlete voices, building lifelong communities of athletes and alumni, and working with partners to create a sporting system where potential—not background—shapes opportunity.
The Opportunity
This is far more than a community fundraising role.
You'll lead the development of SportsAid's Community Fundraising & Engagement programme at a pivotal moment in our history, helping shape the future of one of the UK's most respected sports charities.
Working closely with the Head of Fundraising and Communications and as part of an ambitious leadership team, you'll develop and deliver a bold community fundraising strategy, grow sustainable unrestricted income and create outstanding supporter experiences that inspire people to back the next generation.
You'll also provide strategic leadership for our growing alumni engagement programme, ensuring former SportsAid athletes remain connected through mentoring, advocacy, storytelling, volunteering and fundraising.
Whether it's launching new fundraising products, growing challenge events, building partnerships with schools, clubs and communities, or developing innovative supporter journeys, you'll have the freedom to build something with lasting impact.
About You
You're someone who enjoys creating as much as delivering.
You combine strategic thinking with a practical, hands-on approach and know that exceptional fundraising is built on exceptional relationships.
You may currently be leading community fundraising, supporter engagement or individual giving within a charity and be looking for the opportunity to shape a programme with genuine national potential.
You'll bring:
· Significant experience developing successful community fundraising or supporter engagement programmes.
· A track record of growing sustainable income and building long-term supporter relationships.
· Experience leading people, developing strategy and delivering results.
· Strong commercial awareness and an entrepreneurial mindset.
· Excellent relationship-building, influencing and communication skills.
· A passion for creating outstanding supporter experiences.
Most importantly, you'll be excited by the opportunity to build, innovate and help shape the future of SportsAid.
Why Join SportsAid?
There has never been a more exciting time to join us.
As we celebrate our 50th anniversary, we're investing in ambitious plans to expand our fundraising, strengthen lifelong relationships with athletes and supporters, and increase our impact across the UK.
You'll join an ambitious, collaborative and values-led organisation with an engaged Board, a supportive leadership team and colleagues who genuinely care about our mission.
We offer:
· Salary of £50,000–£55,000 (pro rata if 0.8 FTE)
· Home-based or hybrid working
· Flexible working arrangements
· Private healthcare
· Pension contribution
· Cycle to Work Scheme
· Season ticket loan
· 25 days' annual leave plus Bank Holidays, increasing with service
· Excellent opportunities for professional development

About the Role
As we journey towards our vision to bring fullness of life for every child, no matter what struggles they face, we’re looking for a passionate, motivated and mission-driven individual to join our team as Finance Manager.
The Finance Manager will play a central role in shaping the financial strength and future growth of the charity.

Whilst the responsibilities and feel of the role will be familiar to someone with a career in charity finance, the close work with TLG’s commercial subsidiaries, the opportunity to speak strategically in the future of the charity, the focus on career development and the environment of grace and faith encompassing TLG make this role an attractive proposition for anyone who wants to make a difference for Jesus within the finance sector.
About You
You will be a fully or nearly Qualified Accountant who wants to grow in a finance career with an organisation committed to seeing you flourish. You can work well within a high‑performing finance function, bringing strong charity finance experience, excellent technical skills, and the ability to communicate clearly across the organisation, including with department heads throughout the team. You’ll balance strategic oversight with hands‑on delivery of management accounts, budgeting and reporting. Alongside this, you’ll bring an active Christian faith, playing a full part in the spiritual life of the organisation and working sensitively with people of all backgrounds.
