Job description
What we do
Respair Therapy C.I.C. began in 2023 with a simple belief: dance belongs to everybody, and every body. Like many of the people we work with, Respair does not fit neatly into one box. Our work exists on a spectrum, from the gloriously frivolous to the deeply serious.
At one end, we hire out silent disco equipment so that people can turn their living room, kitchen or garden into a dancefloor. We create joyful events where people can put on a pair of headphones, choose their music and dance together without worrying about what they look like. Income from silent disco hire goes back into Respair, so a party in someone’s garden can help another person access psychological support.
At the other end is Dance Movement Psychotherapy, or DMP. This is not a dance class or an informal wellbeing activity. It is a recognised form of psychotherapy in which movement, the body and the relationship between client and therapist are central to the clinical work.
In the UK, Dance Movement Psychotherapists complete postgraduate training at Master’s degree level, including clinical placements, personal therapy, supervised practice and academic research. Qualified practitioners register with the Association for Dance Movement Psychotherapy UK and work to professional and ethical standards. DMP is used within NHS services, as well as in schools, mental health services, social care, charities and private practice. It is serious clinical work that can support people experiencing trauma, abuse, anxiety, depression, loss, relationship difficulties and other forms of psychological distress.
Between these two ends are projects such as Babe Club, our silent disco for parents, carers and babies; therapeutic movement in schools; and work with neurodivergent people, adults with learning disabilities and people living with dementia.
Our work is inclusive, trauma informed and anti oppressive. Whether we are helping somebody throw a brilliant party or supporting a person through specialist psychotherapy, we are creating more opportunities for people of different ages, backgrounds and abilities to experience movement, connection and psychological support.
How do we what we do
Respair is run by a Founding Director and team of Supporting Directors who volunteer their time. The Founding Director is also the Lead Psychotherapist and Facilitator. We meet quarterly to discuss the finance, legal and compliance aspects of the work. We have an accountant and a book keeper and we use Quickbooks to keep everything in one place. We apply for funding from local and national funding bodies. We have been successful in securing over £24,000 in restricted funds, and we have plans to apply for more.
What we need
Respair is a creative and responsive organisation, so new ideas and opportunities can appear quickly. We need a Finance Director who can help us pause, understand the numbers and decide what is realistic.
The right person will be financially experienced, practical and approachable. They will look beyond whether the figures add up to help us understand what they mean, ask difficult questions and give clear advice.
Essential skills and qualities
The successful candidate will:
- Have substantial experience using QuickBooks.
- Have experience working with a charity, Community Interest Company, social enterprise or other small mission driven organisation.
- Understand restricted grants, funder budgets and financial reporting.
- Be able to prepare and interpret annual budgets, project budgets, cash flow forecasts and management accounts.
- Compare actual income and expenditure against agreed budgets, identify significant differences and recommend action.
- Assess the financial impact of new projects, contracts, staffing decisions and significant purchases.
- Develop proportionate financial policies and controls, including reserves policies and spending limits.
- Read annual accounts and ask sensible questions before they are approved.
- Explain financial information clearly to people without a finance background.
- Give honest, independent advice and offer thoughtful challenge, including when the Managing Director or Board may have hoped for a different answer.
- Be trustworthy, reliable and able to handle sensitive information confidentially.
- Support Respair’s commitment to inclusion, fairness and accessible mental health support.
The Finance Director will work closely with Debbie, our Founding Director, so a warm, straightforward and respectful working relationship will be important.
Desirable skills and qualities
It would be helpful if the candidate also has:
- A recognised finance qualification, such as ACA, ACCA, CIMA or AAT.
- Previous experience as a finance director, treasurer or board member.
- Knowledge of payroll, PAYE, pensions, Corporation Tax and Companies House reporting.
- Experience working constructively with bookkeepers and external accountants.
- An interest in mental health, therapy, community work or the creative arts.
We do not expect one person to know every answer. We do expect them to recognise the limits of their knowledge, ask questions and seek specialist advice when needed. A sense of humour and an understanding of the slightly unpredictable nature of a small, growing organisation would also be very welcome.

Job description
About The Pinnacle Centre
The Pinnacle Centre is a third space in Birmingham helping young adults grow holistically. We work across three domains: personal development, sports and wellbeing, and community and belonging.
Vision 2030 is where that work is heading. We're building a multi-purpose centre in Birmingham — sports facilities, co-working space, an auditorium and a café — designed as a home for young adults to train, work, learn and gather.
Role Summary
You own how money comes into Pinnacle. Grants, corporate sponsorship, community giving and donor relationships all sit with you, and your job is to make them add up to an income that is diversified enough to survive one of them failing — while laying the groundwork for the campaign that funds Vision 2030. Finance manages what we spend; you determine what there is to spend.
Key tasks
1. Strategy & pipeline
○ Own the annual fundraising plan with clear targets by income stream, agreed with the CFO.
○ Maintain a live pipeline of funders, sponsors and donors with deadlines, values and likelihood.
○ Balance the portfolio so that no single funder or channel is a point of failure.
○ Sequence effort towards the Vision 2030 capital requirement rather than only this year's costs.
2. Community & digital giving
○ Design and run giving campaigns, including seasonal appeals and sponsored challenges.
○ Own our giving platforms, donation pages and Gift Aid processing.
○ Build a regular giving programme and reduce lapse rates through timely, human communication.
○ Set the ask and the case; work with Marketing, who own the channels and audience.
3. Donor care, compliance & reporting
○ Ensure every donation is acknowledged promptly and that donors hear what their money changed.
○ Maintain an accurate donor record with consent and preferences, compliant with GDPR.
○ Ensure all fundraising meets Fundraising Regulator standards.
○ Report income against target to the CFO monthly, with an honest read on the pipeline.
What we're looking for
● A track record of raising money —community fundraising or High net worth.
● Excellent written English; you can make a case that persuades a stranger to fund it.
● Comfortable with targets, pipelines and being measured against them.
● You understand the difference between an ask and a relationship, and know when each is appropriate.
● Organised enough to run several income streams without dropping the reporting on any of them.
● Experience of a capital appeal or major campaign (desirable).
What we have to offer
● Real ownership of a function, not a task list — you will shape how it works, not just execute someone else's plan.
● A seat in a team building towards a 2030 horizon, with a clear line of sight to the leadership team.
● Access to our network of founders, professionals, entrepreneurs and investors through Pinnacle's events programme.
● Training, mentoring and the opportunity to build and lead a team of your own as the organisation grows.
● The reward of building something in your city that will outlast all of us.
Please note: this is currently a volunteer position. Reasonable expenses for travel, equipment and refreshments are reimbursed in line with our Expenses Policy. As Pinnacle grows and funding allows, we expect several senior roles to move to paid positions, and volunteers already in post will be considered first.

About The Pinnacle Centre
The Pinnacle Centre is a third space in Birmingham helping young adults grow holistically. We work across three domains: personal development, sports and wellbeing, and community and belonging.
Vision 2030 is where that work is heading. We're building a multi-purpose centre in Birmingham — sports facilities, co-working space, an auditorium and a café — designed as a home for young adults to train, work, learn and gather.
Role Summary
You bring in corporate support — sponsorship, charity-of-the-year partnerships, in-kind giving and employee fundraising. You build relationships where the business genuinely gets something back.
Key tasks
1. Prospecting
○ Identify businesses whose interests align with Pinnacle's work and audience.
○ Research decision-makers and the best route in.
○ Maintain a prospect pipeline with clear ownership so approaches never collide with other teams.
2. Proposition & pitch
○ Build sponsorship packages with clearly defined deliverables and honest value.
○ Pitch to businesses and negotiate terms.
○ Agree everything in writing before delivery begins.
3. Delivery & stewardship
○ Deliver what was promised: visibility, access, engagement and reporting.
○ Provide sponsors with evidence of impact and reach.
○ Renew partnerships before they lapse rather than after.
4. Coordination
○ Coordinate with the Partnerships Lead so one organisation has one relationship with us.
○ Work with Events on sponsor presence and experience on the night.
○ Report income and pipeline to the CFO.
What we're looking for
● Sales, business development or sponsorship experience.
● Confident with senior business contacts and comfortable making the first approach.
● Commercially minded — you can structure something where both sides win.
● Strong follow-through; the role is mostly what happens after the pitch.
● Knowledge of the Birmingham business network (desirable).
What we have to offer
● Real ownership of a function, not a task list — you will shape how it works, not just execute someone else's plan.
● A seat in a team building towards a 2030 horizon, with a clear line of sight to the leadership team.
● Access to our network of founders, professionals, entrepreneurs and investors through Pinnacle's events programme.
● Training, mentoring and the opportunity to build and lead a team of your own as the organisation grows.
● The reward of building something in your city that will outlast all of us.

Vision 2030 is where that work is heading. We're building a multi-purpose centre in Birmingham — sports facilities, co-working space, an auditorium and a café — designed as a home for young adults to train, work, learn and gather.
Role Summary
You own grant income. You find the funders worth applying to, write applications that win, and meet the reporting obligations that make funders willing to fund us again.
Key tasks
1. Research & pipeline
○ Research trusts, foundations and statutory funders whose priorities genuinely match our work.
○ Maintain a pipeline with deadlines, values and likelihood.
○ Recommend which opportunities to pursue and which to decline.
2. Applications
○ Write applications, working with Programmes for evidence and Finance for budgets.
○ Tailor each application rather than recycling the same text.
○ Manage submission deadlines so that nothing is missed.
3. Reporting & relationships
○ Deliver monitoring reports on time and to the funder's specification.
○ Track restricted spend against grant conditions with Finance.
○ Build relationships with funders that go beyond the application form.
4. Records & learning
○ Maintain accurate records of applications, outcomes and feedback.
○ Learn from unsuccessful bids and share what you learn.
○ Report progress against target to the CFO.
What we're looking for
● Grant writing experience with a success rate you can describe.
● Excellent written English and the discipline to follow a specification exactly.
● Comfortable interpreting funder criteria and reading between the lines.
● Deadline-driven and well organised.
● Knowledge of the UK grant landscape (desirable).
What we have to offer
● Real ownership of a function, not a task list — you will shape how it works, not just execute someone else's plan.
● A seat in a team building towards a 2030 horizon, with a clear line of sight to the leadership team.

Job description
About The Pinnacle Centre
The Pinnacle Centre is a third space in Birmingham helping young adults grow holistically. We work across three domains: personal development, sports and wellbeing, and community and belonging.
Vision 2030 is where that work is heading. We're building a multi-purpose centre in Birmingham — sports facilities, co-working space, an auditorium and a café — designed as a home for young adults to train, work, learn and gather.
Role Summary
You own how Pinnacle sounds. Every word that goes out under our name — website, emails, WhatsApp, programme materials, funding applications — either comes from you or meets a standard you've set. You make sure we read like one organisation rather than fifteen people with fifteen styles, and that the way we describe our work holds up in front of a funder as well as in front of a 24-year-old deciding whether to come on Friday.
Key tasks
- Voice and standards
- Define Pinnacle's tone of voice and make it usable by other people — a short, practical guide, not a brand bible nobody opens.
- Write or review the copy that carries weight: website pages, campaign emails, WhatsApp broadcasts, programme descriptions, sign-up flows.
- Keep language consistent across every channel, including the ones you don't publish on yourself.
- Owned channels
- Own website, email and WhatsApp as channels we control outright.
- Keep the mailing list clean, segmented and GDPR compliant.
- Make sure nobody who contacts Pinnacle goes unanswered.
- Vision-aligned and funder-ready language
- Translate what we actually do into language funders, partners and institutions recognise — personal development, sports and wellbeing, community and belonging.
- Maintain an approved set of core descriptions: boilerplate, programme summaries, impact statements — so bids and partnership decks aren't rewritten from scratch each time.
- Work with the CFO on funding applications and with Partnerships on how we come across externally.
- Performance
- Track open rates, click-throughs, response times and list growth.
- Report monthly with insight rather than screenshots.
What we're looking for
- A strong writer first, a marketer second.
- Able to write for two audiences at once: young adults who need to feel something, and funders who need to see rigour.
- Comfortable editing other people's work and holding a standard without being precious about it.
- Email marketing experience and a working understanding of GDPR.
- Grant, bid or case-for-support writing experience (desirable).
What we have to offer
● Real ownership of a function, not a task list — you will shape how it works, not just execute someone else's plan.
● A seat in a team building towards a 2030 horizon, with a clear line of sight to the leadership team.
● Access to our network of founders, professionals, entrepreneurs and investors through Pinnacle's events programme.
● Training, mentoring and the opportunity to build and lead a team of your own as the organisation grows.
● The reward of building something in your city that will outlast all of us.
Please note: this is currently a volunteer position. Reasonable expenses for travel, equipment and refreshments are reimbursed in line with our Expenses Policy. As Pinnacle grows and funding allows, we expect several senior roles to move to paid positions, and volunteers already in post will be considered first.
