Introduction

Emergency Nutrition Network (ENN) is a UK-registered charity dedicated to reducing global malnutrition through knowledge exchange, research, and advocacy. Since its founding, ENN has worked at the forefront of nutrition thought leadership, enabling evidence-based programming and policy development to improve nutrition outcomes in low- and middle-income countries and crisis settings.

We work in close partnership with national governments, UN bodies, NGOs, academic institutions, and funders to strengthen the design and delivery of nutrition interventions. Our areas of expertise include infant and young child feeding in emergencies, the management of wasting and stunting, adolescent nutrition, and maternal and infant care for at-risk groups, including through our MAMI initiative. ENN also publishes Field Exchange, a globally recognised technical publication in humanitarian nutrition.

Our vision is a world where ‘Every individual confronted by malnutrition has access to the knowledge, tools, services and resources they require to meet their needs’.

ENN is governed by a diverse and skilled Board of Trustees, who provide strategic direction and ensure that the organisation operates in line with its charitable objectives and legal obligations. Our trustees play a vital role in upholding ENN’s values: independence, integrity, collaboration, and field-driven insight.

Additional Information About ENN

A Letter from the Board of Trustees

At ENN we are truly passionate about what we do. Over the past 30 years ENN has become a powerful and recognised name in the nutrition sector, working with others to influence outcomes around the world. We produce highly regarded research and publications that inform and inspire practitioners worldwide and we convene technical interest groups and communities of practice who are the ‘go to’ networks for their specialisms. Our partners know and trust ENN for quality, rigour and impartiality.  Our work makes a real difference in the lives of children in some of the most difficult parts of the world. The ENN-led Operational Guidance on Infant Feeding in Emergencies has become the key global policy guidance and has been endorsed by the World Health Assembly, and our technical leadership and convening has facilitated real change in awareness and a new narrative, challenging siloed approaches to Wasting and Stunting management.

Our work has never been more important. Nutritional challenges are growing across the world; undernutrition rates may be slowly decreasing but other forms of malnutrition are on the rise.  The positive progress that is being made is unequal and many countries are now facing the double burden of both under and over nutrition. Crises around the world are increasingly protracted and the historical and artificial silos of ‘humanitarian’ and ‘development’ don’t reflect real needs which are much more fluid. Emerging threats, such as the broader impact on nutrition of the COVID-19 pandemic bring new challenges to address.

At present our annual turnover is around £1.5m, we employ 20+ staff and engage up to a dozen consultants. With our 2024-28 strategy, we are keen to drive even greater impact by exploring new and innovative approaches and increasing our reach further still. We do so with funding in place from a range of institutional partners and private foundations.

As an organisation working across numerous technical areas relevant for countries experiencing high burden of malnutrition, we look to the board, and those trustees with a more technical focus in particular, to discuss new opportunities and challenges to ensure we maintain a responsive and balanced portfolio.  Trustees help us further develop our network, funding and connections, and help us navigate the important work we do to influence structural and impactful change in the sector, including advising in situations where there is potential for strategic risk. We are looking for a Finance professional to join the board, who can bring their knowledge and extensive experience to this role.

We hope the enclosed information helps you to explore ENN and the role.

With best wishes,

The ENN Board of Trustees

Vision

Our vision is:  ‘Every individual confronted by malnutrition has access to the knowledge, tools, services and resources they require to meet their needs’

Our History

Founded in 1996 in Ireland, ENN has a long and rich history in global nutrition.  Following an evaluation of the Great Lakes Emergency in 1995, implementing agencies identified an urgent need to establish a vehicle for capturing programming experiences and preserving institutional memory in the emergency food and nutrition sector. This gave rise to ENN’s publication, Field Exchange, which was first produced in 1996, designed to stimulate critical thinking and learning, influence research agendas and cross-fertilise information and exchange.  ENN was generously hosted by Trinity College Dublin for its first eight years, before relocating to Oxfordshire in 2004 and is now a UK registered Charity.

"To me, ENN is one of the most long-standing focal points for emergency nutrition technical information and coordination." (ENN partner)

Who We Are Now

Our Strategy aims to enhance the effectiveness of nutrition policy and programming by improving knowledge, stimulating learning, building evidence and providing support and encouragement to practitioners and decision-makers involved in nutrition and related interventions.  We take a particular lens on fragile and conflict affected, and high burden, states.  We have three core principles guiding our work:

· Independent, neutral and impartial

ENN is not bound by the views or positions of any one institution and is not a nutrition implementing agency. Any opinions expressed are based on the available evidence and the experience of our rich and diverse network.

· Driven by our network

ENN’s network is made up of practitioners, decision-makers and academics working on nutrition and associated fields all over the world. By supporting their learning and sharing their knowledge, ENN is able to make a unique contribution to turning knowledge into practice.

· Based on experiential learning and evidence

ENN believes that policy and practice can, and should be, informed by evidence and experience. Where this exists, ENN seeks to share the learning from this evidence and experience; where it is missing, ENN advocates for it to be developed or directly supports, and often brokers, its development.

Our People

ENN’s team is made up of a range of technical experts in nutrition, with decades of collective experience, and a small operational team.  ENN’s Management Team comprises of the CEO, 1 (of two) Technical Director, a Finance Manager, the HR Manager,  the Communications and Digital Manager and a Projects Coordinator Lead. As well as our staff, we engage a significant number of experienced specialist consultants on our projects.  ENN is highly committed to diversity and inclusion, to enabling and promoting flexible working for our staff, and to supporting continued professional development.

Our Governance

ENN is a UK-registered charity (Charity Registration Number: 1115156) governed by the Board of Trustees and a set of ‘Articles of Association’. The Board is currently comprised of 8 Trustees and meets regularly throughout the year, with full board meetings on a quarterly basis. The Board currently has three sub-committees: the Governance & People SC, the Technical SC and the Finance sub-committee, which are responsible for ensuring the highest standards in terms of finance, personnel, and technical expertise and application.

As a UK-registered Charity, ENN also files accounts as a UK-registered Company with Companies House (Company Registration Number 04889844).

 Our Finances

ENN is financially supported by a range of institutional donors (including the Irish Government, the EU), charitable foundations (including the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and the Eleanor Crook Foundation), as well as UN agencies and INGOs.

Global Charities Trustee Role Vacancy

Grant-making and Impact measurements specialism

Role Description

INTRODUCTION

Global Charities (operating name Global’s Make Some Noise) is the official charity of Global, the UK and Europe’s largest Radio and Outdoor company.  The Charity brings Global staff and the Global’s amazing brands together to create incredible change for communities right across the UK. 

Since 2014, Make Some Noise (MSN) has raised more than £43 million, changed more than 248,000 lives and additionally reached more than 603,000 people through over 755 projects across the UK​.

We are seeking an experienced, values-driven and analytically strong individual to join our Board of Trustees, with a particular focus on grant-making, impact measurement and an understanding of diverse and marginalised communities.

You will bring rigorous judgement and constructive challenge to Board discussions, helping to ensure our grant-making decisions are robust and evidence-led, and that the charity maximises its impact for beneficiaries across the UK. This is an exceptional opportunity to use your expertise in support of communities facing some of life's toughest challenges.

GLOBAL’S MAKE SOME NOISE

Global’s Make Some Noise utilises the power and reach of Global’s platforms, talent, and client base to raise vital funds and awareness for the charities we support. We also work closely with Global staff 'Globallers’, to tap into their skills and experience, which allows us to build meaningful training and development opportunities for our small charities and maximise the partnership, events and on-air fundraising opportunities.

We align with Global’s proposition of “national brands delivered locally”, so that we are relevant to audiences in terms of both raising money and supporting local projects.  We also align with Global’s culture of Making Everyone’s Day Brighter and work closely across the business to maximise the opportunities under this shared vision.

The Charity works closely with individual radio brands to develop fundraising strategies relevant to their audiences and commercial clients. We continue to focus on growing brand awareness of Global’s Make Some Noise and to innovate our various fundraising streams in order to support small charities that are in need of financial help and align with the Charity’s strategy.

Global’s Make Some Noise actively supports around 100 charities a year, in communities across the UK.  These charities are small (under £1million in revenue) but high in impact, and provide critical help for some of the most vulnerable in our society.

We run 3 programmes to build sustainability in small charities:

· An awareness programme to generate much needed publicity and support

· A grants programme to fund vital services and equipment

· A learning and development programme to help upskill charities

Our mission is to ensure that nobody in the UK is left facing life’s toughest challenges alone.  We deliver that mission through four key pillars :

· Providing shelter and safety; A safe home is essential, yet millions of people don’t live in one.  We work with small charities that exist to support those who have no option but to live on the streets, in temporary accommodation or in unsafe or overcrowded houses. 

· Supporting physical and mental health; We fund crucial services to ensure people can access the support they need to feel well.  This includes funding hospice and care services, mental health helplines, respite support for people with disabilities and their families, and food banks for those living in poverty.

· Improving life skills; We’re supporting programmes that are dedicated to improving people’s life skills and future opportunities.  This includes helping people get the education they need, upskilling them for the future, providing access to wellbeing support, and supporting them into employment.

· Preventing isolation; We recognise how vital it is for people to be connected so we fund crucial projects that prevent isolation.  These include community projects that bring people together to build a sense of belonging, as well providing access to devices that support connections and digital skills training.

Our 2025 fundraising appeal for Global’s Make Some Noise raised a record-breaking £4.8million for communities across the UK.  You can find out more about our impact here: https://cdn.sanity.io/files/lvz0au6x/production/e2f407d31e35d28769be5008efd248bbdb68f44c.pdf

This Role Transforms Words Into Funding for Change. At Tell My Truth and Shame the Devil C.I.C., compelling storytelling and clear proposals unlock the resources we need to grow and sustain our mission.
The Grants and Proposal Writer ensures that the CIC secures funding from trusts, foundations, and grant-making bodies. You will research opportunities, craft persuasive applications, and maintain documentation for reporting and compliance. Your work directly supports programmes, events, and initiatives that impact vulnerable communities.
This is not a generic writing role—it is strategic, high-impact, and central to CIC sustainability.

This role exists to:

• Research and identify grant and funding opportunities aligned with the CIC’s mission
• Develop high-quality proposals, applications, and supporting materials
• Coordinate with the Fundraising Director and other team members to ensure accurate and compelling submissions
• Maintain records of applications, deadlines, and reporting requirements
• Track outcomes, feedback, and lessons learned to improve future proposals
• Ensure compliance with grant conditions, CIC policies, and ethical fundraising standards

You are the storyteller who converts opportunity into actionable support.

Why This Role Matters

Grants and proposals are a critical revenue stream:

• They provide predictable and scalable funding
• They allow the CIC to expand programmes and reach more communities
• They strengthen credibility with partners, donors, and funders

Without this role, potential funding opportunities may be missed or poorly executed. With it, the CIC can secure long-term resources and scale impact ethically.

Experience Qualification and Requirements

Essential / Highly Valued Experience

• Experience in grant writing or proposal development, producing clear, persuasive, and well-evidenced applications
• Ability to research funding opportunities, assess eligibility, and interpret complex funder guidelines

• Ability to translate programme data and outcomes into measurable impact statements
• Experience preparing or contributing to reports and documentation for funders, including outcomes and financial narratives
• Understanding of, or experience within, non-profit, CIC, charity, or social impact sectors
• High attention to detail with strong organisation and deadline-management skills
• Confidence collaborating with diverse internal stakeholders to gather accurate information
• Ability to work independently, manage multiple applications, and prioritise effectively in a volunteer capacity
• Commitment to the organisation’s mission, values, and principles of equity, inclusion, and integrity

Desirable / Can Be Developed

• Awareness of ethical, legal, and compliance considerations, including CIC requirements and data protection
• Proficiency with basic digital tools (e.g. Word, Google Docs, spreadsheets, shared tracking systems)

Qualifications

• Formal qualifications not required; equivalent professional or voluntary experience is highly valued

Main Responsibilities/ Key Duties

• Identify funding opportunities: Proactively source and monitor relevant grant-making organisations, charitable trusts, foundations, statutory bodies, and corporate funders aligned with the organisation’s mission, values, and programmes. Maintain awareness of emerging funding trends and opportunities within the non-profit and social impact landscape.
• Research eligibility and priorities: Analyse funder guidelines, eligibility criteria, strategic priorities, funding cycles, and assessment processes to determine suitability. Provide clear recommendations on which opportunities to pursue and advise on positioning applications for best alignment.
• Write high-quality grant proposals: Develop clear, persuasive, and well-structured grant applications, expressions of interest, and supporting documents. Translate complex programmes and outcomes into compelling narratives supported by evidence, budgets, and measurable impact.
• Collaborate with internal teams: Work closely with programme leads, finance, monitoring and evaluation, and leadership teams to gather accurate data, budgets, case studies, outcomes, and delivery plans. Ensure proposals reflect current activities and realistic capacity.
• Application and deadline management: Maintain an organised and transparent system to track funding opportunities, application stages, deadlines, submission requirements, and reporting obligations. Ensure timely preparation and submission of all materials.
• Compliance and quality assurance: Ensure all grant submissions meet ethical standards, legal requirements, and Community Interest Company (CIC) regulations. Review applications for accuracy, consistency, safeguarding considerations, and data protection compliance before submission.
• Funding tracking and reporting support: Record funding awarded, declined, or pending. Assist with donor acknowledgement, progress updates, and end-of-grant reports by collating outcomes, financial information, and impact evidence in line with funder requirements.
• Continuous improvement: Reflect on feedback from funders, analyse success rates, and contribute to improving grant-writing processes, templates, and organisational funding strategy over time.

Who This Role Is For

This role is suited to someone who:

• Can write persuasively and strategically
• Understands grant-making processes or is willing to learn
• Is organised, deadline-driven, and detail-oriented
• Can translate programme impact into compelling narratives
• Values ethics, transparency, and trauma-informed storytelling

You are a strategic writer and funding advocate

What You Gain

• Founding-level experience in grant writing and fundraising strategy
• Strategic insight into funding cycles, donor expectations, and impact storytelling
• Leadership exposure in shaping sustainable funding models
• Priority consideration for future paid roles
• Direct contribution to community empowerment and CIC growth

This role builds strategic writing, research, and funding acquisition skills.

What This Role Is Not For

This role is not suitable if you:

• Avoid strategic or detailed writing tasks
• Prefer low-responsibility volunteer work
• Are seeking immediate paid employment
• Are uncomfortable representing an ethical, trauma-informed organisation

Important to Be Clear

• This is a volunteer role during the CIC’s build phase
• It carries real responsibility for securing ethical funding
•  Paid roles will emerge as funding and sustainability allow

Next Steps

Shortlisted applicants will be invited to:

• A values-led conversation
• A practical discussion about grant writing, deadlines, and proposal strategy

If you believe that well-crafted proposals can fuel meaningful change, and that writing can create impact beyond words, this role is for you.

A Final Word

Grants are about people, not just funding.
If you know that:

• Trust is built through honesty, clarity, and accuracy
• Ethical compliance and data protection safeguard both funders and communities
• Respectful storytelling strengthens long-term partnerships and impact

…then you already understand the heart of effective grants and proposal writing.

• After completion of a three-month trial, if you commit long-term, a small monthly expenses refund

In certain periods of the year, demand is extremely high, and the shared houses might be full. If you have the means to pay for your own accommodation, please let us know. We would still be happy to host you if space is available. However, in a situation where the shared houses are full, this would allow us to offer an opportunity to someone that cannot afford to pay rent.

Looking for an internship?

If, because of your degree or for any other reason, you would like to have your period at Second Tree credited as an internship, just apply to the vacancy that you’re interested in and mention this.
