• Produce brand guidelines that reflect our uplifting, empowering mission

• Create templates for social media, presentations, documents and marketing materials

• Ensure our visual identity feels positive, inclusive and motivating

• Help shape how the world sees and understands our charity

Your work will become the visual foundation of a charity designed to transform lives.

This role offers creativity, purpose and portfolio‑building opportunities.

You’ll gain:

• Experience shaping the brand identity of a new charity

• A strong portfolio piece with real‑world social impact

• Creative freedom to build something meaningful from scratch

• A close working relationship with the Founder and leadership team

• The fulfilment of knowing your work inspires and uplifts people across London

This is the kind of project that stands out — and makes a difference.

Who You Are

You’re someone who:

• Loves creating positive, uplifting and meaningful design

• Has experience in graphic design, branding or visual identity

• Enjoys turning ideas into clear, beautiful visual systems

• Wants to use your creativity for social good

• Believes in equality, opportunity and empowering others

You don’t need decades of experience — just talent, passion and a desire to create impact.

Your Impact

Your design work will help:

• Inspire adults to believe in their potential

• Attract volunteers who want to make a difference

• Build trust with partners, funders and communities

Join 130 Primrose as a Strategic Finance Trustee. Help an exciting team guide our forecasting, cashflow and scaling plans for a mission where every plate creates a fresh start.

We’re seeking a Trustee with strategic finance (CFO-level) expertise to strengthen our board as we grow and to help us scale our mission to bring economic opportunites to those impacted by homelessness. 

You’ll bring commercial acumen to our mission—helping us plan sustainably, understand our unit economics, and scale responsibly—without being “the accountant.” Our operations are hospitality-led, so experience in catering, hospitality, or multi-site venues is helpful (not essential).

About 130 Primrose

130 Primrose is a charity restaurant in Primrose Hill, formerly Home Kitchen Diner. We recruit, train, and employ people with lived experience of homelessness, offering real jobs, and accredited qualifications in hospitality. We’re scaling impact through great food, fair work, and fresh starts. 

What you’ll do

· Support the Board and Chair with financial strategy, planning, and risk management.

· Challenge and refine our financial model, forecasting, and cashflow planning (12–36 months).

· Help shape P&L, balance sheet and cash visibility that operators can use day-to-day.

· Advise on site-level unit economics, menu margin mix, labour model, and cost control.

· Strengthen budgeting, KPI dashboards, and scenario modelling for growth (e.g., second site in Brighton).

· Support funding strategy: grants, philanthropy, corporate partnerships, social investment.

· Create a Finance & Risk Committee (chair if appropriate).

· Ensure robust governance, internal controls, and compliance with charity and company law.

· Act as a critical friend—asking the right questions, mentoring our leadership and on site General Manager and team, and championing our mission.

We’re not looking for

· A bookkeeper or day-to-day accountant. We want a strategic finance leader who can translate numbers into decisions and coach an operations-minded team.

This is an opportunity to lead the protection of the vital footpaths and rights of way network across the countryside of West Sussex and ensure walking in the natural environment is accessible to everyone.

You will coordinate a team of Local Footpath Wardens and will be responsible for assessing proposals affecting paths and for developing Ramblers' response to and comments on those proposals, liaising with Ramblers' Central Office and other stakeholders as necessary.

You will represent Ramblers' Sussex Area on rights of way issues with the local authorities and at meetings and public events.

To undertake the role you will need to keep up to date with legal and policy information about paths and planning issues nationally as well as in your local area.

The skills required for the role are to be confident but diplomatic; able to understand complex rights of way and legal issues; be friendly and personable with the ability to influence; and good at presenting arguments in writing and in person.

The role will offer you the opportunity to use your existing networking skills; to develop new skills and knowledge in relation to rights of way issues; and to work with a group of fellow volunteers to influence local policy.
