This year, we’re building and migrating to a new grants database and you’ll play an integral role on the project team. In addition, you’ll manage an assigned portfolio of grants, and help with all aspects of the funding cycle. You’ll support applicants and funded partners, make funding recommendations, administer grants, provide feedback and support, and visit projects.
About You
First and foremost, you’ll be passionate about the work that Youth Music does. As a skilled administrator, you’re not fazed by planning, monitoring, reporting, and spreadsheets. You have an eye for detail. You’ve got good IT skills and working knowledge of how databases operate. With the development of our new database this is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys developing processes and working with data and detail.
You’re a collaborative worker who enjoys being part of a friendly team, as well as travelling on your own to build new relationships with a diverse range of people. As a grants manager you’ll have an instinct for what’s important – when to give advice, and when to step back.

- Ensure data in the grants database is accurate and up-to-date, and support with data input, analysis and cleansing.
- Review grant requirements and ensure quick processing of payments.
- Undertake visits to funded projects and attend events.
- Provide advice and feedback to successful and unsuccessful applicants.
- Support the running and facilitation of events.
- Contribute to the improvement of Youth Music’s funding processes and procedures in line with the flexible funding principles we’re committed to.
- Provide support to others in the wider Youth Music team.
Learning and Projects
- Undertake project-based tasks as part of wider team or organisational project work.
- Specialist knowledge about assigned areas of Youth Music’s work or operations and produce relevant outputs to help us and others to learn and develop.
- Produce resources and content for the Youth Music community.
- Present information and learning to internal and external colleagues.
General
- Carry out all such additional duties as are reasonably commensurate with the role.
- This post will require travel across the UK, occasionally involving overnight stays.
- This job description is not necessarily an exhaustive list of duties but is intended to reflect a range of duties the post-holder will perform.
Person Specification
Essential Criteria
- Experience of working or volunteering in music education, music industries, grants management, youth work or advocacy, education, or not-for-profit settings.
- Familiarity with the funding process.
- Experience of working in an administrative role.
- Experience using databases and other software.
- Proficient IT skills, including Microsoft Teams and Office (in particular Outlook, Excel and Word).
