Youth children jobs

A little bit about the role 

The trusts fundraiser role sits in the fundraising team within the external relations division. The fundraising team is responsible for raising between £1m and £1.5m in fundraised income annually. Frontline’s philanthropic income complements the significant contract income the charity receives from central and local government and enables the charity to carry out its broader mission to create social change for hundreds of thousands of disadvantaged children.

Since we were founded in 2013, Frontline has leveraged its success to build committed, high impact partnerships with a number of prestigious supporters including trusts and foundations, corporates and high net worth individuals. Our new fundraising strategy focuses on continuing to grow our network of supporters by maintaining excellent relationships with our current funders while identifying new potential donors, and at the same time testing and developing fundraising through community and events and individual giving.

We are now looking for a trusts fundraiser to help drive this strategy forward. The successful candidate will have experience in building relationships and securing income, helping us to build relationships with new trust funders while stewarding effectively our current trust and foundation relationships.

The successful candidate will work closely with the head of fundraising and the fundraising manager to implement Frontline’s annual fundraising plan, taking specific responsibility for researching, building relationships with, writing persuasive proposals to and securing income from new trust and foundation funders, while also providing excellent stewardship and reporting to current funders. The fundraising team is supported by the marketing, events and communications staff of the external relations division.

Some key responsibilities include:

• To develop a pipeline of potential trust funders through prospect research, the development of strong relationships, and writing of persuasive, creative and inspiring applications. 
• To arrange meetings and engagement opportunities with new funders, including ensuring that other Frontline staff are involved in supporting applications and pitches where appropriate. 
• To account manage a portfolio of existing trust supporters, providing excellent stewardship and planning and writing high quality grant and funding reports in line with reporting deadlines. 
• To work closely with other teams at Frontline, particularly the fellowship team and evaluation team, to develop proposals and reports, bring funders closer to our work and help inspire a culture of fundraising across the charity.

A little bit about you 

You will be an experienced fundraiser, with experience in securing grants from trusts and foundations in particular. The ideal candidate will be enthusiastic, target-driven and passionate about delivering persuasive cases for support through crafting creative and imaginative funding proposals.

We have a fast-moving culture within the team and organisation, so we’re looking for someone who is who is well organised, details-focused and can use their initiative to do what works. You will have excellent communication skills, be able to build relationships with people and be willing to learn. There are lots of opportunities for growth and development in this role – and for the right candidate to make the role their own. 

If you feel you have the skills to make a real impact and contribute to creating lasting social change for children and families, we would love to hear from you. 

Important information

We have increased the diversity of Frontline’s workforce in the last 12 months, but we need to do more to have greater racialised minority representation in our senior roles. We know the value racialised minority voices bring and therefore, we are strongly encouraging applicants from these backgrounds to apply. We are also a disability confident employer and welcome applicants with disabilities.

We recognise that artificial intelligence (AI) such as ‘ChatGPT’ etc can be useful for applicants e.g. to shorten an initial draft, so we do not attempt to have an absolute ban on AI in applications. However we would caution applicants not to rely too much on AI in drafting answers to application questions. We want to hear your authentic voice arising out of your experience, and we will be looking for answers that use examples and experiences that are specific to you. You are more likely to be able to produce that kind of content yourself than an AI will.

We reserve the right to close this role ahead of the deadline once we reach a suitable number of applications, so please apply as soon as you can!

Taking referrals from GP practices, you’ll work with adult mental health patients to identify what is affecting their health and wellbeing.

The position is based in Sheppey and applicants must have experience of working with adults in a medical or social care setting, and of providing mental health support.

Ymarferwr Gwasanaeth Iechyd a Lles Emosiynol - Wrecsam

Cyflog: £26,100 35 oriau lleoliad Wrecsam

Byddwch yn gweithio gartref tra bod y safle darparu yn cael ei ddiogelu

Ydych chi'n angerddol am gymorth cynnar, cymorth iechyd a lles emosiynol i blant?

Rydym yn chwilio am ymarferydd profiadol a dynamig sy'n rhannu uchelgeisiau a gwerthoedd Cymdeithas y Plant, ein partneriaid, a BBC Plant Mewn Angen i weithio'n uniongyrchol gyda phlant 8-13 oed a'u teuluoedd lle bo hynny'n briodol. Rydym yn chwilio am rywun sydd â sgiliau perthynol rhagorol ac sy'n gyfarwydd â ffyrdd o ymgysylltu â phlant iau a'u teuluoedd yn benodol mewn perthynas â gwella iechyd a lles emosiynol plant.

Mae'r cyllid yn mynd i greu rhaglen cymorth cynnar a fydd yn cefnogi plant 8 - 13 oed ledled Cymru, Lloegr, Gogledd Iwerddon a'r Alban gyda ffocws cryf ar y plant a'r teuluoedd hynny nad ydynt yn cael eu cynrychioli mewn gwasanaethau iechyd a lles emosiynol ac iechyd meddwl. Ein huchelgais yw cefnogi plant a'u teuluoedd cyn gynted â phosibl i helpu i atal plant rhag datblygu a phrofi ac anawsterau iechyd meddwl wrth iddynt gyrraedd eu harddegau.

Bydd y rhaglen yn cynnig ymyriadau lles un-i-un sy'n gyfyngedig o ran amser i blant a'u teuluoedd. Byddwn yn defnyddio dulliau sy'n canolbwyntio ar atebion i ddarparu blwch cymorth o strategaethau i blant a'u teuluoedd i helpu i gefnogi iechyd a lles emosiynol y plant a rheoli eu teimladau. Bydd y gwaith uniongyrchol gyda phlant a theuluoedd yn cael ei gefnogi gan ymyriadau digidol, trwy ddefnyddio ein ap lles ein hunain "Me Time”.

Bydd y rôl yn gyfrifol am gynnal llwyth achos y cytunir arno o blant sy'n cael trafferth gyda'u hiechyd a'u lles emosiynol, gan weithio ochr yn ochr ag asiantaethau eraill i gyflawni'r canlyniadau gorau posibl a chofnodi'r effaith rydych chi wedi llwyddo i'w chael ar fywydau plant. Byddwch yn defnyddio cynnig digidol Cymdeithas y Plant fel rhan o'r rhaglen hon hefyd.

Rydym yn ystyried bod amrywiaeth a chynhwysiant yn hanfodol i gyflawni newid cymdeithasol. Er mwyn mynd i'r afael â'r materion cymhleth sy'n wynebu plant, mae angen mynediad at dalent, safbwyntiau, profiadau ac arferion gwaith amrywiol. Anogir ceisiadau o gefndiroedd a chymunedau amrywiol ac mae gennym bolisïau i gefnogi cyflogaeth hyblyg, gynhwysol a hygyrch.

Mae'r gallu i siarad Cymraeg yn dymunol

Mae oriau agor gwasanaethau Iechyd a Lles Emosiynol yn cefnogi anghenion y cymunedau yr ydym yn gweithio ynddynt, ac felly mae yna elfennau o oriau anghymdeithasol - gall hyn gynnwys gyda'r nos, penwythnosau, a gwyliau banc.

Buddion: 28 diwrnod o wyliau y flwyddyn pro-rata (yn ogystal â gwyliau banc), polisïau sy'n ystyriol o deuluoedd, Cynllun beicio i'r gwaith, Pensiwn - cyfraniadau gweithwyr o hyd at 8%, Buddion marwolaeth mewn gwasanaeth, Cynllun iechyd gostyngol, gwasanaeth cwnsela cyfrinachol am ddim (mae rhagor o fanylion am fuddion yn y pecyn swydd).

Y dyddiad cau ar gyfer ceisiadau yw hanner nos ar 04/05/2025. Os byddwn wedi derbyn digon o geisiadau ar ôl 14 diwrnod, efallai y byddwn yn cau'r swydd wag hon o 28/04/24 ymlaen.

Wrexham - Dyddiad Dros Dro Cyfweliad 09/05/25 neu 12/05/25

Mae Cymdeithas y Plant wedi ymrwymo i ddiogelu ac amddiffyn y plant a'r bobl ifanc rydym yn gweithio gyda nhw. O'r herwydd, mae pob swydd yn destun proses recriwtio fwy diogel, gan gynnwys datgelu cofnodion troseddol a gwiriadau fetio. Rydym yn sicrhau bod gennym gasgliad o bolisïau a gweithdrefnau ar waith sy'n hyrwyddo arferion gwaith diogelu a mwy diogel ar draws ein gwasanaethau.

Felly, bydd gofyn i ymgeiswyr sy'n gwneud cais am waith yn ein Parth Effaith Ieuenctid gwblhau cyfrif o'u hanes gwaith llawn.
