Are you a talented Fundraising leader who believes every young person deserves the chance to reach their potential? As Head of Fundraising and Communications, you'll shape meaningful opportunities for donors and partners to play an active role in this organisation - now and into the future. You'll help shape a fundraising approach that deeply connects with funders and captures their imagination, as well as developing a sector-leading approach to stewardship that keeps them engaged for the long-term. Salary: £60,000 per annum Location: Hybrid, ideally minimum 3 days on site in Harpurhey Benefits: 5% employer pension; 33 days annual leave including bank + birthday day; free gym access; access to their national Talent Academy; bespoke training and mentoring About the charity: This centre is a unique and ambitious charity that punches above its weight. Part of the national network and deeply rooted in North Manchester's Harpurhey community, this centre serves one of the poorest wards in England with 94% of its youth members coming from the highest indices on the national poverty index scale. We need you to lead a refreshed and reimagined Fundraising team, to deliver for these young people. About the opportunity This is a unique Head of Fundraising role, with the chance to live and breathe the impact of your fundraising. It would suit an ambitious fundraising leader who wants to work collaboratively and with autonomy. There's a unique duality to this role. On the one hand, it is absolutely strategic, working closely with the CEO and Board and taking ownership of a new fundraising strategy. But, it's also essential to have a willingness to roll your sleeves up and get stuck, working hands-on with high-value partners, philanthropists and corporates. You'll hold relationships with the charity's largest donors and be keen to offer them brilliant stewardship and support. About you We're looking for a fundraising leader who delivers big impact and leads from the heart. Someone who inspires others to thrive, as well as being equally driven and motivated to achieve exceptional personal results. When you apply, we'd love to see you to clearly demonstrate: Strong track-record of fundraising success, consistently delivering against financial targets and growing unrestricted income. Personal experience of securing six-figure gifts, whether through major donors or corporate partnerships. Ability to think and act strategically across multiple income streams, alongside a willingness to stay close to the detail and lead from the front. Generous, compassionate approach to leadership that brings out the very best in others. Creativity and openness - someone who embraces change and is energised by finding solutions. Genuine understanding of the challenges facing young people and underserved communities, alongside a clear commitment to championing equity, diversity and inclusion. This centre operates in a vibrant and diverse community, so we would especially welcome and encourage applications from individuals from global majority backgrounds. If you are as excited by this unique opportunity as we are, you'll want to get in touch for further details on how to make your formal application. To apply, please send a copy of your profile or CV in the first instance to Amelia Lee at Charity People. Deadline: 9am on Thursday 28th May Charity People is a forward thinking, inclusive organisation that actively and deliberately promotes equity, diversity and inclusion. We know organisations thrive when inclusion is at the forefront. We evidence our commitment by matching charity needs with the skills and experience of candidates irrespective of background e.g. age, disability (including hidden disabilities), gender, gender identity or gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, or sexual orientation. We do this because we believe that greater diversity leads to greater results for the charities we work with.

Come play a key role at a moment of renewal and ambition, as we strengthen how we connect people, ideas and influence across the humanities and social sciences. About the Academy The British Academy is the UK's national body for the humanities and social sciences, established by Royal Charter in 1902. We mobilise these disciplines to understand the world and shape a brighter future. Today's complex challenges can only be resolved by deepening our insight into people, culture, and societies. With a Fellowship of around 1,800 leading national and international academics, the Academy invests in researchers and projects across the UK and overseas; engages the public with fresh thinking and debates; and brings together scholars, government, business, and civil society to influence policy. About the role This is a newly created leadership role within a newly merged Fellowship and Development Directorate, focused on shaping meaningful engagement, bringing together stewardship of a prestigious community. The Fellowship is central to the Academy's identity and Fellows contribute to governance, peer review and the wider life of the organisation, an elected body that underpins our credibility. You will ensure this community feels connected and valued, while overseeing the integrity and evolution of key processes such as elections and onboarding. Alongside this is a large and growing alumni community of past award holders. This is an underdeveloped opportunity, and you will lead the development of a clear and purposeful approach to alumni engagement, creating opportunities for connection and contribution. Working closely with senior stakeholders, including the President, Vice Presidents and Directors, you will align engagement with wider strategic priorities across communications, policy and fundraising. There is also a clear opportunity to modernise systems, improve the use of data and create more joined-up ways of working. Crucially, over time, you will drive forward and support the evolution of a more integrated strategy across both Fellowship and alumni communities. What we are looking for We are looking for a credible and thoughtful leader, comfortable working in a complex and values-led environment. You may come from higher education, a learned society, a membership organisation, a research funder or a similarly complex setting. What matters most is your ability to work across stakeholders and bring people with you. You will be able to build trust with senior academics and committees while leading your team through change. You will bring sound judgement, strong communication skills and the confidence to navigate different perspectives with care. You will think strategically while staying close to delivery, able to shape something new while respecting what already exists. Experience of aligning engagement with wider organisational priorities, such as influence, participation or fundraising, will be valuable. Above all, you will be motivated by the Academy's purpose. Collaborative, inclusive and curious, with a commitment to creating meaningful experiences for those who engage.

Today, the charity provides accommodation, prevention and support services to thousands of marginalised young people across the UK each year.
