Develop and manage an engaging and motivating donor stewardship programme. Trusts & Foundations: Identify and research funding opportunities from trusts, foundations and grant makers. Write compelling funding applications and proposals. Build strong partner relationships with grant funders, creating meaningful opportunities for ongoing engagement with our work as appropriate. Ensure effective reporting on impact, working closely with SHiFT's learning and practice teams to support accuracy and effectiveness. Build a sustainable pipeline of grant opportunities aligned with SHiFT's strategy. Corporate Partnerships: Identify and develop partnerships with corporate organisations aligned with the charity's mission, with a clear analysis of the cost/benefit potential of each relationship. Secure financial and in-kind support from businesses across sectors such as food, retail, logistics, education, community impact and opportunities for the children and families SHiFT works with.

Experience in working with senior leaders such as high net worth individuals, foundation trustees, corporate board members. Experience in funded collaboration with public services.

COMMITMENT TO EQUITY, DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION SHiFT is committed to building an anti-racist, anti-oppressive and inclusive organisation. We recognise the over-representation of Black, Brown and Mixed Heritage children in the youth justice system, and the wider structural inequalities affecting many children and families we work alongside.
