At Latin American House (LAH), sound finances underpin everything we do, from free advice services for migrants navigating complex systems, to community-led cultural activities open to everyone. Our space hire, Saturday School, and other self-generated income, alongside donations, are what make it all possible, directly sustaining support for the people who need it most. About us LAH is a community-led charity driven by and for Latin Americans in the UK. For decades, we have been supporting Latin American and other Spanish and Portuguese-speaking migrants, championing their rights, wellbeing, and inclusion. We are a small, close-knit team with big ambitions, and everything we do is rooted in the lived experiences of the communities we serve. Our work takes place across London and at our community centre in Kilburn, North West London. About the role This is a part-time, permanent role (14 hours per week) that sits at the heart of LAH's operations and administration. As our Bookkeeper, you will ensure our financial records are accurate, our compliance obligations are met, and our senior team has the reliable information they need to make good decisions. Day to day, you will process invoices and payments, reconcile bank accounts, prepare records for our annual audit, manage our income tracking across all programmes, and support payroll administration, all using Xero. You will report directly to the Director and work closely with the wider team. This is not a back-office role at a distance from our mission. You will be on-site with us, part of the team, and your work will be visible and valued. What we are looking for You will bring at least two years of bookkeeping experience, ideally in the voluntary sector, alongside a relevant accounting qualification (IAB, AAT or equivalent).

Just as importantly, you will have an understanding of and commitment to the communities we serve, and you will bring that commitment to everything you do. We are particularly encouraging applications from people with lived experience of migration, and welcome applications from racialised, disabled, working class and LGBTQ+ backgrounds.

EMpower is a global philanthropic foundation that partners with organisations across 15 emerging market countries who are focused on solutions that integrate the voices and experiences of marginalised young people, especially girls, aged between 10-24 years. We provide grants and capacity building support to local organisations working to strengthen education and livelihoods of young people across Africa, Asia, Latin America and Turkey. EMpower's fundraising proposition is proven and highly differentiated - we invest in local partner organisations for 10 years; a long-term approach that dramatically improved outcomes whilst also demonstrating short term progress. Significantly, we have the unique advantage that our fundraising, administration and management costs are covered by our Board of Directors, which means that every penny donated goes to where it is needed most. This proposition and our recent investment into fundraising means that our income has tripled over the last 10 years. We are raising more money than ever before through our flagship annual dinners in New York, London, Hong Kong and Singapore; in London last year we raised £2.2m in 20 min! We have attracted new large-scale corporate donors on top of maintaining our traditional areas of relationship-based fundraising success, including HNWI from the finance sector. Yet we know we are still only scratching the surface of what's possible. This Director of Fundraising, UK role will take responsibility for all UK income streams including corporates, trusts and foundations, institutional funders, events and HNWIs. You will inherit a small but strong existing UK team, a burgeoning pipeline and a passionate and well-connected Board of Directors and volunteer network. In this role, you will drive the highest level of strategy discussions within the team, whilst still providing hands-on leadership, vision and accountability to push forward existing and new business opportunities. The position is a key member of the fundraising senior leadership team, sharing collective responsibility for delivering income to achieve the organisation's strategy and vision. When thinking about the profile of individuals who would be well suited to this role and who will bring our fundraising in the UK to the next level, it is likely you will have substantial fundraising and leadership experience, with a clear track record of securing funds from high value donors. Your expertise may come from any of the major donor income streams, including statutory foundations, private trusts, corporates or HNWIs. You will bring strategic thinking, ambition and excellent people leadership skills, alongside the ability to successfully (and comfortably) move between strategic spheres and hands-on operational delivery, holding strong personal accountability to drive results. Experience of successfully operating within a complex global context or team structure would be highly advantageous.
