The Freedom Fund was established in 2014 to act as a global catalyst to ending modern slavery once and for all by mobilising the knowledge, capital and will of donors, partners and beneficiaries. Through the generosity of our incredible investors and donors, we have already provided around $100m of funding into frontline organisations and communities and helped them to build the powerful coalitions needed to affect change at local and national levels. And as we look forward to the coming years, our recently launched strategy will see us double down on our commitment to investing in frontline anti-slavery organisations and movements, fostering systems change, and serving as a valued funding partner.

This includes ensuring we have robust controls and due diligence processes in place to offer assurance to our funders and to confidently balance risk with the needs of our partners. Through leadership of the Head of Human Resources & Operations, you will also advise on global HR strategies so that we can attract and retain the best people and create a culture where our staff have a clear sense of belonging and feel truly valued for who they are. Additionally, you will also provide strategic oversight of our safeguarding, legal, governance and company secretarial matters.

We are looking for an outstanding, qualified accountant with exceptional strategic and technical finance skills, including knowledge of UK/US accounting principles, with experience of working within an international non-profit environment.

We particularly encourage candidates with lived experience of trafficking and/or forced labour. We also proactively welcome candidates from a global majority background, those who identify as disabled and people from low socioeconomic backgrounds as we know that these groups are underrepresented at a senior level across the sector. The role will be based in London, although we will consider visa sponsorship for an exceptional candidate.

We’re looking for an experienced, part-time activities facilitator to deliver our Green Team gardening project.

What we do 

Time & Talents is a lively, busy community centre in the heart of Rotherhithe, SE16.  Set in a leafy heritage building, and ‘T&T2’, our second venue in Surrey Quays Shopping Centre, we offer something for everyone. With a history of 138 years of supporting people of all ages in Rotherhithe and Bermondsey, we bring people together for mutual support, fun and friendship, with a wide range of services and activities for older people and other adults, along with volunteering and other accessible activities for all members of the community.

T&T carries out a wide range of activities and events, but we need support and growing our voice. We have made some big changes in our ways of working since Covid, shifting and responding to community need and sector landscape.

You’ll play a key role in ensuring that local people know about what we do, connect with our services and activities, and join us in celebrating our successes.

While appropriate training will be given, we are looking for candidates with some social care experience ideally.

We are an energetic, experienced, and passionate team of 15 mostly part-time workers with a strong sense of shared purpose and a lively sense of community. You’ll have the chance to make a big contribution to a strong and innovative organisation which has solidified its reach and impact in recent years.

We’re looking for a new Chief Executive Officer to lead our vital work, bringing their expertise in data and technology and their passion for nature to drive the NBN Trust forwards.
