About Beyond the Streets
A wonderful opportunity exists to join the energetic, friendly, and talented Beyond the Streets staff team, dedicated to achieving the aim of living in a UK where women aren’t compelled to sell sex; free from coercion, violence, poverty, and other abuses. We also work towards the aim of ensuring that those that are involved in selling sex can access effective services without experiencing barriers such as stigma, a lack of understanding, and judgemental attitudes.
The charity formed over 20 years ago, and we’re now a leading specialist within our theme. Beyond the Streets works in 2 key areas:
1) Direct Support: We provide direct support for women involved in selling sex via two frontline services: 1) Beyond Support, based in Southampton (a national remote telephone service offering long-term 1:1 support with trained Women’s Support Worker); 2) Door of Hope, based in east London supporting women involved in selling sex on street via street outreach, drop-ins, advocacy to gain/maintain access to services, 1:1 Psychotherapy sessions, and 1:1 long-term support
2) Impact Work: We run training courses for third sector / statutory professionals to increase awareness and educate on women’s support needs. In partnership we produce research and resources and reports, involving lived experience voices, to support better access to services for women and encourage systemic change. We also host an affiliate network of 30+ organisations nationwide.
About the role…
We’re looking for someone with energy, motivation, and experience to be able to make an instant and vital impact on the organisation; someone who can understand the big picture, has good attention to detail and can make things happen. The role will focus on increasing income from donations and sustaining our current grant income; both playing a key role in maintaining our frontline services and impact work. With plans around developing our supporter base and growing our number of regular donors already in place, you will not only have the opportunity to quickly become involved in key activities but also the chance to influence these plans through your own expertise. The position will report to the Grants Manager and work closely with the Comms and Marketing Officer as well as beside the wider Beyond the Streets team.
You’ll need…
- experience of writing compelling copy to inspire people to donate
- experience of working in a charity fundraising environment
- experience of leading on digital fundraising events/campaigns and community fundraising appeals
- understanding of violence against women & girls and be passionate about making a difference
- strong interpersonal skills so you’ll quickly build rapports with internal and external stakeholders
- to be a self-motivator as well as keen collaborator, who enjoys working within a team and thrives on achieving goals
- to be a creative thinker, who is solution focused, with a natural attention to detail
Sometimes, research shows that particularly women will not apply for a job if they don’t meet all the criteria. Therefore if you’re interested in the role but only meet some and not all the criteria, we’d love for you to apply! You may be the person who is the best fit for our team and this role; we wouldn’t want you or us to miss out!
All those that are shortlisted and invited to interview will receive a pre-interview pack that will include an introduction to the friendly interview panel and the list of questions that they will be asking.
Genuine Occupational Requirement (GOR)
Due to nature of this role involving engaging with women around the subject of violence against women, this post is restricted to female applicants under Section 9 of the Equality Act 2010.
You’ll enjoy…
