About us

The Tudor Trust is a grant-making organisation with a long-standing commitment to funding smaller, grassroots organisations. With an endowment of around £220m, our annual commitment to grants has averaged £20 million. 

We are currently in a period of transition from a family foundation to one that is independently led by a newly formed board of trustees.  At the same time, we are rebuilding our staffing structure in line with an emerging strategy that has greater emphasis on aligning our investments to building thriving communities.  We want to take a systems thinking approach that centres racial justice in all our work.

As we continue on our transformative journey, an opportunity has arisen to join the Tudor Trust as the Head of Finance and Operations. You will provide direction to our financial strategy and management of the organisation, ensuring sustainable growth and financial health.

About the role

The Head of Finance and Operations will be responsible for all finance support including budgeting, reporting, financial planning, managing risk and liaising with external auditors as well as advising senior management on fiscal strategy, while fostering a culture of financial accountability and continuous process improvement.  

As a senior manager within Tudor Trust, you will actively contribute to the broader goals and ambition of the charity. You will work closely with the chief executive and board of trustees.  This includes acting as Company Secretary and working particularly closely with trustees and sub-committees focused on all aspects of investment and finance. 

In line with our emerging strategy, there will also be opportunities to support our thinking on impact and social investments, and alternative models to providing social loans and capital grants, alongside our grantmaking.

You will be supervising a finance consultant who provides additional support with the day-to-day financial recording and monthly management accounts.

About the Organisation

Stroke Association. Rebuilding lives after stroke.

When stroke strikes, part of your brain shuts down. And so does a part of you. That’s because a stroke happens in the brain, the control centre for who we are and what we can do. It happens every five minutes in the UK and changes lives instantly. Recovery is tough, but with the right specialist support and a ton of courage and determination, the brain can adapt.

We believe everyone deserves to live the best life they can after stroke. And it’s a team effort to get there.

We provide specialist support, fund critical research and campaign to make sure people affected by stroke get the very best care and support to rebuild their lives.

We’re working to improve the diversity of our team.  Because we know that individuality leads to a richer experience for our people and better support for those affected by stroke.

We strongly encourage people from all backgrounds to apply. And we’re particularly looking to increase the number of applications from those with lived experience of stroke and those from under-represented communities. 

Every five minutes, stroke destroys lives. Help us rebuild them and join our team.

In 2019, we developed a bold new corporate strategy so that we can rebuild more lives after stroke and make a bigger difference to people’s lives. To help us deliver our strategy and make a real difference, we are looking to recruit talented people to a number of new roles. If you would like to support stroke survivors to rebuild their lives, we want to hear from you!

You may also have experience in areas such as Research, Scientific Research, Research Manager, Scientific Research Manager, Researcher, Head Researcher, Lead Researcher, Scientific Researcher, Scientific Research Lead.

At The Lullaby Trust our vision is clear: a world where no baby dies suddenly or unexpectedly, and every grieving family gets the support they need. We exist to keep babies safe and support bereaved families. 

We give families a safer start to life and create a supportive space for anyone whose baby or infant has died suddenly or unexpectedly. We empower families and health professionals with trusted advice on keeping babies safe, backed by research, and provide grieving families with bereavement support, side-by-side.

Since 1991 we have reduced the rate of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome by 82% and saved the lives of over 32,000 babies. But our work is not over, as three babies still die suddenly and unexpectedly a week. 

As the Corporate Partnerships Manager, you’ll play a vital role in securing funding from companies and businesses to help drive forward our work. We rely completely on voluntary funding to fund our work, and our corporate partnerships play a huge role in enabling us to do this, year after year. The successful candidate will be starting with an excellent baseline and portfolio but will really be able to build the pipeline, taking our partnerships to the next strategic level.

The Corporate Partnerships Manager will:

1. Account manage a range of corporate partnerships from cause related marketing, to charity of the year and staff fundraising
2. Build a new business pipeline and secure new partners 
3. Line manage the Senior Trusts and Foundations Officer within the high-value team 
4. Work with the wider Income and Engagement team to deliver to income targets

It is a key time to be joining The Lullaby Trust as we develop our new brand positioning, new website and creative direction, to help us reach more families and supporters than ever. We are a friendly, flexible employer and want to create a diverse and inclusive work environment for everyone.
