About The Felix Project

The Felix Project is London’s largest food redistribution charity. Started in 2016, its vision is a London where good food is never wasted, and no one goes hungry. In 2024 our workforce of over 200 staff and 13,000 volunteers collected and distributed the equivalent of 38 million meals to Londoners in need. This is done through a network of 1,200 community organisations and schools who are working on the frontline to feed people who are experiencing hunger and cannot afford to regularly buy the food they need. The Felix Project works with hundreds of suppliers from across the food industry, including supermarkets, wholesalers, farms and restaurants to rescue high quality surplus food, that cannot be sold and would otherwise go to waste.

In London, one in four working families regularly struggle to afford to feed their children, equating to an estimated 325,000 families across the capital. The cost of food has increased by 30% in the past three years and one in eight working families have less than £3 a day for food, after paying their bills. About 20% of working families have been forced to access a food support service for the first time during 2024 due to the rising cost of living. 

Our work has never been more needed, and demand continues to grow: we are building our expertise and impact in response. The Felix Project now operates from four main depots in North, South, East, and West London, with ‘point-to-point’ projects in Central London and Canary Wharf. Felix’s Kitchen in our East London depot produces up to 5,000 meals per day from surplus food. Felix’s Multibank in West London distributes non-food items to those who need it most. As part of the charity’s involvement with The Coronation Food Project, we are launching an innovative food processing lab – The Felix Food Factory.

Could you build and support a fundraising community to help tackle health inequalities for people affected by cancer in the North West?

Are you passionate about the power of communities to make real change happen through fundraising?

Working for a leading cancer charity as their brand-new Regional Fundraiser, you'll help schools, community groups, individual volunteers and local businesses to fund world-class research. Through award-winning, high-impact campaigns, you'll challenge the cause, improve the care and find the cure for cancer.

Salary: £29-34k (able to appoint across the band)
Contract: Permanent, either full time, part-time or reduced hours
Location: Homebased, with regular travel across your local patch (and team meetings held in Liverpool)
Benefits: 25 days (+ bank and Christmas closure), 5% employer pension contribution
Culture: Flexible, supportive, able to work with autonomy

About the charity

Living in the North West, we're 25% more likely to be diagnosed with cancer than elsewhere in the UK and many cancers are much more common across the region. The region also suffers from extreme social-deprivation and health inequalities which, when combined, lead to a lower-than-average life-expectancy and poorer quality of life for our communities.

Community fundraising is an important vehicle to challenge this - by raising money and awareness.

There are two roles in the team - one full time and one part-time. Regions could be either Greater Manchester, Lancashire or North Wales - you'll be homebased with travel across the patch to meet supporters.

We're flexible on how the region is split, depending on where talented people live.

What will I be fundraising for?

Recent fundable projects include a groundbreaking annual Regional Report on cancer and the innovative Lab-Coat Learning education programme for the region's schools.

You'll act as the face of the charity out in the community, spreading the word about how fundraising can drive positive change. You'll develop relationships with volunteer fundraisers, community groups and local businesses, encouraging and motivating them to fundraise.

You'll deliver interactive presentations, activities and outreach sessions at schools and volunteer groups, offering support, advice and guidance on how people can supercharge their fundraising.

About you

You join a passionate and well-established fundraising team, who genuinely care about and support one another.

Key attributes we're looking for in our new Regional Fundraiser:

• Experience working in a face-to-face role, either fundraising, sales, account or volunteer management.
• Engaging presentation skills, able to inspire people to take action.
• Strong interpersonal and relationship-building skills.
• A self-motivated individual, capable of working independently and as part of a team.
• Target-driven, comfortable and confident working with achievable KPIs and targets.
• A team player, someone who brings the best out in other people.
• Flexibility to attend fundraising events, including some evenings and weekends.
• Ability to travel independently across the North West.

If you're driven by making a difference in the fight against cancer, then step forward: we'd absolutely love to hear from you.

Please send a copy of your profile or CV to Ellen Drummond at Charity People as the first step.

You will lead on creating a strong fundraising culture across the organisation and build a fundraising mindset into our marketing and communications. You will lead the development and implementation of a new fundraising strategy, including working with teams across the organisation to build a funding pipeline that not only sustains our current services in the longer term but increases income in line with our strategy for growth. This will include diversifying our income through generating a mix of funds from trusts and foundations, corporate partners, individual giving and community fundraising. You will also support the development and delivery of our Communications Strategy. 

This is a career-defining role, working with a wonderful and passionate team. If you share our ambition and our values, we will give you the resources and support you need to succeed. You'll have a programme of activity to enthuse and engage the support we need to fulfil our mission of providing specialised counselling, support and independent advocacy for women who have experienced rape or sexual violence.

Planning Policy Officer
Job ref: PPO
Salary: £35,358 per annum
Location: Old Street, N1 7NH. Most office-based staff work hybrid, working part of the time in the office and part of the time at home.

This is a very exciting time for CPRE, with a change of government offering an opportunity to effectively advocate for the countryside, building on the success of our recent Rooftop Solar Revolution and Rural Affordable Housing campaigns and planning for our upcoming centenary in 2026.

We are looking for a keen planner with excellent communication skills to join our Policy and Advocacy Team to help us continue to effectively influence national planning policy and legislation and provide expert planning support and advice. This is a fantastic opportunity for an enthusiastic and motivated individual to gain planning policy experience and make a real difference advocating for countryside friendly solutions to the biggest threats facing rural England today.

At CPRE no two days are the same. On a day-to-day basis you may be helping to produce research and analysis relating to key policy asks using Geographic Information System (GIS) software; writing planning blogs or explainers with colleagues; joining calls with external stakeholders, MPs and civil servants, helping to communicate CPRE policy positions; working with our members and the CPRE network to provide planning support; and helping to respond to government consultations on a wide range of relevant topics.

You will primarily work with the planning policy manager, head of policy and planning and campaigns lead; however, there will be plenty of opportunities to gain experience in other areas by working closely with colleagues in other departments. An ability to work with a broad range of people from different disciplines is essential. 

As we are a federated charity, you will also be involved in providing support to our network through planning support meetings, Policy and Campaigns committee meetings, induction sessions for planning volunteers, and other network events.

Alongside day-to-day work, there are lots of opportunities to get involved in other aspects of the organisation including the CPRE Allyship Group, the centenary planning group and staff social group. We enjoy opportunities to come together as often as we can with weekly team meetings, monthly anchor days and twice-yearly staff conferences.

We are committed to developing an inclusive and diverse CPRE in which everyone feels supported, valued, and always able to be themselves at work, because we recognise that a diverse and inclusive workforce is important in achieving our vision of a thriving, beautiful countryside for everyone. We therefore welcome applications from people of all backgrounds. 

Closing date: 9am, Wednesday 2 April 2025
Interviews: Tuesday 15 and Wednesday 16 April 2025
