Qualifications

Institute of Fundraising qualifications desirable

CHT is a dynamic, innovative and expanding charity in the adult mental health sector. To help realise our ambitions we are looking for an experienced fundraising and communications expert as Head of Fundraising and Communications. This is a new role and we are looking for an ambitious, enthusiastic and creative person with the expertise and drive to make the role their own, to expand our capacity and reach, and to grow the role, their team and the charity.

CHT

CHT is a mental health charity that provides seven rehabilitative residential communities in London and Sussex for people experiencing severe mental health difficulties, and training in the field of relational practice in mental health.

Poor mental health is a national crisis. Those with the severest of mental health difficulties experience  a high risk of suicide and self-harm, a lack of independence, and a loss of hope. Though many are still young adults, most of our residents have spent years in psychiatric hospitals before coming to CHT; medication alone is not the answer. For 30 years, CHT has provided a unique approach with a distinct clinical model. We work with individuals with a history of multiple or prolonged hospital admissions, providing an alternative, longer-term solution that enables the majority of our residents to move on to lower support, with many taking up education, training or employment while still with us – a stark contrast to psychiatric hospital. 

Purpose of role 

As part of our five-year strategic plan two years ago CHT commissioned a part-time consultant to develop our fundraising and communications capacity from scratch. We now feel that the time is right to build on the work done so far and to step up a gear and appoint our own full-time Head of Fundraising and Communications who will lead on the further growth of our fundraising capacity and fully develop our marketing. This is a new post for someone creative and innovative who wants to step up in their career and help CHT step up in our fundraising and communications capabilities. We are a growth-oriented charity both in terms of personal learning and development and in terms of our role in the mental health sector, and we are looking for an individual who brings established fundraising and communications skills and who is looking for an opportunity for personal and professional growth.

The purpose of the Head of Fundraising and Communications role is to lead on implementing the Board of Trustees’ strategic objectives in increasing our fundraising capacity and income; developing our marketing capacity and reputation management so that we enjoy high levels of referrals and a higher sector profile both as a provider of services and as a training organisation; and to line manage CHT’s small existing fundraising and communications team.

The RAF Charitable Trust is looking for someone with vision and ambition to lead the organisation. The need for our work is clear. Technology and aviation continue to advance at an unprecedented rate. The IET estimates that the skills shortage in STEM jobs costs the UK economy £1.5bn a year, and there are over 173,000 STEM vacancies. The UK Commission for Employment and Skills stated in 2022 that 43 per cent of STEM vacancies were hard to fill due to a shortage of applicants, leaving tech skills in even higher demand. The All-Party Parliamentary Group on Diversity and Inclusion in STEM also notes significant inequality in high skilled and graduate level roles for those from minority and disadvantaged backgrounds. RIAT’s ongoing success enables RAFCT to be increasingly ambitious regarding its impact through the inspiration of young people: 1. By 2026, RAFCT will have delivered high-quality interventions to over 500,000 young people (measured from 2022).

2. From 2026, RAFCT will deliver high-quality interventions to at least 500,000 young people every year.

3. These interventions will either be via:

a. New programmes unique to RAFCT

b. Existing programmes scaled with funding from RAFCT

To achieve this ambition, we are looking for a highly experienced Director to continue the Charity’s trajectory of growth. The successful candidate will work with the RAFCT Chair and Board of Trustees to set, implement, and then assure the delivery of the Trust’s strategy. The Director will lead the Trust’s charity team, and work closely with the Trust’s trading company, RAF Charitable Trust Enterprises Ltd, the RAF, and existing and new delivery partners and charities.

This is a role that requires pragmatism, vision, diplomacy and flexible and creative thinking. The successful candidate will be a strategic and credible leader with strong financial acumen and a successful leadership track record. They will possess an innovative and entrepreneurial mindset, and be able to connect ideas and people. They will have a proven record of collaboration while providing constructive challenge when appropriate, and they will have good experience of measuring impact in a national STEM setting. They will also ensure high operational standards while continuing to promote a transparent, collaborative and values-driven culture within the Charity team.

Of note, the successful candidate will be highly supportive of the RAF and Defence, and have a passion to deliver the life-changing benefits for young people of an interest in aviation, and STEM.
