Gingerbread exists to fight for the nearly 2 million single parents in England and Wales and their children. With roots stretching back over 100 years, we have a long history of highly effective campaigning that has redefined the regard in which single parents are held, and a track record of delivering well-respected single-parent focused services. We are working to achieve our vision of a world in which all single parents and their children thrive.
But against the backdrop of the cost-of-living crisis, too many single parents are currently battling to feed their families and pay their bills each month. That is why the work that we do is as important now as it ever was, and so last year we launched a new strategy that works to deliver support for today and change for tomorrow. Over the coming years, we will seek to grow our income and reach, taking a systems-change approach to discrimination and attitudes and a programmatic approach to delivering our services and campaigns.
The landscape over the coming years will continue to be challenging for so many charities like ours. With less funding available and higher costs of delivery, we must ensure that we remain agile and resilient for the future so that we can respond to opportunities as they arise. We are looking for a skilled Head of Finance & Resources to join us on a 6–9-month contract basis to help drive improvements across our finance, HR and IT functions, delivering efficiencies and smarter ways of working through better use of systems, more integrated budgeting processes and robust controls.
Our Head of Finance & Resources is a key member of our senior management team (SMT), and you will be working closely with the CEO, Board and wider SMT on all financial matters as we look to deliver against our strategy and grow our fundraising presence. The role will require a high degree of internal management and empathetic leadership style to ensure you bring your team with you through during the period of change.
We are looking for an experienced leader and qualified accountant with exceptional strategic and operational finance skills gained in the charity sector, including knowledge of supporting fundraising strategies. You will have good project management skills and experience of leading change management or continuous improvement programmes. You will also have a collaborative and selfless style, with the ability to inspire those around you and instil confidence at all levels.

We are looking for a Fundraising Manager to lead on our fundraising by developing and implementing a strategy to secure core funding, as well as working with other managers to secure project funding. You will need to be innovative and determined as well as being an excellent communicator. This is a new role and it will really suit someone who is a confident self-starter with an eye for detail.
Emmaus Bristol is a fabulous place to work and you leave every day with the satisfaction that your hard work has helped people out of homelessness. Emmaus is different to other homeless charities in that staff work alongside formerly homeless residents, known within Emmaus as Companions. So as well as working as part of our employee team, you’d also work alongside Companions and other volunteers.
We are a small charity, and your ability to help us grow our income will make an enormous difference to our beneficiaries and support us in achieving our five-year plan. We want someone in the role who is fired up by our mission and able to inspire this in our donors.
If you’d be excited by presenting to a potential donor or telling our story in written words through a detailed bid application, and are aware of trends in an evolving funding landscape, then this is the role for you!
This is a flexible position, and we are pleased to be able to offer it on either a full or part-time basis. Given the varied nature of the role, you will be able to work from home as well as in our office, and get out and about building relationships on our behalf.
Your enthusiasm and personality are as important to us as direct fundraising experience, so if your skills have been gained in a different sector, we will still welcome your application if you have relevant transferable skills. The key requirements are that you have experience of securing contracts or funding, can quickly build relationships with others, and are highly numerate and literate.

Our commitment to diversity
Diversity is one of our core values as an organisation and we are committed to creating an inclusive working environment where diversity is valued and there is equality of opportunity. We also recognise that the climate and ecological crisis disproportionately impacts minority and/or marginalised communities – yet these voices are largely underrepresented in the sector. Currently, the environmental sector is the second least diverse in the UK, with just 4.8% of employees from ethnic minority backgrounds. If the environmental movement is to succeed in creating a greener future that supports society as a whole, we need diverse voices at the heart of our programmes. We therefore encourage people from demographics that are currently underrepresented in the environmental movement to apply.
Guaranteed interview scheme
We particularly encourage applications from people from ethnic minority backgrounds or living with a disability or long-term health conditions. We will offer an interview to any candidates from ethnic minority backgrounds or living with a disability who opt into our Guaranteed Interview Scheme when applying and who meet the essential criteria for this role.
How to apply
The deadline for applications is Sunday 27 October 2024 at midnight. Please click on 'Apply' to complete the online application form.
First interviews will be held remotely in the week commencing 04 November. Second interviews will be held in the week commencing 11 November.
