About the Role

The primary focus of the Grants Officer is to support schools and youth organisations to operate the Jack Petchey Achievement Award scheme effectively and to promote, grow and deliver this and other JPF grant programmes across London and Essex. Although the geographical remit of each Grants officer can change on occasion, it is anticipated that this role will be responsible for the London Boroughs across North West and South West London, plus uniform youth groups who deliver their activities cross-borough.

The Achievement Award scheme is JPF’s flagship programme, with almost 2000 schemes in over 1400 schools, colleges and youth organisations across London and Essex. Through the programme, we invest millions of pounds each year to support young people and youth work. This is an amazing chance for you to have a big impact. The Achievement Award Scheme enables schools, colleges and youth organisations to recognise, reward and celebrate young people’s achievements. At JPF we are passionate about encouraging young people to raise their aspirations, believe in themselves and make a contribution to society. Achievement Awards are designed to recognise a wide range of achievement, not just those achieving academically but those ‘doing their best’ or demonstrating leadership, resilience and determination.

The post holder will manage delivery of the scheme and associated small grants in an assigned area of London and/or Essex. They will be responsible for maintaining positive relationships with schools and youth organisations in a dedicated area of London or Essex. The role will involve significant travel to visit schools and youth organisations, as well as outreach and community engagement work to identify and support new groups to apply to join our small grants schemes. This work will also include evenings and occasional weekend work, especially to support our Achievement Award celebration events.

The successful candidate would therefore be someone who has flexibility to travel, work out-of-office hours, enjoys building local relationships and public speaking, as well as navigating a busy grants and assessment caseload (desk-based processing, telephone calls/emails, and regular use of a database). It could be a great role for someone living in North West or South West London.

JPF is an Equal Opportunities Employer and we seek to build a team that reflects the diverse communities we serve. We particularly welcome applications from black and minority ethnic candidates as they are currently under-represented in our team.

The primary responsibilities of the work will be:

• To promote and strengthen the Jack Petchey Achievement Award scheme and associated programmes (Leader Award Grants, Educational Visits, Environmental Awards and Partnership Programmes) in schools and youth organisations.
• To support schools and youth organisations to administer the Jack Petchey Achievement Award scheme to a high standard and maximise the positive impact it has on young people.
• To ensure that schools and youth organisations make use of all the small programmes and partnership programmes associated with the Jack Petchey Achievement Award scheme.
• To ensure that accurate data is recorded on all JPF systems.
• To support programme growth, impact and reach by building stakeholder relationships in your assigned local area.
• To assess new applications and monitor the impact of the Achievement Award Grants we make in your assigned local area. • To work with your colleagues in the Grants Team to deliver excellent grant making and relationships with Jack Petchey Foundation beneficiaries.

The role demands a wide range of skills and a high degree of autonomy, reliability and flexibility. We are seeking an efficient, highly organised team member with excellent communication skills and a passion for our work.

You will possess an eye for detail, good administration skills and the ability to communicate confidently and present a positive external profile for the charity. This is a busy and satisfying role, with each Grants Officer leading relationships with between 350-400 organisations.

Evening and weekend work is a requirement to meet the demands of this role, which on occasion can require up to 2-3 evenings in one week, depending on the event schedule. Time off in lieu will be granted for additional hours worked.

This is a perfect time to join the Foundation —under our new Head of Grants team, we are exploring how to streamline our processes, work with AI and improve our guidance.

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

About us 

The Nuffield Council on Bioethics (NCOB) is a leading independent policy and research centre, and the foremost bioethics body in the UK. We are on a mission to embed ethics in decisions regarding biomedicine and heath so that we all benefit. 

For over thirty years we have tackled some of the most complex and controversial bioethical issues facing society. We are funded jointly by the Nuffield Foundation, Wellcome and the Medical Research Council.

We aim to inform policy and public debate through timely consideration of the ethical questions raised by biological and medical research so that the benefits to society are realised in a way that is consistent with public values. Our work has led to shifts in public understanding and policy change on topics ranging from assisted reproduction and genome editing to managing the disagreements that arise in the care of critically ill children. 

Central to our reputation and standing is our independence – we do not represent any  particular group or view and we select our own topics, methodologies and outputs. 

We select topics to examine through our horizon scanning programme and use a variety of approaches to identify, consider and resolve the ethical issues they raise. Our approach is multidisciplinary and deliberative. We draw on a wide range of expertise and experience and use the best available evidence.

We collaborate where our expertise complements those of other organisations (e.g. see our current collaboration on Genomics and AI Futures with the Ada Lovelace Institute). 

We engage with a wide range of different voices and views and are committed to increasing the diversity of the people we work with. As part of the Nuffield Foundation, we are a small team with the practical support of an established organisation that cares for its employees.
