Uniting to Combat NTDs are looking for an exceptional administrator and coordinator to provide complex logistical support to the Uniting team and governance groups.

Salary: circa £33,000 per annum

Location: UK Remote, with quarterly travel to Brighton

Contract: Fixed Term Contract to December 2025 with possibility of extension, funding dependent.

Hours: This is a full-time role with some flexibility around hours worked

Neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) are a group of preventable and treatable diseases that affect about 1.65 billion people around the world. The World Health Organization currently recognises twenty diseases as NTDs.

Uniting to Combat NTDs is a global advocacy organisation that exists to end NTDs by mobilising resources in support of the World Health Organization's NTD road map and the Sustainable Development Goals. We envision a world where no-one suffers from these preventable and treatable diseases. We are hosted by Sightsavers and offer a great place to work.

In February 2023, we conducted a mid-term review of our 2021-2030 strategy to assess its continued relevance in light of the substantial global challenges that have emerged since its inception. While we re-affirmed the strategy's continued importance, we recognized the imperative of intensifying our efforts in resource mobilisation to address persistent funding gaps, the absence of dependable, long-term funding mechanisms for global NTD programs, and significant changes to the global health architecture.

Our target over the next five years is to mobilise over US$2bn towards the WHO NTD road map from a range of sources, existing and new, including from donor governments, multi-lateral development banks, affected countries, and innovative financing. Our success will be measured by the volume of funding we are able to mobilise for countries and individuals affected by NTDs.

Background

Around the world, public resources are being raised and spent unfairly and ineffectively, leaving millions of people without access to the quality public goods and services they need to thrive. Governments often make public resource decisions without much consultation or information from the public. Meanwhile, those with power and privilege very effectively influence government decisions in their favour.

Our goal is to make governments raise and spend public money more so that everyone has the resources and opportunities they need to thrive and get ahead. To achieve this, The International Budget Partnership (IBP) partners with budget analysts, community organizers, and advocates in 120 countries to advance public budget systems that work for people. Together, we generate data, advocate for reform, and build the skills and knowledge of people so that everyone can have a voice in public money decisions that impact their lives. For more than 25 years we have built a global network of partners that promote the public’s right to have a say in public finance. More recently we have scaled up our impacts to help communities drive change in how governments both raise and spend public resources and to inform decisions to ensure those resource translate into quality services—from healthcare to clean water.

Purpose of Role

We are currently recruiting for two roles in our fundraising team. Our other role is Communications and Fundraising Officer and is focused on supporter care. Both of these roles are part time. We have written them separately as we believe that typically these are two different skill sets within the fundraising space.

However, if you believe that you have strength in both areas, we'd love to hear from you. We are very open to discussing combining the roles into one full time role. A combined role would involve hybrid working including travel to our London and Brighton sites and candidates would need to be comfortable in having a broad generalist role. Both skill sets would be tested at interview. If you would like to be considered for the combined role, please specify this in your cover letter.

More homeworking options are available for the Grants and Trusts role than for the Communications and Fundraising role.   

Purpose of the role

Our work is growing quickly, so it's an exciting time to join our small but brilliant team. If you are an experienced Fundraiser with a strong track record of success with trusts and grants, are enthusiastic about church-led social action, passionate about tackling sexual exploitation, and have a willingness to roll up your sleeves and get stuck in, we would love to hear from you.

The ideal candidate would be a strong bid writer with experience in raising funds through grants and trusts (both Christian and secular) and statutory funding.

We have a clear fundraising strategy, a good track record with trusts and grants, existing relationships with funders, a pipeline already in place and plenty of content to draw from - so you will have a solid foundation to enable you to hit the ground running. We’d also love to benefit from your expertise, so you will be working with our Directors very closely, sharing ideas, reviewing strategy and developing and delivering new ideas and initiatives.

The purpose of this new role is to:

• Nurture our relationships with existing grant funders
• Generate new grants and trusts leads through quarterly prospecting
• Increase our grants and trusts income through bid writing

The Operations Manager will work closely with the Managing Director to ensure the charity operates effectively. The Operations Manager will lead on the development of policies and procedures to ensure regulatory compliance, and robust management processes.

The Operations Manager will add to the staff team by bringing a skillset that is grounded in administration processes, excellent IT competence, and a numerate, systemising and detail-orientated mindset.

This is an exciting opportunity to develop your skills and experience as a multi-disciplined
fundraiser, supporting a small but growing organisation in its mission to bring Proportional
Representation to the UK, and fix our broken political system.

This is an exciting and important time to be joining Make Votes Matter. The General Election
in 2024 was the most disproportionate in history; trust in politics is low and people don’t
feel heard by politicians. We believe that Proportional Representation could repair our
broken politics and the majority of the public agrees.

Our ability to deliver our new three-year strategy rests on harnessing the power of
grassroots activists to put pressure on the Government and political parties; we need an
ambitious fundraiser to help fund our strategy. The majority of our income comes from
people who care as deeply about electoral reform as we do, so we are looking for someone
with a particular passion for individual giving and philanthropy.

You will be a core part of the team, working closely with the CEO to deliver ambitious
fundraising targets.

Make Votes Matter is committed to building a culturally and politically diverse team.

Reporting to: Chief Executive
Purpose of role: Develop, manage and implement Make Votes Matter’s fundraising strategy.

Headline terms and conditions

Salary:£35,000
Hours: 35 hours p/w (flexible and part time working arrangements considered)
Pension: employer contribution
Leave: 25 days, Christmas break, plus bank holidays

Interviews: Week commencing 30 March 2025

You must have the right to work in the UK

Email a completed application form, a recent CV and a covering letter to our Office Manager (see 'How to apply' below).

Using AI

We recognise that many applicants use AI tools like ChatGPT for drafting applications. Whilst these tools can be helpful, we advise you to first write your application personally and then use AI to refine it. This approach ensures your application remains original and truly reflective of your unique experiences. Last year, we noticed a trend of AI-generated applications lacking individuality, which hindered our ability to connect with applicants. Remember, it's your personal story, passions and motivations that make you stand out. Let AI assist you, but let your own voice lead the way.
