Following a highly successful period of growth, Chance for Childhood has a fantastic opportunity to join our fundraising team.

This is an exciting time to join. Our reach is increasing thanks to the success of multiple bids with trusts, foundations and institutional grantmakers. With enhanced sectoral credibility and a strengthened brand, we are now in a strong position to widen our operational presence and attract new funders for projects that will transform the lives of thousands more children in vulnerable situations. We need your skills and expertise to help us secure these funds and make a real difference to our beneficiaries.

• Birthdays off
• 5% employer’s pension contribution

Who we are

Chance for Childhood believes that no child should have to fight for a safe, happy childhood.

We exist to ensure that every child in Africa can thrive from their early years through to adulthood. Together with partners, supporters, children, and their communities, we protect, educate and create lasting change for every child threatened by violence, neglect and conflict.

We work in five African countries (Ghana, the DRC, Rwanda, Kenya and Uganda) and we are carving out a niche as experts in inclusive education and safe spaces for children facing multiple complex vulnerabilities.

In 2022, we launched the #OverExposed campaign to advocate for ethical imagery and storytelling in the fundraising and marketing materials of international development charities.

Duties

The role will involve a combination of stewardship and new business, helping us to secure support from more trusts, foundations and businesses who share our passion for transforming the lives of children in the communities with whom we work.

Key duties will be to:

• Prospect and research potential grantmakers and businesses who share our strategic objectives
• Take a relationships-based approach wherever possible, establishing warm relationships between partners and Chance for Childhood
• Provide input to the 2025-2030 fundraising strategy, using your experience and knowledge of the fundraising landscape to help us devise an ambitious but sustainable plan to safeguard our work for the next five years
• Maintain a strong pipeline of funding opportunities
• Draft compelling, creative and persuasive funding proposals
• Secure four, five and six figure grants from trusts and foundations
• Manage a small portfolio of trusts and corporate partners, maintaining an accurate calendar of reporting and stewardship expectations
• Write and submit accurate reports to funders’ deadlines
• Beyond meeting formal reporting requirements, provide outstanding informal stewardship to funders, developing strong relationships and increasing the chances of repeat funding
• Communicate skilfully across borders with our brilliant in-country programmes team to maintain a flow of information, stories and data for fundraising and reporting
• Accurately record communications using our fundraising CRM (Beacon) and enable reporting on expected income
• Work effectively within our small, supportive and mighty fundraising and marketing team to ensure strong dissemination of ideas, and fidelity to our organisational brand in communications
• Stay well informed of existing and new fundraising legislation and adhere to the Fundraising Regulator’s Code of Practice, the Chartered Institute of Fundraising best practice as well as relevant fundraising and UK GDPR requirements

Person specification:

A highly organised, detail-oriented self-starter who engenders credibility and trust with stakeholders, you will have good working knowledge of corporate and trusts and foundations fundraising, and very strong written and verbal communication skills.

To be the right fit for this role, you do not need to have a degree. You do not need experience in international development fundraising, although this would be an advantage.

We are looking for someone who is:

• A knowledgeable, confident and experienced professional. We’re looking for a fundraiser who loves fundraising
• Committed to the values of Chance for Childhood, including ethical storytelling and shifting power to local communities
• Motivated by working towards a wide range of positive outcomes for children in vulnerable situations, including facilitating access to physiotherapy and rehabilitation for children with disabilities, educational opportunities for displaced and conflict-affected children, and developing sustainable livelihoods for families in poverty
• A natural planner, organised and efficient and capable of supporting the planning of Chance for Childhood’s trusts and foundations and corporate partnerships operations
• An excellent written communicator, experienced at writing persuasively and emotively
• A compelling verbal communicator, able to build rapport with donors and stakeholders at multiple levels
• A meticulous researcher; capable of finding and using relevant data to underpin credible proposals

Background

Every three minutes someone in the UK develops dementia; a progressive and complex condition that can be devastating for the whole family. One in two of us will be affected by dementia in our lifetime – either by caring for someone with the condition, developing it ourselves, or both.

Dementia UK is the specialist dementia nursing charity that is there for the whole family. Our specialist nurses, known as Admiral Nurses, provide free, expert advice, support and understanding to help families care for their loved one. Every day, Admiral Nurses help families up and down the country to have the best life possible for as long as possible.

Purpose of the job/About the role

This is an exciting opportunity to join the Business Development Team at Dementia UK, where you’ll play a vital role in managing and expanding Admiral Nursing Services across health and social care settings throughout the UK.

As the Regional Account Manager, you will oversee a portfolio of both new and established Admiral Nurse services across various settings. Working closely with teams across Dementia UK, you will help implement, monitor, and quality-assure all services in line with our business processes. You will also collaborate with the Regional Development Leads and Area Business Development Manager, contributing to timely updates and reports on progress against action plans, the development of new services, and any services at risk, particularly within designated areas and restricted funding regions.

In addition, you will represent Dementia UK with key commissioners and stakeholders, influencing local dementia strategies and initiatives. Your efforts will ensure that Admiral Nursing remains a central part of local service design, supporting the overall delivery of Dementia UK’s strategy.

To succeed in this role, you will bring substantial experience in partnership development, account management, and project management. You will have a strong background in developing business cases, strategy development, and implementation, along with a focus on continuous quality improvement and innovation. Experience in the health and social care sector is essential, along with a solid understanding of government policies related to older people’s mental health, carers, and dementia.

Join us now and be part of a team dedicated to making a real difference in the lives of those affected by dementia.

Our Culture

In addition to a competitive salary and a generous benefits package, we truly value our people. It’s important for us to create a working environment that looks after our workforce to achieve their full potential. You will become part of a diverse and dedicated team who are supported to use and develop their skills. We recognise and value the key role you will play in delivering our strategic plans for the benefit of those living with dementia.

Our staff have a voice. Representatives from different roles and levels across the organisation positively contribute and lead on our working groups around health and wellbeing, menopause, and equality, diversity and inclusion.

Dementia UK is proud to welcome everyone, we aim for a truly inclusive culture with talented, diverse teams that represent a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, and skills. We celebrate differences and individuality and encourage everyone to join us and be their whole selves always.

We're looking for values-led, content-minded database-loving, marketplace enthusiast to join us at We Are In Beta as our School Service Provider Directory Manager.

Your role will be to build, manage and promote a community driven database of school service providers and organisations members of our 18,000+ community recommend to each other.

Why?

Finding and quality assuring providers on a limited budget in schools is hard. The database will help school leaders do just that so they can spend more time delivering the best education possible to their students.

About We Are In Beta.

We Are In Beta is an online community of 18,800+ school leaders and teachers which helps them share and learn how they get the best outcomes for their students.

We believe most of the solutions to schools’ problems are in schools already. Or at least, in the minds of the brilliant people who work in them.

Our job is to find them and share them widely, so nobody has to figure it out on their own.

Imagine a day when you can find someone - or something  - that can help solve any problem you’re facing, whenever you need it.

A day when every student has leaders and teachers who are equipped with the most successful strategies and networks to improve their education.

Join us to help us build that future for our schools.

We - schools - Are In Beta - always learning.
 

What do we do?

To work towards that future:

1. We research great practice so our members can discover it and be inspired by it.

2. We produce and share practical content with great schools through events, webinars, podcasts and resources - so they can learn from others’ successes (and the failures too).

3. We build communities of practice so colleagues can meet and grow together

Some stats we’re really proud of:

In just 4 years we’ve grown the online community to over 18,800 school leaders and teachers.

• 3,400 - MATs and schools we are connected to

• 2500+ resources have been shared by our members - if each one on average takes two hours produce - in reality it's probably more - that’s more than… 

• 3.1 years' worth of others’ work each and every one of our members can access just by being a part of the community

• 3,710 policies and resources from successful schools and MATs we have curated, analysed and shared.

• £1,500 - the amount we save a school each time they access the research they ask us to do for them.

• 870,000 hours - the number of hours it would have taken members to discover the insights we've shared with them had they done the research on their own in silos.

• £25 million - the amount it would have cost schools had they funded those research hours themselves 

• 1.5 million - the number of miles our members would have had to have travelled to meet our expert presenters in case study schools had our community not existed online.

• 8,500 people came to the National INSET Day in Dec 2020 when the government left schools with almost no time at all to plan an end of term INSET. 

We are just getting started. Join us to write the next chapter
