Data Protection Information for Applicants 

More information about the processing of your personal data during your application at ProVeg INT can be found on our website, via the job posting.

We are Zarach, the children’s bed charity, and we’re on a mission to end child bed poverty, giving children the opportunity to engage at school and break the cycle of poverty. 

In our nearly seven years as a registered charity, we’ve captured the hearts and attention of many individuals, community groups, businesses and funders who want to support us on our mission. We’ve also been given an incredible media platform from which we have raised awareness of child bed poverty at local, regional and national levels. This support and awareness has seen us deliver over 11,000 bed bundles to children to date!! 

With our wonderful Finance Officer heading off to pastures new, we’re now on the lookout for someone new to come and join us. 

As our ideal candidate you’ll live in proximity to our Leeds warehouse, meaning you can travel regularly to meet with the team. You’ll be someone who has good experience of the broad range of day-to-day financial admin and management activities that working in a small team brings and someone who enjoys the busyness and variety of this.

Alongside your finance-related skills and experience, we’ll be looking to see that you have a genuine care for our mission and, as such, are self-motivated to do a great job and be a values-led member of our team.

Ideally, you’ll have experience of financial admin and management in the charity sector, due to some of the specialities that come with this, such as Gift Aid claims and restricted and unrestricted funds control. But charity experience is not essential if you can demonstrate an appetite and track record for continual learning and development across your working life to date. 

To decide if you’d like to bring your skills and experience to bear in the pursuit of our mission, please have a look at the job description, our website and the coverage of us across social media. 

York Minster Fund

Director

Salary: Up to £92,500pa pro rata. Full or part time working patterns will be considered.

Location: York

Closing Date: 17:00 on Monday 10th March 2025

The York Minster Fund has worked for nearly sixty years as the lead fundraising partner to York Minster, providing the cathedral with the financial support it requires for ongoing conservation and restoration, as well as the cathedral’s work in music, learning and education. In recent years, the York Minster Fund has played a critical role in the delivery of the Minster’s Centre of Excellence for heritage skills, the restoration of large portions of the Minister’s medieval windows and, looking ahead, will be a key partner in the ambitious sustainability agenda for the Minster and wider precinct. With the retirement of our current Director after nine years in post, an opportunity now arises to continue this critical work.

As Director of the York Minster Fund, you will be responsible for the effective management of the organisation, its administration, its people and its relationships. You will oversee the strategic development and governance of the Fund, working in close partnership with the Board of Trustees, Chapter and Dean of York, and the staff teams to ensure that the Fund continues to successfully contribute to the sustainability of York Minster.

You will be an experienced leader comfortable operating in complex environments, with a track record of leading and supporting boards in the development and delivery of strategy. Your exceptional interpersonal skills will enable you to build impactful relations with stakeholders at all levels and be the cornerstone of a collaborative, empowering style. You will bring experience of driving change and transformation in organisations, ensuring that they adapt and develop to deliver sustainable success. We are genuinely open minded as to your background as we seek a broad set of skills for this unique role but, wherever you come from, you will bring vision, innovation and the ability to drive change in a way that respects the traditions and values of York Minster. You will be a proven leader with demonstrable financial and commercial acumen, outstanding relationship building skills across diverse stakeholders and able to provide assurance and effect change at board level.

This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to the ongoing development of a 1,400 year old institution and one of the most significant cultural, spiritual and heritage sites in the North of England. For further information on this exciting opportunity, please click on Apply.

We want our commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion for all to be reflected in the composition of our staff. We are particularly keen to receive applications from candidates from communities currently underrepresented at senior levels in the cathedral.
