Job description

The Actors’ Benevolent Fund supports professional actors and stage managers in times of need, and in 2023 we spent over £2.1M on charitable support. Our bold new Acting for Impact strategy seeks to increase the charity’s reach and impact within the performing arts community, helping many more people and expanding the range of support to result in meaningful and sustainable change. It is an exciting time to be joining the charity, with a new Board of Trustees and the opportunity to make a real difference to a community dedicated to bringing so much meaning and inspiration to others.

This Grants and Services Officer post will be key to supporting the charity to achieve those ambitions. You will work directly with our beneficiaries to deliver support, including grantmaking and developing support networks for individuals through signposting and cross-agency working. Alongside this, you will lead on the development of digital tools and resources for our community, contribute to research and evaluation projects to inform that development, and develop referral routes and relationships with other organisations.

We are looking for someone with experience of grantmaking, knowledge of the state benefits system and able to develop support packages for clients which are responsive to individual needs. Activities also include service design, development and project management. Working as part of a small, friendly team you will need to be able to take an adaptable approach to manage competing priorities. You will have excellent interpersonal skills, with the ability to build professional relationships with clients, and work collaboratively with colleagues internally and externally.

This role is based at our office in central London, with some flexible working. To apply, please send an up-to-date CV and covering letter specifying how you meet the points contained within the person specification.

The application deadline is midnight on Monday 2nd December, and interviews will be held on Wednesday 11th December at our offices in Adam Street, central London.
