Better Cotton makes cotton better for the farmers who produce it and for all those who have a stake in the future of the cotton industry. Today almost a quarter of the world’s cotton is produced under the Better Cotton Standard, and 2.2million cotton farmers have been trained in sustainable farming practices and are licensed to grow Better Cotton. A lot of this work is funded by the brilliant efforts of the fundraising and development team, and Prospectus is pleased to be partnering with them to recruit a new Fundraising and Partnerships Coordinator – Social Impact.
The Coordinator will drive revenue in support of ongoing success and growth of Better Cotton globally. The role will be responsible for growing income from institutional partners, corporates, and philanthropists and will line manage a Fundraising and Partnerships Officer too. In collaboration with the Programme Funding Manager and Director of Development, you will hyper-focus on social impact funding and will work closely with relevant thematic leads and country teams for proposal design, coordination and reporting of funded projects.
The selected candidate will have effective fundraising management and planning skills and excellent writing skills that have resulted in successful proposals. You will have a good understanding of the current donor landscape and fundraising environment – ideally in social impact – and will have good experience in project design with a facilitative approach to meet both farmer needs and donor expectations.

About the Organisation
The Challenging Behaviour Foundation was set up in 1997 by Vivien Cooper OBE, the parent of a child with severe learning disabilities who displayed a range of challenging behaviours. At the time, there was no support for families like Viv’s and no adequate provision to support her son – other than almost three hundred miles away!
Crucially, families remain at the heart of the organisations work. It is their experiences that shape everything; from the direct support provided through to the family support service, to the training delivered forfamilies and professionals, through to the rich evidence base the team bring from working with families to challenge the system and to “speak truth to power”.
As an equal opportunity employer, the organisation would particularly welcome applications from people with an ethnic minority background or those with a disability, as they are currently underrepresented in the workforce.
