The Tudor Trust is a grant-making organisation with a long-standing commitment to funding smaller, grassroots organisations. With an endowment of around £220m, our annual commitment to grants has averaged £20 million. 

We are currently in a period of transition from a family foundation to one that is independently led by a newly formed board of trustees.  At the same time, we are rebuilding our staffing structure in line with an emerging strategy that has greater emphasis on aligning our investments to building thriving communities.  We want to take a systems thinking approach that centres racial justice in all our work.

As we continue on our transformative journey, an opportunity has arisen to join the Tudor Trust as the Head of Finance and Operations. You will provide direction to our financial strategy and management of the organisation, ensuring sustainable growth and financial health.

You will work closely with the chief executive and board of trustees.  This includes acting as Company Secretary and working particularly closely with trustees and sub-committees focused on all aspects of investment and finance. 

In line with our emerging strategy, there will also be opportunities to support our thinking on impact and social investments, and alternative models to providing social loans and capital grants, alongside our grantmaking.

You will be supervising a finance consultant who provides additional support with the day-to-day financial recording and monthly management accounts.
