Our commitment to Equality, Diversity & Inclusion:
We are happy to consider any reasonable adjustments that candidates may need during the recruitment process and you will be asked whether you require any adjustments if shortlisted for interview. We also make reasonable adjustments on the job, where required.
We are committed to Equality, Diversity & Inclusion in all that we do and welcome applications from all sections of the community. Intersectionality is important to us and we particularly welcome applications from ethnically diverse communities, LGBTQIA+ candidates and disabled candidates because we are committed to increasing the representation of these groups at Family Action.

We offer a guaranteed interview scheme for disabled applicants and will reimburse your travel cost if you attend an in person interview.

Turn2us is a national charity tackling poverty and the structural causes of poverty. We work with co-producers and partners to provide people in financial crisis with the means and agency to get back on their feet, build resilience, move forward with their lives and thrive.
As an equal opportunities’ employer, we are committed to equality, inclusion and diversity and the value people from different backgrounds bring to a team. If like us you believe everyone has the right to have enough to live on, and you are ambitious about eradicating poverty, join us and build your career with a charity dedicated to ensuring dignity and equity for all.
This is a varied and interesting role working with the National Grants Team and colleagues across the Programmes & Partnerships Directorate. We awarded over £2.4m of grants in 2023-24, supporting individuals and families experiencing financial insecurity. This role is about helping the team to operate efficiently, use our resources effectively and facilitating opportunities so we can listen, learn and improve using the insights we gather from our data, partnerships and people with lived experience.
This role requires a proactive, organised, and collaborative person with good attention to detail. We’re looking for someone who is committed to supporting impactful grant-making processes and fostering strong relationships with a wide range of stakeholders.

We offer flexible working patterns, both in terms of hours and remote working. Please note that all employees are required to work from the office a minimum of 4 days a month.
Some roles may be required to be in the office more often than others and this will be agreed with the hiring manager upon starting at Turn2us. This can be removed and is always something discussed at a later date.

As part of the ActionAid Federation, we work with women and girls, our partners, and dedicated staff in 43 countries to end violence and fight poverty so that all women, everywhere, can create the future they want.
Are you a keen advocate of women and girls’ rights in emergencies?
Do you have proven experience of setting up large grants, grant management and working closely with international team members and programmatic specialists to manage high value income?
Skilled at presenting complex project information in a clear and engaging way?
Then we'd love to hear from you!
We are looking for a passionate and experienced Proposals and Grants Specialist who is committed to feminist principles and safeguarding, and has a strong understanding of monitoring and evaluation. As a feminist organisation, we are dedicated to working towards the rights of women and girls and promoting equality, diversity, and inclusion. We are also committed to becoming an antiracist, decolonised INGO. As a Proposals and Grants Specialist, you will play a vital role in helping us achieve our vision and mission.
We are looking for someone who is passionate about making a difference and has a proven track record in writing successful high value fundraising proposals. You will have experience in securing significant donations from major donors, charitable trusts, and/or corporate donors. Your ability to translate technical programme information into compelling supporter communications for different audiences will be crucial in this role.
As the Proposal Writer and Grant Specialist, your role will be central in securing income from high value donors (worth £100K+ per annum), that fund some of our most critical work. This will involve developing and writing high quality proposals, concept notes and reports in line with our organisational priorities. As part of our internally-focussed Strategic Funding Team you will work closely with colleagues across our federation to ensure we are presenting the highest priority and most strategic work to our donors. This will involve setting up new projects, establishing log frames, monitoring and evaluation frameworks and grant management, reporting schedules, and keeping donor-facing account managers informed on progress.
In this role, you will have the opportunity to improve team practices, support the design and roll out of templates and training, and embed grant management systems. You will also be responsible for encouraging standardisation across teams in AAUK, managing requests and communications to colleagues in Federation Member countries, and ensuring donor communications systems and processes are up to date. Other responsibilities include sharing best practices, writing compelling human interest stories, managing a personal portfolio of restricted grants, and delivering capacity building workshops. If you have experience in developing proposals, a good understanding of international development, and strong communication skills, we encourage you to apply today!
The ability to travel internationally will be required for this role.
Due to the nature of this role, the successful candidate will be asked to participate in criminal records checks at the point of offer.
