Following the recent appointment of a new CEO, Citizen's Advice has identified the need for a centralised business development function to maximise opportunities with trusts, foundations and corporate partners. This is a newly-created role with scope for autonomy and huge potential to develop new relationships and explore fresh opportunities.

Working closely with the new CEO and senior leadership team, you'll develop an organisational fundraising strategy, identify new business and funding opportunities, and implement a programme of donor development and corporate sponsorship.

You can expect to be given freedom to shape the role to suit your unique strengths and skills, working towards the following goals and ambitions:

You have substantial experience of working in a supported housing or general needs housing management environment and a good understanding of mental health, domestic violence, drug and alcohol issues. You’d also like to be part of an organisation that counts on the professionalism, insight, expertise and passion of its staff to inspire individual recovery for the people they work with. Welcome to Richmond Fellowship as a Housing Management Officer.

We know that recovery can look and feel very different to each and every one of us. But we also know that if we provide the right support, at the right time, we can inspire recovery nationwide and that recovery is possible for everyone. That’s where you come in.

Join us as a Housing Management Officer and you could soon be providing vital support to our Housing Manager Lead, as together you help us plan and organise all regulatory housing management activities. We’ll also rely on you to lead on day-to-day tenancy management, work with Area and Service Managers to support housing related services and ensure the compliance of housing related activities. Conducting regular inspections on properties, overseeing void reporting and assisting with the delivery of relevant data and analysis of voids – these are just some aspects of this interesting and varied role that’s all about delivering good quality homes and services to our tenants and residents.

To succeed, you’ll need Chartered Institute of Housing (CIH) Level 3 Certified Practitioner status (or equivalent) and an excellent understanding of  void management, bad debt and maximising income, plus the relevant regulatory requirements.

You’ll also need experience of working in a customer-focused environment or service and an understanding of the issues associated with individuals who may have complex support needs. Comfortable working in partnership with other key agencies and local communities, you’re also adept at identifying and monitoring key compliance in respect of health & safety requirements relating to properties and tenants. What’s more, you’re well organised, great at negotiating and developing effective working relationships with a variety of stakeholders and happy to provide housing training to colleagues.

In return for your skills and enthusiasm, this role comes with some really great benefits and excellent training and development opportunities.

Gifts in wills are an important income stream for the charity, last year raising over £2M towards our fundraised income, despite limited promotion in this area.

• Applying a strategic approach to legacy fundraising, producing annual fundraising plans, and contributing to longer term strategic growth of legacy income for the charity.
• As the programme grows there will likely be opportunities to develop and deliver legacy cultivation and stewardship events, alongside a digital and offline communication plan - making the most of existing events in the calendar as well as working with colleagues in the major giving team to explore other opportunities to engage those on the legacy pipeline in person.

This position would ideally suit a candidate with;

• A strong track record of legacy fundraising, with a broad knowledge of the gifts in wills marketplace and an ability to champion legacies
• Excellent experience and knowledge of relationship fundraising, marketing, cultivation and stewardship techniques needed for legacy fundraising
