About the People’s Theatre 

The People’s Theatre is a leading amateur theatre in England, one of the oldest and largest in the country. We produce 14 productions per year, attracting over 10,000 people to our building on the Coast Road.

We seek to enlist the help of a professional fundraiser, who is experienced in working with small charities, preferably within the arts sector in the North East.

• Attend appropriate external networking events in order to develop relationships leading to donations; 

• Write and prepare fundraising proposals, in collaboration with the theatre’s fundraising lead and management team; 

• Secure funding by approaching trusts, local businesses and individuals; 

• Undertake any reasonable duties, commensurate with the level of the post.

From coordinating healthy grant pipelines to representing NEON externally, you’ll bring order to the chaos with slick systems and a strategic birds-eye view. 

You’ll collaborate across teams—helping staff craft irresistible grant bids, uncover fresh funding opportunities, and dream up creative ways to bring in resources, like events or campaigns. You’ll also be our go-to for building strong funder relationships, representing NEON at key events, and making sure we stay compliant and budget-savvy. This role is perfect for someone who has a genuine passion for fundraising, and sees it as a crucial element of helping NEON achieve our mission. 

Join London's Child Poverty Charity to deliver life changing work to ensure every child in London is well prepared for life. The Childhood Trust works to change the landscape for children living in poverty. Since 2013 The Childhood Trust has raised £50m million through our matched fundraising campaigns that have enabled us to fund the delivery of projects across all London boroughs, engaging an estimated 300,000 children and young people annually. Our advocacy and research reach audiences in the millions to raise awareness of the impact of poverty on children and our volunteering programme transforms children’s lives through direct delivery.

The Childhood Trust’s volunteering programmes are a vital part of our work. Not only do they deliver direct support to children experiencing poverty in London, they help us to engage volunteers in making a real, tangible difference.

As the Project Officer for the Transforming Spaces programme, you will work closely with the rest of the team to manage our pipeline for families accessing support. You will attend site visits to scope projects and lead on the design and planning of the refurbishments. As someone with excellent relationship management skills, you’ll communicate effectively with both beneficiaries and our corporate partners to ensure the success of the programme. 

You will join our friendly, hybrid team and be passionate about our mission and vision. You will be someone who thrives in our small charity culture, which is collaborative, innovative and agile as well as having the ability to work autonomously and have an appetite for continuous improvement to ensure programmes and projects run smoothly and are executed to a high standard.  There will be opportunities also for growth and development within the role.
