Our ambitious and creative team has been working hard over the last year to expand our work to help more people in need across Sussex and Surrey. FareShare is the UK’s biggest surplus food charity and today we find ourselves on the front line of an envornmental and socio economic crisis. As our work grows, so does our need for strong financial management. 

We are looking for a talented, passionate person to join our Senior Leadership Team to oversee our finance operations. With more growth planned over the next 2 years we want to find someone who has the experience to oversee the day to day finances of a large regional charity and to lead and nurture our finance staff. This role will provide a stable platform for growth. 

Using your can-do attitude, mixed with excellent communication, organisational and administration skills, you’ll focus on supporting our CEO and Trustees across our sites. The role includes tasks such as producing monthly management accounts, oversight of payroll, management of our internal financial controls, Year End reporting preparation and leading our small team in the general smooth running of finances. This is a part-time role with the potential to increase as we expand. 

We have a number of Youth Development Lead positions we will be assessing at our assessment centre on the 29th October 2024. Please note you must be available to attend on that day. If you would like to be considered for more than one specialism, please indicate your preference on your application in the answer box provided. You can find out more about each role specialism and the relevant job description by viewing the adverts on our Careers site, however, you will not be required to submit multiple applications - we will consider all candidates for any suitable role on the day.

Would you like to be part of the coolest team in town, collaborating with our Outreach and Marketing legends and our friendly customer service team here at The Prince’s Trust? Together, we'll ensure that our young people get onboarded and engaged in our programmes safely and with style.

Dive deep to uncover any barriers that stand in their way, helping to remove those barriers to enable them to shine and propelling them on their journey towards amazing outcomes. Responsible for a group of young people, for one-on-one support and guidance or just gently pointing them in the right direction. You'll be on a mission to assist with travel expenses and find clever ways to handle their other commitments. You'll champion their support and learning needs with employers, and you'll be the ultimate liaison, working alongside partners like the job centre to ensure that nothing stands in the way of their success!

You’ll also be the guiding light for our delivery partners and service providers as we want them to deliver the best experience and outcomes for our young people. High-fives all around! Roll up your sleeves and deliver employability sessions directly to our incredible young people. You'll also help our Delivery Partners and volunteers do the same, both in person and virtually through our trusty MS Teams. When we're doing things face-to-face, you’ll need to hit the road and be there in person to help with programme delivery or programme visits to make sure all is running as smoothly as possible.

And if that’s not enough to keep you busy, you’ll also be keeping meticulous records of information and data on our young people, volunteers, and partners. It's all about making sure every step of their journey is accurately reflected in our systems so that it complies with our funding contracts.

We are a massive advocate of Equality, Diversity and Inclusion so it would be amazing if you could lead the charge in creating an environment where everyone feels seen, by implementing a local action plan that supports our big-picture EDI goals. Let's make positive change happen!

Be ready for anything and everything. Alongside all these fantastic responsibilities, you might find yourself wearing different hats and rocking them like a pro, this could even include deputising when the need arises.

Are you an able Administrator with a heart to see positive change in the lives of people who are trying to make a new start in the community after prison? Do you have good all-round IT and communication skills, and enjoy working in a team?

South West Community Chaplaincy (SWCC) aims to provide effective care and community support for people as they leave prison and re-integrate back into their local area, within the counties of Devon, Cornwall and western Somerset.  This incudes mentoring, practical support and signposting to assist the integration of ex-prisoners into their communities, in collaboration with other professionals.

We are seeking a part-time Project Support Administrator (up to 15 hours per week).  The post-holder will be based at our Exeter office, although there is some scope for partial homeworking, subject to agreement.

We are looking for someone who is self-motivated, with previous administrative experience and good IT skills (Microsoft Word, Excel Outlook etc.), including a sound grasp of data entry (Microsoft Azure, Teams).  Excellent interpersonal skills are essential, as is the ability to be an effective communicator, conveying information efficiently in writing, face-to-face and by phone. 

The post-holder will have a pastoral heart and concern for the wellbeing of people, will be in sympathy with the faith ethos and values of the charity, and be able to promote an inclusive environment where people of all faiths, and people of none, can work together for the transformation of lives and communities.
