About the role

The Head of Fundraising at InFocus is our senior fundraiser. They report to the Director of Income Generation and Business Development (IGBD) who has a varied portfolio that also includes marketing and communications, catering, charity retail, and strategic partnerships. This means that you will be part of a wider team (and all the support that comes with it), but will still have overall responsibility for setting the direction of our fundraising activity.
This appointment comes at a time when we need to consolidate our existing unrestricted fundraising activities and look towards preparing a substantial capital campaign to develop our site.
Our charity receives a large amount of statutory funding and has a relatively small pool of regular supporters and donors. It’s essential that the Head of Fundraising can take a strategic approach to growing income, but particularly through researching and writing quality applications to charitable trusts and foundations (which has typically made up a large part of our fundraising mix).
A Fundraising Relationship Officer is in post and is managed by the Head of Fundraising. They will need to be supported to make sure that we continue to grow our emerging individual, community and corporate fundraising streams. 

About you

You will have practical experience in trusts and foundations, and be prepared to step into a leadership role in a small but friendly team. You’ll need to be a confident communicator with donors and supporters, as well as a diverse staff team spread across our large campus at the edge of Exeter (and six charity retail stores).
You will be confident in balancing strategic planning with practical tasks (which will include preparing materials and applications to trusts and foundations).
You may already have leadership experience, or you may be stepping up into a more senior role for the first time. Either way, you will have the support of the Director IGBD, CEO and colleagues from across the InFocus team.

About the role

We have an exciting opportunity for a Training Manager to join the HR team on a full-time basis. This role will be responsible for leading and supporting in the delivery of our staff training programme, overseeing all our people development activities, and ensuring that our statutory training requirements are met.

As well as commissioning external training, we currently deliver a variety of online and face-to-face training in-house - First Aid, CPR, GDPR, Manual Handling, NAPPI (Non-Abusive Psychological and Physical Intervention) to name a few. Our largest cohort for training is our care and support staff in our college, residential houses, adult day service, and supported living houses. We also have to ensure effective training is delivered for our estates team, catering staff, office staff, and our leaders and managers.

This role works closely with the senior leadership team to ensure a good understanding of business needs and the different operational teams to help propose the right training solutions delivered in the most impactful and cost-effective way to drive forward our strategic goals.

About you

You may be a training manager or have been involved in planning or delivering effective training for your staff team. Training experience within a health and social care setting is desirable. You need to have an understanding of the breadth of training required by an organisation like InFocus across very different operational teams. You will need good organisation skills and be pragmatic in finding the most effective ways to meet our training needs within a tight budget! You will also need to be a creative, confident person with excellent presentation skills who takes pride in delivering interactive, first-class training, ensuring all participants have a positive experience. A great aspect of this role is that you will work with lots of different staff across the organisation such as managers, care staff, therapists, nurses, and teachers, so being a people person who is able to form strong working relationships at all levels and engage and motivate people is a must.

About us:

Street Child, one of the world’s fastest-growing international children’s charities, are searching for an impressive and experienced corporate partnerships, new business minded professional to play a key role in continuing the organisation's extraordinary growth - from a start-up, aiming to support 100 children into school in Sierra Leone under 15-years ago, to our current status operating in 20+ countries and having recently reached over one million children since our inception.

Corporate Partnerships constitutes a key strategic growth area and income stream for Street Child, especially of unrestricted/flexible funds - and is one we are committed to significantly developing as a key pilar of our plans for continued growth. Live major partners include the likes of Liberty Global plc, UBS, Accenture, Infosys and Boodles the jewellers - as well as 70+ other firms, supporting at different levels, ranging from niche outfits to household brands. For the past few years Street Child, in collaboration with corporate partners, has hosted events at Davos, the UN General Assembly, and at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona - exciting initiatives that provided fantastic platforms, that we are keen to build on, with the support of this role.

We believe we offer a compelling corporate partnership proposition - high-quality, innovative, data-driven programming that protect and educate children in some of the world’s toughest situations; leverage potential via UN, philanthropic and Government matching grants; superb, agile and highly responsive donor service, with strong ability and willingness to tailor solutions; outstanding communications; and an entrepreneurial, commercial ethos.

The role:

We believe Street Child has a huge opportunity to achieve even more growth in the Corporate Partnerships sector by diversifying our coverage and relationships into new industries and growth markets. The New Business Manager role will play a key role in leading our New Business activity outside of our existing portfolio. Reporting to our recently appointed Senior Manager for Partnership and New Business, your role will involve:

1. Core New Business activity: Researching and development of prospect lists for priority industries to implement New Business campaigns capable of securing multi-year high value partnerships. Responsibility for building Street Child’s network of corporate relationships and growing pipeline of corporate partnership opportunities.

2. Partnership and proposition development: Working closely with our colleagues in the Corporate Partnerships and Global Programme Funding teams to develop engaging and impactful partnership plans and project propositions, focusing on priority countries and programmes to support Street Child’s strategy and mission.

3. Corporate engagement with events: Utilising the portfolio of events Street Child has across the year to engage and steward corporate relationships, including Street Child owned events and external events including the World Economic Forum and UN General Assembly.

4. Supporting on cross-organisational fundraising activations: Leading on new corporate engagement activities, including new fundraising and sponsorship activations, to support cross-organisational initiatives including our Spring Gala, annual Back to School Campaign and other key milestones throughout the year.

Key activities in this role:

• Development of New Business engagement plans – identifying, researching, engaging and cultivating new corporate prospects and relationships;
• Implementing ambitious New Business campaigns to target priority industries, including the oversight of prospecting and marketing mapping activity;
• Management of new business pipeline and prospect lists, including use and maintenance of corporate prospects data on CRM;
• Close collaboration with Partnership Development and Account Management teams to promote best practice corporate donor stewardship and partnership delivery;
• Active networking and attending various international events to maximise New Business opportunities;
• Consistent, proactive New Business activity via Street Child networks and cold approaches;
• Searching for suitable open corporate partnership opportunities/calls to apply to and working with colleagues to submit high quality applications;
• Supporting our corporate advocacy events, including inviting new corporate attendees for Street Child events - and working with colleagues to help plan/strategise Street Child presence as appropriate (including Davos, UNGA);
• Working with colleagues to develop our corporate propositions – both fundraising products and exciting, innovative new project proposals alongside our Programme Funding teams.

Key qualities:

• Highly credible, with strong all-round communication skills;
• Comfortable and excited about networking at high profile events including the World Economic Forum in Davos;
• New Business mentality but with a highly strategic mind and passion for creating genuine value-exchange partnerships between the NGO and private sector;
• Personable, tenacious, resilient, imaginative, ambitious;
• Team-worker;
• Flexible and agile – you will enjoy working in a fast-paced, fluid working environment focused on growth;
• Strong corporate fundraising and/or corporate background (preferably in sales/marketing);
• This is an exciting role in a small team with hugely ambitious and exciting global growth plans in the coming years. This role will be at the heart of our rapidly growing organisation making a great difference to the lives of children living in the world’s lowest resource and most dangerous humanitarian contexts. You will have huge support - but also a lot of scope to make the role your own and choose your path to impact. The opportunity here for impact, and career progression, is vast.

We will consider candidates with two types of backgrounds:

1. Proven superb, corporate fundraising track-records, ideally in the international development/humanitarian sector (or otherwise demonstrating strong development/humanitarian knowledge and clear passion for the sector); &/or

2. A compelling, commercial background - coupled with a super clear desire to use your skills and experience in the humanitarian/development space, and the ability to rapidly build relevant technical skills and knowledge.

A prior background in international development/humanitarian is preferred but is not essential. A strong commitment to Street Child's cause is essential.

The role is envisaged as UK-based but is global in scope. A willingness to travel is expected. The ideal candidate would work full-time; and physically in our City of London office for a minimum 3 days of the week – with some flexibility considered for outstanding candidates.
