A fantastic opportunity has opened up to lead and grow a well-established major donor programme.

The Restored Beacon Network is a national network of churches that provide a place of welcome and safety for those who have experienced domestic abuse. Beacon churches partner with us to receive training, guidance and resources so that they can effectively support survivors in their congregations and communities, shining a light in the darkness of domestic abuse and journeying with them on the road to recovery. 

The Restored Beacon Network manager will work with the CEO to grow and develop this important network of churches. You will meet and recruit new church partners and walk them through the journey to becoming a Restored Beacon and beyond. This will involve meeting with church leadership, assessing their readiness to become a Beacon, arranging a training schedule, and supporting Restored Beacon Co-ordinators. You'll care for our church partners, providing spiritual, emotional and practical support to them as they work at the front line of supporting survivors. Relationship management is a key part of this role, not only with each individual Restored Beacon coordinator but also in facilitating peer support across the network. 

JOB SUMMARY: 
Join LSE Students' Union as a Sports Coordinator and play a key role in developing and supporting sports clubs and the Athletics Union. You will empower student leaders, coordinate events and fixtures, and ensure a high-quality sports experience for all club members. If you’re passionate about sport and student engagement, we want to hear from you!

Who are we?

Part business, part charity, part membership body – students’ unions are all seriously fun places to work. They are organisations in their own right. Professionally run, but different. Professional teams support elected student leaders to make change, improve lives and fulfil potential; we help make it happen. Founded in 1897, LSE Students' Union is one of the oldest Students' Unions in the UK and is the representative and campaigning body for students at The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE). Like other Students' Unions, it also funds and facilitates student activities on campus, including 200+ societies, 40+ sports clubs through the Athletics Union (AU), the Media Group and Raising and Giving (RAG) charitable fundraising initiatives.

What's the Job?

LSESU is looking for a dynamic and proactive Sports Coordinator to join our Sports and Recreation team. As the primary point of contact, you will offer support and guidance to Sports Clubs and the Athletics Union (AU), empowering student leaders to create an outstanding experience for all members.
 

In this role, you’ll coordinate and develop Sports Clubs with a strong focus on inclusivity, health and safety, and the effective planning of fixtures, activities, and events. You’ll manage the logistics behind BUCS and LUSL fixtures, as well as plan and oversee Sports Club showcases, trips, and other major events.
 

You’ll work closely with both staff and student volunteers, contributing to the strategic and operational planning of the Sports and Recreation Team. Your role will directly impact the student experience at LSE, ensuring the smooth delivery of a wide range of student sport provisions, from facilitating impactful training for student leaders to overseeing the seamless execution of key events and sports fixtures.
 

Who are we looking for?

We’re looking for an enthusiastic and highly organised individual who is passionate about student sport and physical activity. You should be able to work independently, with excellent interpersonal and communication skills to engage a diverse range of audiences—from student volunteers to external partners.
 

To succeed in this role, you’ll need to demonstrate exceptional organisational skills, a methodical approach to administration, and the ability to solve problems creatively. While experience working with student-led sports clubs or societies, supporting volunteers, and a solid understanding of BUCS and LUSL fixtures is ideal, it’s not essential.
 

We’re looking for someone with a genuine passion for motivating others to be active, a strong work ethic, and a collaborative approach to working.
 

Why apply?

Because you’re excited by the challenge! The exact opposite of corporate, we’re progressive, daring and creative individuals working to make a difference in unconventional workplaces. Plus…

How do we recruit?

We want to ensure that all systems, policies and processes are free from bias or discrimination and are fair and accessible. Therefore, we ask that all candidates complete our application process by uploading the following three documents: 

 
 

• Part 1: CV – Outlining your skills and experience to date.
• Part 2: Supporting Statement – A one-page statement explaining your suitability for the role. This will be used to determine if you are shortlisted for an interview. Please do not include any personal information (e.g., name or date of birth). Use the attached job description and person specification to help with this. 
• Part 3: Equal Opportunities Monitoring and Contact Form – This includes personal information so we can contact you if you are shortlisted for an interview. It also allows us to gather and analyse demographic information about our applicants. This form will only be seen by HR and will not impact shortlisting. 

Application forms are formatted to ensure the equality monitoring data is removed before they are reviewed by the shortlisting panel. This process ensures that shortlisting is conducted fairly and consistently, giving all applicants an equal opportunity to demonstrate their abilities.

About Habitat for Humanity Great Britain

Habitat for Humanity Great Britain (Habitat GB) is part of the global Habitat for Humanity network fighting global poverty and homelessness. We believe that a decent home helps to permanently break the cycle of poverty and allows families to achieve strength, stability, and self-reliance.

Habitat GB has recently completed a strategic review, resulting in a new National Strategy and an organisational restructure, to ensure the charity is able to deliver the Strategy with impact, efficiently and effectively. This has included the integration of a subsidiary entity (GB Homes) into Habitat GB.  As a result, the Finance, Operations & Compliance team has been expanded to ensure the right capacity and capability for these crucial functions. 

Habitat’s turnover for the financial year ended 30 June 2023 was £3.0m with net assets of £2.5m: for the year ended 30 June 2024, it was £3.5m with assets of £2.1m.
