To Apply

Please read the full Candidate Pack attached which contains the entire job description and person specification and submit a copy of your CV and a covering letter.

The deadline for applications is Tuesday 11 February 2025 at 23:59 UK time. We reserve the right to close the application process early if a successful candidate is found.

Please note: The post-holder must be UK-based. We are unable to provide employment sponsorship if required and unfortunately cannot progress applications without the required right to live and work in the UK on a permanent contract.

We are Zarach, the children’s bed charity, and we’re on a mission to end child bed poverty, giving children the opportunity to engage at school and break the cycle of poverty. 

In our nearly seven years as a registered charity, we’ve captured the hearts and attention of many individuals, community groups, businesses and funders who want to support us on our mission. We’ve also been given an incredible media platform from which we have raised awareness of child bed poverty at local, regional and national levels. This support and awareness has seen us deliver over 11,000 bed bundles to children to date!! 

With our wonderful Finance Officer heading off to pastures new, we’re now on the lookout for someone new to come and join us. 

As our ideal candidate you’ll live in proximity to our Leeds warehouse, meaning you can travel regularly to meet with the team. You’ll be someone who has good experience of the broad range of day-to-day financial admin and management activities that working in a small team brings and someone who enjoys the busyness and variety of this.

Alongside your finance-related skills and experience, we’ll be looking to see that you have a genuine care for our mission and, as such, are self-motivated to do a great job and be a values-led member of our team.

Ideally, you’ll have experience of financial admin and management in the charity sector, due to some of the specialities that come with this, such as Gift Aid claims and restricted and unrestricted funds control. But charity experience is not essential if you can demonstrate an appetite and track record for continual learning and development across your working life to date. 

To decide if you’d like to bring your skills and experience to bear in the pursuit of our mission, please have a look at the job description, our website and the coverage of us across social media. 

The Unity Project (TUP) supports people who are facing poverty and homelessness because their immigration status allows them ‘no recourse to public funds’ (NRPF). We are seeking an experienced and qualified immigration advisor to manage our specialist casework service. 

We believe NRPF should not exist and we are working to end it. Until then, we seek to minimise its impact by supporting people to make the ‘change of conditions’ (CoC) application to access public funds. We are a small organisation which has achieved national systemic change through the clear strategic focus of our casework. As the number of people affected by NRPF continues to grow, we are looking to take our casework service to the next level so that we can support more individual applicants and deepen our impact.

As Legal Casework Manager, you will oversee the casework process from start to finish, prioritising compassionate and effective support to applicants and ensuring we meet all regulatory requirements, while also holding a limited personal caseload. You will supervise our dedicated team in London, overseeing their professional development and personal wellbeing.  You will also focus on the strategic impact of our project, identifying opportunities for improvement internally, and working closely with our Strategic Casework Lead and external partners to achieve systems change through litigation and other channels.

Second Stage Interview

Wednesday 19th February

A unique Crown body, Greenwich Hospital supports the Royal Navy community by awarding grants to support education, welfare and acute need.  As a leading funder working to support the Royal Navy community, our funding and partnerships deliver positive change for those who need it and empower people to thrive.

The role: This is an exciting time to join Greenwich Hospital as we work through a significant change agenda. A fantastic opportunity has arisen for someone looking to develop their knowledge of grant systems and management and gain experience in grant making. As Grants and Data Coordinator you will ensure the quality of our grant making processes and provide support to the Benevolence and Welfare Grants Manager and the wider Charity team. As well as working closely with the Charity team, you will be liaising with relevant stakeholders such as grantee partners and applicants, our Database Manager and our Finance team. Experience of Blackbaud Grant Management System would be an advantage though not essential, although experience of a current CRM system is required.

This is a key role within the Greenwich Hospital Charity team and an opportunity to significantly contribute to our work.
