Equal Opportunities

We’re a national charity providing dementia support to a community that’s ethnically diverse, but we don’t reflect this in our senior leadership. This needs to change.

We need to ensure the voices around our table better reflect and understand the communities we exist to serve. We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds, particularly those from ethnically diverse communities who are traditionally underrepresented in the charity sector leadership roles.

We want everyone we work with, as a colleague, volunteer, supporter, or someone we support, to feel included and that they belong at Alzheimer's Society.

We are committed to building a diverse organisation that represents the communities we serve and ensuring inclusion in everything we do. During your recruitment process we want to make sure that you bring your whole self and be at your best.

Action Around Bethlehem Children with Disability (‘ABCD’) is a small but well-established charity. We are passionate about improving the lives of children with disabilities across Palestine regardless of faith, race or gender.

We are recruiting for the brand new role of Fundraising and Communications Officer. This is an important and exciting point in ABCD’s development, when we seek to develop our profile and supporter base, particularly among younger people in the UK. Over recent years we have been gradually extending the scope of our work in the refugee camps in the West Bank. As we grow, and the demand for our services grows, so have our ambitions to raise much needed funds.

We are looking for a creative and ambitious UK-based person who can effectively convey the life-changing impact of our work, raise the profile of the charity and motivate our growing supporter base to both donate and raise funds for the disadvantaged. You yourself will have the opportunity to grow in the role, as the role itself evolves and the needs of the charity expand over time.

This Engagement Lead role will sit within our Capacity Building and Standards (CB&S) function. The CB&S function aims to build the capacity of organisations and institutions to embed the processes, skills, structures and cultures needed for effective public engagement in decision making. This includes work in the public, private and third sectors. 

You will be a proven project leader looking to make your next move and develop your leadership and profile in this interesting and important area of public participation and deliberation. You will enjoy supporting others to develop and embed public participation in decision making, drawing on your own significant experience, for example in delivering deliberative and participatory programmes or designing and running training . You will need to be able to advocate well for the benefits of public engagement in decision making.

You will have an appetite to learn, with strong budget and project management skills. You will have the ability to build and maintain good relationships with a wide variety of people, including senior actors and decision makers in institutions, project partners, internal staff and people in our wider networks. You will be a strategic thinker, and you will be able to develop new areas of work, ideas and fundable projects that will help the CB&S function to deliver its strategic aims. 

The first major project that will play a significant part of your role will be the School for Everyday Democracy - a major project funded by the National Lottery UK Fund. The programme builds the power of people from all walks of life to come together to deliver common good in their communities, and across the country. We want to give participants the power, confidence, connections, skills and opportunities required to affect the things that matter most to them through participation, deliberation, community organising and collective care. You will be the programme and pedagogical lead - directing the strategy of the project, developing and delivering training content, managing governance, budgets and risk, and managing the wider programme team. 

This is a fantastic opportunity for an ambitious and self-driven professional who can contribute to high-profile projects in the charity sector and use their skills to support our training function as it grows.

Driven by our values and behaviours, we are a high-performing, forward-thinking and solution-focussed organisation. We value teamwork and actively seek other opinions to ensure we can deliver to the highest standard as well as commit to reflecting upon our work to ensure a continual improvement culture. We welcome applications from individuals who are inspired by our values and behaviours.

As we continue to grow and expand our training course offerings, we are entering an exciting new phase in our mission to support the professional development of immunologists and healthcare professionals. This role presents a unique opportunity to join our team and contribute to initiatives that make a real difference. You will play an integral role in developing the skills and knowledge of those in scientific research, medicine and veterinary medicine, empowering them to directly impact global health.
