Thank you for considering this fantastic opportunity to join The Avenues Youth Project as our Fundraising Manager with responsibility for writing applications to Trusts and Foundations. This is a part-time position (4 day/week) with full flexibility for home working.
The Avenues is an exceptional West London youth centre that guides disadvantaged children and young people to explore and develop new skills, connect with their peers and our trusted staff, and find their confidence. The Avenues offers free-to-access fun and meaningful after-school, weekend and holiday activities led by trained youth workers. Our excellent facilities include training kitchen, music recording studio, podcasting studio, arts and crafts room, sports hall and classrooms.
With secured blue-chip funders and a host of smaller funders, a significant amount of groundwork has been laid, including a pipeline of multi-year grants securing some activities to 2026 and beyond. Our challenge is to maintain this revenue to create a stable future, by strengthening our relationships with existing funders and introducing new ones. We are looking for someone who not only shares our determination to give all young people a fair chance but has the experience, skills and personality to help us achieve our goals, someone who enjoys the thrill of achieving funding success.
Educated to degree level or higher, you will be a hard-working, self-starter with excellent writing skills with the ability to write concise and creative bids. Ideally, you will have 3+ years’ proven track record in a fundraising position, with a focus on trusts/foundations and public sector income streams.

You have a high standard of software literacy (Office software, Mailchimp and internet), excellent telephone manner and an ability to communicate effectively with a range of callers.
The role offers you the chance to work for a highly respected charity, with a great team of staff, while helping make meaningful change. The Fundraising Manager is a very well respected position in our organisation and you'll work closely with the Chief Executive and the rest of the team.
