Are you an experienced writer with a talent for crafting stories that resonate deeply with high-value supporters? Do you have the project management experience to bring impactful content to life? Can you effectively illustrate an organisation's impact, inspiring a lasting commitment from philanthropic donors and corporate partners?

British Heart Foundation (BHF) is seeking a talented individual with copywriting, design, and project management skills to produce compelling fundraising propositions and bespoke communications for high-value supporters.

About the role

As High Value Communications Manager, you'll produce a range of written and designed materials for major donors, trusts, foundations, and corporate partners. You'll also work collaboratively across the BHF including with fundraisers, grant managers and health insight professionals to identify effective narratives and advise on funding opportunities. You'll write and design compelling cases for support as well as proposals, applications, updates, and donor impact reports.

High-value fundraising is growing rapidly at the BHF. Our teams are securing more and more six-figure donations from individuals, trusts, and foundations, winning high-profile corporate partnerships, opening new markets, and offering first-rate engagement opportunities for our supporters.

You'll join the team at an exciting and ambitious time, where we seek to accelerate high-value giving and generate transformational gifts for a range of ambitious research projects and flagship initiatives.

Working arrangements

This is a blended role, where your work will be dual located between your home and our London office.

At the BHF we believe in the power of being together, so our colleagues on blended contracts can expect to spend some time in their office, at least one day each week, on average.  The use of our office spaces is driven in part by your role and the activities you need to do. This may vary from time to time, so you will need to work in a flexible way to unlock your best work for our cause.

Do you want to join an organisation committed to addressing low literacy levels amongst people in prison?

Shannon Trust are delighted to be working with His Majesty’s Prison & Probation Service (HMPPS) to provide peer-led learning programmes at HMP Hollesley Bay. Working closely with the prison and their staff, people in prison, Shannon Trust volunteers and mentors, this post will lead the delivery and development of our prison-based reading and numeracy programme, maximising opportunities for people in prison to learn to read.

Ideally you will have some experience of prison settings underpinned by the ability to build relationships and personal qualities that include resilience, determination and a problem-solving approach. 

This role will be prison based. Employee benefits include a company contribution to pension scheme of up to 5%, 30 days holiday plus bank holidays, life insurance, paid volunteering days, discounts via Reward Gateway and an Employee Assistance Programme. The biggest benefit though is our culture – our people really want to work for the organisation.

‍We welcome job applications from people with lived experience of the criminal justice system and do not routinely ask for details of any criminal convictions. These roles do require prison security clearance, so we will need to ask for details of any relevant criminal convictions before an offer of employment is finalised.

‍Interviews are planned for: 1st May 2025

The Coalfields Regeneration Trust (CRT) is the only community wealth building charity dedicated to the regeneration of Britain’s coalfield communities. For over 25 years, the CRT has worked with communities to deliver a breadth of projects creating opportunities for people, strengthening the role of community organisations and identifying place based solutions responsive to the challenges still experienced in former coalmining towns and villages. To support delivery, the CRT has developed an innovative community wealth-building model generating sustainable income to deliver both social and economic value. Enabled by engaging key stakeholders, partners and, most importantly the communities, activities delivered are personalised to meet the needs of the people, the organisations and the place.

This is an exciting opportunity to make a real difference in some of Britain’s most disadvantaged communities. The Head of Operations (England) is a key member of the Senior Management Team and you will have strategic and operational management responsibility for the development of our programmes of work in England. Over four million people live in England’s coalfields, located in six regions (North East, North West, Yorkshire, East Midlands, West Midlands and Kent) and this role requires drive, determination and creativity to ensure our teams deliver and maximise the resources we have for the benefit of our communities.  You will work collaboratively with colleagues and create a shared collective responsibility for ensuring the CRT achieves its strategic missions and ambitious targets outlined in its new strategy 2024 to 2029 – Building Community Wealth.  By working as part of a team across the whole organisation, you will ensure there is a consistent approach to quality, branding and communication with key stakeholder groups.

The role is responsible to the Chief Executive and for contributing to the effective day-to-day running of the CRT, ensuring we demonstrate good governance and fulfil our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion. We are looking for a charismatic leader and communicator, adept at building productive relationships, committed to staff development and with the adaptability, resilience and strength to influence key stakeholders. You will lead the England Programmes Team, ensuring our community assets and resources are deployed to best effect, be experienced in driving change and identifying new opportunities, and have the capability to develop a good idea and see it through to delivery and completion.

We are looking for an exceptional candidate who is passionate about supporting people, shares our values and has the energy and enthusiasm to create new opportunities to build community wealth in the coalfields.
