Job Details

The Henry Smith Charity is one of the largest grant making foundations in the UK distributing around £30m of grants each year. It aims to bring about lasting change to people's lives, helping them to benefit from and contribute to society, and achieves this by funding organisations that work with people to reduce social and economic disadvantage.

We are delighted to be recruiting for a Grants Manager (one year maternity cover) to join their current team of six. The post holder will work closely with the Head of Grants, Grants Managers and the wider organisation to deliver the grants assessment process. The job holder will manage a portfolio of grants which include family services, domestic and sexual violence and abuse, child sexual exploitation, sex work and trafficking. The Charity is moving in the direction of increased focus on monitoring and evaluation and this post would be tasked with maximising learning in designated areas, contributing to ongoing knowledge development and integrating it into grants management processes moving forward.

The successful candidate will ideally have a proven track record of managing a portfolio of grants/contracts/SLAs or similar as well as considerable administration and database (ideally GIFTS) experience in the charity sector. However experience of working in an operating charity focusing on family services, or domestic and sexual violence and abuse would also be very desirable. Highly organised and dedicated, this person will possess excellent attention to detail and outstanding written and verbal communication skills. Strong analytical skills, both quantitative and qualitative, are essential coupled with a genuine empathy with the voluntary sector. This role represents an excellent opportunity to work in an established and progressive grant making organisation.

To find out more about this role, please apply with a Word format version of your CV; cover letters are not required at this stage. A full job description will be provided to candidates shortlisted by Prospectus.
