Development Managers (x2)

Our client empowers people to create change in their communities and improve the lives of others

They support social entrepreneurs; people who tackle social problems by starting, scaling and sustaining organisations. They help them impact urgent issues, such as poverty, health, education and environment. Through their network of schools, they help more than 1,000 leaders of social change every year through courses, connections and support. They develop their impact, networks, business skills and emotional resourcefulness. Their learning approach focuses on peer-support and taking action and some of their programmes are accompanied by grant funding for participants. They welcome people from all backgrounds and their community blossoms with diverse connections.

They recently celebrated its 20 year anniversary and they are now ready for their next phase of impact, influence and growth.

They are recruiting for two development managers. One Development Manager will be based at their Central’s London offices in London Bridge with travel across the UK and one based at location within their Network or home-based with easy access to their Network.

This role will suit you if you are excited about the opportunity to have a significant impact on a long-established and well-respected organisation that operates on a global scale.

You will succeed in the role if you believe in the potential of social entrepreneurship to create social change, if you are ready to build exciting new partnerships that will diversify their income and support their long-term sustainability, if you are motivated to harness their global brand and advance their thought leadership role within the sector and beyond, and if you would enjoy being part of a fun but focused team who take their work seriously, but themselves lightly. This role will also suit you if you are inclusive in approach and attracted by the prospect of working as part of a collaborative international team to grow and develop the organisation.

There is an expectation that the successful candidate will be willing to adapt his/her working hours to suit the needs of the organisation. This will involve occasional evening and weekend work and travel within the UK especially where support is required by their Network.
