We manage 50/60 or so grant-giving funds for families, individuals, companies, and public sector bodies. We've given over £1m in grants each year to local charitable groups in the past 5 years and work hard to increase private philanthropy and funding for local needs.
The role is a significant one in the Community Foundation. It requires both strong organisational skills and great people skills. You will use a Salesforce-based CRM daily and will sometimes manage several grants programmes at once. You will also work with some donors, funders and charitable groups, making them feel valued and supported within budget and time constraints.
Our small, friendly, hardworking team meets every Monday in person then works at home at or our small offices as preferred, with external meetings as required. You'll have access to the national network of Community Foundations too.
Deadline for applications 9am Friday 21st March 2025. We currently plan first interviews to be held w/b 24th March 2025 or w/b 31st March 2025.
We are a place-based funder. A consistent presence in Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland, and access to personal transport, are important.
