About the role
The Kensington + Chelsea Foundation is an independent local charity which was founded in 2008 and is now in an exciting phase of growth.

As the Community Engagement & Grants Manager, you will play a vital role in our mission by managing grants specifically focused on Children and Young People. You will work collaboratively with your counterpart in overseeing our Skills & Employment and Community Spirit Funds. Your expertise will help foster and maintain strong relationships with local voluntary organisations, ensuring our grants align with community needs and priorities.
