About the role
We are looking for a Manager in the East of England, for one year while the permanent post holder takes an internal development opportunity. You will join our Charity Development and Funding directorate to help us to meet our mission to partner with small and local charities, people and communities working towards a more just and compassionate society.
You will be the face of the Foundation in the area, able to build strong and trusting relationships and be an advocate for small and local charities across the patch. You will have a good understanding of the operating environment in the East of England and well-established networks across the patch. You will support charity partners to become more resilient and stronger so that they can thrive beyond the period of their relationship with us. You will do this by building trusted relationships with organisations to support them in identifying their most pressing organisational challenges; and help them overcome the challenges by building the knowledge, skills and capabilities of staff and trustees. You will work with charities, CICs, and partnerships to identify the most appropriate form of support to respond to the identified priorities. Further information about LBFEW and our approach to supporting charity partners can be found on our website Development.
You will be responsible for building and maintaining strong relationships with stakeholders including connecting with networks to identify and optimise collaborative learning and sharing practice. The postholder will also play a pivotal role in sharing learning, intelligence, and insights to ensure the Foundations’ strategy development, delivery and relationship with the Lloyds Banking Group considers regional needs and the operating contexts of our funded partners.
If you have experience working with or in the voluntary, community or social enterprise sector and are creative, adaptable, resilient, flexible in your approach, keen to learn and hungry for change – then this could be the role for you!
The post holder will be based in the East of England (Hertfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Norfolk, Suffolk, or Essex).
