General Manager - SmartGiving
We're looking for an ambitious General Manager to lead SmartGiving's growth and shape its future.
This is a genuine opportunity to build on a well-established platform, with business development at its heart. You'll take ownership of commercial growth across individual, corporate and charity clients, winning new business and building lasting relationships, alongside the technology behind the platform, day-to-day operations and a small team. It's a chance to develop the proposition and make your mark on an ambitious business with plenty of room to grow.
SmartGiving is a subsidiary of JNF UK. We help UK donors give more effectively, bringing online and offline giving, automatic Gift Aid and payroll giving together in one place.

Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
