About the Role
This is a rare opportunity to help shape the future of one of London's oldest and most distinctive place-based charities. Working directly with the Chief Executive and Trustees, the role has significant influence over the Charity's strategic direction, grant making, partnerships, communications, and wider community work.
Much more than a traditional grant-making role, it combines strategic leadership with operational delivery, providing the opportunity to strengthen local organisations, develop new initiatives, build partnerships, and help ensure the Charity responds effectively to changing community needs.
