Vacancy Details
Clan Cancer Support is looking for an enthusiastic and experienced Trusts & Grants Writer to join our Income Generation team and help us raise the vital funds needed to support local people impacted by cancer.
Working closely with the Head of Income Generation, you’ll play a key role in securing income from charitable trusts and foundations. You’ll manage the full grant lifecycle – from researching new funding opportunities and writing compelling applications, through to reporting on outcomes and developing strong, lasting relationships with funders.
You’ll also support the management of Clan’s legacy income stream, working alongside the Finance team and liaising with solicitors and executors to ensure accurate records and excellent stewardship.

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.
