Grants Manager

Salary: £56,434 - £66,387 per annum pro rata
Location: Hybrid/Greater London House, London
Hours: 36 per week
Contract Type: Fixed Term Contract until March 2026

Are you passionate about supporting, empowering and enabling VCSE organisations through high-impact grant programmes?

We're recruiting a Grants Manager to join us on a fixed term basis. You'll work flexibly between home and our new iconic art deco Greater London House office.

Leading the delivery of Clarion Future's growing portfolio of multi-strand grant funds and non-financial capacity building programmes, you'll use best practices and innovative approaches to improve service quality and the programmes' impact.

Other responsibilities will include: -

• Ensure appropriate governance arrangements are in place and oversee budget setting, management and monitoring across multi-strand programmes.
• Lead on establishing improved portfolio data capture and reporting, including developing an internal quarterly data dashboard, scoping and introducing DEI data to monitor and inform a more equitable approach to our grant-making and exploring opportunities to engage with the 360 Giving platform.
• Develop a new approach to cross-functional quality assurance for all grant-making activities within Clarion Futures.

With experience and understanding of the voluntary sector and community issues, you'll be educated to a degree level and experienced in end-to-end grants and programme management.

You must also be highly computer literate and confident in all standard Microsoft packages and grant portals. Experience working in the voluntary sector would also be beneficial, but it is not essential.

If this sounds like an opportunity for you, please review the full role profile on our careers page before applying.

Closing Date: Thursday 5th December 2024 at midnight.

Interviews will take place on Thursday 12th and Friday 13th December 2024.

This is a hybrid role with a base location at our offices in Greater London House. Candidates will be expected to work from the office at least 1 day per week.

Occasional travel may be required, including attendance at your designated office base and occasional travel to other Clarion offices as and when required.

You must be eligible to work in the UK to apply for this vacancy; Clarion are not able to offer visa sponsorship. You are required to reside in England or Wales for the duration of your employment.

Diversity and Inclusion

We want Clarion to be a workplace where everyone feels valued, can be themselves and know they can reach their full potential. We embrace and celebrate our differences through various initiatives and support colleagues through a number of staff networks.

We're committed to building a strong, diverse workforce and making Clarion an inclusive place to work.
