Job Introduction

The successful applicant will play a significant role in the London and South East of England area to meet the aims of the charity. You will be managing a geographical area and grant portfolio, working with local and national stakeholders to facilitate the development and delivery of solutions for change for children and young people.

BBC Children in Need exists to make a positive difference to the lives of disadvantaged children and young people across the UK. This role supports our mission to focus on funding inspiring ideas that provide effective and sustainable positive change for disadvantaged children and young people in the UK.

Reporting into the Impact Manager, the Impact Officer will be the first point of contact for existing and newly funded organisations and will manage a grant portfolio and geographical patch.

You will be integral to the grant making process and will provide support for these processes within the wider Impact Team.

The successful candidate will have experience in grant making, working within the voluntary sector, or children and young people spheres. You will have an understanding of the current voluntary and statutory sectors, across the East of England.

Your excellent relationship building and interpersonal skills will allow you to communicate appropriately with people of all types and at all levels. The ability to organise a large workload and to work quickly but calmly to tight deadlines is critical.

  • Experience of consulting and engaging with children and young people, either through the delivery of frontline services or grant making
  • Experience of monitoring and evaluation and understanding the role of data in decision making.
Are you the right candidate?
  • Evidence of working with the voluntary sector
  • Evidence of grant making experience.
  • A demonstrable understanding of the current voluntary and statutory sectors.
  • Excellent relationship building, communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Ability to organise and prioritise workload, with the ability to work quickly and effectively to tight deadlines.
