**Job summary**:

- We are recruiting a permanent part-time Funding Officer working across Telford and North Shropshire. You’ll be part of a team of 5, led by a Funding Manager and working alongside 3 other Funding Officers (1 full-time and 2 part-time), as part of The Shires patch (Worcestershire, Herefordshire, Shropshire and Telford) within a larger Midlands team.**Job description**:
Ideally you will live in or near to Telford and North Shropshire or have excellent knowledge of the county. This role is classed as mobile working which means you will be expected to work from and visit several locations across the area, including your home. The ability to drive and have access to a vehicle is therefore beneficial, although not essential.

Being responsible for supporting local people and communities, you will have a strong understanding of our vision, our commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion and our funding products. You will also need to support our stakeholders, helping them to make connections that will help them achieve their goals.

Being responsible for a pipeline of projects you will need to understand and respond to the different needs of our customers by providing advice and considered feedback, and be willing to have challenging but constructive conversations.

You will also ensure that both grant management and assessment play an effective part in contributing to the Fund’s knowledge and learning as a grant maker. You will manage your own caseload, liaise with grant recipients, undertake project visits, identify and manage risk, support organisations to deliver their projects and measure their impact.

You will also need to work within the Fund’s policies and procedures and the necessary legislation, in a way that is in line with our vision and principles.

You will represent the Fund within your local area, including at funding fairs and external meetings, creating opportunities for people to come together. You will share learning from your role with other colleagues so that we can maximise our impact.

**Contract Type**: Permanent

**Basis**:Part Time - 18.5 hours per week

**Interview Date**: 8th March 2024 in person

**Location**:Mobile/Remote Working across The Shires (Worcestershire, Herefordshire, Telford and Shropshire) with a Telford and North Shropshire focus
