Funding and Compliance Officer
Starting Salary: £42,298
Contract: Full-time, permanent contract (we are open to conversations about different ways of working - so please ask)
Location: London-based role with expectation of hybrid working from our client's London office
About Our Client
Our client is an independent charitable foundation. They want everyone to be in a good place - personally, in a home that's a good place to live, and in a community that's a good place to belong.
They play their role by connecting and catalysing community-led change, providing the money, time, tools and connections that build organisations' capacity and capability, to make people's lives better and their communities stronger.
They back people and communities across England and Wales, to make that happen, because when you back brilliant people, brilliant things happen. Their communities are full of ambitious, energetic and determined people stepping up to make their neighbours' lives better and their communities grow stronger. Day in, day out.
About the Role
As Funding and Compliance Officer, you will play a key role in managing the full funding lifecycle, from assessing applications through to completion. You will review funding applications, undertake due diligence and present clear, well-evidenced funding recommendations to inform decision-making.
Working closely with applicants, grant holders, colleagues and external partners, you will build strong, trusted relationships while providing a responsive and professional service throughout the funding process. You will also ensure accurate administration and reporting through the internal CRM system, supporting high-quality data and insight across the organisation.
Alongside this, you will support safeguarding, risk and wider compliance activity, helping to maintain strong governance and regulatory standards. You will also contribute to improving how we work, using feedback and insight to enhance processes and practice across the team.
About You
You bring experience of grant-making or grant management, including assessment, compliance, contract management and reporting, ideally with exposure to safeguarding within a funding environment. You are confident applying criteria consistently and using sound judgement to inform decisions.
You take ownership of your work, following through on commitments and delivering high-quality outcomes. You have a collaborative, relational style and enjoy building positive, productive relationships with colleagues and stakeholders.
You demonstrate a clear commitment to the organisation's values bold, inclusive, relational and can-do. A strong commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging for all in your work and approach is essential.

Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
Our client holds Disability Confident Employer status (Level 2) and is working towards full status by 2027. This means that if you're a disabled applicant and your CV and application answers clearly demonstrate that you meet the essential criteria for the role, you will be invited to interview.
More broadly, they are committed to building a diverse team that reflects the communities and people they work with. They believe that diversity of background, experience and perspective makes them stronger and helps them make better decisions. They actively welcome applications from people who are under-represented in the charity sector, including people from Black, Asian and minoritised ethnic communities, disabled people, and those with experience of the issues their funded charities work to address.
