About The Club The Grimsby Town Foundation was founded in 1986 as GTSET but a recent re-branding marks the start of a new approach. The Foundation aims to inspire, engage and include everyone in our community to lead more active, healthier and happier lives. This role is a crucial one in achieving that. There is nothing bigger and nothing more powerful in uniting so many people — through purpose, passion and pride — than a football club. It’s people’s identity. This is the power of the badge that means that the Foundation can play a crucial role in supporting our community. By working in partnership with others, we can help them access hard to reach communities and demographics and deliver real change for North-East Lincolnshire and beyond. This role will lead, manage and develop projects that are designed to do just that and to maintain the networks that will support them. B Corporation Alongside the Club, the Foundation is currently working towards B Corp Certification. B Corp Certification is a designation that a business is meeting high standards of verified performance, accountability, and transparency on factors from employee benefits and charitable giving to supply chain practices and input materials. To achieve certification, a company must: Demonstrate high social and environmental performance by achieving a B Impact Assessment score of 80. Make a legal commitment by changing their corporate governance structure to be accountable to all stakeholders, not just shareholders, and achieve benefit corporation status. Exhibit transparency by allowing information about their performance measured against B Lab’s standards to be publicly available on their B Corp profile on B Lab’s website. B Corp Certification is holistic, not exclusively focused on a single social or environmental issue. And the process to achieve and maintain certification is rigorous and requires engaging teams and departments across the whole organisation. All employees are expected to commit to the journey of achieving B Corporation Status.
