Job Description
Letchworth Foodbank is seeking an exceptional part-time Charity Manager to lead our organisation. Our mission is the prevention or relief of poverty in our area by serving the needy in Letchworth, Hitchin and Baldock. Receiving donations and grants of over £200,000 per annum, the Foodbank distributes over 40 tonnes of food and £50,000 of food vouchers every year to those that need it most.
As an organisation relying entirely on grants and donations, we face challenging hurdles to maintain and grow our income base in order to meet the increasingly complex needs of our clients. Our strategy is not to stand still but to increase our reach and impact and we require a Charity Manager that shares our ambitions and has the capability to drive our strategy forwards.
We are a volunteer-based organisation with over 75 active volunteers supporting the breadth of operations from warehousing to client facing distribution centres. We also work closely with local social care institutions and authorities on both funding for the Foodbank and ensuring our support for the needy helps them get back on their feet on a sustainable basis. The Charity Manager will lead our volunteer team as well as engaging with the institutions and authorities that we work with to achieve our mission and implement our strategy.
The Charity Manager will be a leader driven by our mission, with empathy for our clients and the volunteers they will lead, possessing the skills to deliver our strategy with the support of the organisations and institutions we work with.
