Temporary Programme Project Manager

The Middlesbrough Programme on Gendered Poverty is an exciting collaborative programme bringing together Buttle UK, the Smallwood Trust and Turn2us to test whether a co-produced & collaborative approach to grant-making can transform the lives of women and their children.

The programme aims to:

• Shift power to people worst impacted by gendered poverty and work to end gendered poverty 
• Develop the programme using co-production techniques so that the voices and experiences of the women and their children, who face issues created by gendered poverty, inform and shape the programme 
• Deliver the programme with and to communities of the most marginalised women and their children 
• Apply an evidence-based approach to our work and programme design 
• Use grants as a primary response and tool, effectively and efficiently 
• Learn as we go and work to understand how intersections of inequality impact on our grant making 
• Identify opportunities to influence other grant makers and policies to support wider system change.

We are seeking an energetic, organised and passionate Programme Manager who will work with us to take this programme to the next level. We want this project to be led and informed by the women affected by gendered poverty because we know it will help us have a greater impact and shift power.

The Programme Manager sits with Turn2us’ Local Programmes Team alongside two other programmes working with communities to achieve financial security for all.

We offer flexible working patterns, both in terms of hours and remote working, however regular in person work in Middlesbrough and London will be required.

Please note that all job offers are subject to 2 – 3 satisfactory references and an advanced disclosure satisfactory to Turn2us from the Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS).

Closing date: 17th April 2024

Interview date: w/c 22nd April 2024
