WHAT WE DO
Young people from lower income families are 40% less likely to go to University than wealthier peers (Dept for Education, 2020) which can have a lifelong impact on earning potential. Covid-19 has deepened inequalities (Social Mobility Foundation, 2022) and negatively impacted on young people's wellbeing (GirlGuiding, 2020). We believe that no girls should have their futures limited by their gender, sex, ethnicity, background, or parental income and they should be supported to realise their ambitions, to discover their self-worth, and to develop their capacity to shape their world and their futures.

We work in communities of least advantage across England to deliver two core programmes to achieve this vision. Through our mentoring programme we connect 14-19 year old girls with a mentor and a wider network of role models who are women and deliver opportunities which help them to build life skills and nurture their ambitions.

Based on the idea that 'you can't be what you can't see', our mentors often help girls to broaden their horizons and create a more positive vision of their futures. After the programme, the mentees can join a free, lifelong network of support - our Ambassador Community, which offers further opportunities to reach their goals, build their confidence and to share their voices and experiences. Our programmes help girls and young women to develop the knowledge, skills, selfbelief and opportunities to thrive, and to be supported as part of a network that champions them and ensures their voices are heard.

THE ROLE
The Fundraising Manager (Partnerships) role is a fantastic opportunity to lead on developing partnerships with The Girls’ Network's corporate and public sector supporters. The programme is well established with £170,000 worth of partners already on board. There is an opportunity to put your own stamp on the work, developing new collateral and ideas for excellent partnerships. The role is within our Fundraising & Communications team of four staff and works in collaboration with regional Senior Network Managers. There is an opportunity for the post holder to collaborate with the Fundraising Manager (Trusts and Foundations) on the development of grant applications.

WHAT YOU WILL BRING TO THE ROLE
You will have at least five years’ relevant experience as a fundraiser or in other similar roles e.g. marketing or sales, ideally with at least three years working in fundraising and be able to demonstrate previous success in generating income and achieving targets.
You will be an exceptional communicator with the confidence to work on your own initiative and to build relationships with internal and external stakeholders.
You will be well organised with excellent attention to detail, work well under pressure and have the ability to think both strategically and operationally.
You have a good understanding of the disadvantages faced by both women and those from the least advantaged communities and have a drive to rectify the inequalities that currently exist.
You thrive on the potential to make a real difference with your work.

Gender-based violence (GBV) Movement building

The Women Gaining Ground (WGG) consortium is seeking the services of a research company, consultancy, collective, or a team of research consultants with expertise in Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) to conduct a multi-country External End Evaluation (ETE) to fulfill the reporting requirements of the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Power of Women grant instrument. The purpose of the ETE is for WGG partners to learn more about the context of the consortium’s work in the timeframe 2021-2025 through an analysis of change, shifts, and transformation that has taken place, to validate and/ or challenge our theory of change, and reflect on progress, impact, and learning, as well as evidence for planning future work and sustainability, at the closing of this program.

The Women Gaining Ground (WGG) is a Global South-led consortium of three organizations with deep experience in feminist leadership, movement-building, advocacy, and working with marginalized groups: CREA, Akili Dada; and International Women's Rights Action Watch Asia Pacific (IWRAW Asia Pacific). The WGG is collaborating in a five-year program (2021-2025) and works with strategic partners in five priority countries: India, Bangladesh, Kenya, Rwanda, and Uganda.

WGG builds the capacity and transformative leadership of young women and girls and women with disabilities (WWDs) through the creation of cross-movement alliances between new women leaders and diverse women’s rights movements to develop a shared vision and common agenda.

Through the External End Evaluation, the WGG intends to deepen our learning and understanding of what approaches and strategies have been effective in creating change and transformation, what change and transformation has taken place, to understand the effectiveness, efficiency, and sustainability of the program implemented by the WGG consortium and how it has supported and brought about change through feminist movement building.

We are looking for skilled feminist evaluation consultants and researchers who are deeply committed to and have experience working with anti-colonial, participatory, and feminist research methodologies and programme evaluations of cross-regional initiatives. We particularly welcome applications from individuals and teams with experience working in or with feminist and disability rights social movements, especially individuals or teams located in the Global South and/or East, and/or lived experience of injustice or other forms of systemic oppression (including but not limited to sexism, racism, homo-antagonism, trans-antagonism, classism and ableism – and their intersections). Please see below for further details on the criteria for applicants.

Submission of proposals

Please note that this is a rolling deadline to March 25th, 2025, and 1st and 2nd round interviews may be conducted by that date.

Budget: Up to 70,000 USD for an organisation/agency (including VAT and travel and field research expenses), and up to 20,000 USD each for individual consultants who would like to make up a team of evaluation consultants (including VAT and travel expenses).

WoMin is looking to employ an experienced, passionate womxn who explicitly identifies as feminist, has supported and stood with movements of dispossessed people (especially womxn), and holds a radical vision and practice that goes beyond conventional mainstream liberal and gender mainstream thinking.

The successful candidate will have a minimum of 10 years’ working and activist experience in some or all the areas of responsibility outlined in the job profile. It is essential that the person carries a strong feminist identity and has proven experience of work to advance womxn’s rights through struggles.
