Open and Trusting (O&T) is a central pillar of IVAR’s new strategy. The community has grown rapidly, and there is real potential to deepen its reach and influence. We’ve created this new role because the network needs dedicated leadership to guide its next stage – at a time when a resilient and well-resourced voluntary sector is more essential than ever.
As Head of Programme and Engagement, you’ll bring energy, structure and connective thinking to a network that spans over 170 funders. You will play a central role in strengthening the community, supporting funders to learn from each other, and ensuring the programme runs with momentum and purpose.
This is a collaborative, outward-facing role working closely with colleagues across research, communications, operations and leadership. It brings together project management, external engagement, community-building and fundraising –– all in service of making O&T a vibrant, useful and well-supported movement for funding practice change.
