The National Lottery Heritage Fund
As the largest funder for the UK’s heritage, their vision is for heritage to be valued, cared for and sustained for everyone, now and in the future.
They believe in the power of heritage to ignite the imagination, offer joy and inspiration, and to build pride in place and connection to past.
Their mission is to use their expertise to support and champion the UK’s heritage and demonstrate the transformative potential of National Lottery funding through delivering our strategy Heritage 2033. They ensure that money from The National Lottery makes a decisive difference for people, places, and communities.
They are currently recruiting for a full time Head of Investment on a permanent contract based in any of the Heritage Fund’s Offices in the North – Leeds, Manchester or Newcastle (Hybrid Working).
The primary purpose of this post is to lead and manage all grant activity (including National Lottery and other sources) across the England, North area. This post will manage the ‘Investment’ Team and work with the Head of Engagement to ensure a strong ‘pipeline’ of applications. The post will also work closely with the Director, England North, to manage the budget allocation for grants in the North of England.
If you are excited about helping ensure that heritage is inclusive and accessible to everyone, for now and future generations, then they want to hear from you.
