This is a new role at High Trees, created because we believe Lambeth's voluntary and community sector (VCS) is one of the borough's greatest assets - strong, skilled and rooted in the communities it serves. Place-based organisations like ours play a vital role in supporting individuals, strengthening communities, growing local economies and shaping the policy decisions that affect the people we work with. We want a dedicated Manager who can help make that case, loudly and effectively, both within High Trees and across the wider system. A key part of this role is our contract to deliver capacity building support to Lambeth's VCS , commissioned by the local authority and delivered through the Lambeth Hubs Partnership - but this is one strand of a much bigger picture. We want this role to think beyond any single contract, taking a long-term view of what Lambeth's VCS infrastructure support needs to look like, and leading the development of new approaches , including peer support models and a more circular economy across the sector. Health and wellbeing is increasingly shaping where funding and investment in our sector flows, and we want Lambeth's VCS to be ready and well-positioned to respond to this shift. You will play a leading role in this, working with partners including the SEL VCS Alliance to develop shared practice across South East London boroughs, and ensuring our sector's voice is heard as these opportunities develop. This role is as much strategic as it is operational - we're never too far from the ground at High Trees, and you'll be expected to lead on much of the day-to-day delivery yourself. That means designing and delivering workshops and one-to-one capacity building support, developing resources and toolkits , and running networking events that bring Lambeth's VCS together. You'll also build a network of trusted delivery partners - freelancers and facilitators, ideally drawn from within our own sector - helping to keep skills, income and opportunity circulating within Lambeth's VCS. As VCS Capacity Building Manager, you will lead High Trees' work to strengthen Lambeth's voluntary and community sector, acting as an advocate for High Trees and a champion for the wider sector , while managing funded contracts and programmes that support local organisations to grow their skills, systems and impact. The role combines strategic leadership - shaping High Trees' contribution to the future of VCS infrastructure support, and representing the sector within key partnerships - with hands-on operational delivery, including direct capacity building support, training and events. You will be confident managing multiple work streams, and equally comfortable working strategically and on the ground.
