At Prostate Cancer UK, one of our top priorities is funding research that leads to real change. It's vital we do our best to make sure this research makes a meaningful difference to men's lives, and that's where you come in. We're at an exciting time, with a new strategy coming soon, and so we are looking to grow our Research Funding Team. We're looking for an enthusiastic and proactive Grant Manager to help us deliver our core funding schemes and embark on new, exciting initiatives to fund ground-breaking research that will revolutionise how prostate cancer is diagnosed and treated. You'll take responsibility for a portfolio of around a third of our active research grants, providing support and guidance to the researchers leading them. You'll be a main point of contact for grant applicants, supporting them through the application process and providing them with guidance about remit and eligibility. Using your understanding of research funding and administration, you'll work with our Senior Research Officers to make sure our funding schemes run smoothly, to time and support our funding Committees in their review of the applications we receive. What the job involves It's crucial that we not only have fair and robust processes to ensure that we fund the very best research, but that we also closely monitor and support the delivery of the resulting projects, to maximise their impact and accelerate the advancements we see through research. Which is why we're looking to appoint an experienced Grant Manager to join our Research Directorate. As part of your responsibilities, you'll manage a portfolio of our active research grants, closely monitoring their progress and finances, and provide valuable support and advice to our grant holders and their teams. You'll develop a detailed understanding of the science behind these projects and build positive working relationships with the researchers and their institutions.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER (CEO) Location: Mostly at the Saïd Foundation office in central London, with some scope for remote working. Occasional international travel to the Levant region where deemed safe. Responsible to: The Chairman and Board of Trustees. Line management: Scholarships Programme Manager, Financial Controller, Finance and Programme Administrator. Salary: £80,000 - £85,000 pro rata. Job type: Part-time (three days a week), permanent. ABOUT THE ROLE We are looking for an experienced organisational manager, who will mentor our small and highly motivated team and bring proven expertise around financial and people management and governance as well as of building relationships with different stakeholders and providing strong accountability to charity trustees. You will have an understanding of the Levant region of the Middle East, a commitment to bridge building and respect across cultures and a conviction that education can change lives for the better, create enlightened and effective leadership and benefit wider society. Our outgoing CEO originally came to the UK as a Saïd Foundation Scholar to study at Oxford University and has worked for the Foundation for over six years. He is leaving to return to Syria. We are looking for an experienced manager to carry on his work in leading our team, maintaining close relationships with our Trustees, partners and students and ensuring that the Foundation's programmes are run to the highest standards. ABOUT THE SAÏD FOUNDATION The Saïd Foundation was established as a non-sectarian and non-political charity in 1982 by Wafic and Rosemary Saïd to bring positive and lasting change to the lives of children, young people and the wider community with a focus on the Levant region of the Middle East and on the UK, and on education as a powerful tool to make change. It is governed by a Board of Trustees and the Board's Student, Projects, Audit and Investments Committees. Khaled Saïd has just become Chair of the Board. Since 1984, our longest-standing programme, the Scholarships Programme, has offered opportunities to outstanding individuals with leadership potential to be drivers of positive change within our target countries of Syria, Jordan, Lebanon and Palestine. It brings these change agents to the UK to study for Master's degrees at exceptional universities and maintains close contact with them during their studies and beyond. Our amazing community of over 700 alumni have gone on to become outstanding leaders in many fields and to build bridges and respect across cultures. The Foundation's founder, Wafic Saïd, is also the founder of Oxford University's Saïd Business School, now one of the world's leading business schools. The Saïd Business School Foundation (SBSF), also an English charity, was established in 1998 to support the development of the School in its pursuit of excellence. Its Strategic Development Fund provides grants in support of initiatives that will have strategic value to the development of the School. SBSF is funded and administered by the Saïd Foundation. The Foundation's humanitarian work has responded to the shifting needs of the region over immensely challenging times. Since 2011, it has focused on supporting Syrian refugee communities in Lebanon and Jordan through grants to major international non-governmental organisations. Most recently, it has provided support for Gazan children orphaned by the destruction of their homeland. Before the conflict in Syria began, the Foundation ran a capacity-building programme across the country for those working to support Syria's disabled children. It helped to set up a sister organisation in Syria, the Saïd Foundation for Development, which will take forward future work in Syria and is now considering how to support the needs of a post-Assad Syria. In recent years, the Foundation has also worked to promote better health outcomes for people everywhere by making grants to innovative and impactful projects at world-leading medical research institutions based in the UK and known to the Saïd family. JOB DESCRIPTION Job purpose: To lead a small, motivated team in the best-practice implementation, monitoring and evaluation of the Foundation's programmes and grants and to build strong relationships with the Foundation's Trustees, partners and scholars. Responsibilities: 1. Programme and grant management a) To oversee the management of the scholarships programme, ensuring the selection of outstanding students from the Levant region and the Foundation's duty of care to them while they are in the UK. b) To oversee the Foundation's grant-making programmes, ensuring that grants agreed by the Trustees are informed by rigorous due diligence and are monitored effectively. c) To provide guidance as necessary to the Board and staff of the Saïd Foundation for Development in Syria on governance and project management matters. d) To oversee the evaluation of the scholarships programme periodically, and grant-funded projects as necessary, to ensure they achieve their intended objectives and apply learning to their improvement. 2. Organisation and staff management a) To devise and implement annual plans for implementation of the Foundation's work, define the level and timing of human and other resources required to deliver the plans and develop key performance indicators to report progress against plans to the Board. b) To foster a supportive work culture, managing staff in line with best human resource practice and ensuring high levels of motivation and strong performance. c) To recruit staff, when necessary. d) To oversee the effective operation of all office systems, including IT and the scholarships platform and database, and introduce improvements (for example, in the use of AI). e) To ensure that health and safety aspects are taken into account appropriately when the Foundation's staff, students and Trustees are travelling in connection with the Foundation's activities. 3.

Line management: Scholarships Programme Manager, Financial Controller, Finance and Programme Administrator. Salary: £80,000 - £85,000 pro rata. Job type: Part-time (three days a week), permanent. ABOUT THE ROLE We are looking for an experienced organisational manager, who will mentor our small and highly motivated team and bring proven expertise around financial and people management and governance as well as of building relationships with different stakeholders and providing strong accountability to charity trustees. You will have an understanding of the Levant region of the Middle East, a commitment to bridge building and respect across cultures and a conviction that education can change lives for the better, create enlightened and effective leadership and benefit wider society. Our outgoing CEO originally came to the UK as a Saïd Foundation Scholar to study at Oxford University and has worked for the Foundation for over six years. He is leaving to return to Syria. We are looking for an experienced manager to carry on his work in leading our team, maintaining close relationships with our Trustees, partners and students and ensuring that the Foundation's programmes are run to the highest standards. ABOUT THE SAÏD FOUNDATION The Saïd Foundation was established as a non-sectarian and non-political charity in 1982 by Wafic and Rosemary Saïd to bring positive and lasting change to the lives of children, young people and the wider community with a focus on the Levant region of the Middle East and on the UK, and on education as a powerful tool to make change. It is governed by a Board of Trustees and the Board's Student, Projects, Audit and Investments Committees. Khaled Saïd has just become Chair of the Board. Since 1984, our longest-standing programme, the Scholarships Programme, has offered opportunities to outstanding individuals with leadership potential to be drivers of positive change within our target countries of Syria, Jordan, Lebanon and Palestine. It brings these change agents to the UK to study for Master's degrees at exceptional universities and maintains close contact with them during their studies and beyond. Our amazing community of over 700 alumni have gone on to become outstanding leaders in many fields and to build bridges and respect across cultures. The Foundation's founder, Wafic Saïd, is also the founder of Oxford University's Saïd Business School, now one of the world's leading business schools. The Saïd Business School Foundation (SBSF), also an English charity, was established in 1998 to support the development of the School in its pursuit of excellence. Its Strategic Development Fund provides grants in support of initiatives that will have strategic value to the development of the School. SBSF is funded and administered by the Saïd Foundation. The Foundation's humanitarian work has responded to the shifting needs of the region over immensely challenging times. Since 2011, it has focused on supporting Syrian refugee communities in Lebanon and Jordan through grants to major international non-governmental organisations. Most recently, it has provided support for Gazan children orphaned by the destruction of their homeland. Before the conflict in Syria began, the Foundation ran a capacity-building programme across the country for those working to support Syria's disabled children. It helped to set up a sister organisation in Syria, the Saïd Foundation for Development, which will take forward future work in Syria and is now considering how to support the needs of a post-Assad Syria. In recent years, the Foundation has also worked to promote better health outcomes for people everywhere by making grants to innovative and impactful projects at world-leading medical research institutions based in the UK and known to the Saïd family.
