If this sounds like you, apply to be a Senior Planning and Project Executive to play a vital role in our fight for home. About the role A focus of this role is supporting the delivery of Shelter's key fundraising initiative, the Winter Fundraising Campaign.

About you Strong communication and relationship-building skills are essential, as you'll work with a variety of teams across Shelter's Income Generation directorate. You will need to be comfortable taking responsibility for leading on smaller projects and working with the Senior Fundraising Project Manager to deliver projects of all sizes, and embrace opportunities for learning and decision-making. Proactivity is important, whether it's setting up meetings, asking questions, or suggesting new ideas. You'll also have the chance to volunteer in our retail shops and visit Shelter Hubs to deepen your understanding of our cause.

We are happy to talk about flexible working, personal growth, and to promote a workplace where you can be yourself and achieve success based only on your merit. About the team This role sits within the Planning & Project Management team in our Income Generation directorate. This team leads on delivering key projects such as Shelter's Winter Campaign, as well as acting as the backbone for many of Income Generation's planning processes.

We exist to defend the right to a safe home. Because home is everything. We need ambitious, passionate people to join us. This is your chance to play a part in the fundamental change we are striving to achieve. Our enemy is the social injustice at the core of the escalating housing emergency.

In all our people decisions, we take pride in being inclusive, equitable and transparent. We are committed to combating racism both within and outside Shelter.
