The Royal Air Force Benevolent Fund is the RAF’s leading welfare charity and facilitates the provision of help and support for members of the RAF Family and their eligible dependants who are in need of assistance. The Fund has launched an ambitious centenary campaign to reach out to members of the RAF Family in a bid to double the number of beneficiaries that we assist. A crucial component of the campaign is the Stakeholder Engagement Plan. The objective is to engage with major Stakeholders (e.g. NHS Trusts, Police Forces, GPs, charities etc) across the country and support them in the best way possible to deliver our welfare support message both to their staff and potential members of the RAF Family that they may engage with.
We are currently recruiting a Stakeholder Engagement Project Manager for employment on a part-time (3 days per week) 12 month fixed-term contract. The role will be based in our London Headquarters but we are open to a conversation regarding some element of flexible working.

This role will help the Royal Air Force Benevolent Fund increase its profile, awareness and most importantly its impact.
As the Stakeholder Engagement Project Manager, you will work closely with Director Welfare & Policy, Area Directors and the Comms team to manage and deliver the Stakeholder Engagement Plan.
