London is the greatest city in the world. But London is a polarised city, of extreme inequality, of haves and have-nots. It is a city with the country’s greatest wealth, but also the worst deprivation, where people struggle just to get by.
The fact that people in our city experience London so differently should cause us all to feel unease, and concern. We believe in a London where everyone has a fair chance. We believe in a London that comes together for its neighbours.
And London is a city where ordinary but remarkable people are rising to those challenges, every day, and making change happen. That change is happening through local, small, community organisations, which people who are most excluded and feel most alienated, trust and turn to. That change is made possible by inspiring community leaders, who often have personal experience of the challenges they are helping their communities overcome.
We believe in the vital role local community organisations and their leaders play. We believe in listening, and trusting people to know what their challenges are. We also believe in the generosity and solidarity of Londoners, wanting to make a difference to where they live and work. We know communities can identify their own responses to the challenges they face, but often lack the resources. Our task is to support them. We do that by championing local organisations, connecting funders to them, channelling funds to their work, and supporting them directly to be stronger.
We are committed to challenging ourselves to be more inclusive and diverse in how we operate. This includes our recruitment experience. We have a series of commitments to help us attract diverse talent. Throughout our recruitment process, we will:
All first interviews will be online, while any 2nd or 3rd interviews will be at our office in London.
A strong and diverse civil society, that tackles disadvantage and creates greater equity in London.
Through good philanthropy, our knowledge and expertise, we convene donors to invest in charitable organisations working to overcome the issues affecting London.
Our team and board come from diverse backgrounds, with different skills, experience and perspective, but unified by their ambition for London.
Alongside our values, we expect everyone to display the behaviours needed to contribute to our vision and purpose. In return we seek to offer and inclusive, rewarding and collaborative environment and a number of benefits.
