We’re hiring – a secondment with Propel

collaboration circle logo.pngWe're hiring (but not in the usual way)

We’re inviting equity and justice–focused civil society organisations to partner with us on a unique secondment opportunity within the Propel long-term grants programme.

Collaboration Circle is building a Relational Grant Management Team to support organisations working on systems change across London through seven-year Propel grants. As part of this, we are seeking two part-time secondees from equity and justice organisations to join the team.

This is not a standard job role. Successful candidates will remain employed by their current organisation and be seconded into the Propel team for two days per week over 12–18 months. The secondment is designed to share power, test new approaches to equitable funding practice, and generate learning that flows back into civil society as well as the funding sector.

Seconding organisations will receive £23,000 per year to support salary costs, backfill, or related expenses.

We are particularly keen to hear from organisations with a strong track record of addressing structural inequality and an interest in shaping more relational, trust-based approaches to funding.

Applications close: 11 February 2026
Secondments start: April 2026
