The Fore is committed to equal opportunities. We encourage applications from qualified candidates from a wide range of backgrounds and from all sections of the community. For all roles we recruit, experience of working or volunteering for small charities and social enterprises is as relevant, if not more relevant than more formal qualifications.


Strategic Applicant Consultant

Would you like to share your skills with some of the UKs most exciting small charity leaders and social entrepreneurs to help them maximise their impact? Are you an experienced professional who enjoys setting and articulating strategy? If so, we would love you to join us as a Strategic Applicant Consultant.

Consultants are at the front line of the Fore’s assessment process during each funding round. They help us to identify and advise the best charities and social enterprises for whom funding and strategic support could unlock transformational impact.

Our Consultants typically have 10 years + experience in business, public or non-profit sector senior leadership positions. No previous grant experience is required, and we encourage applications from a range of backgrounds.

Consultants work on a funding round would take between 8-10 days in total and would be highly flexible over a 12-week period. We like our consultants to do at least three funding rounds, which are usually spread over multiple years.

We operate a low-bono model and Consultants are remunerated with a stipend per application assessed.

We will be inviting interested candidates to apply very soon. To find out more about the role and how to apply, please sign up to our information session on 12th October here. If you are unable to make the info session, but are interested, then you are welcome to email your CV and an expression of interest in the role to [email protected].
