News: Could you be our new Head of Finance?

The bridging between Tudor’s past and future continues - Raji Hunjan, CEO

As we reach the halfway mark in the year, this feels like a good moment to update our friends, stakeholders and partners. If you follow our work, you will see that we have a made a number of changes to our website, giving a clearer sense of the direction of travel.

The last few months have focused on recruitment of staff and trustees, as well as inducting those who are new to Tudor. In addition to this, we are continuing to work on strategy and our plans to make grants in the Autumn.

We were delighted to welcome Ozzie Clarke-Binns and Georgina Wilson this month to the Board of Trustees.

A list of all our current trustees can be found here.

On the staff side, the team is growing. In June we welcomed Jemmar Samuels, Mariam Radi and Daniel Seifu as Programme Officers, along with Rosie Hodsdon as our EA & Operations Manager. We will soon be joined by a Social Historian, who will work alongside us to explore our past as we continue our transformational journey and look towards our future.

We are currently recruiting for a Head of Finance and Operations. This role will involve the supervision and management of Tudor’s finances, including budgeting, reporting, financial planning, risk management and liaising with the team and external partners. We would be very grateful if you could forward this call to your networks.

You can find further details about the Head of Finance and Operations role here.

As we develop our strategic plans, we are conscious that we want to make new grants alongside our current grant commitments. Our new team of staff and trustees gathered together for the first time earlier this month, where we continued to develop our learning and approach to our work, including our values, behaviours and strategic learning questions. Over the coming weeks, our Programme Team will be beginning to develop our new grants strategy, as we aim to begin making grants towards the end of the year.

Our team are excited about our transformational journey, and we look forward to sharing more with you in the coming months.

In the meantime, I would like to wish you all a summer full of peace and rest.
