Crynodeb
As the largest funder for the UK’s heritage, our vision is for heritage to be valued, cared for and sustained for everyone, now and in the future.
We believe in the power of heritage to ignite the imagination, offer joy and inspiration, and to build pride in place and connection to past.
Our mission is to use our expertise to support and champion the UK’s heritage and demonstrate the transformative potential of National Lottery funding through delivering our new strategy Heritage 2033. We ensure that money from The National Lottery makes a decisive difference for people, places and communities.
We are currently recruiting for a full time Project Manager on a fixed term contract (12 months) based in any of the Heritage Fund’s Offices in the following locations: Birmingham, Cambridge, Nottingham, Leeds, Manchester, Newcastle or Cardiff (Hybrid Working).
This encompasses customer care and support, user focused investment management systems including developing a new digital service design approach to improving business processes, new ways of grant management, project management, compliance, and post completion monitoring. Supports the country and area teams across the UK with the resources to provide a consistent and high-quality service to applicants and grantees through development of the knowledge hub, the How to Guide, Register of Support Services, and bespoke training and skills development. Inspiring, leading and resourcing the heritage across the UK through sharing best practice, lessons learned, and knowledge across the sector and in liaison with other grant giving trusts foundations, and agencies. Working across departments to develop the Fund’s capability and capacity to develop its grant-making services to other bodies including development and oversight of grant-in-aid programmes.
As a Project Manager you will work with the Head of Projects to oversee the management of internal projects related to the delivery of our strategic ambitions. You will work with staff across the organisation to develop processes, application materials and project management tools as well as ensuring compliance.
This role will support the team to ensure projects are delivered on time, achieves the specified objectives and provide updates for internal and external stakeholders on progress. At times, the role will focus exclusively on one project but this may change depending on the lifecycle of each project.
If you are excited about helping ensure that heritage is inclusive and accessible to everyone, for now and future generations, then we want to hear from you.
Applications close on Sunday, 1 February 2026
Interviews are expected to take place on Friday, 13 February 2026

Flexible Working
The National Lottery Heritage Fund has offices all over the UK and we champion a flexible approach to working where this supports our business needs. We have formally adopted a hybrid working approach. This means that most employees will work from their contracted Heritage Fund office twice a week at minimum.
