Working for UKCF
Make a difference and become part of the UKCF team
What is it like to work at UKCF?
UKCF is a fully remote-working organisation with staff based across the UK, embedded in the communities we serve, stretching around the nation.
Each member of the team can be fully home based, work from the office of their nearest community foundation or combine the two approaches according to their situation and preference. We make good use of online tools and channels, for both formal meetings and informal catch-ups, to ensure that we all stay in touch and work effectively together.
UKCF is made of a small, friendly and supportive team. We make time to catch up socially as well as to work. We meet in person three times a year over a few days, visiting a different community foundation each time. This helps us to build on our strategy and working relationships, and to learn more about the vital projects and programmes our network supports.
Each member of staff has a supported learning journey and is encouraged to take two volunteering days each year to give time to the causes that we are passionate about.

I must admit I was nervous about starting a job with a remote organisation. However, UKCF has been so welcoming, and open to ideas and to trying new things, which has meant I have felt far more connected to the team and the cause than I ever thought I would.
I feel that as an organisation that is UK-wide, it’s important to have staff members based in their local communities. This way we can have a clearer idea of the challenges presented in all our communities which can differ greatly from county to county.
