    Head of People Information for Candidates February 2021 Contents 3 The organisation 5 The role 8 Scope and accountability 10 Person specification 12 Terms of appointment 13 How to apply The Sainsbury Family Charitable Trusts Head of People February 2021 2 THE THE SCOPE AND PERSON TERMS OF HOW ORGANISATION ROLE ACCOUNTABILITY SPECIFICATION APPOINTMENT TO APPLY The organisation The Sainsbury Family Charitable Trusts (SFCT) are a group of sixteen grant- making charitable trusts managed through a joint office employing around 95 staff in Victoria, London SW1. Each trust is a separate legal entity, created by a different member of the Sainsbury family who have developed different ways of working. The trusts have their own distinct priorities in grant-making, their own separate board of trustees and their own reporting. They tend to work proactively, with an expert team of trust executives seeking out suitable charities to support, and sometimes directing highly focused programmes of work. While some trusts have been operating for over 50 years in well-established fields, others are much newer and reflect the enthusiasm of younger family members to tackle contemporary issues. In recent years the trusts have collectively made grants worth over £110 million annually, which makes the group the largest privately-owned philanthropic body in the UK involved in a broad range of grant-making. (The Wellcome Trust, which is much larger, specialises in grants for medical work). The total capital value of the trusts at 5 April 2020 was £943 million. The trusts work in many fields, including scientific research, the arts, heritage, social inclusion, the environment, disability, education and development in Africa.

  • J Sainsbury Plc and the UK Food Retail Industry
    J. Sainsbury plc and the UK food retail industry This long case builds on issues introduced in Minicases 4.7 (p.192) and 10.8 (p.478) and covers themes from the whole book. There are four accompanying questions and five associated tasks which require you to use the Internet. Naturally your insight into the issues would also benefit from a visit to a Sainsbury’s store. A commentary on the four questions is provided later. BACKGROUND Founded in 1869 by John James and Mary Ann Sainsbury, J Sainsbury plc has become one of the largest food retailers in the UK. Its origins date back to one of the poorest regions in London and it gained its reputation for selling high quality products at low prices. It was as far back as 1882 when its strategy of high quality products at premium prices in more affluent areas began to develop. Facing serious competition from larger chains, the founder expanded threefold between 1890-1900 so that he could benefit from purchasing economies of scale and compete with contemporary rivals such as Liptons. From then on the company, still under family control grew from strength to strength. By the 1970s it had reached the scale of operation that merited public status and as such was the biggest ever flotation on the stock market in 1973. Family descendant John Sainsbury was Chairman during this period – he remained in control from1969 until 1992. During his stewardship the company pursued a strategy of growth through market development into new geographic areas and new store development in the shape of large out of town outlets, beginning with Telford and Cambridge.

It had the primary aim of providing new galleries for the Early Renaissance collection. It was also intended to give a new outward-looking face for the Gallery with expanded public facilities, including a larger temporary exhibition space. However, this space has been much criticised for its basement location and resulting lack of natural light. The rooms are limited in size and some are irregular in shape which make it difficult to install larger works and to provide enough viewing space for visitors to popular shows.
