This charity gets children and young people into school, ready to learn. They have been working for over 30 years, with children, families and schools to break the long-term cycle of deprivation. What starts as poor school attendance can become low educational attainment, anti-social behaviour, crime, low paid or no job - generation after generation. Our client makes a real difference and they are passionate about the role education plays in improving life chances for disadvantaged children and young people.

The fundraising team

The organisation's fundraising team is small and hard working. Their contribution this year will be over £2.5 million to the charity. Trusts and Foundations should account for approximately £1.5 million of this.

COVID-19 has put education and related inequalities squarely on the agenda. This charity's services are never more needed and they need to further increase income to support more children and families.

About the role

Building on recent Trusts and Foundations fundraising successes they are now looking for a confident, enthusiastic and focused individual to join their friendly team. The role will suit someone who is looking to make an impact and who can build on this charity’s solid reputation to grow their income from Trusts.

The post is expected to be home based initially, moving to their Stratford office when restrictions allow. The office in Stratford is a 10 minute walk from the station and well served with both underground and mainline trains, including Stratford International, Jubilee and Central line tubes, Overground and DLR.

Closing date: 9am Wednesday 7th July
Interviews: Week commencing Monday 12th July
