This is an exciting and busy time to be joining UK Youth as we prepare to launch our new strategy and  transform the way we work to ensure all young people are equipped to thrive and empowered to contribute at every stage of their lives. As a result  we are recruiting for a number of new roles designed to enable the organisation to grow, improve our ways of working and enable us to deliver to deliver our ambitious 2025 strategic plan.

We are in a search for a Senior Fundraising professional to join the organisation as the Head of Avon Tyrrell Capital Appeal,  who will be responsible for planning, managing, implementing and delivering a new capital fundraising appeal for Avon Tyrrell, UK Youth’s outdoor learning centre.

This is an exciting and busy time to be joining UK Youth as we develop and implement the strategic plans for our next chapter. A key part of our new strategy is the investment in outdoor learning and the development of Avon Tyrrell, our outdoor learning centre in the New Forest, Hampshire. Avon Tyrrell has a 100-bed dormitory-style Grade I listed Calendar House, Grade II* Coach House and Grade II grounds.  With over 39,000 visitors each year the site is in need of urgent repair and investment to ensure we can continue to support young people now and in the future.

It is envisaged that this will be a 3-year project and is therefore being recruited on a fixed term contract basis.

Responsibilities will include: development of the appeal fundraising strategy, ensuring alignment with UK Youth Income Generation Strategy and realisation of the income generation targets; and supporting the finalisation of the development plans involving internal and external stakeholder engagement and consultation with relevant experts. In this senior fundraising role, you will work closely with the External Relations and Avon Tyrrell teams to develop and launch a new capital fundraising appeal, which we estimate  will need to raise between £3-5m, including a new purpose-built learning centre and restoration of Avon Tyrrell House and Grounds.

Who we are

UK Youth is a leading charity that exists to ensure all young people are equipped to thrive and empowered to contribute at every stage of their lives. We work with others to ensure that the youth sector is strengthened, supported, and that provision is youth-led, evidence-informed and delivers high-quality outcomes.

UK Youth plays a unique role in addressing; the lack of investment in the youth sector, the lack of cross sector understanding in how youth work makes a difference and the limited opportunities to embed effective solutions. These factors lead to mass inequality of access to youth services for young people. To find more about us and how we make an impact, please visit UK Youth Website.

Fundraising Manager

Are you an experienced fundraiser looking for the opportunity to join a small, friendly team and drive the growth of an as-of-yet untapped income stream for a growing, dynamic charity supporting NHS patients in hospital? 

About MediCinema 

MediCinema is a national, registered UK charity that improves the wellbeing and quality of life of NHS patients, their families and carers through the power of the shared cinema experience and the magic of film. We achieve this by building and running cinemas in hospitals equipped with space for beds, wheelchairs and medical equipment, and providing free films (and activities) at bedsides for patients of all ages. Our services, currently available in six hospitals, help to improve emotional, mental and physical health, reducing isolation, anxiety and stress, and increasing patient resilience.

Having pivoted quickly to meet the needs for patients during the pandemic - reimagining our services to support over 43,000 people - we are rebuilding this year and will then re-enter a period of expansion with three new sites planned for 2022-2025.  All of which means varied and challenging work in MediCinema’s small Head Office.

You will also support the CEO on Trust and Foundation income, and work closely with the small but vibrant team in other areas as required to deliver the organisation’s funding needs.

The role will involve appropriately recruiting and stewarding individual supporters of all levels, identifying people from throughout MediCinema’s network who may support MediCinema as an individual or through their organisation, building personal relationships with mid-tier donors and trust and foundation contacts, making applications and managing data and reporting. 

What you'll need to succeed

• Experience of delivering a strong increase in income through donor acquisition and retention, or trusts and foundations.

• Able to lead and develop strategic support from individuals at all levels, and trusts and foundations in conjunction with the CEO.

• Able to operate independently as the first port of call for both existing and potential supporters.

• Strong fundraising experience likely to have been gained over 4+ years, with specific experience in individual giving or digital marketing desirable, and ideally trusts and foundations.

• Experience of producing written appeals, digital marketing campaigns, copywriting, funding applications, proposals, updates and reports.

• Driven, enthusiastic and able to use initiative with a creative, solution-focused approach.

• Able to multi-task, prioritise strategically and manage workload with conflicting deadlines.

• Confident inter-personal and communication skills, both written and verbal.

In your role as Centre Leader you will have responsibility for running your IntoUniversity centre, including planning and delivering the programme, liaising with external stakeholders (including our university partners) and meeting IntoUniversity’s targets for delivery.

As a charity with social mobility as its core objective, IntoUniversity is wholly committed to equality of opportunity. We work with children and young people from a diverse range of backgrounds, and we believe that our staff team should be similarly diverse and representative. The more inclusive we are, the better our work will be, and we recognise that we have much more to do in this regard. We are committed to building a culture where students, staff and volunteers are valued for the unique people they are. We therefore encourage applications from candidates from as wide a range as possible of ethnic, cultural and social backgrounds. In particular, we actively and warmly welcome applications from Black, Asian and minority ethnic candidates, male candidates and candidates with a disability as they are currently under-represented within IntoUniversity.

We are also recruiting for a Regional Operations Manager for our West Midlands and Oxford Cluster.
