Harris Westminster Sixth Form is looking for an experienced fundraiser to build on the strong development work that has been done over the last few years. We are looking for someone dynamic who enjoys the challenges and joys of raising funds in this competitive sector.  With strong earlier development work, we have a good foundation of current donors, and we want to enhance and enrich this to enable even more students to fulfil their dreams.

The working hours for this role will be two to three days a week. We can be flexible with hours worked, but this role will also require you to be available for relevant functions and events.

About Us

Harris Westminster combines the energy of brilliant young people from across London’s diverse neighbourhoods, the strength of Westminster School in teaching academically able students, and the Harris Federation’s experience and expertise in running outstanding maintained sector schools. This sixth form is a unique collaboration between two champions of UK Education; the Harris Federation and Westminster School. It is over-subscribed, academically selective and has incredible diversity in its student cohort with no ethnic group exceeding 20% and 40% of students having received Pupil Premium. 70% of HWSF students go on to study at Russell Group universities and we have one of the largest Oxbridge cohorts of any school (state or private). 34 students from the 2021 cohort gained places and 80+ have interviews in to join them in 2022. We are looking for an outstanding individual to join and support this exciting, scholarly, and vibrant community.

Academy Ethos

Ambition. Perseverance. Legacy. Kindness. Scholarship.

Harris Westminster students expect great things of themselves; they aim high and meet their targets, gaining places on the most competitive university course and apprenticeships, and from those courses into elite careers. They work hard to reach their ambitions and learn that setbacks are reasons to review strategy and try again rather than give up. They aim to make their mark on the world for the long term and learn that they can have a positive and lasting impact. Students from different backgrounds, cultures, and lifestyles work together and listen to each other to understand more deeply how these differences affect our experiences, to overcome prejudices and create a more equal society. During their time at the school they develop a love of learning and acquire the habits of enquiry, knowledge acquisition, and scholarship.

• Maintain at a minimum the level of current annual donations and increase this to an agreed target
• Work with the Principal and the Federation PR Consultants to develop and update the existing publicity materials to ensure that the Sixth Form’s publicity strategy is effective in attracting donors.

Location: Coram’s Fields, Kings Cross/Bloomsbury

Salary: £36,000 – £38,000 per annum (depending on experience)

Hours: Full-time, 35 hours per week

For 85 years, Coram’s Fields has provided pioneering services for young people from birth through to early adulthood. Today these services continue to provide invaluable support to the local community. Our Youth Programme supports young people aged 9 to 19, providing a safe space and offering a wide range of engaging activities that support personal, social and mental well-being, and ensure that young people’s personal circumstances, are not barriers to them achieving their life ambitions.

Over the last five years, our reputation within the local voluntary and statutory sector has grown considerably, most notably through our work with high-risk young people, including those affected by violent crime, as well as our work with young women. Alongside this, we are seen by many as a beacon of good practice in terms of our youth work, finding creative solutions to some of the most complex societal issues facing young people today.

Our youth programme engages over 350 young people per year, just under 40% of whom are young women. Our engagement of young people spans multiple disciplines, each playing a key role in supporting a range of needs.

Our generations programme provides essential support to those transitioning to youth centre age, whilst our employability programme supports those at the other end of the age spectrum, developing and nurturing young people as they seek to enter the working world. Our work in the creative arts including a dedicated music production programme, provides the platform for young people to express themselves, whilst our community outreach on local estates enables us to reach young people, not yet ready to access mainstream youth provision.

In addition to this, we are the lead voluntary sector partner within a multi-disciplinary team supporting young men at risk of violent crime. We are proud through this work, to be pioneering the use of clinical intervention alongside conventional youth work to support the underlying issue of poor mental health among both perpetrators and victims, an approach that has contributed to the delivery of often life changing outcomes for many of our young people.

This is a challenging but hugely rewarding role and one that will provide an opportunity for a talented youth work professional to develop even further, the impact of our work locally. Fundamental to your success in the role will be an unrivalled commitment to the lives of children and young people, supported by an in depth understanding of the multiple challenges that they face. Even more crucial, will be your ability to turn this commitment and understanding into high impact services that produce tangible outcomes for those that we support.

You’ll be an inspirational leader, bringing a creative flair to your work with young people, harnessing the skills of those around you to deliver a truly exceptional offer.

To apply, visit our website through the link at the top of the listing.
