About Us
Action Tutoring is an education charity that supports pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds to succeed in school.
In the UK today, young people facing socio-economic disadvantage are less likely to achieve the grades they need to progress in life. This isn’t because they are any less able – it’s because they have less access to tools to support them to realise their potential.
Our charity is at an exciting point in its development with significant opportunity to scale up to respond to the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and support disadvantaged pupils who have been impacted. We need to engage as many volunteer tutors as we can to do this. Our volunteering opportunities are more accessible than ever, as we’ve diversified our delivery method to online tutoring.
We’re currently looking for a Volunteer Marketing and Onboarding Manager to join us on a one year fixed-term contract that has the potential to become a permanent position.
The Benefits
- Salary of £26,000 - £28,000 per annum DOE
- Flexible working
- Workplace pension
- 25 days’ holiday plus Bank Holidays
- Team socials
- Recognition schemes to celebrate staff who go above and beyond
- Team away days with regular training opportunities
If you are an ambitious marketing or volunteer management professional, this is a great opportunity to drive the growth of services that will help young people across the country to fulfil their potential.
As an education charity, we understand the importance of learning and development. You’ll be provided with a comprehensive induction and training to enhance your existing expertise and ensure your success as part of the Action Tutoring team.
Every child should be given the opportunity to succeed in school, regardless of their background. If you think you can help us to achieve our vision, we want to hear from you.
The Role
As the Volunteer Marketing and Onboarding Manager, you will be responsible for the recruitment and onboarding of over 2,000 volunteers a year.
