Education Delivery Specialist -London
Home-based/Hybrid within London with two days per month in the London office minimum, and frequent local and regional and occasional UK-wide travel
Maternity Cover - Commencing March 2026
Full time, with some evening and weekend hours with TOIL provided (open to part time, 4 days/80%)
Salary £30,295 per annum FTE including London weighting (pro rata for part time)
Excellent benefits including 28 days' annual leave plus bank holidays (plus discretionary closure days in December) FTE, contributory pension, cycle to work scheme, Employee Assistance Programme, travel loan cards
Are you based in London, highly organised, and with the skills and experience to engage 9 to 15-year-olds in education programmes?
Are you looking for a varied, exciting, and demanding role, working alongside colleagues who are passionate about young people and committed to empowering them to challenge prejudice?
Charity People are delighted to be partnering with an education charity that educates 9 to 15-year-olds about Anne Frank and the Holocaust, empowering them to challenge all forms of prejudice, to help recruit an Education Delivery Specialist.
Founded in 1991, the trust is the UK partner of the Anne Frank House Amsterdam. "I'll make my voice heard, I'll go out into the world and work for humankind!" wrote Anne Frank in her diary on 12 March 1944. The Trust has a 30-year record of empowering young people to challenge prejudice, inspired by Anne Frank and the antisemitism that she experienced through the Holocaust.
Education Delivery Specialists are the front-line delivery posts for all programmes, leading workshops, training peer educators and mentoring ambassadors across the country. You will be committed to equality with the skills to engage 9 to 15-year-olds through learning and empowerment. This role is a temporary maternity cover, ideally starting in March 2026. You will be covering a range of brilliant London schools with established relationships and programmes. You will join a supportive team including two London and Essex-based workers.
Key responsibilities
- Programme Delivery: You will plan and deliver educational programmes for young people (ages 9-15) focused on challenging prejudice, empowering them with knowledge and skills. You will book programmes into schools, maintain strong relationships with key stakeholders, and lead workshops and online sessions. You will prioritise equality and diversity, emphasising inclusive educational activities and impact.
- Training, Mentoring and Support: You will train young people as peer educators and Ambassadors to disseminate anti-prejudice messages effectively, and provide mentoring, offering support and guiding them.
- Events: You will organise events, study trips, and projects with Ambassadors and communities, working to targets, curriculum, and quality standards. You will monitor and evaluate activities, maintaining records.
- Database and Fundraising Support: You will maintain comprehensive records on the Trust's databases and contribute occasionally to fundraising efforts, such as grant applications and supporting at donor events.
The Education Delivery Specialist will have substantial experience of running learning activities with groups of young people, including aged 9-15 years, and experience of engaging with and meeting the needs of disadvantaged young people. You will also have experience of providing pastoral/emotional support, working successfully as part of a team, and keeping records and writing reports. You will have knowledge of best practice in teaching and/or youth empowerment, as well as be familiar with the needs and issues of young people. You will understand and have ideas about how to challenge prejudice, and an understanding of safeguarding. You will be highly organised, with excellent administration skills, and able to build and maintain effective relationships. You will use your initiative, creativity, and energy to solve problems and develop new ways of working. You will have an inspiring presentation style with warm, professional interpersonal skills. The successful candidate will be enthusiastic about Anne Frank and the work of the trust.
The role is home-based within London. Ideally, you will have access to appropriate working space which can be discussed at interview. There will be frequent local and regional travel and occasional UK-wide travel and overnight stays. Expenses are covered and time off in lieu is given for evening and weekend work. Ideally you will have a current valid UK driving licence and access to a car, but this is not essential as it is a London-based role. The role is subject to an advanced DBS check on appointment, and references.
If you are excited by this opportunity and have the relevant skills and experience to apply, we would be delighted to hear from you.
