Join Wings for Life and take the lead in shaping one of the most exciting and impactful event portfolios in the charity sector. You will drive the strategy, growth and delivery of a diverse programme of premium fundraising events, mass participation experiences and high-profile partnerships that inspire supporters, engage world-class brands and generate vital funds to find a cure for spinal cord injury.
Your portfolio will span exclusive owned fundraising events such as Mikey’s Mountain Miles, our skiing fundraiser with Mike Tindal MBE; The Clay Day, a premium sporting and hospitality experience with our Formula 1 partners; and two established golf events, including an owned event, Gourmet Golf, and a supporter-led initiative. You will also play a central role in maximising opportunities through major third-party events and partnerships, including the Wings for Life World Run, the London Marathon 2027, and high-profile Red Bull events.
This is more than event management. It is an opportunity to identify new opportunities, develop innovative event concepts and create unforgettable supporter experiences that stand out in a crowded fundraising landscape. Working closely with senior leadership, ambassadors, partners and supporters, you will combine creativity, commercial acumen and flawless execution to grow income, build awareness and strengthen Wings for Life’s position as a leading charity brand. Whether enhancing existing events or creating entirely new experiences within and beyond the Red Bull universe, you will play a pivotal role in delivering ambitious growth and lasting impact.
What We're Looking For
We’re seeking an ambitious, creative and highly organised event leader who thrives on turning great ideas into exceptional experiences. You will have a proven track record of delivering high-quality events, achieving ambitious commercial and fundraising targets, and building strong relationships with a wide range of stakeholders. Equally comfortable developing strategy and rolling up your sleeves to deliver flawless event execution, you will bring the energy, entrepreneurial mindset and attention to detail needed to drive growth across our events portfolio.
As a manager, you will lead and develop our Event & Fundraising Specialist, providing coaching, support and professional development while fostering a collaborative, high-performing culture. You will also play an active role in supporting our individual fundraising programme and championing a ‘one team’ approach across the organisation.
Success in this role will require strong commercial awareness, budget management expertise and the confidence to negotiate, influence and present to senior stakeholders, partners and Board members. You will be adept at managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment, while maintaining a relentless focus on delivering outstanding supporter experiences and maximising return on investment.
Experience working with premium brands, VIP audiences, luxury hospitality or high-end events would be advantageous, as would a passion for identifying new opportunities, creating innovative event concepts and challenging conventional thinking. Above all, you will be a solutions-focused self-starter with exceptional relationship-building skills, a genuine passion for our mission and the drive to help Wings for Life achieve extraordinary impact.
We value experience, talent and results over formal qualifications. If you have the vision, energy and expertise to grow one of the most exciting event portfolios in the charity sector, we'd love to hear from you.
Wings for Life have one sole mission: to find a cure for spinal cord injury. As the charity partner of Red Bull, 100% of our fundraising goes directly to scientific research as they cover all our costs.

Working closely with the Senior Education Manager, the Education and Impact Manager and colleagues across the organisation, you'll grow participation across our school network, build strong and trusted relationships with schools, teachers and partners, ensure our flagship programmes run brilliantly, and create the engagement that enables more children and young people to become active citizens.
If you have a track record of leading delivery, building senior stakeholder relationships, managing teams and turning ambition into sustained engagement and growth, we'd love to hear from you.
This is a rare opportunity to take ownership of a critical organisational function, broaden your leadership and delivery portfolio, and play a leading role in the growth of an ambitious national charity.
We're looking for someone who brings:
-
Drive that delivers quality results
-
Comfort with intensive and high-volume delivery of network, programme and/or relationships
-
Enthusiasm for problem-solving, in a team and proactively in your role
-
An ability to learn fast and self-teach, from databases to how we communicate internally
-
A desire to develop your skills as a well-rounded member of a social impact organisation
Why Join Us?
This is a high-impact role with real scope to shape how Young Citizens grows, engages and retains its national network of schools, and how we deliver programmes that reach thousands of young people. You will work closely with senior leadership, take ownership of a key organisational function, lead and develop a team of Programme Leaders, and directly contribute to scaling our impact over the coming years.
You will join a purpose-led, ambitious and collaborative team committed to strengthening democracy by equipping young people with the skills, knowledge and confidence to participate actively in society.
We are a growing, agile organisation with a strong focus on learning and development. We invest in our people and provide real opportunities to build expertise, take ownership and grow alongside the organisation as we scale over the next three years.
We combine a results-driven culture with flexibility in how we work. Our benefits include 28+ days of annual leave (plus 8 bank holidays), volunteering days, office closure over the Christmas period, full pension contributions on the first 8%, and enhanced leave packages.
As a relatively small yet national team, you will have the opportunity to work across the organisation and closely with senior leadership, influencing how we improve our programmes, and see the direct impact of your work on our mission.

For more than ten years, Cambridge Science Centre (CSC) has been sparking curiosity and a love of STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) in young people across the East of England.
Job Description

Success in this role will depend on building strong relationships across the organisation and working collaboratively with managers, engagement teams and external freelancers to bring campaigns to life. Development opportunities will open in tandem with the Charity’s growth, with the potential to explore strategic planning, campaign development, media relations, and community outreach in the future.
Ultimately, you will play a critical role in shaping how people see, experience and remember Cambridge Science Centre. We're looking for someone who is curious, creative and eager to learn; someone who enjoys contributing ideas, takes pride in delivering high-quality work, and is excited to grow their skills as part of a small but influential team.
