Communications and events fundraiser jobs
About CoppaFeel!
CoppaFeel! are the UK’s only youth focused breast cancer awareness charity, and we’re on a mission to get every 18-24 year old checking their chest. We educate people on the signs of breast cancer and encourage them to check their chests monthly, so that if they notice something unusual they are empowered to contact their GP and advocate for themselves.
We do this because when diagnosed early, breast cancer treatments are more effective and survival rates are higher. Early detection can save lives.
Breast cancer does not need to be detected late, and as long as we are here and continue to be supported by people like you, we will do all we can to make sure this doesn’t continue to happen.
The Role
The role of Challenge Events Assistant will sit within the CoppaFeel! Challenge Events team, in the Fundraising Department. The Challenge Events team’s work is divided into third-party events - which includes any mass participation challenge event a supporter could take on (think half marathons, marathons, swims, cycles, treks, obstacle courses and more!), and bespoke events - namely our iconic CoppaTrek with Gi! Series.
Third-party events at CoppaFeel! are going through a very exciting period of growth at the moment, having gone from raising £140k in 2024, to over £400k in 2025 and planning to raise close to £600k in 2026. Therefore, we are looking for a passionate new team member to take on the role of Challenge Events Assistant to support the fast-growing portfolio.
You will mostly work alongside our Sporting Challenge Events Manager to support CoppaFeel!’s Sporting Challenge Events portfolio. Our portfolio is growing every year and contains many of the most iconic events out there, like the TCS London Marathon, Hackney Half, Great North Run, Royal Parks Half Marathon and London Landmarks Half Marathon to name but a few!
Whilst our third-party events will be your main focus, you may also have the opportunity to support our iconic CoppaTrek! programme.
In this role, you will be the first point of contact for our third-party events participants, providing excellent supporter experience and building relationships whilst offering motivation and fundraising advice. Alongside delivering outstanding supporter care, you will also handle essential administrative tasks to ensure the smooth running of our day-to-day operations and so that our events go off without a hitch.
This role does require some evening and weekend work - although not behind the laptop! Instead you could be on the iconic Tower Bridge, setting up flags, banners and queuing up some bangers ready to bring immaculate CoppaFeel! vibes to tens of thousands of runners taking on a half marathon. So get ready to whoop, cheer and spread the chest checking messages to the masses! Please bear in mind that as part of this role, you will be expected to travel and may have to stay away from home on occasion. Should you be required to work on weekends, you will be entitled to time off in lieu.
This is a hybrid role, with the expectation that you will attend the London office at least 2 days per week. You will also be required to attend the office for quarterly team meetings, department meetings and in person training. We will provide plenty of notice for when you are required to be in for these purposes
This is a brilliant opportunity for someone to join our growing fundraising team and get invaluable experience within the charity events sector - all whilst helping to shape the future of CoppaFeel!’s challenge events offering! You'll be at the forefront of our mission to educate and empower young people about the importance of early detection of breast cancer, and therefore we are looking for an enthusiastic and compassionate person, who thrives in a busy environment.
This is a fixed term contract for 18 months.

Who we are
Not all young people have the same opportunities in life.
Caudwell Youth exists to level the playing field for young people at risk.
They may be care experienced, have mental health challenges, be neurodivergent or be at risk of exploitation or offending.
Caudwell Youth is a dynamic new charity which has just celebrated its third birthday.
What we do
Caudwell Youth shapes young people’s futures by providing person-centred support to at risk 11 to 24-year-olds through volunteer-led mentoring for up to 18-months, alongside a targeted intervention programme.
Our vision is to help every young person at-risk in the UK. We give young people the time, trust and support they need to shape a positive future, no matter their starting point.
Our mentoring service is designed to ensure every young person feels safe, heard and supported. Each young person gains a trusted adult (a trained volunteer) who meets with them once a week to support them as they take steps towards a more positive future.
This year, we have supported more than 400 young people.
Our fundraising
We have a compelling fundraising proposition. We were founded by billionaire philanthropist John Caudwell, who has pledged to match all donations and fundraising at 33%.
Our mentoring service is delivering exceptional outcomes for young people, and we are ambitious for the future.
This is a crucial time for Caudwell Youth’s fundraising function, as we are set to embark on a new strategy for national growth in the new year. For the financial year just gone, grant income accounted for around 28% of our fundraising revenue.
Our aim is to grow our charity sustainably, while continuing to meet the evolving needs of at-risk young people in ways that are effective and life-changing. This role will be a key part of that journey.
What we're looking for
We are looking for an experienced grants, trusts and foundations fundraiser who can hit the ground running, both in solidifying and owning our valuable relationships with existing grant and trust fundrers and in exploring new opportunities.
You will also lead on the evaluation of our service impact across the organisation, gathering, analysing and presenting data to illustrate the valuable outcomes our services have for at-risk young people.
You will be a key team member in a dynamic and growing organisation and will help ensure the charity achieves its aims and objectives and fulfils its fundraising plan effectively.
More information about the role
This role is home based, but you need to be able to meet with funders and our small but dynamic fundraising team.
