Communications and fundraising jobs

Are you passionate about creating real change for young people across Wales?
Do you thrive on building strategic partnerships, influencing policy, and driving impactful education programmes? If so, we’ve got an exciting opportunity for you to lead the charge as our Wales Lead at Young Enterprise—a role where you’ll be the face of our mission, championing financial and enterprise education where it’s needed most.

Who We Are
We’re Young Enterprise – a national charity with a bold mission: to give every young person the skills, confidence, and mindset to thrive in the changing world of work.

For over 60 years, we’ve empowered more than 7 million young people through hands-on enterprise and financial education programmes. Whether it’s launching a student business or learning how to manage money, we help young people develop key life skills—teamwork, leadership, problem-solving, and resilience.

We’re a passionate, down-to-earth team of 90+ staff and 2,000+ volunteers who believe that every young person, regardless of background, deserves a fair start in life.

Why Join Us?
We think Young Enterprise is a great place to work—and we’re proud of our people-first culture. Here’s what you can expect:

 · A friendly and supportive team where your voice is heard

· A strong commitment to diversity and inclusion—we want everyone to feel they belong

· Generous holiday allowance and flexible working

· Cycle-to-work scheme, life assurance, and NHS top-up plan

· Ongoing learning and mentoring opportunities

· A chance to directly impact the lives of young people every single day

About the Role
As our Wales Lead, you’ll take on a high-impact, strategic role at the forefront of creating real change for young people across Wales. You won’t just be shaping our vision—you’ll be bringing it to life by building powerful partnerships, influencing key decision-makers, and championing the growth of our enterprise and financial education programmes in the places they’re needed most.

 This role is anything but ordinary. One day you could be speaking at a roundtable in the Senedd, the next you might be rallying new corporate partners, supporting a school’s first enterprise challenge, or welcoming a team of volunteers to inspire students during a school workshop. You’ll be a connector, an ambassador, and a changemaker—leading the charge to embed our work into Welsh policy and priorities while forging strong, purposeful relationships across Welsh Government, local authorities, schools, and community organisations.

 You’ll be the face and voice of Young Enterprise in Wales—energising a wide network of businesses, educators, funders, and volunteers to scale our impact and amplify our reach. With a strong focus on growth, fundraising, and influence, you’ll help us secure the resources and recognition needed to empower young people with the skills, confidence, and resilience they need for life, work, and the future.

We're especially keen to hear from candidates who are bilingual in Welsh and English, as this is a great asset for the role.

You’ll love this job if you are…

· A brilliant relationship-builder, confident working senior-level stakeholders and has a solid understanding of the political and policy landscape in Wales

· Excited by the idea of a fast paced varied role that will be truly transformational for young people in Wales

· Passionate about education, social mobility, and giving every young person a chance to shine

· A natural communicator—whether talking to Government, supporters, schools or young people

· Organised and able to juggle multiple projects (with a great sense of humour!)

· Self-motivated, adaptable, and happy working remotely but never alone—you’ll be part of a close-knit team

Key Responsibilities

· Lead the strategic growth of Young Enterprise in Wales

· Lead on policy awareness, ensuring the organisation remains responsive to Government priorities and commissioned reports

· Develop, maintain and lead strategic relationships with key stakeholders, including funders, local and national government, education bodies and partners

· Identify and secure  funding to support our work across Wales with an ambitious focus on growing income

· Deliver and support the rollout of YE programmes in schools and other settings

· Recruit, train and support volunteers—making sure they feel valued and inspired

· Represent YE in Wales externally at events and forums, promoting the organisations profile and influence across the education and third sector

· Focus your energy on reaching young people who face the greatest barriers to opportunity, making sure our work has the biggest impact where it’s needed most

· Build strong partnerships with businesses, educational settings and other local organisations to bring our programmes to life in both formal and informal settings

· Keep accurate records, track impact, and make sure safeguarding is front and centre

A few practical things:

· This is an active hands-on role—you’ll sometimes be lifting resources, setting up venues and travelling regularly (a car and full driving licence are essential)

· You’ll need to be a prolific networker, keen to develop new relationships across Wales to expand our reach

· You’ll need to be happy occasionally working evenings or weekends during peak delivery times

· Expect to be on your feet during some events or sessions—it’s all part of the fun!

Are you ready to join us?

A powerful campaigning organisation, Brain Tumour Research is the leading voice of the brain tumour community in the UK. Unique and much needed, we are the only national charity focused on finding a cure for all types of brain tumours. Our work focuses on campaigning to increase the national investment in research into brain tumours to £35 million per year, while fundraising to create a network of seven sustainable Brain Tumour Research Centres of Excellence, across the UK.

​

Brain tumours kill more children and adults under the age of 40 than any other cancer, yet just 1% of the national spend on cancer research has been allocated to this devastating disease since records began in 2002.  All of us at Brain Tumour Research are passionate about finding a cure for this devastating disease.  

​

Job Purpose:

This is a new role to transform our current “Supporter Care” team into one that leads our Individual Giving programme. At present the team is focused on thanking donors for gifts to our charity and supporters for undertaking challenges and events as well as organising our lab tours and tiles programme. The introduction of a major automation project in the charity will reduce this team’s workload whilst at the same time decreasing the amount of time taken to thank donors and supporters. Once that project is fully implemented we want this team to expand its remit to include a wider programme of proactively supporting our donors and supporters throughout their journey with the charity and thus to increase the amount raised through these channels.

​

This job will be a challenging one with a changing focus. The initial focus is very much process-driven – bedding in the automation and getting all of our processes humming so that everyone is thanked within one working week of their donation, but once that’s done the focus needs to move to both wider care of our supporters and growth of the income channel.

​

Reports to:

Director of Finance and Operations

(at some point in the future – possibly in about 12 months time the role and team may move to the Income Generation department)

Direct Reports: Supporter Care Supervisor and Fundraising Administrator

​

Requisite Skills and Experience:

Essential:

· Outstanding organisation skills.

· An excellent standard of written English and a good all-round communicator.

· Experience of working with a Fundraising Database/CRM as well as Microsoft Office, especially Word and Excel.

· Experience in manipulating and seeking insight from large data sets.

· Flexible in your approach to work, embracing change and development.

​

Desirable:

· Experience in running a individual giving programme.

· Experience of working with members of the public, especially those who may be going through current or recent traumatic experiences.

Main duties:

· To be the owner of all thanking processes so that every supporter and donor receives an appropriate thank you withing one working week of their donation or the end of their fundraising activity.

· To embed the new processes from our automation solution, recommending changes that are required and adapting other processes to ensure the most efficient overall system for all team members involved in thanking.

· To support and develop your direct reports so that they are working efficiently and effectively and have a rewarding role at the charity. To conduct regular 1-1s with them as well as quarterly reviews and annual appraisals.

· Ensure accurate recording of all processes and outputs from the team – primarily on our CRM database.

· To ensure that our Lab Tour and Tiles process is run effectively and efficiently. This process is managed by a member of the team, but remains the responsibility of the team manager.

· To develop our understanding of the data relating to our individual giving and to recommend

· To develop additional ways of valuing our supporters and donors through their journey with us (cards, phone calls etc).

· To develop additional ways of generating income from our individual donors (appeals etc).

· Deputise for colleagues as necessary to ensure that your team’s activities continue during periods of leave/absence.

· To comply with Brain Tumour Research’s internal policies, comply with relevant charity and other legislation and to undertake any other reasonable duties as required.
