About Schoolreaders:

Schoolreaders was launched in 2013 in Bedfordshire to support child literacy through the recruitment of volunteers to provide one-to-one reading support for children in primary schools across the country.  Before the pandemic over 12,700 children in over 650 schools were receiving weekly reading sessions from a Schoolreaders volunteer.  Pre Covid-19, one in four children was leaving primary school unable to read to the expected Government standard.  Many children have fallen even further behind with their reading due to school closures. Our service is needed more than ever before with 10% of primary schools across the country asking Schoolreaders for reading volunteers. Building on past successes, we now have ambitious expansion plans to address the need.

What you can expect:

An exciting and rewarding role where you can develop your own creative marketing and communications skills whilst making your mark on a fast-growing national children’s charity. Schoolreaders is a highly professional charity which values every team-member’s contribution to our team efforts. We offer a generous holiday allowance including an office wide closure at Christmas and birthday leave, enhanced sick pay, an employee assistance programme, plus training and development opportunities. If you want to be part of a great team in a fast-moving, welcoming environment whilst making a huge impact on children’s literacy across the country, this could be the perfect role for you!

Are you a values-driven, hand-on leader with broad fundraising and communications knowledge? Do you have strong experience in grant fundraising? Do you want a diverse, exciting role where you can work from home? We’d love to hear from you.

A leading and award-winning early childhood education charity, Sabre works in close partnership with the Government of Ghana to deliver Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4.2 on universal access to quality pre-primary education. Sabre is highly recognised for its ‘Brighter Futures Programme’, which is delivered through building playful school environments and providing transformational teacher training on play-based learning for young children.

You will have proven fundraising experience and leadership skills, experience of managing and developing staff, and a passion for early years education.  You will be a talented leader and relationship manager who is highly motivated by the prospect of stepping into this maternity cover to continue shaping fundraising and communications for Sabre Education at a pivotal stage in the charity’s growth.

The role requires excellent relationship building and communication skills with our donor community, deep fundraising expertise across income streams, and a specific background in trusts / institutional fundraising. This is an exciting opportunity for someone with strategic drive who is looking to step into a senior leadership role with a dynamic international charity during this maternity cover, and who brings creativity and the ability to inspire others to support our world-class programmes.
