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.
