36% of children from disadvantaged backgrounds leave primary school in England each year unable to read to the expected standard. Innovations for Learning (IFL) is a charity focused on using technology to close this literacy gap through a unique online reading support programme called TutorMate. 

About Innovations for Learning

Innovations for Learning (IfL) is a small but growing charity, which is working to ensure that every child in the UK acquires the literacy skills they need for their to thrive and fulfil their potential. Many children fall behind with reading simply because they lack the opportunity to practise. TutorMate addresses this problem by using a bespoke internet platform to pair volunteer tutors from corporate organisations with struggling pupils. TutorMate has been proven to improve the literacy outcomes, confidence and reading enjoyment of young children from disadvantaged backgrounds.

Our model is to partner with local and national businesses which recruit their own employees as volunteer readers and provide funding for the programme. TutorMate pairs struggling children (5- to 7-year-olds) with adult volunteers who use a bespoke internet platform and a voice connection to link – from their workplace or home – to a dedicated classroom laptop for 30 minutes a week, during the school day, over an entire academic year.  Up to ten children in each Year 1 or Year 2 class participate, giving the programme a reach and scale that no school is able to achieve with parent or community volunteers.

We have set ourselves an ambitious target of supporting 4,000 children by 2024. By securing 25% of our income from trusts and foundations,  this role will be pivotal in ensuring we meet this target.

About the role

IFL is seeking a highly motivated, proactive Trusts and Foundations Fundraiser to create creative, compelling and impactful bids. You’ll be a passionate, entrepreneurial fundraising professional who can get ‘under the skin’ of our work and is keen to make your mark in a fast-growing organisation.

You will develop and manage a funding pipeline by investing in thorough research and relationship cultivation, and you will thrive in working with funders and partners on a day-to-day basis. You’ll be a self-starter and have high standards for yourself and others.

Reporting directly to the Executive Director, you will generate income from new and existing trusts and foundations to fund 25 % of the work of the charity (2022-23 = £162k target).

Head up the team delivering one of the most impressive community products in the sector.

We are looking for someone to lead the team responsible for the strategy and delivery of an 8-figure community product.

With two Senior Managers reporting to you, each leading a geographical region, and a team of 75 in total across the country, this post is the main strategic lead pulling together the campaign.

There are two key aims of this role over the 9 month contract:

1. Building on incredible foundations, to conduct a strategic review of the product and the team, devising a refreshed strategy and suggestions for any changes to improve and tidy the current system
2. Ensure the team’s successful delivery of the 2022 fundraising campaign

The Interim Head of Community will bring a consultancy-style approach to the assignment, in order to make a strategic assessment of the future needs of the team to reinvigorate the already hugely successful and high-performing team.

There will be a permanent need for this role, and the Interim may decide to stay on in the role, but we are equally happy to hear from candidates who prefer short-term contracts.

Previously this role has been the media lead for all TV and radio appearances – the incumbent will have the opportunity to take this on, but the media side can also be covered internally if the incoming postholder prefers to stay out of the limelight!

Essential criteria

• Experience leading a national community or regional fundraising team
• Extensive experience in writing and delivering fundraising strategies
• Ability to get to grips with a large, complex team quickly and efficiently in order to immediately make positive impact
• Exceptional leader with the ability to manage vast teams and large budgets

Migrant Help is a leading charity that has been established for over 50 years and delivers a range of support and advice services to migrants across the UK.

We are currently looking for a Community Hubs Coordinator to join our team on a Fixed Term contract. There will be a potential for the role to be made permanent.

We place a high value on employees in relation to the work that they do and the benefits the organisation offers, with an ethos of being a Great Place to Work. 

These are some of the benefits we offer:

• Flexibility and work life balance
• Enhanced family friendly provisions

​

The Role:

Migrant Help is looking for a Community Hubs Coordinator to lead on a new project supporting locally run community hubs and networks that provide services to our clients. We know community hubs offer a great number of benefits to our clients and this role will work with existing hubs across the UK to identify opportunities to maximise support and impact.

Through recent research we have discovered a potential gap in how hubs currently coordinate and work collaboratively, and the postholder will be expected to explore this further and work with hubs to find a possible solution. This may involve looking at ways to share resources or how to access activities such as education.

The postholder will grow and develop this project and work with our operational teams to look at ways of promoting the hubs to our clients at the earliest opportunity so they can better access support local to them.

​

Duties and Responsibilities:

• Build and manage positive relationships with existing hub providers.
• Work collaboratively to identify solutions.
• Set up evaluation and monitoring processes to examine the impact of the project.
• Coordinate and deliver communications with hubs as appropriate.
• Provide reports on progress and activity to management and trustees.
• Manage the delivery of a Kent based hub set up and run by Migrant Help.
• Act as key contact for the hubs project.
• Assess and manage risks (safeguarding and other) as they arise, escalating where appropriate.
• Liaise regularly with relevant internal teams to ensure project objectives are achieved.
• Represent Migrant Help at external meetings or presentations about the project.
• Sharing with senior management new ideas or suggestions for improvements.
• Monitor the costs, budget and spend, working with the Deputy Director of Strategic Programmes.

​
