Strategy and development
- Always have an eye on new opportunities and ideas to inject into your projects, taking a test & learn approach.
- Contribute to team strategy and budgeting, working with the team to create exciting plans.
- Lead on relevant projects to improve how we do things – from stewardship & content, to processes & compliance.

Teamwork
- Actively contribute to meetings, sharing new ideas and learnings that might be useful for the wider team.

Make a real impact through creativity, community, and inclusion
Are you a dynamic events professional who thrives on building meaningful connections and delivering impactful experiences? Do you want to see the direct impact of your work in the community, whilst creating exciting opportunities for others?
At The Baked Bean Charity, we empower adults and young people with learning disabilities through performing arts, wellbeing programmes, and inclusive community opportunities. From theatre productions and DJ training to fitness and life skills, we offer inclusive, high-quality opportunities that build confidence, strengthen communication skills, and support independence.
We’re looking for an Events & Community Engagement Lead to take our events, outreach, and fundraising to the next level.
This is a senior, high-impact position at the heart of our organisation, offering the opportunity to shape how The Baked Bean Charity connects with the world. As Events & Community Engagement Lead, you will drive a dynamic programme of events, outreach, and partnerships that not only showcase our work, but actively challenge perceptions and champion inclusion.
You will take ownership of the strategic planning and delivery of our full events portfolio - from Theatre in Education performances and community workshops to respite holidays, fundraising events, and external commissions.

You’ll support and mentor staff, recruit and induct volunteers, fostering a collaborative, inclusive, and high-performing environment.
This role requires both strategic planning capabilities, as well as skills in organisation and hands-on delivery. One day you might be developing long-term engagement plans or writing a funding proposal; the next, you could be delivering or presenting at an event, supporting students, or building new partnerships in the community.
We’re looking for someone who is both strategic and creative, with the confidence and autonomy to lead, and the passion to make a difference.
You’ll have:
- Proven experience in events management, community engagement, or fundraising
- A track record of delivering events from concept to completion

- Understanding of funding landscapes and partnerships
We want to hear from you if you’re someone who:
- Believes deeply in inclusion, equality, and social impact
- Is proactive, adaptable, and solutions-focused
- Leads with energy, empathy, and integrity
- Thrives in a fast-paced, people-focused environment
- Is excited to champion the voices of people with learning disabilities
Why join us?
- Lead work that has real, visible impact on people's lives
- Help shape the future of our community engagement and events programme
- Work in a creative, collaborative, supportive and purpose driven environment
