Cats Protection is committed to safeguarding children and adults at risk and protecting anyone that comes into contact with us from harm.  We expect all employees and volunteers to share this commitment.

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 UK

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 and this role, with responsibility for stewarding and nurturing our existing corporate partnerships, will be crucial to ensuring that we have sufficient volunteers to achieve this target.

About the role

Are you looking for a new challenge? Are you proactive, self-motivated and keen to develop your influencing and communication skills to help us retain, grow and unlock partnerships for the benefit of disadvantaged children?

This new role is an exciting opportunity for someone to make their mark in a fast-growing charity.  You will be responsible for retaining, nurturing and growing our existing, diverse portfolio of 70+  corporate partnerships. You will maximise corporate income and deliver excellent partnership stewardship and a great supporter experience. You will play a lead role in the annual partnership renewal process, spotting opportunities to increase partner engagement and proactively identifying ways to unlock additional income. You will also have some responsibility for onboarding new partners, in collaboration with the Tutor Support Team.

Are you passionate about helping others, as well as making real and lasting change? Are you a successful fundraiser, with strong funder relationships and an appetite to enable real change in a small ambitious charity? 

MKHP is a network of organisations who connect to prevent and end homelessness in Milton Keynes. MKHP is ambitious. We encourage and facilitate innovative ideas on how to end homelessness, with a focus on prevention rather than cure.

There has never been a better time to join Milton Keynes Homelessness Partnership (MKHP). The charity is in an exciting period, during its formative years, and our new strategy needs a dynamic, self-motivated and experienced Fundraising Manager to turn our vision of preventing and ending homelessness in Milton Keynes into reality. 

Reporting directly to our Chief Executive, the Fundraising Manager is a pivotal role in our small staff team, enabling MKHP to deliver its purpose and strategic priorities. The role’s overarching responsibilities are to develop and deliver MKHP’s fundraising strategy across trusts, foundations and other grant giving bodies.  The postholder will extend the strategy to include individual and corporate supporters, as well as inspire our local community to support MKHP as their charity of choice.

The key role responsibilities are to:

• Develop and deliver MKHP’s fundraising strategy to achieve agreed income targets across all activities
• Research potential grant and trust funding opportunities (local and national); work with relevant staff on the development of applications/proposals, building relationships with and reporting to supporters
• Ensure each funding application/proposal meets the criteria, deadlines and requirements of the trust/ grant fund and represents the values of the organisation
• Promote corporate fundraising opportunities within the local business community, engage with and develop relationships with companies and staff teams
• Ensure that all fundraising activities are cost effective, in line with strategic priorities and with the best possible ROI and profit
• Confidently present the key messages and organisational values of MKHP
• Represent for MKHP at networking events, community events and speaking at these where required
• Build a strong collaborative network, communicating with a wide range of supporters and stakeholders, including exploring and leading collaborative or joint funding prospects on behalf of MKHP
• Liaise with wider team to generate press and social media coverage and news in support of planned fundraising initiatives
• Ensure all relevant staff and volunteers are briefed on fundraising activities
• Acknowledge donations adhering to the SLA (service level agreement) set within the organisation, following fundraising codes of practice
• Ensure accurate records are maintained according to GDPR (General Data Protection Regulations)
• Be aware of and adhere to the Institute of Fundraising Codes of Conduct and Codes of Best Practice and GDPR
• Regularly report to the Chief Executive on income generation/fundraising activities, and opportunities in an established funding pipeline as well as prepare reports to the Board of Trustees as required
• Complete other duties as required, commensurate with the role.

We expect a real commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion, ensuring the voice of individuals with lived experience is really heard. So, if you are a passionate, committed individual who understands the complexities of working in an environment with hard-to-reach communities, are great at what you do and want to influence change, then we want to hear from you!
