A detailed job description and person specification is attached.

Closing date: 8th June 2022 (23.59)  

We have helped over half a million children and their families in the UK in the past 26 years by improving children’s experience of being in hospital and specialist care centres. We do this through visits from highly skilled paid performers, called Giggle Doctors and we work closely with NHS partners, play specialists and clinical teams. We also form part of the international Theodora family with its origins in Switzerland and are proud to have helped over 3 million children internationally.

Working with us means you will be helping children living with illness, disability and serious health challenges feel better – using the proven power of giggling. You will play a pivotal role, creating business partnerships to fund our mission and enabling our highly trained Giggle Doctors to visit more children in person or online, as well as raising awareness of our work.

Our Giggle Doctors increase opportunities for play, reduce distress and anxiety and give children back an element of control. They achieve this through improvised play which puts the child at the centre of the interaction and through the use of music, magic, storytelling, comedy and mime.

You can be part of this unique charity working with a small, committed team. Please get in touch with Holly to find out more.

We’re an award-winning charity that runs local learning centres in the heart of communities where the young people we support live. Our centres provide an innovative education programme which includes practical learning support and motivational and confidence-building activities for children and young people aged 7-18. Our aim is to inspire students from the least advantaged neighbourhoods to broaden their horizons and achieve their full potential.

As the UK’s leading university access organisation, our staff team is helping thousands of young people each year. From Autumn 2022 we will have thirty-nine centres and extension projects across England and Scotland, with ambitious plans to scale-up our provision further over the coming years.

You will be part of a highly successful fundraising team of nine fundraisers with an impressive track record of raising funds from trusts, foundations, corporates, universities, independent schools and individual donors. We have set ourselves the ambitious target of securing £11m+ in the coming year to support the rapid growth of the charity. We know we can achieve this - we are an established and successful team, with one of our recent initiatives being recognised with an international Gold Award for Excellence from CASE for a campaign run in partnership with the Universities of Edinburgh and Glasgow. Our corporate partnerships team has been recognised in several other national awards.

We are looking for either an ambitious recent graduate keen to launch a career in the charity sector, or someone with more experience interested in moving into a new role. From day one, you will be given the support you need to become an accomplished professional fundraiser. You will develop a range of skills including: prospect research, prospect pipeline management, bid writing, volunteer and event management, and donor stewardship.

As a charity with social mobility as its core objective, IntoUniversity is wholly committed to equality of opportunity. We work with children and young people from a diverse range of backgrounds, and we believe that our staff team should be similarly diverse and representative.

The more inclusive we are, the better our work will be, and we recognise that we have much more to do in this regard. We are committed to building a culture where students, staff and volunteers are valued for the unique people they are. We therefore encourage applications from candidates from as wide a range as possible of ethnic, cultural and social backgrounds. In particular, we actively and warmly welcome applications from Black, Asian and minority ethnic candidates, male candidates and candidates with a disability as they are currently under-represented within IntoUniversity.

If you believe that all young people deserve the chance to develop their talents regardless of their background and want to play a part in helping them succeed, then we would be delighted to hear from you.

We are looking for a self-motivated, driven and creative Corporate Partnerships Manager to join a dynamic and empowering fundraising team. A newly created role that will focus on new business and account manage existing partnerships to grow income for the brilliant work the RBLI does.

Research and secure high value corporate partners to support a wide range of RBLI projects events, activities and appeals including LifeWorks, RBLI's flagship employability course, Centenary Village Development and support of homeless veterans.

You will be an experienced corporate partnerships manager with a strong emphasis on securing new corporate partnerships and have strong account management skills.
