About Us

For over 30 years, The Money Charity has been the UK’s Financial Capability charity. We proactively provide education, information, advice and guidance to people of all ages, helping them to manage their money well and increase their Financial Wellbeing. We believe that being on top of your money as a part of everyday life reduces stress and hardship, helps you achieve your goals and live a happier life as a result, so we empower people across the UK to build the skills, knowledge, attitudes and behaviours to make the most of their money throughout their lives.

Our strategy for 2025-28 includes the aim to double our workshop delivery to children and young people, which is why we are looking to grow our network of consultants.

We are a small, passionate team with a big reach and an open mind, committed to quality, accessibility and inclusiveness.

About The Opportunity

Money Workshops are the core of what we do. Through these sessions, we reach over 40,000 people per year across the UK with our vital financial wellbeing messages. 

This offering is split between two areas of work: Workshops for children and young people (our Financial Education offer), and Sessions & Programmes for adults (what we call Financial Wellbeing Training). We are looking for multiple Freelance Consultants to deliver to one or both of these two groups. Please see the job descriptions below for more information about each opportunity.

The Workshops are interactive, engaging and relevant, covering topics including budgeting, saving, borrowing, investing, pensions and much more. In the majority of cases, they are also fully-funded (free) to the organisations we partner with, keeping barriers to access as low as possible.

As well as delivering the Workshops, you will play a role in promoting them, which means you should be able to forge strong relationships with stakeholders and should be confident in reaching out to new contacts. This will involve sending marketing emails to education establishments and charities, reaching out to existing contacts, and possibly the use of social media to promote the workshops. It also means Consultants can control their own diaries and commitments, meaning that this is an ideal opportunity for those looking for flexibility.

This is an exciting opportunity to work with and learn from a team of expert consultants and staff, make a difference to your community and help The Money Charity to reach more people with our life changing financial wellbeing messages.

This role involves a significant amount of travel within your region, and possibly the UK, therefore willingness to travel is essential and a valid UK driving licence and use of a car is required.

The Money Charity is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of young people and vulnerable adults and expects all staff, contractors and volunteers to share this commitment. A satisfactory Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service Check is required for this opportunity.

We will be hosting a webinar on Monday 13th October at 2:30pm where you can find out more about the opportunity, and ask any questions. The link to sign up to the webinar can found on the job advert on our website.

Closing date: 17:00, Tuesday 21st October 2025.

We will review applications as they come in, and may close applications early, so please apply as soon as possible.

Interviews: 

First round (virtual initial chat) - week beginning 3rd November 2025

Second round (face to face group interview) - week beginning 17th November 2025

The application details can be found on our website or on the job descriptions below for each opportunity.
