CoachBright is a social mobility movement. We are working towards a day where no young person’s background determines their future. Still now, in 2022, there is a postcode lottery. We are at a crisis point. If you are born poor, you are likely to stay poor. The chances of a young person succeeding in life are largely down to where they live.
Our mission is to instil young people with the independence and resilience to lead the lives they want. Now, more than ever, it is essential that young people from disadvantaged backgrounds get the support they need to achieve their goals. Covid-19 has further widened the gap between the pupils who have the income and resources to withstand educational disruption, during the past few months and those who don’t. That’s why we’re playing our part to narrow the gap and support a generation of pupils to be their best.
We are young, ambitious and optimistic, and are looking for someone as passionate as we are about creating a socially just world. If you get out of bed to transform the life chances of young people and want to shape and grow a values-driven social mobility organisation, we would love to hear from you.

We're expanding the range of grants and scholarships we award to disabled students and making sure that we have the right systems and processes in place to deliver them effectively, and you'll be in the driving seat.
Our current Grants Manager is retiring at the same time as we are expanding the number of financial awards we manage in house, and we are investing in a new grant management system to ensure that our application, review and award processes run efficiently for applicants, reviewers and funders. It's the perfect time to join us and make your mark.
You'll manage the whole process. You'll be the first point of contact for applicants, so your astute and empathetic communication skills will be important. And ideally you'll already have some knowledge or experience of the issues that our applicants experience. You'll undertake first stage reviews and you'll prepare summaries and recommendations to the selection panels who make final award decisions. You'll need to be organised and deadline driven, and be able to prepare and present information clearly and concisely. Your previous experience in grant management or something similar will be important.
You'll drive activity to monitor and evaluate the programmes and work closely with your finance and fundraising colleagues to ensure that financial records are robust and that funders are involved and informed. You'll also take the lead on building and communicating with the network of stakeholders we need to keep updated and informed about our programmes so that the information reaches the people who need us most.
We are a small team with big ambitions, and we are passionate about the people we support. We know many of our grantees by name. There are still too many obstacles that make it harder for disabled people to achieve education and employability goals and to ensure that we develop and deliver support where it is most needed, people with lived experience of the issues are represented across our trustee, staff and volunteer teams. As part of our disability confident commitment, we will guarantee you an interview if you have a disability and meet the essential parts of the job description.
If you join us, you'll be one of our staff team of five - being a tiny team means we all have to be self-starters but it also makes us a very collaborative bunch and we support each other to achieve our collective ambitions. We're hoping to hear from you soon. Thanks so much for your interest in the role.
