About M7 Education

At M7 Education, our mission is simple — to level the educational playing field by making experiential learning accessible to every student. We believe one school trip can change a student’s entire outlook on education, yet too many miss out due to financial barriers.

We provide fully funded school trips and workshops for high pupil premium schools across England and Wales, taking care of both the funding and the logistics so that teachers can focus on inspiring their students.

We’re a small, dedicated team with big ambitions. We work flexibly, think creatively, and collaborate closely to make learning come alive for as many children as possible.

The Role

We’re looking for an enthusiastic and driven Fundraising and Events Lead to join our growing team. This is a new and exciting opportunity to shape the future of M7 Education’s fundraising strategy and be the driving force behind our next phase of growth.

You’ll take the lead in developing new income streams, building strong relationships with donors and fundraisers, and creating inspiring fundraising events and campaigns. Working closely with the CEO, you’ll have the freedom to innovate, test new ideas, and lay the groundwork for a future fundraising function within the charity.

This is a hands-on role that’s perfect for someone with experience in charity fundraising and event management who’s eager to make a tangible difference in education.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and deliver a comprehensive fundraising strategy to increase income across multiple channels.
  • Manage relationships with individual fundraisers, supporting their journeys and ensuring excellent stewardship.
  • Plan, coordinate, and deliver fundraising events — both third-party events (such as the SuperHalfs series) and M7-run initiatives.
  • Research, write, and submit compelling grant applications to trusts and foundations.
  • Lead creative fundraising campaigns that engage new supporters and promote M7 Education’s mission.
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with key stakeholders, sponsors, and community partners.
  • Monitor fundraising performance, prepare reports, and evaluate impact to inform future growth.
  • Contribute to the development of a future fundraising team, including volunteers and, in time, staff members.

Person Specification

Essential:

  • Minimum of 3 years’ experience in charity fundraising, with a track record of generating income.
  • Proven experience in event planning and delivery.
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
  • Strong organisational and project management abilities.
  • Confident working independently and taking initiative in a small, fast-moving team.
  • Ability to think creatively and strategically about income growth.

Desirable:

  • Experience in the education or children’s charity sector.
  • Skills in communications, social media, or email campaigns.
  • Understanding of sporting events and community fundraising (e.g. marathons, challenges).
  • Experience writing successful grant or trust funding applications.

What We Offer

  • £28,000–£31,000 (pro rata) depending on experience
  • Part-time (4–5 days per week)
  • 30 days annual leave (pro rata) + additional time off during certain school holidays
  • Paid professional development opportunities
  • Highly flexible working environment (remote-first)
  • Time off in lieu for event days
  • Opportunity to shape and grow M7 Education’s fundraising function from the ground up

Our Culture

We’re a small team with high goals — adaptable, collaborative, and full of ideas. We value initiative and creativity, giving team members the freedom to experiment and test new approaches. If you’re someone who enjoys autonomy, thrives in a dynamic environment, and wants to see your work make a direct impact on children’s lives, you’ll fit right in.
