This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys building relationships, creating memorable supporter experiences and delivering engaging fundraising activity.
Working closely with the Head of Events and Community Fundraising, you'll play a pivotal role in growing community fundraising income and supporter engagement across the charity.

Most importantly, you'll be someone who enjoys building lasting relationships, has excellent communication skills and is motivated by delivering outstanding supporter experiences. You'll be comfortable managing multiple priorities, confident working independently and excited by the opportunity to help grow an ambitious fundraising programme.
Why Join Brain Research UK?
As a small and ambitious charity, Brain Research UK offers the opportunity to make a genuine impact while developing your career within a supportive and collaborative team. You'll play a key role in helping fund vital neurological research that improves lives across the UK and beyond.

WHO WE ARE
We are SPEAR, a charity working tirelessly to end homelessness across South West London and beyond. We believe homelessness should be rare, brief, and non-recurring, and we work every day to make that a reality. Our services include street outreach, assessment hubs, supported accommodation, and tenancy support, helping people move off the streets and into safe, secure housing. We take a person-centred, trauma-informed approach, building trust and supporting people to achieve long-term stability and independence. You will be part of a passionate, skilled team dedicated to ending homelessness. We offer a supportive environment where you can grow your career while making a meaningful impact.
YOUR ROLE
We are looking for a passionate and organised individual to join our team as a Health Link Events Co-ordinator. This is a varied and rewarding role where you will plan and deliver community health day events across SW London boroughs, bringing together NHS partners, community organisations, and volunteers to improve health outcomes for people experiencing or at risk of homelessness.
Alongside coordinating events, you will play a meaningful part in supporting and advocating for our clients — facilitating service user involvement groups and making sure the voices of those we work with are truly heard and valued. Building warm, trusted relationships with clients, many of whom have complex needs, will be at the heart of what you do.
We are looking for someone who is empathetic, non-judgmental, and trauma-informed, with a genuine commitment to social justice and making a difference. You will be an effective communicator and skilled coordinator, able to manage multiple priorities, support and inspire volunteers, and build strong working relationships with a wide range of partners. Resilience, adaptability, and a person-centred approach are essential.
This is a 12-month fixed-term contract based primarily at our Twickenham (TW1) office, with regular travel across to support our communities in Richmond, Wandsworth and Kingston boroughs. Occasional travel to Croydon, Sutton, and Merton may also be required.
