You’ll need to be happy occasionally working evenings or weekends during peak delivery times
Expect to be on your feet during some events or sessions—it’s all part of the fun!

About the Role

This is a role where you’ll really see the difference you make.

As Educational Partnerships Manager, you’ll work across Dorset and South Coast of Hampshire, building partnerships with schools, colleges, youth organisations and community groups—particularly in areas where opportunities are hardest to come by.

You’ll be right in the mix: planning events, delivering programmes, supporting volunteers and connecting with school staff to make sure young people have access to our inspiring enterprise and financial education experiences.

You’ll be a key driver of our Inspiring Futures programme—helping young people break down barriers and imagine bigger futures.

It’s a varied, people-focused role with loads of room for creativity, independence and collaboration. Whether you’re visiting a school, chatting with a funder, or supporting a trade fair, you’ll be helping young people build skills that will last a lifetime.

You’ll love this job if you are…

• A brilliant relationship-builder, confident working with teachers, volunteers, and community leaders

• A natural communicator—whether leading a session in a classroom or inspiring a room of volunteers
• Organised and able to juggle multiple projects (with a great sense of humour!)
• Self-motivated, adaptable, and happy working remotely but never alone—you’ll be part of a close-knit regional team
• Excited by the idea of doing a job that combines delivery, relationship-building, fundraising and volunteering

Key Responsibilities

• Build and grow relationships with schools, colleges, youth clubs and local communities
• Focus on expanding our reach in areas of multiple deprivation and underrepresentation
• Deliver and support the rollout of YE programmes in schools and other settings
• Recruit, train and support volunteers—making sure they feel valued and inspired
• Work with your regional team to meet shared goals and celebrate local impact
• Help secure local funding by supporting fundraising efforts and managing project deliverables
• Support the planning of events, trade fairs and celebrations for young people
• Keep accurate records, track impact, and make sure safeguarding is front and centre

A few practical things:

• This is a hands-on role—you’ll sometimes be lifting resources, setting up venues and travelling regularly (a car and full driving licence are essential)
• You’ll need to be happy occasionally working evenings or weekends during peak delivery times
• Expect to be on your feet during some events or sessions—it’s all part of the fun!
