THE PROGRAMME

The Platform Cricket Programme is an exciting initiative aimed at supporting more young people from deprived and BAME backgrounds in London to develop in and through cricket. The areas we work in bring us into contact with some of the most marginalised, vulnerable, and disadvantaged children in the UK.

We create new “Pop Up” youth cricket clubs in areas where there is currently little to no provision, working directly with schools to recruit new participants. These activities are set-up to remove as many of the known barriers to voluntary participation as possible but importantly, they also feature opportunities for young people to positively replace and address the reasons why they may otherwise fall into poor health, antisocial behaviour, and crime in later years.

The community-based activities aim to incubate young peoples’ interest in the game and develop their skills adequately so that transition into an established, mainstream cricket club becomes more likely from 11 years old and upwards.

In 2020-21 we worked with 18,378 children in 322 schools across 16 London Boroughs. 927 of those children took up a place in our community provision, of which 76% were from a BAME background, 42% were female and 38% were from a disadvantaged background.

THE ROLE

Location: Central London
Hours: 37.5 hours per week (some flexibility towards working hours required)
 

We are seeking candidates for a Fundraising Manager role that will secure the income required to drive the charity through its next phase of growth and development. 

The role is ideal for a motivated self-starter who enjoys challenge, a high degree of autonomy and interaction with the charity’s frontline services and beneficiaries.  

The postholder will be responsible for:

• A fundraising target of £200-£400K
• Applications for annual and multi-year grants
• Developing and managing relationships with funders and supporters
• Contributing to effective administrative processes
• Improving Platform Cricket’s profile, reputation and standing

Whilst we will support staff with strong governance and management alongside planned professional development, our Fundraising Manager will be the face of our organisation to a range of important partners and stakeholders. We therefore require candidates that possess:

• 3-5 years’ experience in a fundraising role
• A personable manner, at ease in a wide variety of environments, with confident communication skills
• Strong IT, administrative and organisational skills
• An ability to work remotely to self-determined project-management deadlines
• A practical understanding of marketing, communications, and social media

It is also desirable, although not essential, that the postholder has a knowledge and passion for sport and physical activity, believing in its ability to have a positive impact on young people and their communities.

We welcome approaches from candidates who are interested in taking up our Fundraising Manager role through an agreement which allows them to maintain a self-employed status.

Platform Cricket is committed to the safeguarding of young people and as such all successful applicants will be expected to either hold or undergo an Enhanced DBS Check.

As Head of Fundraising Quality & Compliance, you will lead on providing fundraising regulatory expertise to the organisation, working with teams to ensure our fundraising is open, honest and legal – in line with our commitment to the Fundraising Regulator. A key part of the role is the sharing of clear and easy to understand information to support teams’ understanding of what is expected of them from a regulatory and best practice perspective, and in doing so help create the environment for maximising income and influence.

To help achieve this, you will have a strong knowledge of factors shaping fundraising regulation and an excellent understanding of data protection as it impacts fundraising and marketing activities. You’ll be skilled at working collaboratively to deliver best practice fundraising outcomes and in considering the needs and wishes of our supporters to create an outstanding supporter experience.

We want to do this because we know greater diversity will lead to even greater results for children.

ADHD UK is a newly founded small, high-growth, mental health charity with big ambitions. We’re looking for someone to help us evolve, expand our services and change the futures for people with ADHD. We’re focused on hiring the right personality rather than on a list of technical skills and experience. Therefore this could be a great opportunity for anyone interesting in progressing a career in the charity sector - including high calibre new graduates, those with charity experience, and career switchers with a history of success.

We’ve been founded by a team that has previously grown a charity from nothing to significance with a growth rate of between 30 and 50% a year for five years. We need someone to help us achieve that again.

ADHD is a relatively common (1 in 20) condition that is very poorly understood. People are being let down and not getting the effective help they need at almost every life stage – in school, in further education, at work. There are impacts to relationships, friendships and family. We’ve focused our work into five main pillars: support, information, awareness, advocacy and research.

Based in Central London (Note: We’re currently moving so exact central London location to be finalised). There is also an option to work from home (Almost exclusively or part-time).

The Role

This is an eclectic role that suits someone who enjoys the challenge of multiple projects and learning new skills to achieve their goals.

Responsible for all aspects of marketing and fundraising. Part of a small team of three people (including yourself).

Our main marketing outlets are direct marketing, email newsletters, online advertising, the website and responding to inbound fundraising inquiries (emails, phone calls & letters). We are also looking for creative marketing fundraising ideas.

Your role will include managing:

• Direct marketing and e-campaigns
• Monthly membership letters
• Campaigns to various stakeholders. Including: clinicians, MPs, teachers, employers, and the public
• Our $100,000 google AdWords account & other advertising - writing adverts, managing campaigns and measuring output
• Managing and writing our fundraising information
• Fundraiser Support
• Content writing to attract an audience and look to convert to fundraisers
• Social media management (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter)
• Building relationships with those affected by ADHD, with major donors (via direct marketing, online and phone), and with grant giving organisations.
• Managing our database of donors and contacts
• Collating monthly statistics, creating a presentation and presenting to the board of trustees

You will be in trustee meetings and will have the opportunity to participate in the conversation to present your views & opinions on almost all aspects of running the charity.

We have a passionate audience who care deeply about the work we do. Your role is to build relationships with people, either personally or through smart systems and strategies, with the aim of converting a one-off fundraiser into a regular fundraiser, converting a single donation to us being a “favourite charity”. It is about taking each interaction someone has with us and using it to build that relationship that makes us special to them.

Skills

It is important to us that the successful candidate is:

• Extremely comfortable with IT. We leverage technology to be more effective. You should be happy to try new technological solutions. We expect you to be already familiar with MS Windows and MS Office
• Able to build rapport and relationships with people quickly over email and phone
• A self-starter and effective problem solver
• Very strong written English

You do not need to have any specific fundraising or charity experience. You do not need to have any knowledge of ADHD.

Additional Benefits

• Bonus scheme
• Flexibility in working hours
• Ability to work from home (including full time working from home)

Do you want to improve the lives of people with disabilities and vulnerable people?
