ABOUT LUMOS
Lumos is an international children’s charity founded in 2005 by the author J.K. Rowling to end the harmful practice of institutionalisation of children. Lumos’s mission is to fight for every child’s right to a family by transforming care systems around the world. Our vision is for all children to grow up in safe and loving families.
Despite clear evidence of the harms of institutionalisation, an estimated 5.4 million children worldwide continue to live in institutions. Separated from their families and communities, these children are deprived of the love, attention and opportunities they need to thrive. Our three-pronged approach is to prevent family separation, to protect children and to promote care reform. We’ve made important progress in closing harmful institutions and reuniting children with their families. And where children are unable to live with their birth families, we promote alternative family-based care, such as kinship care and quality foster care. Thanks to our tireless efforts alongside many other champions of care reform, the harms of institutionalisation are now more widely understood. A global movement is underway and the UN, the EU and some large development agencies have joined individual countries in pledging to change how they care for vulnerable children. We are committed to ensuring that global policy commitments are translated into local action, leading to sustainable change for vulnerable children.

Actively Interviewing
This organisation is scheduling interviews as applications come in. They're ready to hire as soon as they find the right person. Don't miss your opportunity, apply now!
About you
You’re entrepreneurial, proactive, and relationship-led. You treat your work like it’s your own business - spotting opportunities, testing ideas, chasing results.
If you come from a big-charity, email-heavy world, this probably isn’t for you. But if you thrive in fast-paced environments, prefer the phone to the inbox, and enjoy building personal, scalable supporter experiences - we’d love to talk.
In the last three years, we’ve bought and built a swim events series, doubled our unrestricted income, and grown a committed community of 3,000 annual fundraisers. We want someone who’s excited to be part of that kind of ride.
You’ll bring experience, strong instincts, and a deep understanding of supporter journeys. You’ll enjoy digging into detail - like optimising email split-tests - but also stepping back to shape the big picture. Perhaps you even like outdoor swimming.
About us
We’re a Founder-led charity working to solve learn-to-swim for disabled children - and we plan to do it in the next 10 years.
We own and operate some of the UK’s most iconic outdoor swims - including the Dart10k and Bantham Swoosh - and we’ve built a growing series of 24-hour relay swims in lakes and lidos. Our swim events raise over £1m a year, with 80% of that income unrestricted. Our community of 3,000 fundraisers is at the heart of that success.
We’re a small team that moves fast. Strategy and delivery go hand in hand. We test ideas, learn quickly, and cover a lot of ground. You’ll need to enjoy that kind of environment to thrive here.
The role
As our Challenge Events / Supporter Journey / Fundraiser Experience Manager (call it what you like), you’ll lead the supporter journey for our 3,000 challenge event fundraisers - making sure every interaction is personal, motivating and meaningful.
You’ll plan and deliver comms across all channels, from automated emails to personal messages and calls. You’ll ensure people feel seen, valued, and inspired - and help them understand the difference they’re making.
Your goals will be to increase fundraising per head in the short term, and supporter lifetime value in the longer term. You’ll also help us explore opportunities for repeat fundraising, corporate giving, major donors, and regular giving - working closely with the wider fundraising and events team.
You’ll be the go-to expert on supporter journeys: leading, challenging, testing, and building evidence for what works. From refining the Fundraiser Hub to creating new stewardship ideas or in-person experiences, you’ll shape a journey that turns one-time swimmers into lifelong supporters.
You’ll also collaborate with our Events Marketing team - because our fundraisers aren’t just donors, they’re also our best ambassadors. The better their experience, the stronger our word-of-mouth marketing and the faster our events grow.
You’ll have a lot of freedom to test ideas - as long as you can show the financial model makes sense.
