• Flexible working hours
• Based in London

The Cares Family helps people find community and connection in a disconnected age. First established in 2011, our objectives are to reduce loneliness and isolation by creating and supporting meaningful mutual relationships between people who might not otherwise interact; to help people feel belonging, purpose and power in a rapidly changing world; and to bring people together to reduce the gaps across social, generational, digital, cultural and attitudinal divides.

In your role as The Cares Family’s Partnerships Associate, you will work closely with our Director of Development, Head of Development and Head of Community Fundraising to generate at least £200,000 from businesses and national corporate partners across the five branches of The Cares Family (North London Cares, South London Cares, Manchester Cares, Liverpool Cares, East London Cares) as well as for our new national projects.

This is an exciting time to join our ambitious fundraising team.

You will have excellent organisational and people management skills to engage new businesses and deliver volunteer engagement opportunities. You will be ambitious, innovative and confident in scoping and pitching. We need someone who is passionate about people and who can clearly promote our vision for building friendships across deepening divides. If that sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you.

Think Equal’s vision is a safe, free and equal world, and our mission is to achieve a global system change in education by introducing Social and Emotional Learning as a compulsory new Early Years subject on national curricula around the world. We ask: “How can it be deemed compulsory for a child to learn mathematics in an age in which we have calculators, and yet it is optional for a child to learn how to value another human being and lead healthy relationships?” 

Think Equal has created a free programme in three levels: level one for 3-4 year olds, level two for 4-5 year olds, and level three for 5-6 year olds. The programme is a concrete 30-week toolkit with three lesson plans per week, each 45 minutes long. For each level, the teachers receive a kit that includes 22 books, 90 lesson plans, and a booklet of resources. Teachers receive training on the programme in addition to the step by step lesson plans, which were created to be very clear and easy to implement. The curriculum mediates, at age appropriate levels, competencies such as empathy, emotional literacy, resilience, self-regulation, critical thinking, gender equality, peaceful conflict resolution, and self-esteem. 

Effectively, the programme builds, through the conduit of teachers, the pro-social neuropathways in the child’s developing brains. The resultant competencies, values and skills of inclusion, gender equality, empathy, kindness, compassion, emotional intelligence (and 20 other such critical outcomes) evidentially last through adulthood, as long as they are taught holistically, continuously, comprehensively and repetitively as in the Think Equal model.

The post holder will manage the development, implementation, monitoring and reporting of the Think Equal programmes around the world. You will be working with the CEO to implement and manage the programme in the different programme countires around the world.

To apply please send your CV and cover letter (no more than 2 A4 pages) by 2 November 2020. Please read the attached Job Description for the role. Please include your availabilty for interview and start date along with your expecation for salary.

Please note that we do not sponsor visa, you must have right to work in the UK for this post.
