Education development manager jobs

Join Derbyshire Children’s Holiday Centre in Skegness as a Summer Activity Leader and spend seven weeks creating life-changing experiences for children who really need a break.

For 135 years, Derbyshire Children’s Holiday Centre has provided seaside holidays for children from Derbyshire who are living in poverty, experiencing trauma, or facing multiple disadvantages. A week away from everyday pressures can help a child relax, grow in confidence, and believe in themselves again.

As part of our summer team, you’ll help deliver fun, structured activities that give children the chance to enjoy childhood — often for the first time in a long while.

You might be leading beach games, running sports activities, supporting creative workshops, helping children take part in confidence-building wellbeing sessions, or joining them on trips out around the seaside.

But more importantly, you’ll be part of a supportive team helping every child feel safe, included and valued.

Many of the children who visit us arrive feeling nervous or unsure. By the end of the week they often leave smiling, more confident, and with new friendships that stay with them long after the holiday ends.

This is more than just a summer job — it’s a chance to be part of something genuinely meaningful.

The British Small Animal Veterinary Association (BSAVA) represents over 10,000 members across the UK and beyond, championing excellence in small‑animal veterinary practice through education, science, and community. As the leading membership association for vets working with companion animals, we provide world‑class professional development, publish respected clinical resources, and convene the profession through influential scientific events and networks.

The Association is now at a pivotal moment. We are undergoing a Programme of Change to redefine how BSAVA operates—modernising our systems, transforming member experience, and strengthening our role as a trusted, forward‑looking voice for the profession.

As we approach our 70th anniversary in 2027, we are building an organisation that is more adaptive, more connected, and more responsive to the changing needs of veterinary professionals.

You will own the Programme of Change and lead its successful delivery, strengthening our organisational culture, systems and practices, while ensuring BSAVA continues to thrive as a values‑driven, evidence‑led and member‑centred Association.

The CEO will broaden our reach and impact, champion member value, and strengthen relationships across academia, industry, the wider veterinary profession, and international networks. You will position BSAVA as a modern, relevant, and agile organisation—one that supports veterinary professionals to deliver outstanding care and sustain fulfilling careers.
