About CARE 

CARE International is a global humanitarian organisation leading the fight to end poverty in the world’s most challenging situations. Women and girls are at the centre of our work, because we cannot overcome poverty and inequality until all people have equal rights and opportunities. We know that when a crisis erupts, women are often the first to pick up the pieces, so we work alongside women, so they have the power to make change where it’s needed most. Founded in 1945, CARE currently works in over 100 countries and last year alone reached 53.4 million people through nearly 1,500 projects. 

Why work for CARE International UK? 

This is a great opportunity to play a pivotal role in stewarding and shaping some of CARE International UK’s high impact corporate partnerships. You will lead on important multi-year partnerships with global brands such as GSK and Haleon, helping to deliver transformative strategic programmes related to key areas of CARE’s Vision 2030 such as community health systems strengthening and gender equality. The role offers significant scope to shape partnership direction, deepen engagement, and support the teams in-country to deliver meaningful, large-scale impact. This role offers the chance to lead, grow and innovate across these impactful partnerships, working in collaboration to drive CIUK’s impact further for women and communities at scale.

About you 

You are an experienced partnerships manager with a strong track record of leading and growing high-value partnerships. Success in this role requires strong relationship management with a strategic and commercial growth mindset. You bring experience in relationship-building and stewardship, confidence in engaging with senior stakeholders and the ability to represent CARE’s work externally. You thrive in co-creating, delivering and growing impactful partnerships and seeking opportunities to drive social and business impact through win-win partnerships.

You have a good understanding of corporate partnerships, sustainability and ESG frameworks and ideally experience in international development and/or a role delivering on global community health outcomes. You are happy to work in a complex environment with a range of internal and external stakeholders, from country office, project management and communication teams to corporate commercial and sustainability leads. You feel inspired by CARE’s work and what we can achieve in partnership with companies and wider stakeholders. 

About the role 

This role will be responsible for managing a portfolio of high-value partnerships, including flagship collaborations with GSK and Haleon. You will focus on deepening relationships, co-creating partnership strategies, and stewarding jointly developed programmes that meet both CARE’s mission and partner objectives. The role is supported by specialists on finance, operational project management and technical delivery, so the ability to work collaboratively across diverse teams to deliver impact is essential.

Looking for a charity role where children and families are treated with warmth, curiosity, and compassion?

Ready for a role where operational leadership means noticing the details, solving problems early, building strong systems, and helping a busy service run smoothly and thoughtfully?

Looking for a thoughtful values-led organisation where kindness and accountability go hand in hand?

This is what our children and parents could soon be saying about the service you help lead …

‘I feel like some of the darkness has turned to light’.
‘It’s like an egg has been opened up and all the good is coming out…. Life feels like it is on the right track’.

We need you and more importantly, our children and young people need you!

Join our lovely children’s mental health charity team as Service Lead for our specialist part-time alternative provision, supporting children and young people with EHCPs whose needs sit in the intersection of SEND and mental health.

We are looking for someone who can quickly understand and work within the Love Squared ethos and approach, while bringing strong organisational leadership, warmth, and consistency to the service.

This role would suit someone who is perceptive, highly organised, and proactive, with the ability to quickly understand complex situations and keep a busy service running and developing smoothly and thoughtfully.

You will need strong organisational skills, fantastic attention to detail, and love problem solving, and proactively manage multiple moving parts with love and imagination. 

It will suit someone who wants to take real ownership of making things work well! 

A little bit about Love Squared …

Our vision is a society where imagination, love, and kindness are the everyday words that people associate with child and family services. It is a vision where young people can walk into their futures with joy. We want to bring love to children and families’ services. We don’t think it’s enough to care a bit, you have to care a lot if you want to transform outcomes.

We want to change the national landscape of how children experience the mental health system, putting kindness at the forefront of every interaction. Building awareness, starting a movement, hearing the children’s voices and those of their loved ones: we want to transform the experience of those impacted by mental health.

We are on a mission to ensure that no child has to lose out on a world of potential because of mental health. We don’t have magic wands, but we do believe that every child and family has the right to get services designed and delivered for their individual needs, and with love and imagination. Everyone has a right to have their story remembered and treated with curiosity and sensitivity.

We directly deliver imaginative, and carefully case managed services for children and young people with social, emotional, and mental health needs (working in the intersectional needs of mental health and SEND). We do this through our work as a specialist non-school part-time alternative provision for children with education, health and care plans (where this particular advertised role sits!) and through our Glow services where we provide a number of therapeutic projects such as our children’s listening helpline, Drop the Pressure, online mentoring projects such as Transitions, Game On and Remix, 1:1 counselling and mentoring in schools, and therapeutic mentoring workshops in schools as well as holiday groups in nature, and with cooking and a range of other activities. We believe that you can’t change outcomes without looking at issues holistically and thoughtfully. For us it’s about long-term change.

As our new services lead for (outreach ALP), you will help us continue seeking to make three key differences for our children and young people: Improved mental health, Reduced social isolation,  Increased ability to thrive in education

The Role

Our Outreach (part time ALP) service will deliver services to around 45 children and young people at any one time over the next academic year. Our young people are often neurodivergent, have SEND and/ or mental needs such as anxiety, OCD and other diagnosed or undiagnosed needs. Many have very supportive and involved families and parents/ carers who also deserve our empathy and support, and many have had difficult childhood experiences and might be really struggling with loneliness and social isolation. The funding for outreach comes primarily from individual children’s EHCP’s and we design careful and thoughtful packages of education and wellbeing provision with an emphasis on therapeutic and trauma informed work. This is usually commissioned through local authorities (we work with a number across the South West and in London) and can also be commissioned by social care and NHS. The work with the children is delivered by a team of around 25 education and wellbeing practitioners. We usually deliver services in the home and the community and for many of our young people, who are usually not in school - we are key professionals, mentors and cheerleaders in their lives, delivering usually around 12 hours a week of services for each child as a part time ALP. Partnership work and safeguarding are day to day features of the services as is building supportive mentoring relationships with practitioners ensuring they have the right support, training and supervision to fulfil their roles and feel happy and supported, and building warm, nurturing relationships with families and wider stakeholders.

• Deliver services which have meaningful long term impact for the children, but always be proactively seeking to do more and to make them better.

• Have confidence in dealing with conflict and disagreements, ensuring that the children and families voices are heard and working positively with our partners.

• Effective risk-management for service and individual children/ young people in liaison with other stakeholders.

• Manage practitioner and other relevant recruitment so that capacity is carefully managed across the service.

• Support and improve service design, delivery and best practise for the children including running regular team meetings for each placement, individual and group supervision, and providing wellbeing support for practitioners. 

• Ensure that additional and joined up support is sought and achieved as needed to meet the children’s needs and that this is proactive as much as possible rather than reactive. 

• Ensure that reporting, planning, and other documentation both for individual children and at service level is compliant, to a high standard and well organised and managed. 

• Support the ongoing development and sustainable growth of the service in alignment with the Love Squared ethos and approach

Hours of Work: Both Full time and part time hours available (21 – 35 hours per week)
Salary: £23,853 per annum, FTE
Based: Bristol – Office base at County Gates, BS3 2JH

About Us

We are Great Western Air Ambulance Charity, dedicated to providing air ambulance and critical care services across Bristol, North Somerset, Bath & North East Somerset, Gloucestershire, South Gloucestershire and parts of Wiltshire. From volunteers to Specialist Paramedics, from senior Consultants to retail and fundraising staff, we are a team, working to save lives that would otherwise be lost. We seek to continually develop and adapt our activities to meet the needs of local communities, whilst impacting nationally and influencing global pre-hospital care. Our work is deeply satisfying, and every member of the team is committed to this service, and to saving as many lives as we can.

About You and The Role

At Great Western Air Ambulance Charity, we’re looking for a new Supporter Engagement Assistant to support our regional team. This role focuses on providing excellent stewardship for supporters and former patients across the communities we serve. It also calls for real passion – for our cause, for the people we help, and most importantly, for the people who help us save lives.

We’re looking for someone who is dedicated to doing their best, a person who can work independently but can collaborate within and beyond their team, who has compassion for our supporters and stakeholders and who is curious about exploring new approaches and keen to learn and develop. Whilst having experience of working with a charity would be beneficial, it is not essential. The successful candidate will have great customer service and communication skills as well as the ability to manage and develop projects. This role may suit a career changer who can demonstrate transferable skills.

GWAAC is a great cause to fundraise for, we have amazing stories to tell and experiences to offer. Our work is very rewarding for our team too – at GWAAC we know that we are contributing to saving local lives every week. We’re looking for someone who shares our passion for that.

You would be joining GWAAC at an exciting time, as the charity continues to grow and innovate in the field of pre-hospital care. You will be supported in developing your skills and be part of a dedicated team committed to saving local lives.

Closing date: 9am on Friday 10th July 2026

About Us

Bridges Outcomes Partnerships (BOP) is a not-for-profit social enterprise that works alongside Government, community groups and specialist Delivery partners to design and deliver vital services that support people to improve their lives, in areas ranging from housing and employment to education and health & wellbeing.

The role of BOP spans project development (working with Government and others to design and launch the service), project management (coordinating the delivery phase, managing performance, and liaising with the various stakeholders) and project finance (funding the project until it starts to earn outcomes payments). Our own funding comes from a group of pioneering social investors, including The Office for Civil Society, Big Society Capital, Pilotlight, Trust for London, who, like us, are motivated by improving lives and changing the system for the better.

• Manage relationships with external consultants for Trusts & Grants and Legacy fundraising, oversee canvassing agents and ensuring all activity aligns with the hospice’s fundraising strategy and values.

What you’ll bring

• Experience in individual giving, legacy fundraising, donor development or a similar supporter-focused fundraising role.
• A creative approach to campaigns, communications and supporter journeys.
• Confidence using insight, data and performance measures to improve results and grow income.
• Strong relationship-building skills and a positive, proactive approach to supporter engagement.
• Experience of working with agencies, suppliers or external partners to deliver high-quality activity.
• A values-led mindset, with the initiative to take ownership, work collaboratively and make things happen.
