An exceptional opportunity to help take a remarkable charity to its next stage

The Barrie Wells Trust is a children’s charity dedicated to creating extraordinary experiences and unforgettable memories for seriously ill and disabled children and their families.

The Trust has achieved an outstanding record of impact throughout the UK since its launch in 2008, with its work made possible through the vision and personal commitment of its Executive Chairman, Barrie Wells MBE. Historically, Barrie has managed and personally funded 100% of the Trust’s operational activities.

The Trust’s largest and most successful initiative is Box4Kids. Dedicated to bringing joy and happiness to children living with serious illness and disability, Box4Kids provides access to VIP experiences at major sporting and entertainment venues. Since 2010, the Trust has given over 29,000 guests VIP experiences through its Box4Kids initiative.

We are now seeking an exceptional Director of Operations & Fundraising to play a key role to take the Trust to its next phase. The successful candidate will work closely with Barrie, to build on the Trust’s considerable success whilst creating new opportunities to increase its reach and impact.

This is a senior, hands-on role for an experienced charity professional who combines proven fundraising ability with exceptional relationship-building and operational management skills.

A unique events model

The Trust’s events depend on bringing together three important groups of people:

Companies and high net worth individuals who are willing to donate hospitality boxes and other valuable experiences.

Hospitals, hospices and other charities who identify and nominate seriously ill and disabled children and their families who would benefit from the Trust’s support.

Volunteer hosts who generously give their time to attend events, ensuring that each family receives a warm, personal and memorable experience.

In-house event management team with responsibility for organising the events.

The Director will be responsible for overseeing these relationships and ensuring that the whole process works seamlessly, whilst also building a successful fundraising function.

Key Responsibilities

Fundraising & partnerships

· Create and implement a fundraising strategy capable of establishing sustainable income for the Trust.

· Identify, approach and develop relationships with potential corporate supporters and high net worth individuals.

· Secure financial donations as well as donations of hospitality boxes, experiences and other support.

· Build long-term relationships with donors and supporters and ensure they feel valued and engaged with the Trust’s work.

· Ensure all fundraising activities comply with relevant legislation and the Fundraising Regulator’s Code of Fundraising Practice.

Event management & communications

· Lead the planning and delivery of the Trust’s programme of events, ensuring every event is professionally organised and delivers an exceptional experience for the children and their families.

· Oversee the development of strong relationships with hospitals, hospices and other appropriate organisations to encourage nominations of children and families.

· Oversee the recruitment and coordination of a strong network of reliable and enthusiastic hosts who give their time to attend events.

· Oversee the development of communications that engage different audiences including box and financial donors, beneficiaries, hospitals and hosts.

· Ensure the Trust’s information systems, website and social media are relevant and kept up to date.

Leadership & Operations

· Work closely with Barrie Wells to turn the Trust’s vision and objectives into practical action.

· Line manage key members of the team and develop staff, creating a culture of creativity, accountability and continuous improvement.

· Manage budgets, expenditure and resources effectively.

· Ensure the Trust operates to appropriate standards of governance and best practice.

You will have:

· A successful career within the charity sector, with demonstrable fundraising achievement.

· Experience of creating and significantly growing fundraising income.

· Exceptional relationship-building and influencing skills.

· Excellent organisational and project management skills.

· Strong written and verbal communication skills.

· Sound commercial judgement and an entrepreneurial approach.

· The personality and emotional intelligence to represent the Trust with warmth, enthusiasm and professionalism.

You will be someone who enjoys bringing people together to achieve something special. You will understand that a donated box, a hospital nomination or a volunteer giving up their time is not simply an operational transaction – it is one of the essential ingredients in creating an extraordinary experience for a child and their family.

Why join the Barrie Wells Trust?

You will be joining a highly successful charity with an exceptional story and working directly with its founder and Executive Chairman, Barrie Wells. You will have the opportunity to build the Trust’s fundraising capability virtually from the ground up, while helping to shape its future direction. For the right person, this is a role where your relationships, energy, fundraising ability and leadership can have a very tangible impact.

If you are an experienced charity professional who wants to make a lasting difference and play a major part in the future of the Barrie Wells Trust with the potential to take on significantly greater responsibility, we would love to hear from you.

WHO WE ARE

We are Zarach, the children’s bed charity, and we’re on a mission to end child bed poverty, helping children get a good night's sleep, and the chance to thrive at school.

In our eight  years as a registered charity, we’ve captured the hearts and attention of many individuals, community groups, businesses and funders who want to support us on our mission. We’ve also been given an incredible media platform from which we have raised awareness of child bed poverty at local, regional and national levels. This support and awareness has seen us deliver over 18,000 bed bundles to children to date!

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

Zarach is well established in West Yorkshire and Doncaster. We are now continuing to grow across the Yorkshire region, with a launch in Hull, Bridlington and Goole in October.  We are looking to recruit a Family Engagement Officer to join our dedicated Yorkshire team. This is a unique opportunity to play a key part in the growth and development of our vital service as we expand into the East Riding.

As our ideal candidate you will be happy to travel in and around Hull and the East Riding. You will be able to travel regularly to meet with the team and conduct home visits across the region. You will also need to be able to attend our Leeds Warehouse, or other areas in Yorkshire when required. You will be confident to work autonomously in your area while being supported remotely by a wider regional team. 

You will be someone who has good experience of the broad range of day-to-day case management, working with external partners, volunteer support, and administrative activities that working in a dynamic charity brings, and someone who enjoys the busyness and variety of this. While not essential, as training will be provided, experience working alongside schools will help you hit the ground running as you build relationships and support local families.

Alongside your family support and engagement-related skills and experience, we’ll be looking to see that you have a genuine care for our mission and, as such, are self-motivated to do a great job and be a values-led member of our team.

Ideally, you’ll have experience of working with vulnerable families and managing volunteers in the charity sector, due to some of the specialties that come with this, such as safeguarding and partnership working. But charity experience is not essential if you can demonstrate an appetite and track record for continual learning and development across your working life to date.

WHAT WE OFFER

• Starting at £26,000 with progression up to £30,000 p/a
• Full time hours (35 hours per week) 
• 28 days annual leave (plus bank holidays)
• Healthcare Cash Plan
• Quarterly Staff Recognition Award
• A great working environment! One of our colleagues described us as- “Zarach is a wonderful place to work with the mission at the core of all that we do”

To decide if you’d like to bring your skills and experience to bear in the pursuit of our mission, please have a look at the job description, our website and the coverage of us across social media. 

Please note that we may close this vacancy early if we receive a high volume of applications. Therefore, we encourage you to submit your CV and cover letter as soon as possible.

The Communications and Programmes Officer will work with colleagues to support the delivery of the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation UK Branch's strategy. This post will help deliver the UK Branch's communications activity and support the UK programme's grant-making and projects.

The UK Branch aims to strengthen arts and civil society ecosystems and emphasises transnational collaboration between Portugal (where the Foundation is headquartered) and the UK. Our grantmaking programme has three focus areas: arts opportunities, NGO capacity-building and climate-health. We fund and support partner organisations working in these areas and directly deliver projects in-line with our programme goals. The UK Branch also collaborates on flagship international initiatives of the Foundation, including the Gulbenkian Prize for Humanity and the Alliance for Socially Engaged Arts.

The appointed person is likely to spend around 50% of time working on communications projects, and 50% on general programmatic work (including research, events, project management, and administration).

This is a brilliant opportunity for someone with around two years of relevant experience looking to extend their skills and responsibilities and develop professionally.

We’re over 300,000 Rainbows, Brownies, Guides and Rangers, who come together to laugh, learn, explore and have adventures, in communities across the UK and virtually. We're almost 80,000 volunteers who make guiding happen by giving time, talent and enthusiasm. Girls can do anything.

No two weeks in this role look the same. One day you might be drafting a letter to persuade a government minister to champion prevention; the next, building the funder case for a piece of research that hasn’t been written yet, or turning a dense set of findings into a chart a journalist can’t ignore.

ILC’s Head of Storytelling and Impact will make sure our evidence reaches, and moves, the people who can act on it – policymakers, politicians, business leaders, journalists and the public. This role turns ILC’s research into stories and turns those stories into funding and impact.

Every role at ILC, this one especially, involves relationships with funders and commercial partners. We’re a charity that operates like a commercial organisation – this role has to make the case for our value, not just communicate our findings.

You’ll also, sometimes, be putting our evidence in front of people who would rather not hear it – industries with a vested interest, politicians with other priorities, or audiences who assume ageing isn’t their problem. Part of the job is being comfortable with that, and persuasive anyway.

We want someone who thinks like a publisher and a marketer as much as a press officer – curious about formats, protective of ILC’s funding, and unafraid to pick up the phone to a politician.

We’re here to offer the best advice and information available to help parents, carers and professionals engage in the online lives of children and young people, empowering them to manage the risks they may face online.

We conduct regular research on families’ online experiences and use these insights to influence policymakers, regulators and government, helping to drive positive outcomes for children’s online safety and media literacy.

We exist to:

• Give parents and teachers the advice and support they need to help all children embrace the internet with confidence, and to protect them from online harms.
• Build understanding and raise awareness of families’ online experiences through research, campaigns, events and partnerships, helping children and young people to be happy, healthy and safe online.

About the role

It is an exciting time to be working in children’s online safety. New measures restricting popular social media platforms’ access to children, alongside existing requirements under the Online Safety Act, are reshaping the role of technology companies in keeping children safe online. At the same time, curriculum reform, votes at 16 and the Government’s mission to halve violence against women and girls (VAWG) create real opportunities to shape online safety and media literacy policy, and improve outcomes for children and young people.

Yet the challenges families face online are evolving at pace, from mis- and disinformation to the rapid adoption of AI. There is cross-party consensus on the importance of tackling these issues, and now is the moment to harness this momentum to drive lasting change for children.

Against this backdrop, Internet Matters is recruiting a Policy and Public Affairs Manager to help ensure online safety policy works in practice and improves outcomes for families. This wide-ranging role will include:

• Stakeholder engagement, public affairs and influencing, including maintaining and developing a network of contacts across Government, Parliament, regulators, civil society and industry.

• Supporting the development of Internet Matters’ policy positions, ensuring they are underpinned by the latest research and informed by the sector and political landscape. Key policy areas the role will lead on are media literacy, safeguarding girls online and supporting children with SEND online.
• Monitoring UK parliamentary business and proactively finding opportunities to influence.
• Writing policy outputs for a range of audiences including social copy, blogs, briefings, reports and responses to consultations and calls for evidence.
• Presenting and sharing policy and research in a range of settings, including at external meetings and events, tailoring messages to different audiences. 
• Acting as secretariat for Internet Matters’ Vulnerable User Working Group and Expert Advisory Panel.
• Contributing your ideas to team discussions about the overarching strategy for our policy and research work.

This role sits within the Policy and Research team and a core aspect of the role will be the ability to shape research and insights for policy and sector audiences. You will also support with the analysis of research in relation to policy related tasks.

About you

The successful candidate will have professional experience of working in policy, public affairs or a closely related field. They may have gained this experience from another charity/not-for-profit, a regulator, government, parliament or industry. Although not required, experience of one of the following sector or policy areas would be an advantage: tech, online safety, education, tech-facilitated VAWG or SEND.

We are particularly keen to hear from candidates that have experience writing outputs for a range of audiences and translating primary research into engaging policy insights. You will also have experience building and maintaining relationships with sector, policy and parliamentary stakeholders.

The ideal candidate will have a strong eye for detail and take pride in producing high-quality work.
