We reserve the right to close this advert early if we are able to appoint to the vacancy before the advertised closed date.

The Role

The Programmes Manager (Education) leads DTL’s schools work, owning the relationships, logistics, and outcomes that sit at the heart of our education offer. This is a delivery role with real breadth: you will manage a national programme of training events, lead on school recruitment and retention, and ensure the programme generates the evidence base that sustains its long-term funding.

You will be the main point of contact for subscribing schools, working closely with the CEO and Head of Partnerships. You will represent DTL’s schools work to funders and external partners, and contribute to the strategic development of the programme over time.

While the Digital Ambassador Programme is currently grant funded for three years, DTL’s intention is for the programme to become financially self-sustaining through school subscriptions, and this role is central to achieving that. As the programme grows, so will the scope of this post and the team to support it.

This is an office based role (flexible working considered) from our Brighton office which will involve some travel.

The Digital Ambassador Programme

The Digital Ambassador Programme is DTL’s flagship schools initiative. It trains staff and student Digital Ambassadors in schools across the UK, equipping them to lead on digital safety from within - and to escalate harmful content directly via DTL’s trusted flagger network.

This model creates both a faculty lead to manage complex reports from young people and also a student lead who will be able to provide peer-to-peer support to their fellow students, ensuring that students who may not wish to report directly to the faculty will still have a reporting mechanism. 

Key Responsibilities

Programme delivery

• Manage all delivery phases from set up through to annual review, in line with the agreed delivery plan.

• Coordinate the logistics of 6 regional hub training events per year, including venue sourcing, school invitations, materials production, and on-the-day facilitation.

• Oversee the production of printed resources and ensure all school-facing materials meet DTL brand standards.

• Manage the year-round ambassador network: quarterly online meetings, monthly email digests, and peer-to-peer community activity.

School recruitment and retention

• Lead school recruitment and retention

• Manage all school relationships as point of contact from initial contact through to annual renewal.

Monitoring, evaluation and reporting

• Implement the M&E framework in partnership with DTL’s external consultant

Internal coordination

• Manage the project timeline and risk register, keeping the team informed and escalating risks promptly.

• Coordinate with the Youth Engagement Coordinator, who leads youth-facing content and ambassador engagement.

Person Specification

Essential

• Demonstrable experience in project or programme management, ideally in the charity or education sector.

• Strong project management skills, particularly working to a timeline

• Experience working with schools, local authorities, or youth-facing organisations.

• Confident communicator - written and verbal - able to build and sustain relationships with school staff, funders, and partners.

• Comfortable working in a small, fast-paced charity environment where flexibility and initiative are essential.

Reporting to: The Head of Operations.

Working closely with The Head of Partnerships and the CEO.

Dunfield: Resident Site Caretaker 

Location: Dunfield House, Kington 

Terms: 40 Hours Per Week | £26,437 per annum 

Contract: Full-Time, Permanent 

Reporting to: Operations Director 

Start date: Immediate start preferred 

Application Deadline: 29th May 2026 

Benefit: Onsite Accommodation (The Cottage) forming part of the overall remuneration package 

The Heart of the Role: 

Are you a "handy" person who loves the outdoors and takes pride in keeping things ship-shape?

Dunfield House is looking for a Resident Caretaker to live on-site and become the guardian of our beautiful 15-acre estate. 

As part of our "2026 Strategy," we are moving from simply "maintaining" to "thriving." You will be the person who ensures the lights are on, the pool is sparkling, and the grounds are safe for the hundreds of children and community groups who call Dunfield their "home from home" each year. 

What You’ll Be Doing: 

• Guardian of the Estate: Living on-site in the provided cottage, you’ll be our "eyes and ears," ensuring the site is secure and providing emergency support when groups are staying. 

• Keeping the Gears Turning: Handling day-to-day repairs, from fixing a leaky tap to painting a bedroom or clearing a gutter. 

• The Great Outdoors: Mowing the lawns, managing the woodland paths, and keeping the 15 acres looking like the sanctuary our guests expect. 

• Pool & Plant: Taking charge of our private indoor pool (full training provided) to ensure it is always clean and safe for our guests. 

• Duty Management: Joining our rotating "Manager on Duty" team, greeting guests and ensuring they have everything they need for a perfect stay. 

• Emergency On-Call: When resident on-site and not on a scheduled shift, act as the designated emergency point of contact for guests. 

• Boundary Management: Work with the Operations Director to implement and display clear "Emergency Guidelines" for guests, ensuring "on-call" status is reserved strictly for life-safety or significant building-integrity issues (e.g., fire, flood, total power failure). 

• Response Protocol: Provide immediate assessment of the emergency and, where necessary, coordinate with external emergency services or the Operations Director. 

Who We Are Looking For: 

• A Practical Problem-Solver: You’re someone who sees a loose hinge or a flickering light and fixes it before anyone even notices. 

• A Welcoming Presence: You understand the "Dunfield Edge"—that we are a place of hospitality and kindness. You’ll be a friendly face to our guests. 

• A Self-Starter: Much of your work will be independent. We need someone who can manage their own "to-do" list and prioritize what needs doing. 

• Community Minded: You understand that Dunfield is a charity with a mission, and you take pride in playing your part to keep it open. 

Why Dunfield? 

• New Project: You will be joining us at the beginning of an exciting new chapter in Dunfield Houses' long history, moving the Grade II listed building from a volunteer led operation to a professionally managed team of stewards. 

• Living at Dunfield: This role comes with the benefit of living in The Cottage on-site. It’s a unique opportunity to live in a stunning rural setting. 

This isn't just a job! 

It’s a lifestyle choice for someone who loves the peace and responsibility of estate living. 

Challenge Events Assistant

Location: Edinburgh or Stepps (Hybrid)

Salary: £26,807 - £28,324 per annum, pro rata

Contract Type: Temporary for 12 months, Full time 35 hours per week

Closing Date: 03/06/2026 23:59

The Vacancy

This is a really exciting time to join Children’s Hospices Across Scotland – better known as CHAS. A fantastic opportunity has arisen for a Challenge Events Assistant to join the fundraising team to play a key role in CHAS’ More Than a Hospice Appeal - an ambitious, once‑in‑a‑generation campaign to change the future of care for children who will die young.

Challenge events are some of the most exciting and fast-paced fundraising activities at CHAS – from running events and virtual challenges to adrenaline-fuelled experiences. This role is hands-on and varied. One day you might be supporting participants preparing for their first marathon, and the next you could be at an event pit stop, setting up, welcoming supporters, and keeping energy high throughout the day with a team of volunteers.

During event season, you’ll often be out and about, attending events, working occasional weekends, and being part of the buzz that comes with live events. At the same time, there’s a strong administrative and planning side – coordinating logistics, managing data, responding to supporter queries, and helping ensure every event runs smoothly behind the scenes. It’s a role for someone who enjoys being busy, can adapt quickly, and is just as comfortable with spreadsheets and emails as they are cheering participants across a finish line.

Key Responsibilities

Working within the culture, ethos and philosophy of CHAS, you will assist the Mass Participation Events Manager with the management and evaluation of challenge events and the recruitment and stewardship of supporters. Key responsibilities include:

• Assisting with the management of in-person challenge events, including liaising with third party event organisers, suppliers and attendance on the day
• Assisting with the development of the virtual events programme, stewarding participants through social media and answering queries
• Producing copy to promote events for website, social media, press and email
• Assisting with the recruitment of supporters for events in the challenge event calendar, and stewarding them to raise as much as possible for CHAS
• Assisting with event research
• Administration

About You

In order to help CHAS achieve our goal of reaching every family in Scotland that needs us, you will have:

• Experience of fundraising / events or HNC level qualification (or equivalent) in either Public Relations, Marketing, Media, Communications, Event Management, Fundraising or related discipline
• Demonstrable working knowledge of Microsoft Office or similar packages
• Demonstrable experience of keyboard skills and maintaining information databases
• Good communication skills to deal with staff, volunteers and general public in an appropriate and effective manner
• Competent on social media
• High level of accuracy and numeracy skills, as this role requires cash handling
• Demonstrable attention to detail
• Planning and organising skills for effective management of event calendar
• Experience in an office and customer services environment
• Driving licence and access to a vehicle

Why CHAS?

At CHAS, we support families during the toughest of times. We have ambitions to reach every family in Scotland who is living with the heart-breaking prognosis that their child is dying and offer them our care and support to empower them to make the most of the short time they have together. The skill, determination and creative flair of our Fundraising Teams makes this possible. 

This is a pivotal moment to join CHAS. We’ve just launched More Than A Hospice - a £20 million appeal to change how Scotland cares for children who will die young, and for the families who love them. Every week, three children in Scotland die from an incurable illness, and advances in medicine mean more children are living longer with complex, life‑shortening conditions - a gift, but one that demands change.

Right now, too many families don’t have real choice throughout their child’s life, or at the end of it - and are sometimes forced into decisions because the care they need isn’t always there when it’s needed. We believe Scotland can - and must - do better. Joining CHAS now means being part of an ambitious appeal that aims to ensure care follows the child - at home, in hospital, or in a hospice so no family faces that moment alone

We offer

• Flexible Working: our teams work flexibly and in a hybrid manner with time split between at home and onsite in Edinburgh and Glasgow.
• Development Opportunities: exposure to a variety of fundraising activities
• Professional Growth: Work with industry leaders in a high-performing team where you will be encouraged and supported to excel and develop your skills.
• Comprehensive Benefits: Including generous annual leave and pension, incremental salary progression, access to Blue Light discounts, and health and wellbeing support.
