Role Description:
We are looking for a highly motivated, experienced Head of Fundraising to lead our small, dynamic Schoolreaders fundraising team and help grow income in line with the charity’s ambitious, exciting plans. This is the ideal opportunity for someone hoping to achieve great results within a rapidly-growing charity which is impacting the lives of thousands of children every week.

About Schoolreaders:
Schoolreaders was launched seven years ago in Bedfordshire with the aim of recruiting volunteers to provide one-to-one reading support for children in primary schools across the country. Before the pandemic over 12,700 children in over 650 schools were receiving weekly reading sessions from a Schoolreaders volunteer. Pre Covid-19, one in four children was leaving primary school unable to read to the expected Government standard. School closures over the past year mean that many children have fallen even further behind with their reading. Our service is needed more than ever before with 10% of primary schools across the country asking Schoolreaders for reading volunteers. Building on past successes, we now have ambitious expansion plans to address the need.
What you can expect:
A highly rewarding, senior fundraising role where you can develop your own skills whilst making your mark on a fast-growing national children’s charity. Schoolreaders is a highly professional charity which values every team-member’s contribution to our team efforts. We offer a generous holiday allowance, enhanced sick pay, an employee assistance programme, plus training and development opportunities. If you want to lead a great team in a fast-moving, welcoming environment whilst making a huge impact on children’s literacy across the country, this could be the perfect role for you!
