Skills and employment manager jobs

About Us 

​Established in 2002, Greenhouse Sports is a youth charity specifically using sport to support social change. Sport is our hook to engage young people and one of the vehicles through which we support youth development. But our purpose is not to create elite athletes or address physical inactivity. Rather, we create opportunities for young people to recognise their strengths and develop the skills they need to thrive both now and in the future.

​We work across London, Portsmouth, and Leicester, specifically in areas of high deprivation. We embed evidence-based positive youth development programmes into primary and secondary schools. These programmes are delivered by our trusted, high-quality coach-mentors who deliver year-round to ensure that young people have ongoing access to sport, mentoring, enrichment, and employability activities. The result of this work is that every year, Greenhouse Sports support over 9,000 young people to attend school more often, improve their wellbeing, and raise their aspirations, transforming life chances in the communities that need us the most. 

The Opportunity ​

​Building on an incredibly successful match-giving campaign last November, we are looking to grow our fundraising programme, and are searching for a passionate and relationship‑driven Supporter Engagement and Events Officer to help us deepen supporter connections and deliver exceptional experiences. ​

​​This is a fantastic role for someone who loves building relationships, delivering high‑quality events, and inspiring people to fundraise or donate to a mission that changes young people’s lives.

The Role​

You will play a key part in engaging our community of supporters, from marathon runners to monthly donors to guests at our bespoke events. You’ll lead on mass‑participation challenge events, support the development of our membership/regular giving programme, and help plan and deliver creative, impactful experiences that bring supporters closer to our mission. Working across the fundraising team, you'll help ensure every supporter feels valued, inspired, and connected to the young people we serve. 

​​​All Greenhouse Sports employees are provided with comprehensive Continuous Professional Development support and are expected to commit fully to Greenhouse's Safeguarding & Child Protection policy.​​​

Application Deadline: Friday 13 March at 23:59hrs ​

Please submit your CV and Cover Letter explaining why you'd be a great fit for this role and what motivates you about our mission.​​

The Diocese of Leicester, together with the partner dioceses, is committed to safeguarding and to the care and nurture of all within our church communities. We follow Church of England safeguarding policies and statutory guidance.

We particularly welcome applications from UK Minority Ethnic / Global Majority Heritage candidates, especially those of Black descent, who are currently underrepresented in our organisation.

This post is subject to a Basic DBS check and requires proof of the right to work in the UK. Please note that we are unable to offer a Certificate of Sponsorship.

At The Maypole Project, every small action contributes to a family’s strength, stability and hope. As our Operations Officer, you’ll be the person who quietly but powerfully keeps that support flowing – ensuring our team can be there for children with complex medical needs and their families when they need us most.

This role sits at the heart of our organisation. You’ll be the steady hand behind the scenes, making sure our office runs smoothly, our staff feel supported, our policies stay sharp, and our environment is safe and welcoming for everyone who walks through the door. You’ll provide support to the CEO and team leads, helping them deliver the very best support to families.

You’ll manage the rhythm of day‑to‑day operations: from coordinating office needs and liaising with IT and telecoms providers, to ensuring the right resources are where they’re needed. Your eye for organisation will help keep our budgets on track, our shared inboxes responsive, and our essential administration running with calm efficiency.

A key part of your work will be within HR support—helping coordinate recruitment, onboarding new colleagues, maintaining records, and making sure staff feel welcomed and prepared from day one. You’ll also play a vital role in keeping our policies current and meaningful, working closely with the CEO to maintain our review cycle and ensure that information is clear and accessible across the organisation.

Health, safety, environment and fire safety (SHEF) responsibilities form another important strand. You’ll take the lead in maintaining compliance across the organisation, ensuring risk assessments are up to date, first aid provision is well‑stocked, and our premises and equipment remain safe, functional and fit for purpose.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys variety, thrives on organisation, and cares about being part of a charity that puts families front and centre. You’ll collaborate across teams, support events and activities, champion equity and inclusion, and contribute to a culture that values compassion, professionalism and shared purpose.

At The Maypole Project, every role matters—but few touch as many parts of the organisation as this one. If you want to make a meaningful impact every day, not just through what you do but through how you enable others to do their best work, this is a place where you can truly make a difference.

Additionally, you will:

- Reconcile funder accounts and resolve unallocated or misposted payments
- Process international payments and manage foreign exchange considerations
- Administer the credit card portal in line with organisational policies
- Prepare debtor and cash flow reports for review
