We are looking for a Programme Coordinator to help deliver a UK-wide, government-funded programme supporting around 700 university students to build the skills, experience and industry connections needed for careers in the electronics and semiconductor sector.

You’ll be joining a small, high-performing charity working at national scale. This is a hands-on role at the centre of delivery, where you will coordinate students, partners and activities across a complex, fast-moving programme.

This is a hands-on coordination role with real ownership across programme delivery.

You will take ownership of key areas of delivery, solve problems day-to-day, and help ensure the programme runs smoothly at scale. If you are organised, proactive, and want to build towards a Programme Management role while delivering meaningful work, this role will give you that opportunity.

Why this role matters

This programme plays a critical role in addressing the UK’s electronics skills shortage by supporting students from university into industry.

It combines in-person events, industry engagement and digital learning, delivered across multiple universities and partners nationwide.

At this scale, coordination is everything. Done well, it:

• Ensures a high-quality experience for every student
• Enables partners to engage effectively
• Allows a small team to deliver at national scale

This role exists to make that happen.

• Acting as a key coordination point between students, universities, industry partners and internal teams
• Supporting the planning and delivery of programme activities, including induction events, residentials, webinars, site visits and industry events
• Coordinating logistics such as registrations, attendance tracking, communications and on-the-day delivery support
• Supporting the recruitment and onboarding of ~400 new students, including application coordination and candidate communications
• Managing day-to-day operations such as programme inboxes, records, tracking and follow-ups
• Working across multiple internal stakeholders to keep delivery aligned, on track and moving forward
• Identifying and resolving routine delivery issues, escalating where needed

You will be trusted to manage your own workload, prioritise effectively, and take ownership of delivering work to a high standard.

What you’ll gain

• Real ownership in delivering a national programme at scale
• A clear pathway to Programme Manager, with hands-on experience across delivery
• Exposure to universities, industry partners and a government-funded initiative

What we’re looking for

We are particularly interested in people who can demonstrate:

• Experience coordinating projects, programmes or events involving multiple stakeholders
• Strong organisational skills and ability to manage multiple priorities
• Confidence communicating with a range of audiences
• A proactive approach to problem-solving
• The ability to take ownership and follow through

You might have developed this experience in programme coordination, events, operations, education, or similar roles.

You do not need to meet every requirement. If this role excites you, we encourage you to apply.

Please note that UK-wide travel will be a requirement of this role.

We proudly stand behind CAPSEAH (Common Approach to Protection from Sexual Exploitation, Sexual Abuse and Sexual Harassment) and put this commitment into action through clear policies, thorough training, and recruitment checks tailored to each role, which may include external vetting.

If you ever have a concern, however big or small, know that there are confidential channels ready to support you at WWF-UK. We promise to respond promptly and with care, because protecting every individual is at the heart of everything we do.

Amnesty International UK (AIUK) has a simple aim: an end to human rights abuses. Independent, international and influential, we campaign for justice, fairness, freedom and truth wherever they are denied. If you want to use your skills, knowledge, and experience to help fight for human rights, you could be our new Corporate Partnerships Manager.

About the role

The Major Funding Partnerships Directorate is responsible for generating a significant part of AIUK's income, with an ambitious strategy to grow fundraising substantially between 2025 and 2030. The Corporate Partnerships Manager sits at the heart of that ambition - owning a portfolio of high-profile corporate partnerships and prospects, and bringing an entrepreneurial, impact-investing mindset to a competitive market.

This is not a conventional corporate fundraising role. You will develop creative propositions and identify new routes to value - inspiring companies to engage with Amnesty in ways that go beyond traditional charitable giving. Day to day, you'll cultivate senior relationships, shape bespoke value propositions, build and maintain a prospect pipeline worth at least three times your annual income target, and brief the Chief Executive and Senior Management Team ahead of C-suite engagements. You'll also lead on complex partnership negotiations and design high-impact events that deepen corporate engagement.

The human rights impact is real and direct: the income you secure funds Amnesty's campaigning and global advocacy - protecting people from unjust imprisonment and abuse of power around the world. The companies you bring on board don't just support a charity; they become active partners in that mission.

This role typically requires 1 day per week in our London office. More details can be found by downloading the job description from our careers portal.

The role may be for you if:

• You have experience in major partnership fundraising, with a track record of securing significant five to six figure gifts and growing high-value relationships.
• You can cultivate and engage senior corporate leaders, and are comfortable briefing the CEO and Senior Management Team to support high-stakes partnerships with C-suite contacts.
• You can develop insight-driven, commercially compelling cases for support - ideally within a campaigning or advocacy-focused organisation - that inspire companies to invest beyond traditional charitable giving.
• You bring an entrepreneurial approach to prospect research and pipeline development - spotting opportunities beyond the obvious, and building a forward-looking portfolio worth at least three times the annual income target.
• You collaborate positively and contribute to an inclusive culture, and have a good knowledge of corporate social responsibility programmes and/or social impact investing.

Our Commitment to you

Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Anti-Racism (IDEA) are at the core of our values. We want to be an organisation that tackles structural inequality and prejudice as well as be an actively anti-racist organisation. This means taking a meaningful and equitable approach to supporting and developing you and others during your time with us.

New colleagues receive 27 days leave annually (29 after five years), as well as bank holidays (pro rated for part time) and 3 wellbeing days. 2-5% employee pension contributions are matched at 6-9% and we offer 6 months full pay for family leave. We offer flexible working such as compressed work patterns and job shares.
