The vacancy

Who are we?

The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award (DofE) is a world leading youth charity which gives young people the chance to develop skills for work and life.

Our structured programmes of volunteering, physical and skills based challenges inspire, guide, and encourage young people to widen their experiences and learn new skills.

Through a licensing process, we partner with youth organisations and support them in their delivery of our programmes to their young people. These organisations range from schools and colleges to local authorities, charities, secure units, and community organisations.

We have recently launched our new strategy for the next five years, Youth Without Limits, which will ensure the DofE is open to all young people aged 14-24 across the UK, and that our participants reflect the most diverse generation of young people ever.

What is the role?

Working within our values and behavioural framework, this role will see you remotely managing, developing, and empowering a team of Operations Officers. By creating a positive working environment in which they can flourish, you will support them to achieve our strategic ambitions and their individual Key Performance Indicators.

Operations Officers are responsible for managing the relationships with our partner organisations (known as Licensed Organisations – LOs), ensuring they offer quality and inclusive DofE programmes to their young people. You will support your team through engaging with stakeholders, managing, and resolving any issues or concerns Operations Officers raise around delivery or quality within their LOs.

Whilst you won’t be working directly with young people, you will have the satisfaction of knowing that you are having a positive impact on their future opportunities.

What are we looking for?

We are looking for a strong team leader who has experience of directly managing a team of staff, either in person or remotely.

You will need to have outstanding communication and interpersonal skills to engage with internal and external stakeholders and be an enthusiastic influencer and authentic ambassador for the DofE.

To undertake the role you’ll need to be exceptionally organised, have the ability to prioritise your workload, meet deadlines and have excellent administrative skills, being both computer literate and competent in MS Office applications.

Our work is increasingly data driven, so you will need to have experience of managing and analysing simple data from which to make informed decisions.

Project management experience will be required to enable you to contribute to regional and national projects, that will drive our strategic objectives forward over the next five years.

We are looking for someone who is decisive and flexible in their approach, has a positive outlook and who will actively manage the wellbeing of their team.

What will you get in return?

About DofE

Since its launch in 1956, the DofE has empowered millions of young people to become the very best they can be. It was established by HRH The Duke of Edinburgh, our Patron, and is still guided by the same set of principles he laid down.

The flexibility and adaptability of DofE have allowed the DofE to spread around the world. We operate through a social franchise model in the UK, licensing and supporting a wide range of organisations to deliver DofE programmes to hundreds of thousands of young people every year.

Despite the disruption caused by the COVID-19 outbreak our ambition to grow the number of young people who can access a DofE programme remains unchanged and we continue to engage new partners and develop innovative ways of working with businesses, the voluntary sector, and policymakers across the UK to ensure that any young person who wants to do their DofE can do so.

Location: On-site (Royal Pavilion)

We are working in partnership with Brighton and Hove’s Royal Pavilion & Museums Trust (RPMT), a charitable organisation that is dedicated to preserving its historic buildings and collections. RPMT are dedicated to creating a stimulating and unforgettable experience for all visitors. The expertise of staff, which covers customer services and outreach to conservation and curating, combined with a strong fundraising track record and the knowledge and experience offered by the Trustees contributes to the success of the Trust.

Following a major grant from National Lottery Heritage Fund (NLHF) for a Garden Project entitled ‘A Garden Fit for a King’, they are now seeking a Fundraiser for an up to 12-month contract to manage the project’s fundraising campaign, securing an additional £750k. The postholder will be responsible for identifying and researching prospects, implementing new fundraising income streams and delivering an activity programme to include members and patrons’ schemes, major gifts, public appeals and fundraising events. This role would suit a freelance fundraiser or someone looking for a part time commitment.

The successful candidate must be able to demonstrate:

• Proven and demonstrable experience in raising funds through targeted campaigns
• Experience of writing fundraising copy, both for encouraging donations and building relationships with supporters
• Good knowledge of Charity Legislation, including understanding of fundraising regulations and Code of Practice, Gift Aid and tax-efficient giving and data protection laws
• Ability to identify and respond to fundraising opportunities and articulate a project, programme, or fundraising appeal in a compelling manner
• Ability to present information verbally and in written format including progress reports, project updates and briefings to a range of audiences in a clear, accurate and confident manner

We are seeking an individual with the ability to build strong and meaningful relationships with supporters with a wide variety of interests and motivations. Excellent administration and organisational skills, with the proven ability to organise and plan your own workload and establish clear priorities to meet deadlines will be essential.
