A note on AI

While we understand that some people may use AI tools for accessibility (and recognise and support that many assistive technologies may use elements of AI), we ask candidates to consider what tools are most appropriate during the application process. For example, we recognise the value for many people of machine learning language tools like Grammarly. On the other hand we would discourage the use of generative AI tools in writing your application, as we'd like to understand your personal interest in working for Julie's Bicycle, and be able to understand your non-AI-assisted communication skills just as they are. We also recognise that for many of the people and creative communities we work with, the rise of generative AI poses a threat to their livelihoods, while the environmental impacts of AI are only set to grow: this means we also have a responsibility as Julie's Bicycle to consider where and when (and if) we use AI in our work. 

Thank you for your interest in working at Julie’s Bicycle.

We provide this through a variety of creative and innovative approaches:

 

The Team

We are a diverse and welcoming team of advisers, who use a wide variety of creative methods to deliver personalised, client centred, personal careers guidance, ranging from one-to-one sessions through to group guidance, parents and options evenings, as well as focused talks and assemblies. We have minimal admin and keep our clients’ experience central to what we do, providing an inclusive service with individualised action plans, including the use of visual career maps, career cards and white boards, alongside more traditional approaches where appropriate.

We follow the CDI code of ethics and best practice for Action Planning (which names and recognises CXKs innovative work in this area):

The King’s Trust International (KTI) (formerly Prince’s Trust International) has been supporting young people worldwide since 2015. Founded by HM The King, our Royal Founding President, to tackle the global crisis of youth unemployment, our vision is that every young person should have the chance to succeed, and our mission is to empower young people to learn, earn and thrive.

Our programmes and interventions are now present in 20 countries within the Commonwealth and beyond, across Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, Europe and the Middle East. 

We are committed to amplifying the voices of young people on the global stage and putting their needs at the very heart of the design and delivery of our work. This complements global efforts to deliver the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly those relating to quality education and decent work.

The King’s Trust International is committed to representing, at all levels, the global communities and young people that we serve.

This role will play a key part in the success of fundraising at The King’s Trust International, both through managing a small portfolio of both philanthropy and corporate donors and more broadly through supporting the fundraising of the wider team. This exciting and varied role will provide key stewardship, reporting and event support as needed to cultivate and progress our funding pipeline. The postholder will work collaboratively across both philanthropy and corporate teams, supporting existing activity as well as helping to establish new areas such as networks and corporate engagement products.

The King’s Trust International celebrates its 10th anniversary in 2025 and has run an exciting campaign to raise funds to kick start our new strategy to reach 1 million young people in our next decade. This role will be central to the activity as we start this next chapter, including stewarding and cultivating our new pipeline of campaign donors, providing event support, creating engaging communications, and prospecting across the team and senior leadership.

This is a great opportunity to fine tune the core fundraising skills required within the not-for-profit world and a fulfilling catalytic role within an innovative and impactful organisation. There is the possibility to specialise the remit of the role in future years in line with the needs of the charity.

About you

You will be a resilient, enthusiastic, self-starter with a strong understanding of the challenges facing young people, and the ability to deliver results under challenging and varied circumstances. Experience of fundraising and income generation with a sound understanding of the principles of meaningful engagement will enable you to successfully cultivate and steward a personal portfolio of prospects, funders or other clients with a demonstrable track record of your ability to influence and secure sustainable results. You will be a strong, persuasive and confident communicator, both orally and written and possess strong planning and organisational skills and the ability to work effectively and collaboratively with diverse groups of people and with key senior stakeholders. Experience of MS Office and using remote and digital work tools (e.g. spreadsheets, project planning tools) accurately and with good attention to detail is essential.
