About Coram

Coram is committed to improving the lives of the UK’s most vulnerable children and young people.

We support children and young people from birth to independence, creating a change that lasts a lifetime.

Coram is the UK’s oldest children’s charity founded by Thomas Coram in London helping vulnerable children and young people since 1739. Today, the Coram group helps more than one million children, young people, families and professionals every year by providing access to the skills and opportunities they need to thrive.

Coram is a complex organisation and the role one where you will be working across multiple charities at once and balancing daily statutory responsibilities with a broad trust portfolio. So the role would appeal to someone who thrives on managing competing priorities and a varied workload.

About the role

This role sits in the very experienced Trusts and Statutory team, composed of six people. We raise over £2M per annum of trusts income and £4M in statutory tenders. We're part of the wider Fundraising team which raises a further £2M plus from corporates, major donors, individuals and events.

We're looking for someone with persuasive writing and communications skills, good numeracy and systematic attention to detail, who wants to develop their career in this area. While we very much welcome applications from those with experience of trust and statutory fundraising, we are open to excellent applications from those with transferable skills and equivalent experience who want to flourish and learn quickly. This could be from other fundraising disciplines, other charity sector professional roles, business & management, marketing and communications, teaching, research, and so on.

Closing Date: 6 May 2026

Interview Date: 12 May 2026

Coram is an equal opportunities employer and we believe a diverse workforce enables us to improve the services to the children and families we help. We are genuinely committed to encouraging candidates from all sections of the community we seek to support. This includes those from global majority ethnic backgrounds, those that identify as LGBQT+, those with disabilities, those with lived experience of care, those with neuro-diversity, and those from other groups who are underrepresented at Coram.

If applicants feel comfortable, we would encourage them to draw on lived experience as well as professional experience in their personal statement as part of their application.

We are committed to the safeguarding of children and where appropriate will require the successful applicant to undertake a check from the Disclosure and Barring Service.
