About the Education and Employers charity

Education and Employers is an independent UK based charity launched in 2009 with the vision of “providing children and young people with the inspiration, motivation, knowledge, skills and opportunities they need to help them achieve their potential”. It aims to achieve this by working with schools, employers, the national bodies that represent them and a wide range of other partners including the government and third sector organisations. The charity also works with partners internationally – more details here.

The charity runs Inspiring the Future, a free service which uses innovative match-making technology to connect volunteers with state schools and colleges, quickly, simply and at scale. Schools can very easily search a massive database of willing volunteers, filter against a wide range of criteria – e.g. subject, sector, career route and send them a message. It enables young people, wherever they live, whichever school they attend, the opportunity to meet people from a wide range of backgrounds doing jobs from across the whole world of work.

Over 55,000 people have already volunteered in the UK - people from all levels: apprentices to CEOs and all sectors: apps designers to zoologists and over 80% of English secondary schools have registered. People can volunteer from an hour a year in a local primary or secondary school to chat informally about their job and career route, take part in career speed networking session, give careers insights, provide mock interviews or feedback on CVs through to serving as a governor or trustee.  There is also the opportunity to link up with schools for workplace visits, job shadowing and mentoring.

Inspiring the Future operates on a technology platform kindly developed in partnership with Deloitte, Salesforce and Ordnance Survey. It allows the charity to run national campaigns such as Inspiring Women and others focused on specific geographic areas or economic sectors such as engineering, science, health and arts and culture. The campaigns have secured high profile support across government, business and teacher associations and ongoing corporate partnerships including our lead corporate partner Bank of America Merrill Lynch.

In partnership with the National Association of Head Teachers the charity has developed a version for primary schools called Primary Futures and over 4,500 primaries have already signed up. To see a short clip on how it works please click here.  All campaigns run through Inspiring the Future share a common objective: to broaden young people’s horizons, raise their aspirations and show them the range of opportunities and careers routes e.g. apprenticeships and university open to them. Over 1.8 million interactions between young people and volunteers from the world of work have already taken place.

In partnership with the National Governance Association the charity runs Inspiring Governance the free governor recruitment and support service. This Department for Education funded service aims to get highly skilled volunteers to serve as governors in some of the most disadvantaged schools in England and in so doing help raise educational achievement.

Since the Charity’s launch it has sought to understand what difference employer engagement in education makes to young people and the economy. It works with academics and researchers from around the world and its own research is regularly cited by government and international organisations like the OECD. The research, which has informed and influenced a range of government policies, shows that employer engagement helps improve social mobility, reduces the likelihood of young people becoming NEET (not in education, employment of training), increases the amount they earn in adult life, helps them make better informed career choices and leads to improvements in educational attainment.

Unicef ensures more of the world’s children are vaccinated, educated and protected than any other organisation. We have done more to influence laws and policies to help protect children than anyone else. We get things done. And we’re not going to stop until the world is a safe place for all our children.

We are currently seeking a Deputy Executive Director, Philanthropic Relationships to help us achieve our ambitious goals and move us closer to making every child safe, and able to reach their full potential. As a member of the senior executive team and reporting directly to the Executive Director, the new Deputy Executive Director will be integral in raising our sights and helping us achieve our ambition. Unicef UK currently secures around £10 million annually in major and principal giving, however, we believe that we can increase this income significantly with the right leadership and aspiration setting for our philanthropic partnerships team. We want to invest in the strategy, approach, capability and people that will help us realise that goal.

We wish to encourage applications from experienced senior leaders drawn from a wide variety of backgrounds. The successful candidate will be a proven fundraising leader, with demonstrable experience of cultivating and delivering on philanthropic relationships at the highest level. You will have knowledge of working alongside high net worth individuals and philanthropic trusts and securing support at the seven-figure level. You must have the energy and aptitude to further enhance Unicef UK’s reputation with wide range of philanthropic supporters and their representatives and help expand this portfolio substantially. Excellent communication skills are essential, alongside a clear passion and commitment to Unicef’s mission.

Charity People are thrilled to be working with a fantastic children's charity based in London, who are looking for a new Senior Philanthropy Manager to work within the Partnerships and Philanthropy Team.

This amazing charity focuses on improving children's lives all over the world. This is a great opportunity to develop and maintain long-term and successful relationships with prospective donor supporters whilst working closely with volunteers, stakeholders and senior management within the organisation. You will be an important contributor to the whole team's targets as well as influential across the whole team and predominately focus on 6 figure gifts.

The ideal person will have proven experience within fundraising or account management, with the ability to communicate effectively at all levels, including verbal and written communication.

• Knowledge of planning, monitoring and evaluating success in fundraising
• You will be a team player, with a flexible approach and the ability to collaborate well with others
