About M7 Education

At M7 Education, our mission is simple — to level the educational playing field by making experiential learning accessible to every student. We believe one school trip can change a student’s entire outlook on education, yet too many miss out due to financial barriers.

We provide fully funded school trips and workshops for high pupil premium schools across England and Wales, taking care of both the funding and the logistics so that teachers can focus on inspiring their students.

We’re a small, dedicated team with big ambitions. We work flexibly, think creatively, and collaborate closely to make learning come alive for as many children as possible.

The Role

We’re looking for an enthusiastic and driven Fundraising and Events Lead to join our growing team. This is a new and exciting opportunity to shape the future of M7 Education’s fundraising strategy and be the driving force behind our next phase of growth.

You’ll take the lead in developing new income streams, building strong relationships with donors and fundraisers, and creating inspiring fundraising events and campaigns. Working closely with the CEO, you’ll have the freedom to innovate, test new ideas, and lay the groundwork for a future fundraising function within the charity.

This is a hands-on role that’s perfect for someone with experience in charity fundraising and event management who’s eager to make a tangible difference in education.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and deliver a comprehensive fundraising strategy to increase income across multiple channels.
• Manage relationships with individual fundraisers, supporting their journeys and ensuring excellent stewardship.
• Plan, coordinate, and deliver fundraising events — both third-party events (such as the SuperHalfs series) and M7-run initiatives.
• Research, write, and submit compelling grant applications to trusts and foundations.
• Lead creative fundraising campaigns that engage new supporters and promote M7 Education’s mission.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with key stakeholders, sponsors, and community partners.
• Monitor fundraising performance, prepare reports, and evaluate impact to inform future growth.
• Contribute to the development of a future fundraising team, including volunteers and, in time, staff members.

Person Specification

Essential:

• Minimum of 3 years’ experience in charity fundraising, with a track record of generating income.
• Proven experience in event planning and delivery.
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
• Strong organisational and project management abilities.
• Confident working independently and taking initiative in a small, fast-moving team.
• Ability to think creatively and strategically about income growth.

Desirable:

• Experience in the education or children’s charity sector.
• Skills in communications, social media, or email campaigns.
• Understanding of sporting events and community fundraising (e.g. marathons, challenges).
• Experience writing successful grant or trust funding applications.

What We Offer

• £28,000–£31,000 (pro rata) depending on experience
• Part-time (4–5 days per week)
• 30 days annual leave (pro rata) + additional time off during certain school holidays
• Paid professional development opportunities
• Highly flexible working environment (remote-first)
• Time off in lieu for event days
• Opportunity to shape and grow M7 Education’s fundraising function from the ground up

Our Culture

We’re a small team with high goals — adaptable, collaborative, and full of ideas. We value initiative and creativity, giving team members the freedom to experiment and test new approaches. If you’re someone who enjoys autonomy, thrives in a dynamic environment, and wants to see your work make a direct impact on children’s lives, you’ll fit right in.

The Drive Partnership, formed by Respect, SafeLives and Social Finance, is working to transform the national response to perpetrators of domestic abuse. We work to end domestic abuse and protect victims by disrupting, challenging, and changing the behaviour of those who are causing harm. Together we have developed the Drive Project to address a gap in work with high-harm, high-risk perpetrators of domestic abuse. We also work to advocate for systems and policy change- to develop sustainable, national systems that respond more effectively to all perpetrators of domestic abuse. 

In July of this year the Home Office announced a £53m investment over the next four years to enable the Drive Project to roll out across England and Wales. To end domestic abuse, we must address the source of the problem - the perpetrator.  This funding will make a huge difference to our efforts to support survivors, by holding perpetrators to account, stopping them from causing further harm and giving them the chance to change. 

Reporting to the Drive Director we are looking for a Drive Deputy Director to contribute to the leadership and management of the team in addition to building and nurturing strategic relationships with key stakeholders such as individuals, corporate partners, public sector organisations, and charitable trusts.  Your remit will also include working collaboratively with the Head of Programmes and Managers, to develop a growth and business development strategy for each of our four core areas of work.

About us

Foxglove is a non-profit that exists to make the use of technology fair for all. When Big Tech companies abuse their power, their workers or the planet – and when governments use technology to oppress, exclude or discriminate – we litigate and campaign to fix it.  

Big Tech companies have become so large – gobbling up a huge slice of the global marketplace and an unprecedented treasure hoard of user data – that they’re now more powerful than many states. The harmful effects of this concentration of power are everywhere – threats to our democracy, to our privacy, decimated workers’ rights and platforms rife with disinformation and hate. Big Tech and AI data centres are rapidly expanding, resulting in huge strain on energy and water supplies. Worldwide governments are ploughing ahead with the use of algorithms and mass data systems to cut costs and increase efficiency often resulting in digital tools that entrench unfairness and leave the most vulnerable in society in crisis. All these problems are only getting worse with generative AI. 

Foxglove works to bring the rule of law to the tech and AI giants who have upended our public square, workplaces, and social lives. We have a strong track record. We’ve launched landmark cases seeking structural changes to big tech’s harmful business models, supported 180+ Facebook content moderators fired for trying to form a union to sue Facebook and their outsourcing company, Sama – winning world-first judgements. We're urging competition regulators worldwide to stop Google’s theft of independent news. We’ve filed the UK’s first legal challenge to a data centre permission decision over the government’s failure to properly assess their environmental impact. We’ve forced disclosure of secret contracts between tech giants and the NHS, stopped a racist Home Office visa streaming algorithm, helped make grading fair for UK A level students, forced the government to pause the NHS Data Grab and challenged the Department of Work and Pension’s use of an algorithm unfairly flagging disabled people for benefit fraud investigations.

We are a small but growing team of lawyers, communications experts, and campaigners. Our work is global, and we work in partnership with lawyers, civil society, unions, and people impacted by Big Tech.

What if your ability to transform complex financial data into clear, compelling reports could be the single source of truth that enables better, faster decisions across one of the UK's largest charities? As a Financial Accountant at Alzheimer's Society, you'll play a vital role in ensuring financial integrity and compliance as we work to end the devastation caused by dementia.

About the opportunity
As Financial Accountant within our Finance & Assurance directorate, you'll be part of a team that's transforming how we deliver financial partnership across the organisation. We're on an ambitious journey to become the Society's single point of financial truth. We aim to be trusted partners and credible experts who enable the organisation to make faster, better-informed decisions. This is a role where technical excellence meets meaningful impact. Where your accounting expertise directly enables us to focus on what matters most: transforming lives affected by dementia.

In this role, you'll focus on audit. You'll be the cornerstone of trust and credibility that gives stakeholders confidence in our financial integrity. Drawing on your audit background, you'll lead our audit activities end-to-end, prepare comprehensive audit deliverables, including consolidated financial statements and manage relationships with external auditors.

Your technical expertise and meticulous approach will ensure we navigate regulatory requirements with precision and professionalism.

Working in partnership with colleagues across Finance and the wider Society, you'll champion compliance in a way that enables rather than constrains our mission. You'll build relationships with external auditors and regulators. You'll support teams across directorates to understand and meet their financial obligations and proactively identify opportunities to strengthen our financial governance and control environment.

About you:
You're a qualified accountant with an audit background who brings deep knowledge of audit processes. You understand that robust financial controls build the credibility and trust that allows a charity to maximise its impact. You're comfortable preparing audit deliverables and technical accounting adjustments, and you can explain complex regulations clearly to help colleagues across the organisation make informed decisions.

You'll have:

- A CCAB qualification achieved through education, or demonstrable equivalent knowledge and experience that evidences your understanding of the role's requirements.
- Significant audit experience - ideally from practice or an in-house audit function.
- Demonstrated experience as a Financial Accountant in a large or complex organisation.
- Good working knowledge of relevant legislation and regulations.
- Experience preparing and reviewing complex technical accounting adjustments with precision and professional judgment.
- Experience championing robust financial controls and processes, with evidence of identifying control weaknesses and driving improvements.
- The ability to work effectively across departments and at all levels of the organisation. Translating complex accounting and regulatory requirements into clear, practical guidance for diverse audiences.
- Experience with cloud-based ERP systems (we use Unit4).
- A commitment to continuous improvement, bringing best practice and fresh thinking to audit and compliance delivery.
- Experience mentoring and coaching colleagues to support them in their career development.

What you'll focus on:

- Leading audit activities end-to-end - preparing high-quality deliverables, including the consolidated financial statements, managing timelines, and building constructive relationships with external auditors and regulators.
- Ensuring accounting records comply with Charities SORP/FRS102, company law and charity law. Preparing and reviewing complex technical accounting adjustments with precision and professional judgment.
- Championing robust financial controls and processes, proactively identifying weaknesses and driving improvements that strengthen our control environment and record-keeping standards.
- Building trusted partnerships across the Society, helping colleagues understand compliance requirements and making financial governance something teams engage with positively.
- Working seamlessly with colleagues across the Finance team to provide integrated, end-to-end financial partnership to the Society.
- Driving continuous improvement in financial accounting standards, using feedback, data, and sector best practice to elevate quality while role-modelling our values and a culture of accountability.
