About Raising Her Game

Raising Her Game is a London-based sports charity empowering girls from lower socio-economic backgrounds to experience the benefits of sport. Through school outreach (in school sport lessons), free holiday Camps (typically four 1-2 day camps per year), pathways into local sports clubs and providing free tickets to professional sports matches, we break down the social, cultural and financial barriers that keep girls out of sport - helping them build confidence, health, a lifelong love of the game, and experience all the long term benefits of sport.

We have grown from a small, volunteer- and trustee-led charity into one ready for its first paid member of staff. This is a brand-new role, shaped by the people who have been doing this work by hand for the last two years - so there is real scope to build the systems and processes that will carry Raising Her Game through its next stage of growth.

Purpose of the Role

The Project Manager will take day-to-day ownership of the operational and administrative work behind our Camps and school outreach programme - freeing up our Trustees to focus on strategy, fundraising and partnerships. You will be the main point of contact for families, coordinate our coaches and volunteers, liaise with schools, and manage the many moving parts that make a safe, smooth and joyful Camp happen.

The Role

• Be the friendly, organised point of contact for families - running registration, communications and on-the-day logistics for our Camps

• Recruit and coordinate our coaches, Young Leaders and volunteers, and keep everyone safe, briefed and supported

• Build relationships with local primary schools and organise our outreach visits

• Manage the practical side of Camp — kit, venues, risk assessments and all the details that make the day run smoothly

• Help girls carry on their sporting journey after Camp, through our Camp2Club pathway

About You

• Organised and calm under pressure, with a good eye for detail

• A clear, friendly communicator who can write well for a wide range of families

• Comfortable with everyday admin and data tools, and mindful of GDPR and safeguarding

• Happy working independently, with the flexibility to put in extra hours around Camp dates

• Genuinely excited about our mission to make sport accessible to every girl
