About the Adopt a School Trust
Founded in 1990, the Royal Academy of Culinary Arts’ Adopt a School Trust is a national charity delivering food education in schools. The Adopt a School team, members of The Royal Academy of Culinary Arts, and those in the hospitality industry trained by us, work with schools with the aim of passing on their passion and expertise. Our vision is that every child learns about food in a holistic sense and has the confidence to eat well, be healthy and happy. Our programme helps children to develop healthy eating habits and encourages an enthusiasm and interest in food and cooking, as well as giving an insight into the hospitality industry.
About the role
In August 2025 we completed the initial phase of implementing the charity’s first CRM system, Beacon. It marks the beginning of an exciting phase of development for the charity that will continue through to the end of 2028 and include other projects to significantly modernise and improve our operations.
A further period of Beacon implementation will follow throughout the 2025-26 academic year. The CRM and Programme Administrator is a new role, created primarily to fill a pressing need for extra admin and office support. However, there is potential for the role to grow alongside the charity’s ongoing digital transformation.
Our CRM system is heavily customised to meet the unique requirements of the Adopt a School programme. Due to the often-complex nature of facilitating relationships between busy schools and hospitality professionals, our system is only lightly automated at present, but this may change in future.

- our team of Regional Chefs
- the chefs and hospitality professionals who volunteer their time and expertise to deliver sessions in schools

- our fundraisers, supporters, partners and suppliers
- the Royal Academy of Culinary Arts team, with whom we share our London office.

- Processing applications and expressions of interest from new schools and volunteers.

- Assisting in continuously reviewing the CRM system, offering ideas to maximise its capabilities and further enhance our systems and processes.
Additional duties
To regularly research and roll out solutions to common operational challenges, in particular ones that relate to data, tools and technology. Examples may include:
- Options for exporting CRM data to third party map and calendar apps.
- Methods for setting up an efficient and scalable assets library.
- Best use of AI tools and technology for supporting our work.
Ad hoc duties:
- Occasional support and attendance at in-person events including volunteer training sessions, industry expos and fundraising dinners.
