Location:
North London (Chalk Farm) with four days a week in the office Closing date:
12 p.m. Thursday 28th November *For less experienced candidates who back themselves to deliver, we would be willing to consider this as a ‘Head of’ role at £42,000-£55,000 You’ll be joining at a critical time, one year into a new five-year organisational strategy which contains the ambition to grow income from £2.5m to £8m. Bloomsbury Football Foundation is building the best fundraising team in the country – if you’re smart, ambitious, driven and believe in the power of football, this is the role for you. Our financial assistance model means that no one is turned away, and we cater to young people aged between 18 months to 18 years old. Everyone is welcome, regardless of ability to pay or play. Bloomsbury Football Foundation uses the power of football to improve the physical health, mental health and life chances of young people in London’s most disadvantaged areas. Our step model engages previously inactive young people from underserved communities by running free-to-access programmes in schools, community centres and housing estates before encouraging participants to join our high-engagement, extra-curricular programmes that take place on weekday evenings, weekends and during the school holidays. As a result of our outreach programme, 73% of households in our communities are classed as ‘income-deprived’ by the ONS and over half of our beneficiaries receive income-dependent free school meals – more than double the London average. Founded in 2018, we have grown to work with over 5,000 young people per week across 6 different boroughs, utilising a sliding-scale model of financial assistance to break down barriers to participation in sport for all. We aim to support 20,000 young people in the capital every week by 2028. About the role.
