Robust logistics are core to how we can make best use of our resources and funding when moving books in and out of our HQs and to recipient organisations, and how we can ensure that our actions are as sustainable as possible. Within this role you will be planning daily driver routes to ensure that our trip planning is as efficient as possible so that ultimately, we can reach and support more children and families.

A small but significant percentage of our books are gifted directly to schools or drop points via local families. This direct partnership is made possible through our map of donation points.

Within this role you will liaise with all new and existing registrants to ensure they can get the most out of their participation. You will also liaise with donors that wish to use these drop points or schools to ensure they donate books that match our requirements and receive information and support showing them the value of their donation.

In both aspects of this role you will be working at the heart of what is a family as we scale and deepen our impact.
