Pratham is one of the largest and most respected education charities in India. We developed a model that can teach a child to read and do basic maths in as little as 30 days for £14. We also have preschool, vocational and women's education programmes. 

We have strong support from the UK Indian diaspora and are in a period of significant growth, having tripled in size in three years. We expect to raise £1.8m this year and are ambitious to at least triple again. 

While you will work in a small, fully remote team daily, you will be part of the global Pratham network. The team in India has over 6,000 staff, and they raise $28m locally. Pratham USA has 14 chapters and produces around 12 galas annually, contributing to its $30m income. We have recently launched Pratham International, and we will work with them to reach more children worldwide in the years ahead.

This role will be key in sharing Pratham’s impactful work with our supporters. The core of the role is to manage digital content across email, social media, and our website, and play a vital role in supporting fundraising events, particularly our annual gala which will be held at the V&A in November this year and recruiting runners of the London Marathon.

We expect to launch a new website in 2025, a version of the new Pratham USA website that is due to roll out in mid-March. You’ll have an important role in adapting and tailoring it for Pratham UK.

There is potential for some advocacy work but that is secondary to the fundraising and communications elements.

It is an exciting time to be joining us as we will soon be launching our new strategy for 2025-2030. You will have the opportunity to shape our direction over the coming years as we seek to amplify our voice, ensuring all who need our support know about us, and encourage a more constructive debate about child sexual abuse that focuses on how we can prevent it before it happens.

Your experience in communications might have been gained across different sectors: agency, corporate, public sector or charity. If you feel that you don’t have all the key attributes but you firmly believe in our vision, please don’t be put off applying and instead give us a call to discuss.

About you 

We are looking for a self-motivated person with a passion for our work, tenants, staff, churches and mission. You will be adaptable and equally comfortable with bank reconciliations as writing a commentary on the management accounts. We employ people of hope where humility, a genuine desire to love and serve others, and strength of character are as important as any job description.

We have won numerous awards both secular and Christian including from the Guardian newspaper, the Centre for social Justice and, most recently, the Homeless Link 2024 Excellence Award.

We provide not just shelter and housing know-how, but also the friendship of a church. We are passionate about harnessing the social, financial and spiritual power of churches to enact real change both in them and our tenants.

Our first investor had a real heart for a home for men coming out of prison. Homes are now available for a wide range of people experiencing homelessness: people in recovery from addiction; people sleeping rough; women and children fleeing domestic violence; people coming out of rehab; former prostitutes; refugees; those suffering mental health issues and survivors of human trafficking. 

Roughly 50% of our homes are in our ‘Line-Managed Cities’ (Peterborough, Norwich, Nottingham, Cambridge). The other 50% are found across a further 30+ towns which we franchise out. We encourage others to replicate our model through franchising. The tragedy of homelessness is in every community. Our vision is for every church to lovingly provide the homeless with a home.

Working at Hope into Action UK can be incredibly rewarding. We offer the opportunity to work in a supportive and flexible environment.
