Are you passionate about working for a strong cause? Are you a confident communicator with great attention to detail? Are you a meticulous planner with excellent organisational skills? Are you an excellent relationship builder? If so, we’d love to hear from you.
We’re seeking a talented and cause-driven Education project co-ordinator to join our dynamic team, working to achieve our vision of safe and healthy streets. You will inspire, inform and engage educators and communities across the UK to fight alongside us to stop the world’s biggest killer of children and young people – road crashes – and enable people to cycle and walk without fear of traffic. Your work will inspire people to learn more, unite and achieve the solutions needed to save lives and the planet.
Brake is the national charity tackling the daily, horrific carnage of deaths, injuries, and air pollution on roads. Traffic is the biggest killer of young people worldwide, poisoning our lungs and contributing hugely to the climate emergency. Brake’s vision is that people get around in safe and healthy ways. Our values require us to be evidence-based, aim high, and work collaboratively.
We have a 29-year reputation for shouting out for positive change, advising government, encouraging action in communities, and delivering the UK’s National Road Victim Service for bereaved and injured families.
We work with schools and families, communities and companies to champion the cause of road safety and raise awareness of key road safety issues. Brake is committed to delivering education programmes to improve knowledge, develop and enhance skills, and shift attitudes towards road safety and active travel.
Who you are:
An experienced and ambitious project and programme officer looking for a new challenge engaging with the education sector on the crucial issue of road safety.
Key Responsibilities:
- Full-scale project management from planning to execution and reporting.
- Assess and recommend new projects or changes to existing ones.
- Identify, assess, and mitigate project risks.
- Build relationships with key stakeholders to ensure effective information flow.
- Utilize project management frameworks (Waterfall, Agile) for marketing strategy, audience segmentation, and CRM.
- Manage project data using our internal software and CRM database.
Who You Are:
- A project management professional with a relevant qualification or equivalent experience.
- Proven experience (3+ years) in project planning, execution, and budget management.
- Skilled in managing large, complex projects involving multiple teams.
- Excellent at meeting deadlines, prioritizing tasks, and adapting to changing needs.
- Strong communicator with the ability to influence and collaborate effectively.
- Detail-oriented with excellent organizational and IT skills.
- Resilient, solution-focused, and driven to make a positive impact.
About the team and how we work
- Brake is passionate about creating an inclusive workplace that values diversity. We welcome your application whatever your background or situation. We particularly welcome applications from those who are part of the global majority, the LGBTQIA+ community or disabled. We do not want you to ‘fit’ our culture, we want you to enrich it. So, if you have a passion for making a difference and share in our vision for a world where no one is killed on our roads, we would love to hear from you.
- Employees are subject to driver licence checks. Please note we do not accept applications from serious traffic offenders due to the nature of our work. Applicants will be asked to disclose any unspent points at interview.
To apply
Submit your CV and a covering letter which clearly demonstrate you have what it takes to perform this challenging and rewarding role by Friday 5th July at 5pm.
We work to stop road deaths and injuries, support people affected by road crashes and campaign for safe and healthy mobility for all.
