Colfe’s is not a stuffy school, but a happy place with a deep feeling of community among its students, parents, staff and alumni. This provides a terrific platform for this position to thrive upon.

Fundraising Priority

Every year, up to 12 pupils from non-privileged backgrounds at local state schools are awarded 100% bursaries to join our Sixth Form. Named our Leatherseller Scholars, these pupils are academically bright but often qualify for free school meals, and many have no access to a sixth form in their current schools. The Leathersellers’ Company launched this programme in 2009, and today, their grants are combined with donations to the Colfe’s Charitable Trust. However, awarding even more bursaries is urgent and essential. Applications for these awards are extremely high, and this demand now outpaces what we can provide in support. We must expand our fundraising efforts so that Colfe’s can support even more deserving pupils.

Skills and Attributes:

• 3-5 years’ working in Development. Experience working in a charity or educational setting necessary.
• Proficient in using Raiser’s Edge.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• Organised, entrepreneurial and creative with natural problem solving skills.
• Ability to multi-task, self-prioritise, and manage multiple projects at once.
• Team player with flexibility to adapt to the changing dynamics of the division.
• Highly collaborative and emotionally intelligent with the ability to develop new relationships with ease. Relates well to a diverse audience of stakeholders, including current and former parents, alumni, pupils, staff, Governors and friends.

The standalone HR Manager will play a pivotal role in fostering a positive work environment, ensuring compliance with employment law, and aligning HR initiatives with business goals.
