Access to higher education and the life-changing opportunities that come from attending the most competitive universities is not equal. 28 in 100 of the most advantaged students progress to the most competitive universities. In contrast, only 2 in 100 of the least advantaged young people access these universities.
We think this is fundamentally unfair. We work across the UK to support less advantaged students to access the most competitive universities, and to succeed when they get there.
Between 2021 and 2026, we will work with 100,000 students across the UK to help them to develop the knowledge, skills and confidence to access the most competitive universities. We will also support 10,000 students from disadvantaged backgrounds to succeed once they enter universities.
We hope that you’ll consider joining us, as we work to create a fairer society where no child’s education is limited by their background.

Are you a skilled and knowledgeable fundraiser who can help us secure the funding we need to ensure that children and young people with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) receive the education they are legally entitled to?
We’re looking for an experienced and ambitious fundraiser who is keen to develop their skill set across the fundraising mix and looking for an opportunity with strategic input. Making applications to trusts and foundations to secure grant funding will be the key focus of the role, so you will need to have a successful track record in either trusts and foundations or corporate fundraising with extensive experience of bid writing and stewardship. However, we are keen to develop other income streams over the next few years, particularly corporate partnerships and community fundraising so we are looking for someone who is interested in broadening their expertise.
You will be stepping into a role with an established funding pipeline as we have secured a number of multi-year grants.
You’ll work closely with IPSEA’s CEO and members of the wider management team to identify opportunities, develop relationships and compellingly communicate the need for, and impact of, the work we do.
The role is a full-time position (part-time also considered) that can be office-based, home-based or hybrid, with monthly visits to the IPSEA office in Takeley, Essex and/or London.
