About Tutors United
Working with housing associations and other local partners, we run free programmes for primary school children and their families, providing access to vital educational support to those who need it most. We're proud to serve diverse, low-income, refugee, migrant, and multilingual communities across London, the Midlands, and the North West. We hire, train, and pay inspiring university students – most of whom also come from low-income households – as tutors, providing them with meaningful, paid work experience and support to boost their careers. Each year, our work gives hundreds of young people, parents and carers the knowledge, skills and confidence they need to maximise education and employment opportunities. We have a brilliant Programme Officer position available for an ambitious, dedicated, and proactive person to join our team!
Job Purpose
This is an exciting time to join our small and impactful team, as we embark on a new four-year strategy, with goals to broaden and deepen our reach and impact, diversify our funding and delivery partnerships, and boost our programmes to support year 6 to 7 transition and tutor career development opportunities.
A major strategic priority is to grow geographically in priority areas and into new core cities - which this role will play a pivotal role in achieving. We began working outside of London during the pandemic when we moved our tuition online and we have continued to adapt and expand our programmes in the Midlands and the North. This is the first dedicated role outside of our London-based Programme Officer team, which will be working closely with the Head of Regions - Midlands and North (who is Manchester-based) to support the successful delivery of our contracts across these regions and to ensure we can continue to scale up and reach more pupils in target areas, where the attainment gaps are even starker than outside London.
The Programme Officer will be responsible for the management and overall delivery of their designated programmes. Over the next four years, we aim to scale our tutoring hubs to reach nearly 1,000 pupils per year in core cities and areas across England. This role will involve managing relationships with tutors, parents and clients, while collecting robust qualitative and
quantitative data to measure the impact and build the success of our work. This is a critical role, leading on the delivery and evaluation of multiple programmes, managing key stakeholder relationships, and contributing to the development of our tutoring programmes in our newer delivery regions.
The Programme Officer will ensure high levels of quality assurance, particularly among tutors working in their hubs, so we achieve our intended outcomes. This is a multifaceted role, working across all parts of the organisation to ensure we deliver the best possible results for our pupils.
We are looking for someone who is enthusiastic about education, has strong stakeholder management skills and is familiar with the Greater Manchester area and/or wider North-West region. You should be able to adapt your communication style to effectively engage with clients, parents, tutors, pupils and funders alike, and have strong written and verbal presentation skills. You will bring brilliant project management skills and be comfortable working with data and using it to make informed decisions.
Our Mission
We're Tutors United. We're on a mission to end the attainment and employability gap through the power of community-based tutoring. We support young people to thrive at two key transition points – from primary to secondary school, and from university to employment.
Please see attached Job Description for full details.

We’re looking for a Fundraising Administrator to support the Fundraising and Comms team at PTES. We have a great working environment at PTES and welcome someone who shares our passion for wildlife and want to grow our fundraising income to help wildlife have a brighter future. This person will be responsible for ensuring the smooth running of fundraising administration, including supporter services, help with financial administration and data processing, and an emphasis on our online shop.
Whether bats or beetles, hedgehogs or hammerhead sharks, we stand up for animals and their habitats. Alarmingly, in the UK almost two-thirds of species have declined in the last 50 years. Globally, around a quarter of mammals face extinction in the next three decades. This rate of loss can be stopped and that’s why People’s Trust for Endangered Species exists. For over nearly 50 years we’ve improved the outlook of endangered species in Britain and throughout the world.
We’ve been standing up for wildlife for nearly 50 years. We’re working to bring our most threatened species back from the brink.

Charity People are honoured to be working with the fantastic First Days charity, on their search for their first ever Director of Fundraising to spearhead a new era of fundraising and take the charity into an exciting new era.
First Days was started in 2013 in response to needs in the local community in Berkshire. Quite simply: there were people with stuff they didn't need and people who desperately needed it. The charity grew very quickly and now, nearly eight years later, they have helped over 10,000 children, and distributed over 250 tonnes of donated goods.
Their aim for the charity is very clear: they want to close our doors because no one needs their service anymore. However, with 4.5 million children living in poverty in the UK they actually need to do the opposite - they need to boldly transform our service in order to launch a project that has the capacity and capability to help children across the UK.
This is their first ever Director of Fundraising role, and the postholder has an incredibly exciting brief: to take fundraising to the next level, shape and deliver a new strategy as they see fit, and build a solid income foundation for years to come, transforming how fundraising is delivered for the charity.

- A full-time role, based out of their Wokingham office
- 28 days annual leave entitlement, plus bank holidays, and in addition to office closure at Christmas
- A company pension scheme, with 3% employer contributions
- A salary sacrifice electric car scheme
About the role
The role will be a key member of the Senior Leadership Team, and be integral to this new fundraising phase, with responsibility for building and delivering a new comprehensive strategy to achieve continued growth and impact. Initial focus will be on corporate partnerships, major donors, and grant applications, and ensure that marketing messages are aligned and across the organisation to maximise reach and fundraising potential.
About you:
They are looking for an individual with boundless ambition, a strategic mindset, and motivated by the potential to make their own stamp on how fundraising is done at First Days. Your fundraising experience across multiple income streams, combined with inspiring leadership qualities, networking prowess, strategic viewpoint and experience with high-level stakeholders will set you apart and ensure income targets are achieved across the team.
You will be able to demonstrate:
- Strategic planning and forecasting
- Experience of multiple income streams
- Delivering business growth
- Exceptional partnership and relationship qualities
- Managing budgets and KPI's
