Background Information
The Screen Academy Foundation fundraises for the London Screen Academy (LSA) and the East London Arts & Music (ELAM) - two free-to-attend, Ofsted ‘Outstanding’ sixth form academies for 16-19 year olds in London which, combined, are teaching just under 1200 young people every year. With the opportunity to work alongside an inspiring and supportive Board of Trustees from across the Film, TV, Media, and Music industries, this role is within an ambitious and exciting Foundation.
Part of the same multi-academy trust (the Day One Trust), LSA and ELAM were founded by industry leaders from the film and music industries who wanted to address the lack of diversity, inequality of opportunity and serious skills shortage in the creative industries.
LSA and ELAM’s shared mission is to transform and diversify the creative industries by enabling access to all young people, no matter their background, and to develop the most well-rounded, highly skilled workforce possible, which reflects the cultural and socioeconomic diversity of the world we live in. LSA teaches a behind-the-scenes Film & TV programme in Highbury whilst ELAM teaches Music, Games Design and Film & TV in Bromley-by-Bow.
Everything the Academies offer is practical, relevant and plugged into the real world. By combining an innovative and ever-evolving education with dedicated in-house Industry Engagement and Alumni & Careers teams, we seek to radically change access routes to the creative industries and transform lives and trajectories. Our diverse students are leaving LSA and ELAM highly employable and ‘industry-ready’, with the skills, knowledge, professional behaviours and network needed to fulfil their potential and ensure a successful career.
Fundraising for LSA and ELAM
As sixth form academies, the LSA and ELAM receive funding from the Department for Education. However, in order to provide students with world class facilities and equipment, opportunities to engage with industry, arts and culture, and services to support their mental health, the charity needs to raise an additional c. £2.2m each year to supplement the Government funding.
Philanthropy and corporate partnerships are therefore crucial to the success of the Academies. In addition to major donors and trusts & foundations, LSA has developed partnerships with corporations such as NBCUniversal, Netflix and Disney, and ELAM have relationships with Universal Music Group, UTA and PPL.
Purpose of the Role
This role is a fantastic opportunity for someone looking to build a career in fundraising and gain experience across all areas of the sector. The Fundraising Support Executive will play a critical role in supporting the smooth running of the Foundation, managing essential fundraising administration, working in partnership with the Foundation Director and Senior Philanthropy & Partnerships Manager to secure new donors, ensure excellent stewardship for existing donors and event organisation.
