Are you the right candidate for this opportunity Make sure to read the full description below.

Are you a visionary leader with a passion for social impact and educational enrichment? The Birkbeck and William Ellis Schools Trust is seeking its first Director - a dynamic and strategic individual dedicated to advancing opportunities and support for students at William Ellis School in Camden, North London.

As Director, you’ll be at the helm of a small but impactful charity, supporting initiatives that foster confidence, wellbeing, and a sense of belonging among students, particularly those from under-resourced backgrounds. This role offers a unique opportunity to shape and drive our mission to make William Ellis School a leader in comprehensive education and to cultivate positive social capital, personal growth, and educational opportunities for all.

Your key responsibilities will include:

  • Fundraising: Securing and managing funds through grant writing, donor cultivation, and strategic partnerships.
  • Strategic Leadership: Developing and implementing a vision to support educational and personal development programs.
  • Community Engagement: Building and strengthening relationships with businesses, educational organisations, and community stakeholders.
  • Storytelling & Advocacy: Raising the Trust’s profile by effectively communicating its impact through various media channels.

Working closely with the school’s leadership and Board of Trustees, you’ll also oversee compliance and financial stewardship to ensure transparency and sustainability, aligning all activities with the Trust’s values. While this is a sole leadership position, you’ll be supported by a vibrant school community, including dedicated trustees, parents, and alumni.

We’re looking for someone with a proven record in fundraising and strategic planning, who is motivated by social impact and driven to make a difference. If you are a self-starter with a ‘can-do’ attitude, ambition, and the ability to inspire others, we invite you to apply.

The Birkbeck and William Ellis Schools Trust is an equal opportunities employer. We welcome applications from all qualified candidates.

This role involves work within a school environment and supporting activities that benefit young people. The Birkbeck and William Ellis Schools Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people.
