Warning Zone is a busy, friendly and ambitious charity based in Leicester working to keep children safe, educating them in an interactive way about the risks they will face and building resilience to coercion, both offline and online. Our values and culture focus on keeping children safe. An enhanced DBS check will be required for this role.
We have an established, thriving interactive safety centre, with a great reputation and excellent partnerships, for Year 6 primary school children, as well as a mobile show (Roadcrew) about online exploitation and radicalisation that we take to secondary schools.
We are an independent local charity and we need to raise all our own funds. Our funding currently comes from institutions, trusts and foundations, companies, events and individuals. Our service users (primary schools) pay a contribution towards the cost of the services they receive.
We need your enthusiasm, creativity and communication skills to engage with people from different audiences and ensure the best approaches to various activities such as volunteer recruitment, fund raising, new initiatives and raising awareness of our activities and achievements. Ultimately, we’ll trust you to help us remain current, relevant and robust for the future, ensuring our brand and profile are heightened and our fundraising targets are achieved. You will be able to manage your own workload whilst being a committed and open team member during this exciting time for Warning Zone.
In return you’ll work with an organisation with purpose, in a supportive team in a bright and airy building which is humming with activity. We offer flexible working, although there will be some essential cover required at specific times. This is a fantastic opportunity to join an ambitious local charity and we look forward to hearing from you.
