Contract: 1 year Maternity Cover


KIDS is a national charity, founded over 47 years ago, and we provide a wide range of support services to disabled children, young people and their families. We support children with any disability or impairment from birth to 25 years of age. We offer our support to the whole family with the aim of giving disabled children a brighter future.  We help more than 11,000 children each year, but we know there’s much more to do and we need to raise more voluntary income.

We are seeking an enthusiastic and experienced Events Manager to join our busy and dynamic team in London as a maternity cover. You will be responsible for and manage the KIDS events portfolio which includes Special Events and Challenge Events to generate funding for KIDS’ innovative and life-changing projects across the country.

You will be responsible for developing relationships with key external supporters and event committee members. You will have excellent organisational, administrative and communication skills, and the ability to prioritise your workload and meet tight deadlines.  

You will also be responsible for two direct reports, the Events Officer and the Fundraising Administrator.

KIDS aims to double its voluntary income over the next four years, and this is an exciting time to join an expanding fundraising team and have a real impact on our work. Events income will play a pivotal part in achieving our goal, and you will be responsible for organising high quality events that generate income towards KIDS’ vital services.
