Job Overview
You’ll be responsible for developing and delivering our portfolio of mass participation and challenge events, ensuring excellent supporter experiences and sustainable income growth.
The role will lead on recruiting and supporting event participants across a mixed portfolio (including guaranteed places, third‑party event and challenge providers, international challenge events and CCLG‑owned events such as our Big Hike). You’ll also take a pro‑active role in growing CCLG’s own events programme, identifying, testing and helping to scale new opportunities, while maintaining strong reporting, compliance and supporter care.
Events fundraising is a key area of growth for CCLG, and we’re looking for a passionate, focused and driven individual to support the team to make our ambitious growth plans a reality.
We’re looking for a confident communicator, with strong organisation skills, who’ll use their own initiative and ability to manage a varied workload. You’ll be self‑driven, motivated by achieving targets and delivering the best possible supporter experience. The role involves project management and innovation, and you’ll be responsible for confidently driving projects forward, whilst confidently managing a range of internal and external stakeholders.
This role is offered on a hybrid basis, with an expectation of two days per week in our Leicester office.
