Campaign Project Lead

We're now The King's Trust. And we're still working for young people.

We've changed our name from The Prince's Trust to The King s Trust. Rest assured, the support we offer young people remains the same. This change marks an exciting new chapter for us, and we hope you'll continue supporting us to transform young lives.

We are looking for an experienced project manager to join us on a fixed-term basis until 31st October 2025 to lead the development, management and fulfilment of a £1m fundraising campaign with a high-profile media partner.

This campaign will support young people in London who will be leaving school in 2026-27 without a clear pathway from secondary education into employment, further education or training, and you will play a vital role in helping these young people to have a brighter future.

You will manage the overall relationship with the partner acting as the key point of contact and ensuring the successful delivery of the campaign by promoting effective reporting and information flow between stakeholders as well as holding them to account for their deliverables.

You will help identify campaign activation opportunities and work with relevant King s Trust colleagues to co-ordinate and fulfil fundraising approaches as well as developing the campaign infrastructure such as web pages, data flow and supporter stewardship journeys to maximise our chances of success.

We need someone who can establish and run effective project governance as well as creating the right conditions for decision-making and prioritisation of requirements there will be lots of different teams involved in this campaign, so we need someone who s highly organised and able to delegate or escalate actions as required.
