Do you want to play an important role in creating opportunities for young people and helping to improve outcomes for disadvantaged children and families in Southwest London?

Emanuel School is looking for a warm, organised and proactive Community Partnerships Co-ordinator to help deliver its ambitious outreach and partnerships programme.

This is a rewarding role for someone who enjoys building relationships, bringing people together and making good things happen.

The role

You will oversee the co-ordination and administration of Emanuel School’s community partnership and outreach activities, working with local primary and secondary schools, charities, community organisations, as well as pupils and colleagues across the school.

The school’s partnerships work supports a culture of community service, shaped by its values of Aspiration, Connection and Empathy. Through programmes such as Primary Ambitions, Ascent and Year 6 Enrichment, you will help create positive opportunities for Emanuel pupils and the wider local community.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Helping to organise and deliver key partnership and outreach programmes

• Building and maintaining positive relationships with local schools, charities and community partners

• Co-ordinating logistics, resources and communications to ensure events and activities run smoothly

• Sharing positive and consistent messages about the programme through publications, social media and the school website

This is a full-time role during term time plus four additional weeks. Flexibility will be needed around planned events, and some evening and Saturday morning work may be required.

About you

We are looking for a confident, personable and highly organised individual who can build rapport with a wide range of people. You will bring excellent written and spoken English, strong planning skills and the ability to manage tasks calmly and professionally.

Experience of project co-ordination, outreach, partnerships, education or charity work would be helpful, but it is not essential. Emanuel is open to candidates from different sectors who can bring energy, integrity, discretion and a genuine commitment to supporting young people and the wider community.

This role also offers the potential for significant career development over time for the right candidate.

Working at Emanuel

There is a genuine buzz at the school. Colleagues enjoy their work and, like the pupils, are ambitious for the school.

Everyone works hard here, and anyone joining the school should expect to do so. There’s a strong sense of community and source of friendship. From the briefing to all staff, to the half termly staff meetings, termly consultative group meetings and a common room committee, there’s ongoing dialogue about the school’s aims.

We aim to look after our staff too. We have an appraisal scheme with a focus on the employee’s professional development; we sponsor postgraduate courses and a range of training opportunities; we offer a healthcare plan via Simply Health that includes counselling and medical support; and we’re committed to supporting staff wellbeing. On a more practical level, all staff benefit from good pension provision and free lunches.

The closing date for this role is 15 August 2026.

Note that interviews may be held at any stage after applications are received, so candidates are advised to apply as soon as possible.
