Diverse Voices Edutainment C.I.O Request (Portfolio)

Organisation Description

Diverse Voices is a performing arts education charity whose mission is to positively affect the wellbeing of children and young people (CYP) who need it most. Through our work we aim to develop both the life skills and artistic skills of disadvantaged CYP – to improve their confidence, communication and resilience; to inspire them to realise their creative potential; and to enable them to participate in society as independent, mature and responsible individuals. Our ethos is to prioritise working with vulnerable CYP in areas of high deprivation, ensuring that they have equitable access to the performing arts and arts-based learning opportunities. We do this through the delivery of performing arts-based learning programmes, creative skills workshops and accredited courses in educational establishments in London and, increasingly, across the UK.

What are they looking for?

We equip and train schools in the remote use of our e-learning platform, which we have developed to support the delivery of guidance on sensitive topics such as harmful sexual behaviour (HSB), healthy relationships, consent and online safety. Our clear aim over the coming years is to increase our trading income from the sale of our e-learning platform, but to do this at scale requires an experience and understanding of trading income partnership-building which we lack internally. We would greatly appreciate the guidance of someone with a business and/or sales background who has experience of setting up substantial, wide-scale trading income partnerships. This could be support delivered remotely or in-person, and we would work with the individual to establish a time-commitment that worked for them.
