About The Role: Tender Writer (Volunteer)
We're seeking an experienced Tender Writer to volunteer with Bright Futures 4 All—a charity dedicated to transforming the lives of children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND).
As part of our growing team, you will help secure funding opportunities that enable us to scale our impact, reach more families, and provide essential support—far-reaching change created by your work.
What Difference Will You Make?
Every successful tender submission has the potential to create lasting change. Through your funding bid expertise, you’ll:
- Enable us to expand crucial support services across communities.
- Allow us to increase access to tutoring, mentoring, holiday programmes, and family support.
- Help sustain holiday programmes, wellbeing interventions, and grassroots services for young people with SEND who currently lack equal opportunities.
By strengthening our tender pipeline and grant-writing capabilities, you’ll contribute to a fundamental shift in access to opportunities for marginalised children and their families.
Your work will ensure our charity remains self-sustaining and continues to deliver high-impact programmes—leaving a legacy that outlasts your tenure.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
