The role

We are looking to appoint a program manager to join the Raspberry Pi Foundation's US team to help grow the reach and impact of Code Club.

Code Club is a global movement of free coding clubs where young people aged 9-16 years old develop the confidence to create with digital technologies. Code Clubs are run by teachers, educators, and volunteers from all walks of life and take place in schools and community settings, like libraries, museums, and maker spaces.

Reporting to the National Program Manager, you will play a key role in expanding and sustaining this network across the United States.

You will help coordinate volunteer and mentor recruitment, onboarding, and training, including through both online and in-person activities.

We are looking for someone who has experience of working with schools and youth-focused community organisations. You should also have experience of mobilising volunteers to work with young people. You will need to be a great communicator and you will ideally have some experience of delivering training.

You don’t need to be an expert in computer science or coding, but you do need to bring a passion for our mission and a willingness to learn.

This role is based in the Twin Cities, Minnesota, which is one of the locations in the US where we have established a team. A proportion of your work will be focused on working with school districts and community organisations in Minnesota, but your work will also be national and you will need to be able to travel to events across the US.

We strive to make the Foundation a place where talented people who care about our mission can do the best work of their careers. We have a flexible and collaborative approach to all aspects of our work. If you’re the right person for the job, we’ll make it work for you, and you can be confident that you’ll be working with an exceptional team.

Coordinate and deliver training sessions and events (virtual and in person) for new and existing Code Club mentors.
Lead initiatives to recruit and engage volunteers, working with schools, libraries, nonprofits, and industry partners.
Contribute to efforts that ensure Code Club reaches young people from backgrounds that are underrepresented in the tech sector.
Contribute to the improvement of the learning experience at Code Clubs, by collecting feedback, sharing best practices, and helping to develop training resources.
Assist in data tracking and reporting to help monitor progress and inform decisions.
Support Code Clubs and partners to understand and follow our safeguarding policies and practices.
Represent Code Club at events, conferences, and community events.

Experience and personal attributes

We recognize that everyone has the potential for growth, and we welcome applications from candidates who can demonstrate that they have some, but not all, of the experience and personal attributes listed here.

Experience working with schools, teachers, or youth-focused community organizations to advance learning opportunities for young people, ideally in computer science, coding, or STEM-related fields.
A good understanding of the US education system.
Experience mobilising volunteers to support the delivery of educational programs.
A great communicator, ideally with experience of delivering training.
A strong alignment with the Foundation’s mission and values, particularly around educational equity and access.
Experience working collaboratively and supporting colleagues across multiple projects and priorities.
Flexibility, adaptability, and a collaborative approach to working with colleagues and external partners.
Experience of the collection, management, and analysis of feedback and data, and the ability to use that to drive improvement. Ideally you will have experience of working with Salesforce, but if not we can support you with training.
Strong verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to inspire and engage diverse audiences.
The ability to travel within the USA.
