“If it wasn’t for the treatment I received at the scene of my accident, and the fast transportation to a hospital, I would not be here today.”

"When the air ambulance arrived I thought it must be serious but I wasn’t aware of the level of expertise and equipment on board. Now I know that’s what made the difference and I wouldn’t be here today otherwise."​

text

"I just can't believe I survived, I’m a very, very lucky man and I’m incredibly grateful to everyone involved.”





The words of just three of the 25,000+ people who have been helped, rescued or owe their life to the Air Ambulance service of Kent, Surrey and Sussex since its inception in 1989.

Thirty years on, the organisation’s still going strong and growing too, creating four fantastic new senior opportunities to lead on fundraising and the supporter experience, working from their base at Rochester Airport.

Specifically, they're seeking the following:

• Director of Individual Giving c.£53,000 
• Director of Fundraising and Events c.£53,000 
• Head of Supporter Experience £45,000
• Head of Individual Giving £38,000

It’s an inspiring place to work, knowing that everything you do has a direct impact on saving lives, and these are all key roles within the project.

We can’t begin to do these opportunities justice here so check out ourAir Ambulance Kent Surrey Sussexpages for plenty more details of the organisation and these fantastic roles:
