Job description

Are you an energetic, hands-on and passionate fundraiser looking for a new challenge? Are you ready to contribute your talent, skills and drive to a small charity with a big mission?

My client is currently looking for that special someone to have an influential role in growing individual giving across a number of areas. This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced individual to take on this new role within a dynamic and growing team in a fast-paced environment.

You will ideally be someone who stands out from the crowd and can create a loyal and lasting supporter base providing sustainable income for the charity in years to come. You will manage a portfolio of existing income streams such as direct marketing, events, community fundraising and legacies, with much opportunity for expansion within these streams and others.

You need to enjoy generating new fundraising ideas and be strongly target driven. It is essential that you are a highly efficient communicator and confident in using a wide variety of communication methods. You will have excellent copywriting skills and project management skills. You need to be flexible when reactive and analytical when proactive.

Ideally, as a successful candidate you will have experience in at least one of the two focus areas - direct marketing or community/events - and be keen to use what you have learnt to expand your own knowledge in raising more funds.
