This is an exciting opportunity to join an inspirational and visionary children's charity as part of their growing fundraising team. Established in 2000, the organisation works to transform the lives of disabled children and their families, enabling them to challenge the barriers they face throughout childhood by providing practical and emotional support.

The charity is going through an exciting period of growth having recently opened a new state-of-the-art facility for multi-disciplinary therapy programmes for childhood disability and research of neurodevelopmental conditions, including autism, within the grounds of Keele University.
This transformational period brings the need to develop all income streams to enable this growth and so they are looking for an experienced Philanthropy Manager to join their team on a permanent basis.
