I am delighted to be worked with a wonderful local charity caring for hundreds of people across eastern Hertfordshire each year.

The hospice supports patients and their families who are living with life-limiting illnesses and conditions, including cancer, heart failure or respiratory illness, and neurological conditions such as motor neurone disease. They help people to live pain- and symptom-free so they can make the most of the time they have left.

Demand for their life-changing, compassionate care has never been higher, and they are now supporting more families than ever before. All of their services are free of charge to those who need them, but they are not without cost, meaning the hospice must raise 7 million every year to guarantee the future of our care.

They are looking for a Trusts and Foundations Executive to join the team on a part time basis.

Location: At least 1 day in the hospice in Hertfordshire

Salary: 24,000 - 26,000 pro rata (22.5 hours per week)

Contract: Permanent
