Role
We are a small independent charity with ambitions: we want to develop our community fundraising links to help us deliver and develop our specialist neurological services. With 40 years of experience, we want to make sure we can offer the physical and social health and wellbeing support to all those who need it and build meaningful partnerships throughout society to help us do it.
We believe community fundraising makes a huge difference. Good fundraising connects new and creative ideas with local causes and people who are passionate about supporting them. This is a new role, and we want a passionate fundraiser to join our small dynamic team.
You will be responsible for income from all aspects of community fundraising: individual and group participation events and fundraisers, community partner fundraising and in exploring new opportunities for support in our community.
This is a great opportunity to join an established community-based charity and help shape its future. You will help us in building new connections and our approach to community fundraising.
In return for your work, passion and dedication, we offer development opportunities, a benefit package including 30 days’ holiday pro rata, flexible working pattern to help with work-life balance, and an employee Health Plan. But most importantly we offer a positive, supportive work culture where we value innovation, dedication and a good sense of humour.
We are looking for someone with experience of community fundraising and delivering income growth through effective relationship management. You will be people-focused and someone who loves making connections in the community, actively seeking opportunities to support the charity to achieve its ambitious goals.
