We’re looking for a confident and proactive Fundraising Officer to help grow Hillingdon Women’s Centre’s income across trusts and foundations, individual giving and corporate partnerships.

This is a hands-on role where you’ll have the opportunity to build your fundraising experience and make a real contribution to HWC’s growth. You’ll be involved in researching and applying for funding, developing relationships with potential supporters and local businesses, supporting individual giving, and getting involved in fundraising activities and events in the community.

You’ll work with our Development Manager, who will provide support and guidance, and across the wider organisation to help identify opportunities and bring our work to life for funders and supporters.

We’re looking for someone with at least one year’s experience in a fundraising role who is organised, enthusiastic and confident building relationships.
