Join us and use your skills, knowledge, passion and energy to help us achieve a future free from arthritis.
We are looking for an experienced fundraiser who has strong experience of raising money in Northern Ireland. This is a relationship-led role that would be ideal for someone who loves working with people and understands network mapping to maximise connection to cause to accelerate income growth. You will have experience of creating strategy, winning new business, and be happiest spending significant time out and about meeting people. While you will be based in Northern Ireland with strong connection to other colleagues based in and out of the Belfast office, this role is part of the Public Fundraising team who are based across England and you'll have regular contact with colleagues in the corporate fundraising and trusts teams.
About the role
In this role you will build strong relationships with volunteers, community groups, clubs, local businesses and others to inspire and motivate them to invest in a future free from arthritis. This is a new role for the charity, and it gives someone the opportunity to shape this area of work and lead on the income opportunities in Northern Ireland. But you won’t be starting from nothing; our Northern Ireland based staff and volunteer group have strong networks and brilliant ideas for supporting your success. You’ll also have support from the wider Public Fundraising team as well as the Philanthropy and Partnerships team. There is so much potential in this area and we’re looking for someone who is excited and has the skills to turn that potential into a strategy for success. And this work has never been more crucial; Arthritis UK Northern Ireland have recently published a landmark report calling for immediate action to tackle the growing musculoskeletal (MSK) health crisis in Northern Ireland, where people are waiting in pain for years to access a diagnosis and life changing surgery.
About you
If your knowledge, skills and experience include the following then we would love to hear from you:
- Experience in partnership fundraising.
- Experience in public speaking, such as giving presentations and talking at events.
- Experience and a keen interest in building long-term relationships with supporters.

- Proactive and confident self-starter, able to work both independently and collaboratively.
- Skilled at supporter stewardship.

About Prostate Cancer Research:
Prostate Cancer Research (PCR) is a research and patient engagement organisation dedicated to creating a future where prostate cancer no longer threatens lives. Through research, innovation, policy & advocacy, and patient empowerment, we work to accelerate breakthroughs in prevention, diagnosis, treatment and care, while ensuring that the benefits of progress reach every community affected by the disease. Our goal is simple: to detect prostate cancer earlier, improve outcomes, reduce inequalities and transform the future of care for all men affected by prostate cancer.
About the role:
It’s been a very successful few years for PCR's Events & Community team with good results across the board, increasing income by over £1 million every year since 2023. And we recently won Fundraising Charity of the Year at the National Fundraising Awards 2026!
Now’s an exciting time to join us as we work on a new multi-year strategy and expand the team yet again, bringing in new resource to give the different activity areas space to grow and ensure we can do our best work – contributing to PCR’s lifesaving mission, developing our careers and enjoying work within an ambitious and supportive environment.
This role is new, created to focus on community fundraising which is a growing area with huge potential for PCR. We currently receive significant unsolicited income from our brilliant supporters, but there is a key opportunity to take a more proactive approach to recruiting new community fundraisers, improving their supporter experience and testing new offerings & products. You will work with the team to create and deliver a plan for this new proactive approach and will lead on day-to-day relationship management with fundraisers.
You will also lead the project management and delivery of some community-focused fundraising events. For example,our annual Snowdonia for Science event or testing new PCR-owned products which work for a community fundraising audience. We currently expect the split of time to be roughly 75% on community fundraising and 25% on events, but the two areas will be closely connected, and this split may change over time. We are excited to work with you to develop the direction of this role as the team and portfolio grows.
You will report to the Head of Events & Community and work closely with the whole team, as well as colleagues across PCR. Most of the Events team try to work together once a week when possible at our London office (Chancery Lane) but we have flexible working arrangements, so you can choose to be office based or hybrid. You would be needed to travel to regular supporter events across the UK (many of which are currently in the London/ SE England area) and to some team days in London on an ad-hoc basis.

- Design and deliver ambitious fundraising budgets for your area which contribute net income towards PCR’s mission.
- Lead the project management and delivery of the community fundraising and events activities you are responsible for.

- Carry out supporter data and income processing tasks as required, including on the CRM and other internal systems.
- Work with the team to create and deliver effective marketing plans which meet recruitment targets.
- Analyse results based on KPIs & supporter feedback, proactively implementing changes & improvements.
- Ensure your fundraising activities are delivered in line with fundraising law & regulations, and with PCR’s policies.

- Lead on the delivery of a great supporter experience for community fundraisers in line with our Public Fundraising manifesto, motivating fundraisers to raise more and remain loyal supporters of PCR.
- Interact with supporters via a range of communication channels and in-person, attending events and presenting about PCR’s work when required. This will include travel, for which TOIL will be given and reasonable expenses covered.
- Lead on relationship management for your area, spotting potential for fundraisers to have a greater impact with PCR as a whole, and working with colleagues in Philanthropy, Partnerships, Patient Projects & across the organisation to achieve this.
- Carry out stewardship tasks using tools like Mailchimp, GivePanel and JustGiving, for which training will be provided.
- Oversee stock management via our fulfilment house and ensure we have high-quality fundraising merchandise.
Product development and innovation
- Seize new opportunities for products, journeys or events which would engage a community fundraising audience, taking a test & learn approach. For this, there will be realistic budgets & an understanding of the investment needed for new ideas.
- Stay up to date with sector trends and maintain a strong understanding of PCR’s existing (and target) supporters to create and implement products and experiences that motivate and inspire.
- Use feedback and data to spot opportunities for the constant improvement of fundraisers’ experience with PCR.
- Work to engage supporters beyond their initial activity, testing ongoing journeys and maximising their life-time value for PCR.

The Community Fundraising & Events Manager may also get involved with other work to support Public Fundraising activities as appropriate. Attendance will be required at weekend and evening events, for which TOIL will be given.
