The successful candidate will be responsible for securing core and restricted grant income for the different areas of Bendrigg’s work to ensure that outdoor adventurous opportunities are accessible to all. For example, one day might involve submitting a grant application for specialist climbing equipment whilst another might involve meeting with a funder to discuss support for our volunteering programme.
This exciting opportunity will focus on raising funds from charitable trusts and foundations, primarily through grants of between four-and five-figures, to achieve overall annual fundraising targets (currently c. £900,000). The Trusts & Foundations Fundraiser will build on the existing strong relationships we have to encourage long-term partnerships, develop new relationships with potential funders and explore new opportunities for support.
The ideal candidate will have the ability to collaborate well with the team whilst successfully managing a varied workload. This role would suit a self-starter who is passionate, motivated and can manage a diverse portfolio of relationships to secure funding and support for Bendrigg’s work.
