Area Fundraising Development Manager Jobs

QSA is seeking two dynamic and ambitious fundraising managers (Trusts and Foundations Manager and Individual Giving Manager) to join a growing team in an inspirational charity. QSA supports many of the communities that have been hit hardest by the financial crisis, from people experiencing homelessness and funeral poverty to asylum seekers. Our work is needed more than ever, and we need to increase our income to be able to support the growth in demand for our services. 

Our services include crisis support for those unable to afford funerals; courses that enable people to manage their money more confidently; practical support for people experiencing homelessness such as a mobile library and a community kitchen space; wellbeing interventions; and a range of community development initiatives.

This is an opportunity to be part of an organisation that really is making a difference to people's lives. As well as working alongside fundraising colleagues, you will also be in close contact with staff working on the front-line and will have opportuniities to connect with the communities who benefit from our work.

QSA was founded by Quakers in 1867, troubled by the social injustices of the time and keen to tackle them. Although we are now an independent organisation, this sense of taking practical action has stayed with us over our 150-year history. There is nothing religious about our work - our services, jobs and volunteering roles are open to all.

Trusts and foundations manager

As a charity that has been working on social justice issues for over 150 years, we have established a strong base of support from trusts and foundations. We now want to expand beyond that base to new grant-giving organisations, particularly those that are interested in the specific needs and issues that each of our services address. We are looking for someone with a strong track-record in securing grants, who is confident in managing all areas of the role from researching and prospecting, writing compelling applications and reports, to nurturing relationships. As part of a small but ambitious charity, you will also be comfortable with managing the pressures of the role and have the flexibility to respond to new opportunities and challenges as they arise.

Individual giving manager

We have developed a strong and supportive community of committed supporters who give generously through direct donations and legacies. We now want to explore ways of maximising income from our supporter-base and engaging new donors. We are looking for someone with a strong track-record in individual giving with experience of maximising income through targetted appeals and engaging new donors. You will be a natural communicator, with excellent written and verbal communication skills, able to inspire and galvanise.

To end, a brief insight from Abiola, a participant at QSA’s This Way Up mindfulness and coaching course.

 “I had lost two members of my family in quick succession. I then lost my savings and my job. Usually I deal with problems by going on auto-pilot, panicking and being anxious. The programme taught me to accept things, without giving up. I was able to let go of the things that were not important and I found a different perspective on how to deal with my problems.”

About Kidney Research UK:

Kidney Research UK is the leading charity in the UK focused on funding research into the prevention, treatment and management of kidney disease. Our vision is the day when everyone lives free from kidney disease and for more than 60 years the research we fund has been making an impact. But kidney disease is increasing as are the factors contributing to it, such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease and obesity, making our work more essential than ever.
At Kidney Research UK we work with clinicians and scientists across the UK, funding and facilitating research into all areas of kidney disease. We collaborate with partners across the public, private and third sectors to prevent kidney disease and drive innovation to transform treatments.

Over the last ten years we have invested more than £58 million into research. We lobby governments and decision makers to change policy and practice to ensure that the estimated 7.2 million people living with all stages of kidney disease in the UK have access to the most effective care and treatment, and to make kidney disease a priority.

Most importantly, we also work closely with patients, ensuring their voice is heard and is at the centre of everything we do, from deciding which research to invest in to how we plan our priorities and our work across the charity.

Those patient contributions are vital, always helping us and our partners to understand what life is like with kidney disease, always ensuring we see the patient behind the treatment and always reminding us that behind every statistic and every number is a person – the patients and the carers who inspire our mission and push us forward to make a difference and change the future of kidney disease.

You may have experience in the following roles: Event Manager, Conference Manager, Special Events Manager, Event Planner, Meetings and Events Manager, Corporate Events Manager, Fundraising Events Manager, Charity Events Manager, Charity, Charities, Third Sector, NFP, Not for Profit, etc.

About Rockinghorse Children’s Charity

Rockinghorse Children’s Charity supports children across Sussex. We support babies, children, young people and their families at the Royal Alexandra Children’s Hospital and the Trevor Mann Baby Unit in Brighton and all of the specialist children’s wards and baby units throughout Sussex. 

We deliver and fund projects that enable doctors, nurses and other health professionals to do more. All of projects are led by the needs of children and young people and their families.  This includes lifesaving medical equipment, support for parents and families, toys for children spending time in hospitals across Sussex, the environments and spaces that help children feel more at home when they are in hospital and additional staff to make sure children get the best possible care when they are unwell. 

Originally set up in 1967 by Dr Trevor Mann, we have been supporting children for more than 55 years. In that time, we have supported nearly a million children and their families. As the official fundraising arm of the Royal Alexandra Children’s Hospital, including the Trevor Mann Baby Unit, we work with the NHS, charity partners and the Sussex community to ensure children can be children no matter how unwell they are. 

We do not receive any government, statutory or local authority funding and so we rely on the generous support of individuals, community groups, companies and trusts: people like you, who care about children and want Sussex to be a safe place for children to grow up. 

About the role

In 2022 we launched our three-year strategic plan, which prioritised our activities to enable us to support more babies, children and teenagers. As we enter the final year of this strategy the charity continues to expand and develop its projects and services for sick and disabled children all over Sussex: 

We are thrilled to embark on an exciting new project, the Rockinghorse Wellbeing Service, designed to proactively enhance the mental health and well-being of hundreds of children, young people, and families living in Sussex. This innovative service will be situated at the Royal Alexandra Children's Hospital in Brighton.

The Wellbeing Service Manager will be responsible for delivering certain activities based on their skills and experience, collaborating with third-party providers and volunteers for others. This may involve bedside activities to improve the experience of in-patients, as well as group activities within the hospital or out in the community.

Each activity will undergo careful planning and evaluation, incorporating the voices and perspectives of young people. This approach ensures that we provide the most impactful activities to meet their needs.

Our primary goal is to support children and young people managing various illnesses, conditions, and disabilities through activities that alleviate stress and foster connections with others undergoing similar experiences.

We are currently seeking a dedicated and passionate Wellbeing Service Manager to join our team and take the lead on this new service.
