Area Fundraising Manager East Jobs in Cambridge, Cambridgeshire
At Help for Heroes, we help the Armed Forces community live well after service.
There are many ways we help veterans, their relatives, serving personnel, and people who worked alongside the UK military. We help people with their physical and mental health needs, and a range of welfare issues. Our support gives people the skills, confidence and knowledge to make a success of life after service.
And who are we you’re wondering? We are experts and beginners. Generalists and specialists. Ordinary people with an extraordinary passion towards making a positive change to the lives of our veterans (and having fun while doing it).
As One Team we share a philosophy – I.C.A.R.E. It’s the way we walk and talk, the way we interact with others and how we approach everything we do. We are:
Innovative – Collaborative – Authentic – Resourceful – Energetic.
We have an incredible opportunity for a Community Occupational Therapist to join our team.
The post holder will work with communities in the below regions
- Kent
- Essex
- Lincolnshire
- Norfolk
- Leicester
Please see below for more information on what just might be your future role.
About You
Help For Heroes are looking for a highly skilled, professional, and experienced Occupational Therapist to join our expanding clinical team. Are you a committed, flexible OT with a minimum of 2 years of post-graduate experience looking to expand your skills and have the opportunity to work with the Armed Forces Community? If you have the ability to work independently but still enjoy having the support of a team, you could contribute your skills and experience to improve quality of life. Are you happy to embrace a flexible work pattern as the position will involve frequent travel to meet veterans in their own homes and communities and other organisational commitments including inductions, training and team meetings which may require some overnight stays? If you have experience of delivering Occupational Therapy in both physical and mental health conditions, then your holistic approach will help improve lives. Sleep difficulties and sensory needs are a large part of the role to enable veterans to live as they want to so experience in these areas would be beneficial.
About the Role

By carrying your own defined caseload, you will be able to identify barriers that are affecting veterans’ ability to be as independent as possible and live the life they want to live. You will be assessing, planning, implementing, and evaluating Occupational Therapy interventions for those who have served our country and improving the quality of life of our Heroes. You will have the opportunity to be creative in your solutions and the community setting will allow you to address these needs in the best environment for the Armed Forces Community. This role would be ideal for someone who is looking to take the next step in their career and is keen to be at the forefront of evidence-based practice in a supportive team.
About the Team
You will be joining the clinical team at Help for Heroes to provide community based Occupational Therapy input to armed forces veterans. We are resourceful in finding ways to deliver what is right and fair in the healthcare domain. Our aim is to champion the Armed Forces Community and to do this as one team of OTs and Registered Nurses. If you feel that you could join a team that is excited, confident and ready for tomorrow’s challenges this may be role for you.
What we offer
To enable our employees to thrive in all aspects of their lives we proudly support flexible working practices. You can tailor your working day around your work and private commitments providing you maintain high class service to the team and our veterans at all times.
