Head of Supporter Experience Responsibilities:
If the answer is yes, please read on.
At Alzheimer’s Society, our supporters are the heart and soul of what we do. They make change happen, whether by raising money, campaigning for social care reform, or volunteering to help people with dementia. As Head of Supporter Experience, your mission will be to make sure we’re giving each of these amazing people the most efficient, enriching and rewarding experience possible.
To achieve this, you’ll head up four complementary teams, spanning data analysis and insight, comms and supporter care. All make a crucial difference – directly or indirectly – to the practical and emotional experiences of our supporters. Day-to-day, you’ll use your expertise in manging high-performance teams to help maximise income and engagement from existing Fundraising activity. More widely, you’ll use your curiosity, energy and ‘even better if’ obsessiveness to embed a supporter experience mindset across the Fundraising directorate – working to understand supporters better, amplify their voices, and foster an internal culture of marginal gains so that they, and we, can do even more for people affected by dementia
Head of Supporter Experience Requirements:
You will have extensive experience of successfully managing and improving creative, insight or customer support teams. This need not have been in the charity sector, and you may well benefit from bringing fresh ideas to this role. You will have good familiarity with each of the areas you’ll be overseeing, and be as happy diving into the detail of a particular area as you are thinking big about the bigger picture.
An exceptional influencer and strategic thinker, your outstanding commercial acumen will quickly give you a deep understanding the needs of the business – from individual Fundraising campaigns to organisation-level planning. You will be someone to whom others gravitate for an expert view, while always recognising the limitations of your and your teams’ existing approach – pushing them, and those they support, to always think bigger and better about what they do.
About Alzheimer’s Society:
Alzheimer's Society is the UK's leading dementia charity. With people affected by dementia among the worst hit by the pandemic, there has never been a more important or exciting time to join us and help to deliver the lasting change which people with dementia desperately need.

Hope for the Young is a small UK-registered charity working to remove the obstacles to young refugees and asylum-seekers education and well-being through mentoring, advocacy, and financial support. We currently run two programmes in the UK:
Our Mentoring Project operates London-wide and matches young refugees and asylum-seekers aged 16-25 with trained volunteer mentors who provide tailored one-to-one support and advice according to their needs. Mentors meet their mentees once a week for at least 6 months in local cafes and libraries and support them to achieve their goals and aspirations as they rebuild their lives in the UK.
Our Grants and Advocacy Programme promotes equal access to education for young refugees and asylum-seekers by supporting young people aged 16-28 whose immigration status makes them ineligible for student finance, and to those who are facing extreme financial hardship. We provide educational grants that pay for tuition fees, living allowances, and travel expenses alongside tailored advocacy support and advice throughout their studies.
The Role
We are looking to recruit a Communications and Fundraising Officer on a one-year fixed term contract in collaboration with The Rank Foundation’s Time to Shine Programme.

You will be working within a growing, well-respected charity that values your views and encourages personal and professional development.
We are seeking a proactive, flexible, driven and organised person to support our communication and fundraising activities. This role will be integral to the growth and development of our work and in supporting the young people we work with. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone to hone their skills, gain valuable experience, and develop their career in the not-for-profit sector as part of a dynamic, enthusiastic and supportive team. Hope for the Young is committed to diversity, equity and inclusion and particularly welcomes applications from underrepresented groups and from those with lived experience of the asylum system.
