Area fundraising manager jobs in washington d c, district of columbia

We are Retina UK, a national inherited sightloss charity and are currently recruiting for a personable, motivated Community and Events Coordinator to join our friendly, hardworking Fundraising team.  This role will be based in our Buckingham office and will see the successful candidate steward and support our community and supporters, build long term relationships and provide first class customer service. 

In addition, you will maximise the Charity's 50th Anniversary campaign, attend front facing events, generate income, support with administrative tasks, conduct regular research, develop fundraising materials and so much more! 

Quest for Learning is an education charity on a mission to close the gap for primary school children in Oxfordshire who are falling behind - often due to complex and compounding disadvantage. Many of the children we support are growing up in poverty, with limited access to books, low parental literacy, and challenging home environments. Some face health inequalities, live in areas affected by crime, or have recently arrived in the UK as refugees or asylum seekers.

We work closely with schools to provide targeted, high-impact literacy and numeracy programmes that give these children the chance to catch up, thrive, and believe in their potential. On average, our small-group tutoring helps pupils make 13 months of progress in just 10 hours - building not only essential skills, but also confidence, motivation, and a renewed sense of possibility.

The impact extends well beyond the classroom. By supporting children early, we help prevent the need for more complex and costly interventions later in life, from mental health support to exclusion and social care. Our work contributes to stronger, fairer communities by giving every child the foundation they need to participate fully in society. In doing so, we are advancing social sustainability and helping to meet global goals such as the UN Sustainable Development Goals for Quality Education, Reduced Inequalities, and Good Health and Wellbeing.

You will manage our team of tutors, ensuring they have the resources, training, and support needed to deliver our programmes to the highest standard. You will also oversee safeguarding and the measurement of programme impact, working closely with the fundraiser to ensure we have strong data for funding applications.

People shaping their health and care.

Our Mission:

We advocate for more equitable and person-centred health and care, shaped by the people who use and need it the most.

We do this by:

The role

We are looking for an entrepreneurial and ambitious Business Development Manager to lead our organisational efforts around income generation. The role is ideal for someone with experience in fundraising and/or business development interested in leading the work of a small but impactful and highly respected charity in the health and social care space.

At National Voices, fundraising responsibilities are shared across the organisation, so it is important that the successful candidate is able to work in a collaborative way with others and is just as happy with rolling up their sleeves and writing bids and supporting others to.

- With a skilled lived experience team, that works to develop the skills and knowledge of decision makers in health and care around co-production and co-design, and invests in the skills and agency of people with lived experience of health and care.

- With a strong focus on reducing health inequalities and a commitment to anti-racist and anti-oppressive approaches to our work.

While your primary role will be raising funds for National Voices, you will need to be confident in acting as an ambassador for the organisation and in conveying who we are, what we do and the key priorities of our members and people who use health and care.

We are happy to discuss how this sits in your life. This can be agreed by your line manager.

Equality and inclusion

As reflected in our Equality Action Plan, we are committed to being a truly diverse organisation. We want to ensure that our trustees, staff members, lived experience partners and volunteers come from a wide range of backgrounds, each bringing their own unique perspectives and experiences. We want to ensure that everyone feels heard and is fully able to participate and thrive.

We currently have an under-representation of people from racial and ethnic minority groups in managerial roles in our organisation and so would particularly welcome applications from people from these groups.

We welcome applications from people who have been in contact with the criminal justice system. For some roles, you may be asked to undergo a basic or enhanced DBS check, but you will only be deemed ineligible for roles which relate to any offences on your criminal record.

We have a range of benefits in place to ensure everyone can thrive, for example:

· We are a Disability Confident employer

· We offer flexible working wherever possible

· We provide our employees with an annual wellbeing allowance

· And much more

Trees for Cities is the only national charity dedicated to improve lives by planting, protecting and promoting urban trees. We do this by working closely with communities, landowners, partners and funders to deliver transformational change in towns and cities across the UK and overseas. We plant trees in schools, streets, estates, parks and open spaces to create nature-rich urban woodland, hedgerows, orchards, avenues and playgrounds.

Benefitting people and the environment lies at the heart of what we do and this role comes at an exciting time for our organisation. As we enter a critical decade for environmental action, we’re looking for a strategic, ambitious, and collaborative Head of Corporate Fundraising to lead our corporate partnerships programme and secure the vital income needed to power our mission.

This is a unique opportunity to join a passionate, high-performing team at a pivotal moment. With our current strategy, The Turn of Trees (2022–25), coming to a close, and a bold new plan launching later this year, we’re scaling our efforts to drive a movement for tree equity—a future where everyone can enjoy the benefits of trees, no matter where they live. We already work with a range of leading businesses and foundations including BUPA Foundation, CBRE, and Bauer Media, and are seeking a leader who can deepen these partnerships while unlocking ambitious new opportunities.

As Head of Corporate Fundraising, you’ll help shape a bold and proactive fundraising approach, and personally drive high-value partnerships of £100,000+. You’ll combine strategic vision with hands-on leadership—crafting compelling propositions, nurturing long-term collaborations, and ensuring excellence in delivery. You’ll play a critical role in shaping our next phase of income growth, aligned closely with the wider organisational strategy and impact goals.

Trees for Cities is a fantastic place to work. We have a warm, inclusive and vibrant culture, where you will work collaboratively to witness the impact of your work to make a tangible difference in urban communities. If you’re an experienced and passionate corporate fundraiser ready to help build greener, healthier, more resilient cities—this is your moment.

Apply now and join us in growing a future where every street, every school, and every city is alive with trees and the benefit they bring.
