With fantastic local knowledge matched by your passion for the cause which will enable you to help our supporters to achieve their ambitious fundraising goals. You’ll also proactively build and develop fundraising groups and recruit individual volunteers and supporters, securing fundraising partnerships and delivering national campaigns, local projects, and maximising community engagement.

This is a field-based role covering East Scotland and Islands (EH, KY, DD, TD, ZE, HS, KW postcodes).

About you

You'll have a proven track record in fundraising at a community level. You will have been involved in projects such as the winning and management of charity of the year or longer-term corporate/clubs/association partnerships, volunteer or people management experiences and supporter/customer engagement. 

With strong evidence of transferable skills and experience, e.g., a track record exceeding KPI’s in sales or account management, customer service, business development or fundraising. You’ll have excellent communication, networking and relationship building skills and be passionate, tenacious, and motivated to make a difference in the fight against heart disease.

This is a brilliant opportunity to join our ambitious forward-looking team and contribute to our recent track record of fantastic growth. This role provides a brilliant opportunity to transition from a local charity to gain experience with one with nationally recognised brand presence. Or for an ambitious salesperson who is an expert in their field, to use their transferable skills to help our vision become a reality. We're brave, informed, compassionate and driven in our fight against heart disease and, if that sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you.

Living in the "EH", "DD" or "KY" postcode area, you will have good knowledge of the fabulous people and opportunities that exist across the East of Scotland. If you intend to relocate, please make this clear in your submission.

You'll also need a full UK driving licence plus previous experience of working remotely and be able to demonstrate an ability to manage and motivate yourself; whilst still working collaboratively with colleagues.
