The Hunger Project UK Fundraising and Campaigns Coordinator

Are you looking for a role that really makes a difference helping to empower women and men to end their own hunger and poverty? 

About The Hunger Project UK

The Hunger Project UK is a small, mission-driven charity and UK fundraising partner of The Hunger Project — a global movement founded in 1977 with more than 40 years of evidence that ending hunger is possible. Working across 13 programme countries in rural Africa, South Asia and Latin America, The Hunger Project pioneers sustainable, grassroots, women-centred strategies, believing that people living in hunger are themselves the key to ending it.

We are a lean, consultant-based team with an ambitious three-year strategy. We work collaboratively, we work with purpose, and we care about the quality of everything that carries our name.

The role

We are looking for an experienced Fundraising and Campaigns Coordinator — with at least five years in a fundraising role within the charity sector — to join our small team in the second half of 2026. This is a hands-on delivery role: you will be the person who owns campaigns end to end, builds the newsletters, schedules the posts, writes the copy and gets things live.

You will work within a clear strategic direction set by the senior team, but you will own everything from there — developing the angle and narrative, writing the copy, submitting the application, building the promotional plan across all channels, and closing it out with donor reporting and thanks. We want someone who takes a steer and runs with it, and who brings genuine creative and fundraising intelligence to how the work gets done.

This is a part-time, flexible consultancy engagement. We work to a variable monthly arrangement — hours flex with the needs of the organisation, averaging 30–40 hours per month, with busier periods during campaigns.

What you will do

Fundraising campaigns

• End-to-end ownership of Big Give and matched fundraising campaigns across all three annual rounds — from developing the angle and narrative through to application, asset creation, public-facing campaign, social content and donor impact follow-up
• Supporting funding applications and proposals with compelling, well-researched copy
• Managing and maintaining content and access across multiple fundraising platforms

Communications and content

• Newsletters and campaign emails via Mailchimp, built to brief and on brand
• Social media content creation and scheduling across LinkedIn, Instagram and Facebook, using Canva and Later
• Short-form video editing for Reels and social content
• Website content updates and maintenance in WordPress
• Brand consistency across all channels and materials, applying THP guidelines independently
• Liaison with THP global communications teams who hold brand collateral

Supporter experience

• Donor journey content in Beacon CRM, supporting the supporter communications flow
• Continuous improvement of supporter-facing content and touchpoints
• Simple monthly reporting on comms and campaign performance

What we are looking for

You are an experienced fundraising and campaigns professional who is genuinely energised by getting things done. You understand how donors think, you write well, and you can hold a campaign from first conversation to final thank-you without being chased. You are tools-confident and comfortable with working independently.

Essential

• Solid experience of at least 5 years in a fundraising and/or campaigns role in the charity sector
• Fundraising literacy — you understand what a donor journey is for, how matched fundraising works, and how to write copy that moves people to give
• Strong writing skills — clear, purposeful, on-brand; able to adapt tone across audiences
• Hands-on proficiency with Mailchimp, Canva and social media scheduling tools such as Later
• WordPress experience — content updates and basic maintenance
• Comfortable working in a small, collaborative organisation without a large support structure
• Self-starter: able to work from a strategic steer and own delivery end to end without day-to-day supervision
• Genuinely comfortable with variable hours

Desirable

• Experience of international development or women-focused organisations
• Experience with Big Give campaigns or similar matched fundraising
• CRM experience, particularly Beacon
• Short-form video editing for socials

Terms of engagement

• Consultancy basis or fixed term contract, with a view to extension
• Approximately 30–40 hours per month on average; hours vary with organisational need and will be higher during campaign periods
• Fully remote, UK based; occasional in-person meetings in London. Applications are accepted only from candidates with the right to work in the UK.
• £1,200-£2,000 per month, to be agreed on appointment
• Reports to CEO; day-to-day direction from our Operations and Relationships Consultant

How to apply

To apply, please send your CV and a covering note of no more than one page telling us why this role interests you and how your experience is relevant.

We will review all applications and respond to every candidate. Selected applicants will be invited to complete a short skills exercise before the interview. Interviews will take place in August 2026.

Application deadline: 27 July 2026.

We are committed to an inclusive recruitment process and welcome applications from candidates of all backgrounds. If you require any adjustments to support your application, please let us know.

INTRODUCTION TO THE ROLE

iniva is seeking an experienced, thoughtful and collaborative Website & Communications Manager to join our team at a pivotal moment for the organisation. The role sits at the heart of Living Legacies: Collaboration, Community and Radicality, a four-year National Lottery Heritage Fund project that activates iniva’s archive and connects it with communities through exhibitions, events, podcasts, oral histories and digital resources. Working at iniva is dynamic, creative and purpose driven. As a small organisation, we value people who can work confidently on their own initiative while collaborating closely with colleagues, freelancers and partners. This part-time role (3 days per week) is offered as a fixed-term contract over four years, with responsibilities evolving across the project lifecycle — from strategy and planning in the early stages to website redevelopment, major public programmes and legacy outputs in later phases. The Website & Communications Manager will work closely with the Project Manager and wider team to support clear communication, shared understanding and joined-up audience engagement. The role plays a key part in shaping how audiences encounter Living Legacies and iniva more broadly, ensuring communications are inclusive, accessible and grounded in the organisation’s values. We’re looking for someone who cares about creating more equitable cultural spaces and enjoys sharing stories that connect artists, archives, and communities.

IDEAL CANDIDATE

This role would suit a practical and organised communications professional with strong writing and digital skills. You will be a confident and clear communicator, able to produce engaging, accessible content for a range of audiences across web, email and social media. You will have experience working with websites, including contributing to or supporting a WordPress (or similar CMS) website redevelopment, and be comfortable collaborating with website developers to deliver user-friendly, accessible digital experiences. You will bring the ability to plan and coordinate work across multiple projects, managing timelines, contributors and priorities effectively. Experience supporting or overseeing freelancers such as PR consultants, graphic designers, photographers, videographers etc or external partners is helpful, alongside a collaborative approach and good organisational skills. We are particularly interested in candidates who bring transferable skills from other sectors, along with curiosity, initiative and a willingness to learn. You should be motivated by working in a small, purpose-driven team and be committed to inclusive, accessible communication. This role supports a multi-year heritage project focused on the histories and practices of Black and Global Majority artists. We particularly welcome applicants with lived experience and/or a strong interest in these areas, and a commitment to inclusive, anti-racist and accessible communication practices. We know that no one will meet every requirement. If you meet most of the criteria and feel excited by the role, we encourage you to apply
