HOURS: Full Time 

SALARY: £25k-£30k (depending on experience)

LOCATION: Office and home based (remote working) is acceptable within this role. HHAs office is based at: 25 Coney Hill Road, West Wickham, Kent, BR4 9BU

Hope Health Action (HHA) is a Christian NGO passionate about providing life-saving health and disability care to the world’s most vulnerable without discrimination. We work tirelessly to provide health, disability and emergency relief in Haiti, Uganda and South Sudan; empowering local partners to provide dignified and accessible care to the most vulnerable. 

HHA started in 2007 when we co-founded a hospital in Haiti that has since become one of the leading health facilities in northern Haiti, home to a maternity and neonatal unit which cares for thousands of mothers and babies every year and one of Haiti’s leading spinal cord injury rehabilitation centres. In recent years we’ve also launched in East Africa providing emergency relief to the South Sudan refugee crisis, providing life-saving aid through emergency food rations, maternal health care and disability projects. We will soon open a major new disability centre in Bidibidi Refugee Settlement, Uganda. We have exciting plans to scale up our work in the coming years and are looking for an ambitious Community Fundraising & Communications Manager to join the team and help us reach these goals.

The role

We are looking for a dynamic, creative and enthusiastic Community Fundraising and Communications Manager to work alongside our Fundraising and Partnerships Manager (FPM) to help develop and manage our fundraising strategy in the coming years, paying particular attention to building our supporter base, developing new partnerships and increasing income.  We are looking for a self-motivated and ambitious individual with a genuine passion for international development. 

You will have a unique and exciting opportunity to help HHA grow and make a real and tangible impact to our beneficiaries. This includes helping to raise important funds to support the development of our partner hospital in Haiti, alongside a growing range of health, disability and emergency programmes in South Sudan and Uganda.  As a small charity, you will have direct links to our field operations, including the opportunity to regularly visit our overseas programmes and have on-going opportunities for cross-departmental learning. We are a small but passionate, friendly and close-knit team where staff are encouraged to execute creative and new ideas, working together to support each other’s efforts.

This is a busy role that will cover a diverse range of our fundraising activities and require someone with the competence and experience to manage multiple aspects of our strategy. It would be desirable for someone to have previous experience working within a small organisation/charity to understand the dynamics between providing strategic development and handling the day-to-day operations. 

The person

HHA is looking for someone with the vision and energy to develop a clear 3 year fundraising & partnership development strategy with our FPM that will build upon existing strengths of HHA and develop new, innovative ideas in a professional and effective manner. This will require someone with adaptability, creativity and strong relationship building skills, working with our Finance Manager, Country Directors, CEO and Board of Trustees to design, implement and effectively monitor a strategy. You need to be comfortable working to clear annual plans, executing these against agreed financial targets set with the CEO and reporting back.

Comms:

We’re looking for someone to bring new, creative ideas around our communications and marketing, taking the lead with our programme team in identifying strong stories, engaging news/content for our digital and print communication, including our website, emails, newsletters and social media channels, our twice annual newsletter and materials to support campaigns and events. In order for HHA to grow and fulfil our ambitious vision, inspiring and creating a strategy to engage new supporters will be a central objective for this role. 

Community Fundraising:

You’ll work with our FPM on planning and managing a range of annual events in the HHA calendar, from challenge events to galas, from concept to delivery with budget management in between. You’ll also get involved in building and empowering a volunteer team who can help implement the fundraising strategy and help oversee the diversity of activities like our schools and church fundraising activities. With support from our FPM, CEO and design agency, you’ll manage a range of dedicated campaigns and appeals with the support of our in-country team members to deliver growth across HHA’s income streams. Alongside this, you’ll manage HHA’s other fundraising platforms including GlobalGiving, JustGiving and CAF, engaging and maximising impact of HHA’s fundraisers. 

If this sounds like you, we’d love you to join our friendly and creative fundraising team to help us to raise the funds needed to continue our life-saving work to those most in need across Haiti and East Africa.

Closing date for applications is Monday 15th November 2021

We will be hosting interviews in the coming weeks as suitable applicants apply.

About Shelter
A home is a fundamental human need, as essential as education or healthcare.

So, we are striving for change, with individuals, in communities, across society, and leading the way to a safe home. We need ambitious, best-in-class individuals who are passionate about our cause to join us at this exciting time. This is your chance to play a part in the fundamental change we are striving to achieve.

In all our people decisions, we take pride in being inclusive, fair, equitable and transparent.

We’ll also rely on you to effectively manage volunteering activities across all our corporate partnerships. That will involve proactively leading work programmes and collaborating with colleagues in Corporate Partnerships and across Shelter.

Developing new corporate volunteering opportunities that align with our strategy will be important too, and, because we have a large network of stakeholders, you’ll also need to build a number of effective relationships as you actively seek out opportunities to collaborate in order to ensure success. Establishing robust processes and procedures, seeking to continuously improve them and working towards a consistent approach to volunteering at Shelter based on volunteer management good-practice – all are aspects of this interesting and unique role.

We are recruiting a Fundraising Manager to identify and secure new funding from charitable trusts and foundations, and help ensure the sustainability of our work.

What you’ll be doing

You will be responsible for building and managing a range of multi-year, five and six-figure grants, working with some of the UK’s leading charitable organisations. You will research and target those whose criteria match our aims and activities, coordinate your pipeline with other members of the trusts and statutory team and ensure our work is sustainable and impactful.

Based in our development department, you will also work closely with programme managers and other members of staff across the organisation, including the senior management team.

What we’re looking for

You will be passionate about our work and support our values and ethos. You will be skilled at building new relationships with charitable trusts, foundations and other institutional funders to secure both single and multi-year grants, and have experience of managing and increasing grant giving among a portfolio of existing funders. You will be used to working to demanding income targets and able to manage multiple projects, identify conflicting demands and establish priorities to meet objectives.

Why our work is so vital

Poor literacy and resulting inequality is not inevitable. The National Literacy Trust improves the reading, writing, speaking and listening skills of those who need it most, giving them the best possible chance of success.

We make society fairer. Poor literacy creates social and economic inequality. The one in six adults in the UK with poor literacy earn less, are less likely to vote and more likely to experience health inequalities.

We enable social mobility. A child without literacy skills can’t succeed at school, and as an adult they will be locked out of the job market. The pattern is intergenerational and starts at birth.

Our work is targeted at communities with the highest levels of disadvantage and the lowest levels of literacy. We support thousands of schools and early years settings, bringing in wonderful partners like the Premier League and the nation’s best publishers who bring literacy alive. We campaign to make literacy a priority for our nation’s leaders. Our research and analysis make us the leading authority on literacy and drive our interventions.

What we offer you

As well as a competitive salary, we offer benefits including a generous leave allowance totalling 39 days (including bank holidays and office closure between Christmas and New Year), pension contributions of 8% of annual salary, a cycle to work scheme, season ticket loans, employee assistance programme and other health and wellbeing benefits.

We support flexible working and promote a workplace where you can be yourself and contribute to our success, whoever you are.

While you will be based in our office in London, this role can be peformed primarily from home, and you would only be expected to attend for all staff days (approximately 3 per year), team strategy days (around 2 per year) and any in-person training or induction, and any in person funder meetings as required.
