Job description

Dose of Nature is moving towards sustainable national delivery. With strong clinical foundations, independent research demonstrating measurable impact, and growing partnerships across the health and heritage sectors, we are now strengthening our fundraising capability to support our next phase.

This is an opportunity to join a small, ambitious organisation where evidence, demand and strategic momentum are aligned, and where strong fundraising delivery can directly support the scale and reach of impact.

About Dose of Nature

Dose of Nature is transforming the UK’s approach to mental health by placing nature at the heart of mental health interventions.

We deliver clinically led, volunteer-powered nature prescriptions that achieve clinically measurable outcomes. Independent research, including a two-year study with the London School of Economics, has demonstrated statistically significant improvements in wellbeing, life satisfaction and purpose among participants.

Dose of Nature currently operates with approximately £500k annual income. As we scale our partnership and membership models, we aim to grow this to c.£800k per year over the next three years, enabling sustainable national delivery and increased access for communities across the UK.

Our priorities over this period include:

  • Expanding partnership hubs across multiple regions
  • Launching an accredited membership model to scale delivery
  • Piloting and embedding Dose of Nature prescriptions within NHS programmes
  • Strengthening academic research, accreditation and national influence

The Role

This is a key fundraising role within a small and collaborative charity team.

As Fundraising Lead, you will play an important part in developing and delivering a diversified fundraising pipeline, with a particular focus on trusts and foundations, alongside philanthropy and selected partnership opportunities.

You will report to and work closely with the Director of Growth & Strategy, who leads overall fundraising strategy and senior relationships, while you focus on driving day-to-day fundraising activity, pipeline development and funder engagement.

This role would suit an experienced fundraiser who enjoys both planning and delivery; from researching opportunities to developing strong proposals and stewarding funder relationships.

Key Responsibilities

  • Fundraising Planning and Delivery
    • Contribute to development and implementation of fundraising plans aligned with organisational priorities
    • Build and manage a pipeline of opportunities across trusts, foundations and philanthropy
    • Identify opportunities for multi-year and core funding
    • Support income tracking and forecasting
  • Trusts and Foundations
    • Lead research, cultivation and application development
    • Prepare high-quality, evidence-based funding applications
    • Build strong and professional relationships with funders
    • Coordinate grant reporting and stewardship
  • Philanthropy and Supporter Engagement
    • Support engagement with individual donors and philanthropic supporters
    • Contribute to development of funding materials and cases for support
    • Maintain effective stewardship and communication
  • Partnerships and Funding Opportunities
    • Contribute to funding proposals linked to partnership hubs and programme delivery
    • Help identify aligned funding opportunities with partner organisations
  • Systems and Organisation
    • Maintain a clear and organised fundraising pipeline
    • Provide regular updates on fundraising activity
    • Ensure fundraising activity follows best practice and compliance requirements

What Success Looks Like (Year 1)

  • A structured and well-managed fundraising pipeline
  • High-quality proposals and reporting delivered consistently
  • New income secured from trusts and philanthropic supporters
  • Strong relationships established with key funders
  • Clear fundraising processes and ways of working embedded

About You

We are seeking an experienced fundraiser with a strong track record in trusts and foundations fundraising.

You are likely to:

  • Have demonstrable experience securing funding from trusts and foundations
  • Be confident developing strong funding proposals and reports
  • Have experience managing or contributing to fundraising pipelines
  • Be organised and comfortable managing multiple priorities
  • Build effective and professional relationships with funders
  • Be motivated by improving mental health outcomes and social impact

Experience in health, mental health or community sectors may be helpful but is not essential.

Why Join Now?

Dose of Nature is moving from proof of concept to sustainable growth.

We have strong clinical foundations, robust independent research, and an expanding partnership network. The next stage is to secure the funding that allows this model to grow and reach more people.

Joining now means playing a meaningful role in shaping the fundraising foundations that will support that growth.

Benefits

  • Pro-rata annual leave entitlement of 25 days + bank holidays
  • Employer pension contribution in line with statutory requirements
  • Flexible and hybrid working arrangements
  • Opportunity to work within an evidence-led, growing national charity
  • Professional development opportunities

Our Commitment to Inclusion

Dose of Nature is committed to building a team that reflects the diversity of the communities we serve. We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds, particularly those underrepresented in the charity and mental health sectors. We are committed to creating a supportive working environment and are happy to discuss flexible working arrangements and reasonable adjustments during the recruitment process.

  • Your CV
  • A supporting statement (maximum 2 pages) outlining:
