Charity fundraising executive jobs

About Access to Sports Project

Access to Sports Project is at a pivotal moment in its growth.

Over the past year, we have secured significant new investment from major funders including National Lottery, BBC Children in Need, Sport England and Garfield Weston Foundation. Demand for our work continues to grow across North London and we are now ready to invest in our first-ever full-time Fundraising Manager.

This is a rare opportunity to shape and lead fundraising within a respected, community-rooted sports charity. This is your opportunity to play a central role in our ambition to become a £1m+ organisation within the next three years.

The Opportunity

The Fundraising Manager will play a central role in managing and growing partnerships with key funders to ensure they are well stewarded, renewed and, where possible, developed into larger, multi-year relationships.

Alongside this, you will be responsible for securing new income, with a particular focus on trusts, foundations and statutory funding, while also supporting the development of additional income streams over time.

While the role spans multiple income streams, the primary focus (especially in year one) will be on trusts, foundations and statutory funding, with other areas (corporate, community, events) developed over time.

You will also help build the foundations for long-term fundraising success by:

• Supporting the development and delivery of a fundraising strategy
• Helping implement a CRM system to manage relationships and pipeline
• Strengthening monitoring and evaluation approaches to evidence impact and support funding

This role does not initially involve line management, but you will lead the fundraising function and play a key role in shaping its future growth.

Key Responsibilities

Trusts, Foundations & Statutory Funding

• Write high-quality funding applications, cases for support and grant reports
• Manage and steward a portfolio of existing funders, maximising renewal and uplift opportunities

Systems, Data & Insight

• Develop and implement a clear monitoring and evaluation approach to support fundraising, reporting and impact measurement
• Research, recommend and help implement a CRM system for fundraising and relationship management
• Track income, prospects, deadlines and reporting requirements
• Produce clear fundraising reports and insights for the CEO and trustees

Relationship Management & New Business

• Build strong, long-term relationships with funders, partners and supporters
• Represent The Access to Sports Project at meetings, events, funder visits and site visits
• Work with the CEO and trustees to unlock networks and cultivate new opportunities

Fundraising Strategy & Delivery

• Co-develop a 3-year fundraising strategy with the Chief Executive and external fundraising consultant
• Translate strategy into clear annual plans, pipelines and targets
• Take ownership of day-to-day delivery and implementation

Collaboration & Culture

• Work closely with delivery teams, coaches and managers to understand programmes and impact
• Be an active, visible part of a small, close-knit and supportive team
• Spend time on programmes and community activity to stay connected to the young people and communities we serve

You’ll be embedded within our sports environment at Sobell Leisure Centre. You’ll regularly be close to delivery, impact and the energy of community sport.

Prisoners Abroad is a unique human rights and welfare charity providing advice and support to people affected by overseas imprisonment. We help British people during their incarceration, when they return to the UK and need resettlement services, and we also support their family throughout the trauma. It doesn’t matter to us the reasons people find themselves in need of our services – and we never judge. Our range of services make sure they survive, mentally and physically, so that they can face the future with hope.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join our fundraising and communications team in a varied role supporting our fundraising efforts to ensure an integrated approach to generating income and supporter stewardship. 

You will have some experience in an administrative or coordinator role, ideally within a fundraising or supporter‑focused environment, and a good understanding of how a busy team operates.

You will be the first point of contact for supporter queries and will lead on the processing and reconciliation of income. You will also support our major donor fundraising and provide essential administrative support to the wider fundraising team.

We are a friendly team who work collaboratively across income streams and support each other closely in an environment where no two days are the same. There are opportunities to get involved across the team and the wider organisation depending on your interests, and we invest in our staff’s professional development. This role would suit someone at an early stage in their fundraising career who is keen to build experience across a range of income streams in a supportive setting.

We offer 30 days’ annual leave a year and a 6.5% employer contributory pension as well as a range of enhanced leave and as much tea and coffee as you can drink! We deliver our services from our purpose built, light and airy office that is located a 3-minute walk from Finsbury Park Station (zone 2) which is 10 minutes from Oxford Circus and serviced by the Overground, Victoria & Piccadilly lines.
