About Oxfam

Oxfam Ireland is one of 20 independent affiliates working as one in more than 90 countries. We are an independent, secular and not-for-profit organisation.

We share a common vision, common philosophies, and, to a large extent, common working practices. We are united by our common values and identity and share the same passion and commitment. We have joined forces as an international confederation because we believe we will achieve greater impact by working together in collaboration with others, and as an interdependent and truly global network of organisations.

Oxfam Ireland has been supported by people across the island of Ireland for over 60 years.

We have shops across the island of Ireland, offices in Belfast and Dublin, and 1,200 volunteers who are delivering real change to the lives of people affected by poverty.

People like the child who wants to go to school; the mother who needs healthcare for her baby; the farmer who sees climate change wipe out his crops and livestock; the women whose voices need to be heard in the decision-making process; the young people whose lives could be transformed with business training, the family that has lost everything in a natural disaster.

We respond to humanitarian emergencies around the world – wherever they happen. We help people to help themselves and build a brighter future through our long-term projects. We campaign nationally and internationally on issues ranging from the arms trade to women’s rights, inequality and climate change.

Last year, Oxfam Ireland reached over 8 million people; affecting positive change in their lives and contributed to Oxfam International’s work that reached over 19.5 million people.

Our teams in Dublin and Belfast collaborate to ensure our all-island approach is successful.

Dublin is a global, entrepreneurial city with a bright future. Ireland’s GDP growth in 2018 was a remarkable 6.7%, the fastest in Europe and in 2019 the country had the EU’s second-fastest growing economy.

Oxfam Ireland is located in Dublin’s historic docklands, home to the city’s thriving financial and tech industries. Dublin continues to do well in rankings of culture and competitiveness. Global companies continue to base their European HQs in Dublin and the local start-up scene is buzzing.

About the Candidate

We seek an enthusiastic and innovative fundraising and marketing leader who has experience of creating and delivering innovative plans for income generation and who will empower the fundraising and marketing teams to achieve ambitious fundraising, philanthropy and marketing programmes.

As Director of Fundraising and Marketing you will report to the CEO as part of the organisational senior leadership team. You will also work closely with the Board and chair the internal fundraising steering committee.

To deliver in this role you will require an extensive track record of developing and implementing strategic plans to achieve income growth across sustainable fundraising channels to generate funds.

This is an exciting opportunity for a proactive, successful fundraising specialist with a growth mindset and a customer-centric approach, and who will be responsible for driving a high-performance culture of accountability in teams.

You will bring significant lengthy experience of planning, executing and evaluating fundraising programmes, recommending investment plans and overseeing budgets, KPIs and ensuring decision-making based on data and analytics.

You will be an expert networker and relationship builder, and eager to build the organisation’s brand across the island of Ireland. You will contribute at a strategic level to the global Oxfam confederation and enjoy peer relationships across the 20 affiliates and many countries and regions

Purpose of the role

Does this sound like you?

We are looking for a dynamic, initiative-driven and superbly organised team player to help us out with managing the administration side of our swiftly growing charity. Food poverty is a bigger issue than ever, and we’re determined to do our part to help end it. As part of our team, you’ll be confident enough to deal with a huge range of people at every level, articulate and diplomatic and with a naturally positive outlook.

This is a very varied role, so you’ll be naturally flexible in your approach and happy to help out with anything from moving chairs to manning our stand at a country fair. As you’ll also be managing our day to day financial administration too, you’ll need a strong eye for detail and a process-driven brain. Finally, it’s imperative that you’re intuitive and a quick learner; confident to ask questions until you’ve understood something but then happy to go away and do it yourself. 

As this is a home-based job you will be highly organised with a head for creating order, innovative and a real self-starter. We’re looking for someone who’ll bring new and fresh ideas on how we can develop and improve our processes, with the wherewithal to put those improvements into action. We’re looking for an organisational dynamo; someone that can take an idea, go away and come back with a decisive plan.

We’d love it if you came from a charity background, but your skills and personality are the most important thing. What’s crucial is that you’ve had at least five years’ experience in a senior level administrative role and are strong in the whole Microsoft Office suite – Outlook, Teams, Word, Excel and PowerPoint. If you’ve worked with Xero, that’s a big advantage, and familiarity with Salesforce, Mailchimp and WordPress would also be a bonus, but not essential. 

Who we are
The Country Food Trust is a national charity with rural roots that produces meals and donates them to people in need. We recently reached our target of one million meals in our first five years and are driving ahead with an ambitious plan for our next five.

The Dame Kelly Holmes Trust is UK youth sports charity which supports 11-25-year-olds who are harder to engage in both education and in the community. We use the power of world class athletes to train and mentor young people to achieve their potential through personal, social and emotional development programmes. In partnerships nationally and locally, our programmes increase young people’s self-esteem, confidence and resilience which enables them to move into employment, become leaders within their communities, achieve in education and to improve their wellbeing through sport and physical activity.

Over the last ten years we’ve helped more than 2,300 into employment as a result of our flagship Get on Track programme and in total our programmes have generated more than £23 million in social value since 2012 London Games.
