Could you be our Fundraising and Communications Officer? 

Would you like to help those affected by disasters in the UK, when it matters most? Make a big difference within our small team as a Fundraising and Communications Officer.

If you’re an excellent communicator with strong research, project management and relationship-building skills, then we’d love to hear from you! 

When a national emergency arises, we act fast to raise funds for those impacted to help with their physical, psychological, and practical needs. Our first appeal, the Coronavirus Appeal raised £100 million for those affected by the pandemic.

Outside of emergencies, we work closely with survivors of past disasters, influence government policies, and help to drive positive change in the response and resilience landscape. 

The role

We are looking for a dynamic and creative Fundraising and Communications Officer who can help us to make a difference to people’s lives when national emergencies arise in the UK. That could be a flood, fire, act of terror or tragic accident - but whatever it is, you’ll be playing a vital supporting role in helping those affected to recover and rebuild their lives.

Working in to the Head of Fundraising (HoF) and Communications colleagues, you’ll help to implement our fundraising strategy, which encompasses relationships with corporate and major donors, and Trusts and Foundations, as well as public fundraising initiatives.

During UK disasters you’ll support our nationwide public-facing fundraising appeals to meet the needs of those affected. Outside of appeals you’ll help to build strong relationships with supporters, and deliver engaging campaigns and events across a range of channels.
