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

• 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.

About You

We’re looking for someone who is ambitious, proactive, relationship-led and values-driven.

Essential

• Proven experience securing income from trusts, foundations and/or statutory bodies (including 5-figure or significant grants).
• Strong bid writing and grant reporting skills
• Excellent relationship management and communication skills
• Ability to manage multiple funding deadlines and priorities
• Strong organisational and project management skills
• Confidence working independently while collaborating closely with senior stakeholders

Desirable

• Experience across corporate fundraising, community fundraising, events or individual giving
• Experience implementing or working with a CRM
• Experience in a small or growing charity environment

Personal Qualities

• Entrepreneurial mindset. Excited by building systems, testing ideas and shaping strategy
• Comfortable being hands-on and “mucking in” as part of a small team

• A genuine passion for sport and belief in its power to change lives (a big plus)

Safeguarding & Values

• Access to Sports Project is committed to safeguarding children and young people.
  
• The successful candidate will be expected to share this commitment and will be required to undertake an enhanced DBS check.
• We are committed to equality, diversity and inclusion and welcome applications from all backgrounds.

Why Join Us?

• A rare opportunity to build and lead fundraising in a growing, respected sports charity
• Real influence, autonomy and trust from day one
• A passionate, supportive team rooted in community sport
• Hybrid working with a vibrant base at Sobell Leisure Centre
• The chance to help shape the future of grassroots sport in London

Our coordinators plan, arrange and deliver a programme of activities shaped around the needs of the young people, making the most of local opportunities, from heritage sites and outdoor adventures, to sports, arts and crafts, cooking, and team challenges.
