Fighting for the best possible treatment, services and care for anyone affected by breast cancer.
About the role

In this busy and exciting supporter-facing role, you’ll provide stewardship to our brilliant fundraisers organising events from bake sales and balls to tractor runs and sponsored walks. And, alongside the other community fundraiser executives, you’ll be the first point of contact for supporters, playing a key role in the smooth day to day running of the programme.
Through excellent relationship management, you’ll inspire our supporters to see through their fundraising plans, raise as much as possible and continue to support the charity in a way that’s right for them.

About you
You’re a brilliant communicator and love working with others. You thrive in a busy environment, bringing a proactive attitude to everything you do. You look for ways to add value and push beyond the expected.
Having worked in a customer or supporter facing role before, you’re naturally committed to providing exceptional stewardship. Engaging with our supporters will energise you, whether that’s speaking to them over the phone, hosting a cheque presentation or attending their events.
You’re organised and can prioritise your work well. You pick up processes quickly and have excellent administrative skills that you’ve gained in a professional working environment.
It’s great if you’ve worked in a charity before, and having community fundraising experience is a bonus. But it’s your passion for fundraising and making a difference that’s important – if this sounds like you, we can’t wait to hear from you.

Project Background
Come and join our award-winning place-based volunteering programme that works with residents living across Hackney and the City of London.
You will be based out in the community - the programme is based at GP practices - to engage, support and enable local residents and patients to deliver local services for themselves, to meet local needs. We support residents to come together, to share their skills and experience for the benefit of each other, to deliver local groups and activities such as a book group, film club, exercise classes or cooking group. Residents from diverse backgrounds and demographics attend these activities together and make new connections, building strong local communities, all working together to make their area a better place to live. People, many of whom are isolated across all ages, and who have difficult life circumstances, are brought together, providing each other with mutual support and encouragement to develop new skills and pursue life goals, and to feel better able to voice their concerns to services.
You will be joining a nationally recognised project - having won an award from the Royal Society of Public Health in November 2024 - to support residents to fulfil their personal goals, make connections with others, and design activities and services that meet local needs. You will also be supporting people to improve their mental and physical health through signposting them to appropriate services and encouraging them to talk to their GP if they have concerns; and will be working in partnership with GP practice staff to co-create volunteer roles to make the practice more efficient and a better place to visit.
