We are a professional Theatre Company who commission and stage award winning productions. We also work in partnership with a range of communities from all over Reading, to deliver projects that inspire excellence, teach new skills and provide pathways to a career in the arts. 

About our organisation

Music as Therapy International is looking for an ambitious, creative and relationship-focused Fundraising Manager to lead our fundraising as we enter an exciting new phase of our development.

Registered in 1998 and recently converted to a CIO, we are a small, established charity with a big ambition: To inspire, guide and champion caregivers to use music to strengthen care. Our work equips caregivers with practical skills and approaches that use music to improve the lives of people in vulnerable situations around the world.

We have entered a new strategic period focused on extending our reach, evolving our training and securing the future of music in care. In 2025 we operated with an income of c.£225k.  We are now looking for someone to build on this, bringing fundraising expertise, initiative and curiosity to help us turn our strategic ambitions into sustainable growth. 

About the role

As our Fundraising Manager, you will have a genuinely influential role in making that ambition possible. Working closely with our Director and wider team, you will take the lead on developing and delivering our fundraising strategy across trusts and foundations, major donors, regular giving, community fundraising, corporate partnerships and legacies.

This is not a role where you will be one small part of a large fundraising machine. You will have the opportunity to shape our approach, develop meaningful relationships with supporters and funders, identify new opportunities and turn our impact into compelling propositions that inspire people to give.

If you are an experienced fundraiser who enjoys having responsibility, building relationships and seeing the direct results of your work, we would like to hear from you.

OVERVIEW OF THE ROLE

The Fundraising Executive will provide essential operational support to the Fundraising Team, with primary responsibility for maintaining accurate, timely and useful information in our CRM system, Donorfy. The postholder will process and reconcile donations, maintain high-quality supporter records, coordinate prompt and personalised donor acknowledgements, and produce clear insights to support fundraising decisions across Helen Bamber Foundation and Asylum Aid.

We are looking for someone who is methodical, numerate and detail-focused, with the confidence to work across a CRM, banking and income records. They will combine excellent data discipline with warm donor care, helping colleagues use Donorfy consistently and sharing regular reports, trends and actionable insights with the Fundraising Team.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to begin or develop a career in charity fundraising operations. We welcome applicants with transferable experience in database or CRM administration, finance processing, customer or supporter care, reporting, or a detailoriented administrative role.

At Braintree Area Foodbank, we believe no one in our community should have to face hunger or hardship alone.
