Job description

This role is perfect for an experienced and passionate fundraiser specialising in individual giving and looking to be part of an ambitious organisation focused on improving animal welfare globally.

You will be working as part of the Marketing Team at animal welfare charity, Worldwide Veterinary Service (WVS), helping to raise funds to support the charities work, which in turn will mean more animals receive life-saving veterinary care.

As Individual Giving Manager, you will report to the Head of Marketing and take the lead on growing individual giving income. You will focus on retention to increase every supporter’s tenure and lifetime value while ensuring the right audiences are targeted to broaden support.

This is a new role and offers a great opportunity for the right candidate. There is some flexibility for hybrid working, but the role will require time at the Head Office in Cranborne, Dorset.

Other organisations may call this role Fundraising Manager, Individual Giving Lead, or Fundraising Lead.

About Us

At Worldwide Veterinary Service (WVS) we champion animal welfare around the world. We send vets where they are needed most, provide expert veterinary training in hard-to-reach places, and ship urgent aid supplies worldwide, every day of the year.

We deploy teams of vets and vet nurses, send equipment and supplies to help struggling organisations on the front line of animal welfare, and train vets at our international training centres in India, Thailand, Malawi and the Galápagos Islands.  We also work on strategic one health projects such as rabies elimination campaigns with Governments and NGOs all over the world. Our Mission Rabies project runs mass canine vaccination and community education in the world’s worst hotspots for the disease. Since the project began, over seven million dogs have been vaccinated against rabies and over 13 million children have been educated in rabies prevention, protecting the lives of people and animals.

Last year, WVS helped an animal every 14 seconds. We trained over 4,800 vets, deployed teams of vets all over the world, and sent over 1,700 parcels of veterinary supplies to 261 charities in 71 countries.

  • Manage the Fundraising and Admin Assistant, who will support you in developing campaigns and communicating with supporters.

Desired Skills & Experience
