We’re looking for a proactive individual with community fundraising and volunteer management experience to join us as a Regional Community Fundraiser and help us maximise our local fundraising activities.

A home is a fundamental human need, as ssential as education or healthcare. Yet millions of people across Britain struggle on a daily basis with homelessness, bad housing conditions, soaring rents, discrimination and the threat of eviction. So, we are striving for change — with individuals, in communities, across society – and leading the way to a safe home. We need ambitious, best-in-class individuals who are passionate about our cause to join us at this exciting time. This is your chance to play a part in the fundamental change we are striving to achieve.

Part of our hugely successful Income Generation division, Shelter’s Community Fundraising team is a new and, currently, small team but with big plans to grow our numbers to have Regional Fundraisers in 12 cities across England and Scotland. Community Fundraising is a key part of Shelter’s long-term fundraising strategy and investment is being made available to fund it. We have recently appointed a new Head of Community Fundraising and are now seeking to expand our team of Regional Fundraisers – it’s a great time to join us.

At Shelter we are committed to tackling systematic inequalities and currently we are looking to increase the diversity within our Fundraising team. We would particularly welcome applications from anyone with a BAME background or considers themselves to have a disability.

About the role
Implementing a new community fundraising strategy in Dundee and the surrounding areas is just one of the challenges we’ll expect you to rise to in this high profile role. Essentially, you’ll be responsible for raising the profile of the organisation and attracting new loyal and regular supporters. That means shaping and developing your geographical area and local community to establish a tangible relationship with Shelter and its work. It also means providing a high standard of stewardship to add value to current and new Shelter fundraisers and volunteers. Working in the best interests of the charity by contributing to wider fundraising teams' goals whenever possible will be important too. Put simply, you’ll do everything you can to generate more income and attract new long-term supporters.

About you
To succeed, you’ll need a proven relevant background, including working within community fundraising, volunteer management and a demonstrable track record of meeting and exceeding financial targets. We’ll also be looking for experience of reporting using Raisers Edge or a similar database. Customer focused, commercially aware and results-driven, you have a creative and innovative approach and will be able to start and build relationships and to effectively tell the story of why people should support Shelter’s fight to end homelessness and bad housing. What’s more, you’re not afraid to challenge the status quo and try new ideas when appropriate. Proficiency using Microsoft Office applications is also required, as is a full UK driving licence.

Benefits
We offer a wide range of benefits, including 30 days of annual leave, enhanced family friendly policies, pension and interest free travel loans. Our employees also have access to a tenancy deposit loan, payroll giving, cycle to work scheme and an employee assistance programme.

Shelter Scotland helps over half a million people every year struggling with bad housing or homelessness through our advice, support and legal services. And we campaign to make sure that, one day, no one will have to turn to us for help.

To find out more about the role and the benefits of working for Shelter Scotland please visit our website. Apply to be part of our team and be the change you want to see in society.

Safeguarding is everyone's business. Shelter is committed to protecting the health, wellbeing and human rights of those we support, and enabling them to live free from harm, abuse and neglect. All our staff will be expected to observe professional standards of behaviour and conduct their work in line with our Safeguarding Policies.

Shelter promotes equality, diversity and inclusion in our workplace. We make employment decisions by matching business needs with skills and experience of candidates, irrespective of age, disability (including hidden disabilities), gender identity or gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, or sexual orientation. We also encourage applications from people, who have been homeless or have been at risk of homelessness. We are facing diverse problems, so need diverse people to tackle them.

We are happy to talk about flexible working, personal growth, and to promote a workplace where you can be yourself and achieve success based only on your merit.

Shelter does not accept unsolicited CVs from external recruitment agencies nor accept the fees associated with them.

This is a really exciting time to join Girlguiding. With nearly half a million members we are the largest charity dedicated to girls and young women in the UK, and one of the largest and leading youth charities. We are on a mission to amplify the voices of girls and young women, so they can champion change in their own lives and the wider world; to build strong partnerships that can increase our reach and impact; and to increase the support we offer our 100,000 amazing adult volunteers who deliver incredible experiences to young people across the UK every week. We have recently agreed our 2020+ strategy and begun a process of significant change: transforming the organisation so it can meet the challenges of the future by putting young people and volunteers at the heart of our organisation.

2020 has been a challenging one for Girlguiding units, and we know that some will be very concerned about having the money they need to carry on into 2021.  We’ve secured funding from the Pear’s Foundation and Children In Need to offer grants to some units.  Some of the funding must be spent by units by the end of March.  We’re urgently recruiting two finance roles to support  the grant making to the units that need them the most. Later in the year we will be upgrading our electronic payment processes and these two roles will support the finance team during the testing and roll out.

We’re looking for someone with experience of managing a small grants scheme to establish the process for making the grants.  This includes one scheme open to units for application and one that directly targets units in areas of deprivation.  You’ll work with stakeholders across Girlguiding to make sure the money gets out to units where it can most benefit girls and young women, ensuring that all the grant criteria are met.

Girlguiding values the differences that a diverse workforce brings and is committed to inclusivity, and to employing and supporting a diverse workforce. Girlguiding is proud to be part of the Stonewall Diversity Champions programme, a member of the Business Disability Forum, and a member of Time to Change. While Girlguiding’s young members may be women only, our staff team is mixed gender. We welcome applicants from all backgrounds.

We are committed to supporting our staff to achieve a good work-life balance and offer flexible working options wherever we reasonably can. Girlguiding is a COVID secure employer, providing support for all employees during the current pandemic. All staff are required to carry out our online health and safety training and complete a DSE risk assessment to ensure we can provide the support you require.

It is important that you submit all of the above documents with your CV, including the declaration form, supporting statement and diversity questionnaire. We will consider only those applications that include these completed documents.

We ask that you submit your CV and supporting information as soon as possible as we reserve the right to close vacancies at any time, when we have received sufficient applications. 

Interviews will be held remotely during the pandemic.
