Individual Giving Fundraiser

£30,963 per year

35 hours per week

London/Hybrid Working

You can live anywhere in England or Wales and work at home if that suits you best. Some travel to Scope offices and services will be expected but you definitely do not have to live in London.

We’re a strong community of disabled and non-disabled people with a shared vision of equality.

We have an exciting opportunity to join Scope in this new role of Individual Giving Fundraiser.  Working remotely with occasional travel to London, or in the office more regularly if you prefer, you’ll be responsible for managing a portfolio of Individual Giving campaigns from inception through to evaluation.  As employers we are flexible both in terms of location and working patterns if that helps you with life outside of work.

The role

As part of the Individual Giving Team you’ll be responsible for managing a variety of fundraising campaigns to acquire and retain supporters.  We currently use a mixture of email, print and telephone as our main channels, but plan to diversify into more digital, and you may also help on some of our face to face activity too.

You’ll have your own campaigns to manage, which means responsibility for working collaboratively with colleagues across Scope to get great stories, develop strong copy and visuals, and liaise with external parties where relevant to ensure things are delivered on time and on budget. You’ll work closely with the database team to ensure timely and accurate data selections with guidance from the IG Lead, and be happy reporting on the results and taking learnings from your campaigns for next time.

About you

You’ll be passionate about fundraising, and take great pride in creating and delivering successful campaigns across a range of media channels.  You’ll have experience of working on direct mail, email and digital campaigns already, and be comfortable managing your campaign expenditure budgets and reporting on income.

You’ll like working with both creative and data, and have experience of briefing both of these things.  You’ll also have a great eye for detail and accuracy, and be able to undertake some simple campaign analysis yourself - so excel skills are a must.

It's a busy job, so you will be proactive, and able to manage a varied workload across multiple projects.  You’ll be great at building relationships, and happy to communicate with a range of internal and external people from supporters and colleagues to external agencies.

We ask you to show an appreciation of Scope’s values and our ambition of everyday equality for disabled people.

If you want to make a difference and become a Disability Gamechanger, we'd love to hear from you. Apply Today!

Close date: 10/07/2022

Disabled candidates

Equality and inclusion are at the heart of our mission, and we are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace.

We work hard to ensure that we are making exciting opportunities available to all, and everyone feels valued, heard and respected so that we continue to build a high performance, high engagement culture.

We particularly welcome applications from disabled people, and guarantee interviews to disabled applicants who meet the minimum job criteria. Please let us know in your application if you are applying under the Guaranteed Interview Scheme.

If you would prefer an application form or need any of the job information in a different format such as large print or braille. Please contact us via our website.

We encourage applications from underrepresented groups including people in BAME and LGBTQ+ communities
