About us:

The Pankhurst Trust brings together Manchester Women’s Aid and the Pankhurst Centre. We work together to ensure the story of the women who won the vote continues to inspire us all to challenge gender inequality, and to ensure that those suffering from domestic violence and abuse get the confidential help they need.

62 Nelson Street was the home of the Emmeline Pankhurst and her family and was the place where the first meeting of the Women’s Social and Political Union – the movement which became known as the Suffrages – took place. Saved from demolition by a grass roots campaign in the 1970s and 1980s, the Pankhurst Centre is now the only heritage site in the U.K. dedicated to telling the story of the Pankhurst family and the story of women’s fight for the right to vote.

Manchester Women’s Aid has over 40 years’ experience in providing vital services to survivors of domestic violence and abuse in Manchester, including refuge accommodation, outreach and education services, and specialist services for marginalised groups.

The Pankhurst Trust (Incorporating Manchester Women’s Aid) is a diverse organisation with c31% of our staff coming from BAME and c12% from LGBT communities. We span the generations with c11% of staff being aged 18-24 and c25% aged 55-64. 11% of staff identify as having a disability.

Our staff, volunteers and service users have taken time to reflect on who we are and what we do when we are at our best. This reflection showed that we can proudly claim to be: 

Courageous by challenging inequality, stepping forward and making change

Affirming by supporting and inspiring, paying attention to discover what matters

Generous by sharing our skills, creating energetic positive links, and thriving together

Rooted by being secure in our communities, participating and nurturing a sense of belonging

Do you want to work for an organisation that helps critically ill babies and children? Does the prospect of building a fundraising pipeline and charity reputation excite you? Are you a passionate and dedicated fundraiser looking to join an innovative, inclusive and committed team? This could be the role for you! We are supporting this life-saving organisation assisting them in their search for a Community Fundraiser in the North West.

This role presents a hugely exciting opportunity to develop and nurture a fundraising pipeline across the North West region. You will be well supported in your role, but have the autonomy to develop and grow relationships, and in doing so raise the reputation of this fantastic organisation.

Lockdown has brought a number of serious issues to the fore for society's most vulnerable; victims of domestic abuse and violence are at much greater risk at home with their abusers. In this brand-new fundraising role, you'll have the opportunity to make a significant impact on the lives of women and children experiencing domestic abuse from Black, Asian and minority ethnic backgrounds across Greater Manchester.

Initially a 12 month contract due to the current funding model, but the hope is very much that this post will open up opportunities for sustainable funding in order to extend and potentially become permanent.

This small, but mighty charity is committed to creating a safe space, providing culturally sensitive support, language assistance, and a voice and identity to BAME women facing violence in their lives. This is a new post, created to help the organisation diversify income streams and increase relationship-led fundraising from major donors, corporates and individuals.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a dynamic self-starter with exceptional interpersonal skills to bring new ideas, try new things and build new relationships. As this is the charity's first and sole Fundraiser, it is crucial that you can think strategically and deliver operationally. You'll work creatively and with autonomy to develop new initiatives, working closely with the senior leadership team to develop a sustainable fundraising strategy for the future.

To apply, we'd love to see the following skills, experience and attitudes on your CV:
* Impressive track-record of raising money from either individuals or corporates, regularly at four and, ideally, five figure level
* Strategic mind-set with the practical skills and desire to be a hands-on fundraiser
* Positive attitude and team player who brings out the best in those around them
