We have an exciting opportunity for two highly motivated and enthusiastic candidates to join the Foothold fundraising & communications team working remotely from home.

We’re ideally looking for one person to focus on developing our individual giving and legacy income, and a second person to lead on corporate and community/challenge events income. This can be flexible dependant on experience and interests.

You’ll be joining a team of 5 fundraising and marketing professionals working proactively to raise income and awareness of Foothold across the engineering sector.

We have around 42,000 wonderful fundraising supporters who you’ll work alongside to develop long term relationships, whilst proactively developing new relationships and partnerships to benefit Foothold.

These are newly created roles and there is the opportunity to truly make your mark. To find out more about Foothold and the roles download the candidate information pack.

About Foothold:

We may not know much about engineering, but we do know engineers. We’ve been supporting IET (Institution of Engineering and Technology) members and their families since 1890.

We understand people and we understand how life can be at work and at home. It’s unpredictable, complex, demanding. Amidst the busyness of our lives we often forget that being well is just as important as doing well.

More of us are feeling stressed in our jobs. One in four of us will have a mental health problem this year. More of us are living longer. Our health needs are growing yet we have a shortage of carers. Rising costs are forcing living standards down. And we’re facing a loneliness epidemic.

We all need to start taking better care of one another, because we all need a little support from time to time. Even engineers.

We’re here so engineers and their families never need to face life’s challenges without support. We want engineers across the world to feel supported in all aspects of their lives and to feel that it’s OK to ask for that support. We want them to be healthy and able to stand on their own two feet. We want them to feel looked after but also empowered by their professional community.

Funded by engineers, for engineers, Foothold is here for engineers and the people who matter to them most. Whatever the problem, big or small.

Do you have your fingers on the business pulse of the East Midlands? Do you have an excellent network of corporate contacts who would love to give back to their local hospitals after a year unlike any other?

If so, you could be just the person we are looking for.
