Fixed Term Contract (Maternity Cover)
Full-Time (37 hrs) LC2 SCP 29 – 32 - £39,862 to £42,839
About Crewe Town Council
Crewe Town Council was formed in 2013 as the result of a referendum, with a role to provide a strong voice for Crewe. The parish of Crewe is broken into six wards made up of a diverse community. The Council is made up of twenty elected members (Town Councillors) and a small team of officers work to deliver local services and activities including events.
About Events at Crewe Town Council
Crewe is a home to an ever growing hive of activity when it comes to events and culture and Crewe Town Council is proud to be a part of this.
Crewe Town Council has a rich history of hosting outstanding events including a regular monthly feature market, school holiday programmes, a soap box derby event, music events, Crewe Day Festival, Remembrance Sunday Service and Parade, an annual Christmas Lights Switch On and so much more!
Events make a huge contribution to our local community and economy. They provide recreational opportunities for residents and contribute to strong, resilient communities by providing the chance for people to have an active role in the community through volunteering or participation in event activities. At their biggest, events give Crewe a raised profile, boosting inward investment and visits to the town.
The town enjoys a thriving and engaged community which is keen to express its individuality as well as welcome ideas for contemporary events from around the country. Crewe Town Council continually builds on these elements to develop a culture of active delivery of events in partnership with the community, agencies and businesses that contribute to achieving our ambition to make Crewe the place to Live, Work & Enjoy.
Crewe is in a time of change and opportunity, with redevelopment of the town centre underway and new exciting cultural projects and initiatives emerging. Local residents and organisations alike are invigorated and passionate about the role of events in the town, both now and for its future.
About the role
This role is maternity cover and will be offered on a fixed term contract.
The role will report directly in to the Town Clerk and be responsible for the Events Officer, contractors and volunteers. You will work closely with other officers including Communications, Public Services, Community, Heritage and Support Officer.

Our mission is simple and vital: to help people live well with dementia, and to ensure that no one faces it alone.
We are entering an exciting new phase. After several years without a dedicated fundraising department, we are ready to rebuild and strengthen our income base, reconnect with the community we serve, and create sustainable funding for the future. This role will be central to that transformation, shaping how we tell our story, engage supporters, and grow our impact.
We’re looking for a Head of Fundraising, someone who can design, develop and deliver our fundraising stratergy. Someone who can innovate and who can combine stratergy, can lean in and has energy to connect with people, and who sees potential everywhere. If you’re motivated by the challenge of shaping something lasting and meaningful, this role offers the chance to make a visible difference, both to the charity and to the lives of people living with dementia.
Reporting directly to the CEO, you will have both the freedom and responsibility to build a thriving, sustainable fundraising function, securing income initially from trusts and foundations and then corporates, philanthropists, individuals, and community supporters.

 - Build and manage a sustainable pipeline of prospects, ensuring timely applications and stewardship.
 - Line-manage and mentor the newly appointed Trust Fundraiser, supporting their development and success.
 
Individual Giving and Appeals
- Refresh and strengthen Dementia Concern’s case for support, ensuring a consistent, powerful message across all audiences.
 - Design and deliver the charity’s first major appeals — including digital campaigns, local community drives, and postal appeals — to attract and retain individual donors.
 - Develop engaging donor journeys and opportunities for people to give regularly, locally, and meaningfully.
 
Community and Partnership Development
- Reconnect Dementia Concern with its local community through relationship-building, events, and partnerships.
 - Represent the charity externally with warmth and confidence, growing our network of local supporters, volunteers, and champions.
 - Work closely with the CEO and Trustees to build mutually beneficial partnerships with local businesses, groups, and influencers.
 - Oversee the charity’s website and digital presence, ensuring our communications are clear, inspiring, and supporter focussed.
 - Lead on campaigns and public relations that raise awareness of dementia and the charity’s impact in West London.
 
About you:
You will have experience in:
- Trust Fundraising and at least one of the following: corporate partnerships, individual giving, or community fundraising.
 - Proven ability to develop and deliver successful fundraising strategies.
 - Excellent written and verbal communication skills, able to craft compelling cases for support and inspire others.
 - A collaborative, ‘hands-on’ approach comfortable working in a small, dedicated team.
