Community Fundraising Officer (South)
Full time - 35 hours per week
Location – Hybrid Working with a minimum of one day a week working from Head Office
Join our friendly team
We have an exciting opportunity for a Community Fundraising Officer to join our team, covering the South region. Based within easy reach of our London Head Office, you’ll play a vital role in generating income and building lasting relationships to support families in need.
Our charity
The Sick Children’s Trust is the charity that provides a welcoming ‘Home from Home’ where families with a sick child in hospital can stay. But we’re more than bricks and mortar, our friendly, caring staff are there to support families when they really need it.
Hospital can be a lonely and scary place for anyone, but especially a child. Providing around 3,500 families a year with somewhere to stay together just minutes from the hospital means that they can be by their sick child’s side and have one less thing to worry about.
The Role
This is a varied and rewarding community fundraising role, focused on building strong relationships and delivering income growth across the South.
You will engage and support individuals, schools, community groups and local businesses to fundraise, delivering excellent stewardship and supporter care.
You’ll recruit participants for both ‘run your own’ and third-party events, while developing long-term relationships including with families connected to the charity.
Working collaboratively with House Teams and colleagues, you’ll help increase awareness, manage supporter activity, track income, and maximise opportunities through partnerships and communications.
You’ll also represent the charity at events and within the community.
This role requires a proactive and organised approach, with the ability to manage multiple projects and meet income targets.
About you
We’re looking for someone who is passionate about community fundraising and motivated by building meaningful relationships.
You will have strong interpersonal and communication skills. You will equally be as comfortable supporting families who stay with us who want to fundraise, as you are presenting to a room full of students, or potential volunteers.
You have good organisational skills and are comfortable working to objectives and targets. You are able to work with a level of autonomy and innovation to develop your fundraising portfolio and to increase our profile particularly in the areas close to our houses.
Ultimately this is a great role for anyone who loves community fundraising and understands that no two days are the same.
An enhanced DBS check for this role is required.
This is a great opportunity and we are reviewing applications as we receive them, so early application is advised. We may close this post earlier than advertised.
The recruitment pack will provide you with more information about the role. If this role sounds like something you will excel in, we’d love to hear from you.
To apply please submit your CV with a covering letter demonstrating how you meet the criteria set out in the job description and person specification

We’re looking for an enthusiastic, proactive community and events fundraiser with great project management and relationship building skills. You’ll be responsible for leading on a varied portfolio of fundraising activity, identifying new supporters, stewarding existing supporters and delivering community fundraising products and campaigns.
Events and Community Fundraising is an established income stream at Breast Cancer UK but we know there is potential to grow, so we’re investing in proactively developing the area. This role is an opportunity for a talented fundraiser - with at least three years of experience working in Challenge Events and/or Community Fundraising and a strong track record of delivering results – to take a lead on these income streams and build something amazing. You’ll need a strong understanding of how to deliver excellent supporter experiences, and the ability to spot trends and opportunities aligned with our audiences and our brand, and capitalise on them.
You will have opportunities to expand your skills and expertise and really own your area, as part of a small but mighty fundraising team. If you are highly motivated, collaborative, love building relationships and working as part of a friendly and supportive team, we want to hear from you!
What do we do?
In the UK today, around 59,000 women and 420 men are diagnosed with breast cancer every year. 1 in 7 women will develop the disease at some point in their lives.
But we believe in a future where fewer people have to face this devastating disease - because we know that at least 30% of breast cancer cases are preventable.
By making changes to modifiable lifestyle and environmental risk factors, we can drive cases down. Our focus on prevention is unique - we are shining a light on the changes we can make at an individual and societal level to prevent breast cancer.
To achieve this, we:
- Deliver an education programme - empowering individuals with trustworthy, science-backed information and guidance to help them understand and reduce their risk.
- Fund research into the causes of breast cancer —while significant progress has been made in improving survival rates through new treatments, we are dedicated to ensuring fewer people ever receive a diagnosis.
- Run campaigns - to increase public understanding of the risk factors for breast cancer, such as Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals, and to influence policy-makers and industry, to protect consumers and provide safer alternatives.
Not all breast cancers can be avoided, but we need a united movement for prevention, to tackle this devastating disease head on. We believe that everyone in society should be able to do something about breast cancer before it happens.
Why join us?
- To be part of a fantastic supportive team.
- Work for an organisation that values a positive and inclusive culture.
- Fully remote working.
- Competitive salary of £32,106 - £38,460 PA (depending on experience)
- 29.5 Days Annual Leave Plus Bank Holidays.
- Option for full time colleagues to compress hours and work a 9 day fortnight.
