Culture: Flexible, supportive, able to work with autonomy

About the charity

Established in 2009 by a group of parents, Dravet Syndrome UK (DSUK) supports over 2,000 patients, carers and siblings across almost 600 families living with Dravet Syndrome, a rare, lifelong form of epilepsy. They do this through their three-prong approach; supporting families, providing professional education, and funding research.

This is the perfect time to join as they're coming out of a period of transformational growth, when they are about to refresh their strategy following the successful delivery of their first five-year strategy, and have grown both their team and income significantly.

About the role

The Head of Fundraising will lead on high value asks to help further diversify, strengthen and grow DSUK's income base. This role will be both strategic and hands-on. You'll develop and implement the fundraising strategy, setting realistic targets and delivering on them. You will also represent the charity externally by building relationships with high value funders and developing the case for support.

This is a standalone fundraising role, with support from colleagues across the team. You will line manage the Team Administrator, with the potential to grow the team down the line as the fundraising function develops.

About you

This role will suit a confident relationship-builder and a creative thinker, comfortable working autonomously in a small remote team.

We're looking for someone with:

• A proven track record in high value fundraising, across multiple income streams
• Demonstrable success in building new corporate relationships, including securing multi-year partnerships
• Proven success in cultivating major donors, including securing multi-year gifts.
• Experience of developing and managing a pipeline of trust and foundation funding, including writing high-quality applications and managing funder relationships

If you're driven by making a difference in the lives of people impacted by a serious and rare neurological condition, please send a copy of your profile or CV to Ellen Drummond at Charity People as the first step.
