Corporate Fundraising Manager Jobs
Prisoners Abroad is a unique human rights and welfare charity providing advice and support to people affected by overseas imprisonment. We help British people during their incarceration, when they return to the UK and need resettlement services, and we also support their family throughout the trauma. It doesn’t matter to us the reasons people find themselves in need of our services – and we never judge. Our range of services make sure they survive, mentally and physically, so that they can face the future with hope.
We are looking for an experienced fundraising and communications manager to join our successful fundraising team and support the sustainable growth of our individual income streams (IG, major donor and legacy), manage our events programme and lead on our external communications work to fund our life-saving services. Line managing two fundraisers, you will bring your experience across these areas gained within a charity fundraising and communications team to support income generation.
We are a friendly team of 7 who work collaboratively across income streams and are extremely supportive of each other in an environment where no two days are the same.
Here’s what our team say about working at Prisoners Abroad:
“The fundraising team at Prisoners Abroad is a brilliant place to work. Everyone is here for the same reason – because we care deeply about the cause and want to ensure the organisation has enough money to keep delivering its life-saving services. Raising money from trusts and foundations is challenging, stimulating and rewarding.”
“Being a fundraiser for Prisoners Abroad and campaigning for such a unique and moving cause is really rewarding. The work is varied and interesting, and it is lovely to be a part of both the fundraising team and the wider organisation, as we get along and work well together.”
“Fundraising at Prisoners Abroad is an incredibly rewarding job, and it’s an absolute pleasure to work in such a caring, supportive and welcoming team.”
We offer enhanced staff benefits including 30 days’ annual leave a year (pro rata) in addition to bank holidays and a 6.5% employer contributory pension (minimum employee contribution of 1.5%). We deliver our services from our purpose-built office that is located a 3-minute walk from Finsbury Park Station (zone 2) which is 10 minutes from Oxford Circus and serviced by the Thameslink, Victoria & Piccadilly lines.

We are looking for someone to secure and steward long-term, multi-faceted relationships with companies and brands to achieve annual Corporate Partnership income targets and growth as well as securing future funding that meet Battersea’s strategic objectives.
About us
At Battersea, we aim to never turn away a dog or cat in need of help. We give each one lots of love and expert care and get to know their characters and quirks so we can find them a new home that’s just right for them.
All the knowledge we gather in our centres helps us to improve the lives of the animals we’ll never meet, through our work with other rescue organisations and charities. We also help people make informed choices when getting a pet, we provide training and welfare advice, and we campaign for changes in the law when we see that dogs and cats or their owners deserve better.
Join us and help us be here for every dog and cat, wherever they are, for as long as they need us.
Income Generation department
Battersea’s multiple award-winning Income Generation department raises around 60% of the Charity’s total income. Working with colleagues across the organisation, we provide members of the public and organisations with opportunities to engage with Battersea and to support our work. Through continued investment, net fundraising income has risen from just £100,000 in 2010 to £13m in 2021, and we will continue to grow our income to make sure Battersea can be here for every cat and dog now and in the future.
Philanthropy, Partnerships and Commercial teams work to engage philanthropists and partners to support Battersea’s current and future work; helping them to understand the dramatic difference their donations can make to the work of our charity. Within Philanthropy and Partnerships sits the Corporate Partnerships team. We explore and cultivate new and existing partnerships with companies to drive income that supports the care of our animals through sponsorship, cause related marketing and aligning strategic objectives.
What we can offer you
We offer our employees a wide range of benefits to reward them for the value that they bring to Battersea, to support them in their work, to help improve their health and wellbeing, and maintain a healthy work-life balance. These include:
28 days of annual leave (plus 8 days paid public holidays) per year
Generous pension contributions – up to 10% employer contribution
Free healthcare cash plan, where you can claim for a range of treatment including dental (£100), optical (£100), physiotherapy, chiropody and acupuncture (£325) every year
Annual interest-free season ticket loans
Discounted gym memberships and cycle to work schemes
Life insurance
Support for your professional and career development, including access to digital and in-person training programmes, a wide range of tools and resources, leadership and management training, mentoring and much more.
Hybrid working policy
We operate a hybrid working model, with our office-based staff splitting their time between site based and home working. We believe this enables our office-based staff to maintain the benefits of home working, while allowing for collaboration and interaction with our animal-facing staff and maintaining a connection to our cause. As such, you’ll be expected to work in our Battersea office for at least 50% of your working week.
Equality, diversity and inclusion at Battersea
At Battersea, we are committed to providing equality of opportunity, and developing and supporting a diverse workforce and inclusive culture in all aspects of our organisation. We aim to ensure that this pledge, reinforced by our values, is embedded in our day-to-day working practices and our work together.
By hearing from and valuing different experiences, perspectives and contributions, we know we can provide the best expert care for every dog and cat who needs us. We particularly welcome applications from people with disabilities and from members of minority ethnic communities, who we know are currently under-represented at Battersea.
As a Disability Confident Committed employer, we're happy to discuss any support or personalisation you may need during your application and/or interview process as part of our workplace adjustments.
Closing date: 7th January 2024
Interview date(s): 16th & 17th January 2024
