SarcoidosisUK is a successful small, high-growth charity that is looking for someone to lead its marketing and fundraising functions. We’ve been growing at between 30 and 50% a year for the last five years and need someone to help continue our growth.

Sarcoidosis is a rare disease. That means we have a small but passionate audience who care deeply about the work we do. Your role is to build relationships with people, either personally or through smart systems and strategies, with the aim of converting a one-off fundraiser into a regular fundraiser, converting a single donation to us being a “favourite charity”. It is about taking each interaction someone has with us and using it to build that relationship that makes us special to them.

Sarcoidosis’s rarity means it has been ignored; however, it impacts around 1 million people worldwide, so a cure is desperately needed. The disease predominately impacts the lungs but can also affect the nerves, skin, heart and joints. For 30% it becomes chronic. Patients with sarcoidosis in two or more organs have a 40% mortality rate.

Currently there isn’t even a treatment – doctors can solely provide medicine for the symptoms. They can do nothing to stop the disease. We’re here to change that by funding ground-breaking research subject to successful marketing and fundraising.

Each piece of research gets us closer to a cure. We’re going to keep going until we have a cure for everyone. Until then we provide support and information to those affected.

The Role

This is an eclectic role that suits someone who enjoys the challenge of multiple projects, of a wide variety, and of rising to the opportunity of learning new skills to achieve their goals.

Responsible for all aspects of our marketing for fundraising. You will be directly responsible for all marketing efforts and will be measured against funds brought in.

• Part of a small team of three people (including yourself). This means you can enjoy seeing the direct impact of your work and will have a varied and interesting role. 
• Working from the charity’s office at: China Works, 100 Black Prince Road, SE1 7SJ. Between Vauxhall & Waterloo.
• Our main marketing outlets are direct marketing, email newsletters, the website and responding to inbound fundraising inquiries (emails, phone calls & letters). We are also looking for creative marketing fundraising ideas.
• Your role would include managing:
  • Fundraising direct marketing and e-campaigns to all donors.
  • Monthly membership letters.
  • Campaigns to clinicians.
  • Our $100,000 google AdWords account - writing all adverts, managing keyword campaigns and measuring output.
  • Managing our Facebook advertising campaigns.
  • Event/ Fundraiser Event support – identifying and managing event places, providing assistance for volunteer fundraisers, creating custom named t-shirts, creating and sending out fundraising packs.
  • Managing our online shop.
  • Building relationships with those affected and major donors (via direct marketing, online and phone).
  • Identifying, applying to, and managing relationships with grant giving organisations.
  • Managing and writing the fundraising pages of the website.
  • Managing our database of donors and contacts.
  • Writing and distributing press releases.
  • Collating monthly statistics, creating a presentation and presenting to the board of trustees.
  • You will be participating in trustee meetings and therefore have a high-level understanding of the charity. You will have the opportunity to participate in the conversation to present your views & opinions on almost all aspects of running the charity.

Skills

It is important to us that the successful candidate is:

• Extremely comfortable with IT. We leverage technology to be more effective. You should be happy to try new technological solutions. We expect you to be already familiar with MS Windows and MS Office.
• Able to build rapport and relationships with people quickly over email and phone.
• A self-starter and effective problem solver.
• Very strong written English.

You do not need to have any specific fundraising or charity experience. You are not expected to have any knowledge of Sarcoidosis.

Benefits

• Bonus scheme
• Flexible working hours
• Casual dress

Contract: Full-time, permanent

Salary: £23,000 to £26,000. With a bonus scheme worth up to 20% of salary.

To Apply: Send your CV and a cover letter to [email protected] explaining why you would like to work for SarcoidosisUK. The closing date for this role is 10th September.

Are you a bright and enthusiastic Fundraising professional with a passion for dogs? Dogs Trust is looking to appoint a Trust and Foundations Officer to work in their London Head Office on a 10 month maternity cover contract.

The successful candidates will apply their energy and enthusiasm and make an enormous difference to dogs in need, using their first-class skills to prepare inspiring and original applications in pursuit of trusts and foundation gifts up to and including the six-figure level. 

Our mission is to bring about the day when all dogs can enjoy a happy life, free from the threat of unnecessary destruction. As the largest dog-welfare organisation in the UK, we rehabilitate and rehome over 14,000 stray and abandoned dogs a year at our 21 rehoming centres. Dogs Trust Worldwide is an affiliate charity to Dogs Trust whose aim is to improve the welfare of dogs around the world and protect them from maltreatment, cruelty and suffering.

After a highly successful couple of years, the team is expanding, with the recent addition of two Team Manager roles which are also currently being advertised.  The new Trust and Foundations Officer and the Trust and Foundations Officer (maternity cover) role will join this enlarged team, working alongside existing Officers and reporting into one of the new Trust and Foundations Team Manager positions. Both teams will be based in London, with one team fundraising solely for Dogs Trust and other team focused mainly on securing funds for Dogs Trust Worldwide (but also for Dogs Trust to some degree).

You will have exceptional attention to detail and a strong aptitude for writing creative narrative that will ensure our applications stand out when being assessed. Ideally to be considered for a role focussed on fundraising for Dogs Trust Worldwide you will have a highly successful track-record of trust fundraising for international projects.

Along the way you’ll be encouraged to see Dogs Trust’s amazing work for yourself and visit our world class rehoming centres.  You’ll also enjoy spending time with donors and supporters who share our love of dogs. 

Perhaps best of all, being a Trusts and Foundations Officer at Dogs Trust means working in environment where staff can apply to bring their own dog to work after one year of continuous service - so there are always plenty of our four-legged friends around to keep us company in the office while we trust fundraise!

These posts will be based in Dogs Trust London Office. (Initially there will be flexibility around location of work including working from home; interim flexible arrangements will be discussed at interview stage)

First interviews will be held in the week commencing 30th August.
