Who are we?

WRAP is a global environmental action NGO championing the shift towards a circular economy, fundamentally reshaping how we produce, consume, and manage resources. Our vision is a world transformed, in which Circular Living is commonplace. Where the systems that provide our everyday goods contribute to the world's prosperity and sustainability instead of reducing it.

WRAP is driving Circular Living through four key areas: accelerating the circular economy, future-proofing food, preventing problem plastics and transforming textiles. We catalyse action from policy makers, businesses, NGOs and citizens to make it happen.

We have offices in the UK, USA and Australia, and live projects in over 30 countries.

Join us at WRAP and you'll drive important change to make Circular Living the norm.

The role

As our Strategic Engagement Manager (Fundraising) you will have a core focus to secure new and additional funding streams from Trusts, Foundations and Multi-laterals, you’ll have the ability to put your initiative, organisational skills, and aspirational mindset to the test. This will be a genuine opportunity to make a huge impact and work with considerable freedom to initiate, develop and execute fundraising plans, and collaborate extensively with colleagues, subject matter experts, and external partners. You will act as a broker of ideas, proposals, relationships, and opportunities that further the growth and income targets of WRAP or contribute more directly to the delivery of strategically desirable projects in the UK and internationally.

Who are we looking for?

We’re looking for someone with the capability to identify opportunities to grow revenue streams from Trusts, Foundations, and Multi-laterals, but also the strategic and commercial mindset to convert and maximise these. You’ll be an experienced fundraising professional from within the non-profit/charity sector, but a sustainability sector background is not as important as the qualities we’re keenly looking for, which include:

• Experience of working within a charitable fundraising environment, working with philanthropic trusts, foundations, multi-lateral organisations and other funders.
• Evidence of successfully identifying, researching, and approaching potential funders, delivering compelling pitches and proposals, and securing income.
• Effective and efficient communicator, with the ability to translate scientific information into engaging and impactful presentations.
• Collaborative and patient in building relationships and working with colleagues and partners to a specified outcome
•  Positive mindset and the ability to identify, generate and develop opportunities and lead programmes of work

Ready to lead the way to circular living?

If you think you have what it takes but your experience looks different to what is advertised, please still apply. We welcome applications from everyone regardless of your age, race, gender, neurodiversity, ability, beliefs, sexuality, or personal preferences.

We want to help you be your best, so please contact us if you require any assistance or adjustments during the recruitment process.

About The Role

At the Royal British Legion, we believe every supporter deserves to feel truly valued.
