The Hunger Project UK Fundraising and Campaigns Coordinator
Are you looking for a role that really makes a difference helping to empower women and men to end their own hunger and poverty?
About The Hunger Project UK
The Hunger Project UK is a small, mission-driven charity and UK fundraising partner of The Hunger Project — a global movement founded in 1977 with more than 40 years of evidence that ending hunger is possible. Working across 13 programme countries in rural Africa, South Asia and Latin America, The Hunger Project pioneers sustainable, grassroots, women-centred strategies, believing that people living in hunger are themselves the key to ending it.
We are a lean, consultant-based team with an ambitious three-year strategy. We work collaboratively, we work with purpose, and we care about the quality of everything that carries our name.
The role
We are looking for an experienced Fundraising and Campaigns Coordinator — with at least five years in a fundraising role within the charity sector — to join our small team in the second half of 2026. This is a hands-on delivery role: you will be the person who owns campaigns end to end, builds the newsletters, schedules the posts, writes the copy and gets things live.
You will work within a clear strategic direction set by the senior team, but you will own everything from there — developing the angle and narrative, writing the copy, submitting the application, building the promotional plan across all channels, and closing it out with donor reporting and thanks. We want someone who takes a steer and runs with it, and who brings genuine creative and fundraising intelligence to how the work gets done.
This is a part-time, flexible consultancy engagement. We work to a variable monthly arrangement — hours flex with the needs of the organisation, averaging 30–40 hours per month, with busier periods during campaigns.
What you will do
Fundraising campaigns
- End-to-end ownership of Big Give and matched fundraising campaigns across all three annual rounds — from developing the angle and narrative through to application, asset creation, public-facing campaign, social content and donor impact follow-up
- Supporting funding applications and proposals with compelling, well-researched copy
- Managing and maintaining content and access across multiple fundraising platforms
Communications and content
- Newsletters and campaign emails via Mailchimp, built to brief and on brand
- Social media content creation and scheduling across LinkedIn, Instagram and Facebook, using Canva and Later
- Short-form video editing for Reels and social content
- Website content updates and maintenance in WordPress
- Brand consistency across all channels and materials, applying THP guidelines independently
- Liaison with THP global communications teams who hold brand collateral
Supporter experience
- Donor journey content in Beacon CRM, supporting the supporter communications flow
- Continuous improvement of supporter-facing content and touchpoints
- Simple monthly reporting on comms and campaign performance
What we are looking for
You are an experienced fundraising and campaigns professional who is genuinely energised by getting things done. You understand how donors think, you write well, and you can hold a campaign from first conversation to final thank-you without being chased. You are tools-confident and comfortable with working independently.
Essential
- Solid experience of at least 5 years in a fundraising and/or campaigns role in the charity sector
- Fundraising literacy — you understand what a donor journey is for, how matched fundraising works, and how to write copy that moves people to give
- Strong writing skills — clear, purposeful, on-brand; able to adapt tone across audiences
- Hands-on proficiency with Mailchimp, Canva and social media scheduling tools such as Later
- WordPress experience — content updates and basic maintenance
- Comfortable working in a small, collaborative organisation without a large support structure
- Self-starter: able to work from a strategic steer and own delivery end to end without day-to-day supervision
- Genuinely comfortable with variable hours
Desirable
- Experience of international development or women-focused organisations
- Experience with Big Give campaigns or similar matched fundraising
- CRM experience, particularly Beacon
- Short-form video editing for socials
Terms of engagement
- Consultancy basis or fixed term contract, with a view to extension
- Approximately 30–40 hours per month on average; hours vary with organisational need and will be higher during campaign periods
- Fully remote, UK based; occasional in-person meetings in London. Applications are accepted only from candidates with the right to work in the UK.
- £1,200-£2,000 per month, to be agreed on appointment
- Reports to CEO; day-to-day direction from our Operations and Relationships Consultant
