About the PKD Charity

Founded in 2000, we’re the first and only UK charity solely dedicated to improving the lives of an estimated 70,000 individuals and their families affected by polycystic kidney disease (PKD) in the UK.

PKD is a range of life-threatening inherited conditions that can cause kidney failure and affect other organs in the body such as the liver, brain, heart and bowels. Most people with PKD live with an uncertain prognosis, intermittent pain and infections, and then have to undergo life-saving dialysis or transplant in their 50s. A few babies have a rare form of PKD which results in death during pregnancy or shortly after birth; the surviving children often have to have either a kidney or liver transplant before the age of 10.

We provide reliable, accredited information, advice and personalised support. We raise awareness of the burden of PKD, both clinical and psychosocial. We fund research aimed at understanding more about PKD and the discovery of therapies that will improve quality and longevity of life.

Whilst a great achievement, equivalent gains have not been made in the quality of education, meaning young children are still experiencing poor learning outcomes at a critical stage of their development.

Our mission is to support Ghana in achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 4.2 – universal access to quality early childhood education. In partnership with the Ghanaian Government and two other INGOs, we are on the cusp of implementing a programme to roll out our teacher training on a national scale. To support this, we are recruiting a Senior Institutional and Trusts Manager to work closely with our Director of Fundraising and Communications in the delivery of our fundraising strategy, building long-term relationships with institutional and trust funders and inspiring them to support our work.

About you:

We are seeking an experienced institutional fundraiser, ideally with experience in trust fundraising and a passion for the power of education, to join our team and develop our institutional and larger trust fundraising income. You will have demonstrable experience and success in securing funding from institutional funders including bilateral and multilateral. Experience in partnership working with other INGOs would be beneficial, although not essential. Line management experience is also desirable, as this role will manage a small team.

We offer a supportive and collaborative team culture. The role is completely home-based, with the cost of occasional travel to team and donor meetings covered. This role has a lot of responsibility and an opportunity to experience new things. We hope you’re excited by that.

We plan to interview on 12th December, so if you are interested please contact our recruitment partners at Peridot Partners to discuss this role in detail.
