If you want a fundraising role where you can see the direct impact of every partnership, pitch and campaign this could be the right move.
About the role:
We’re looking for a Fundraising Officer to join Aspire’s small, agile and supportive Fundraising & Communications team. You’ll be an all‑round fundraiser, working across corporate partnerships, trusts and foundations, and community, events and individual giving. You’ll help grow and diversify our voluntary income so that more people across Oxfordshire and the Thames Valley can move out of homelessness, poverty and long‑term unemployment into secure work and housing.
This is a hands‑on role with real variety: one week you might be crafting a pitch for a new corporate partner, the next you could be pulling together a trust report, planning a community fundraising event or writing supporter communications. You’ll have room to shape the role around your strengths while learning from experienced colleagues.
About Aspire:
Aspire is a multi‑award‑winning employment charity and social enterprise. We support people who have faced serious barriers – including homelessness, offending histories, substance misuse, mental ill health and long‑term unemployment – to build confidence, skills and ultimately secure housing and work. In the last year alone, we supported over 1,800 people experiencing disadvantage to move closer to employment and housing and achieve lasting change.
We are guided by our values: Ambitious, Supportive, Participatory, Inspiring, Reliable and Enterprising. You will see these lived out day to day – in how we work with participants, partners and each other.
What you’ll be doing:
- Helping to grow and steward corporate partnerships across Oxfordshire and the Thames Valley, from prospect research and pitches to volunteering and sponsorship.
- Supporting a strong pipeline of trust and foundation applications and reports, telling Aspire’s story with clarity and evidence.
- Leading on community fundraising and events, building relationships with local groups, schools, faith communities, businesses and individual fundraisers.
- Maintaining and developing individual giving through engaging, well‑timed communications.
- Using our CRM (Salesforce) to keep supporter data, pipelines and reporting accurate and up to date.
- Playing a full part in a collaborative team where ideas are welcomed and everyone pitches in at busy times.
About you:
You don’t need to tick every box, but you will bring:
- Experience in at least one of: corporate fundraising, trusts and foundations, community/events or individual giving, plus enthusiasm to grow across all three.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to adapt your tone for different audiences.
- Confidence building and managing relationships with supporters, customers or partners.
- Good organisational skills and comfort working to deadlines and targets.
- A genuine commitment to tackling homelessness, poverty and disadvantage, and alignment with Aspire’s values.
Experience with Salesforce or AI tools would be helpful, but we’re more interested in your mindset: curious, proactive, organised and keen to learn.
What we offer:
- A 4‑day working week (0.8 FTE).
- Salary: £29,234 - £35,305 per annum (FTE), depending on experience (0.8 = £23,387 - £28,244) .
- Hybrid / remote‑first working, with at least two in‑person team days per month in Oxford and occasional events and meetings.
- The chance to shape and grow a varied fundraising role in a small, supportive team.
- A values‑driven culture and the opportunity to see the tangible impact of your work.

Who we are

We are a fast-growing agency with a strong reputation for delivering outstanding results. Our team of experienced fundraisers know exactly what it’s like to be on the front line and put their heart and soul into every event.
About the Role
As a Fundraising Group Moderator, you’ll manage Facebook groups of up to 10,000 challenge participants, providing exceptional supporter care and helping participants raise five‑ and six‑figure sums for some of the biggest names in the charity sector.
This role is ideal for experienced fundraisers looking for flexible freelance work or an additional income stream. You’ll work remotely, using your own laptop and WiFi, and bring your personality, empathy and initiative to every interaction.
You must be able to begin moderation at 9am (or earlier), wrap up by 9pm, and maintain our sub‑three‑hour response time.
Key Responsibilities
-
Represent the charity’s voice, uphold brand guidelines and act as the charity representative
-

Identify, report, escalate and signpost all safeguarding concerns

Workload & Peak Periods
Our challenge calendar has natural peaks, and moderators must be prepared for increased activity during September-November and January-March. These months see higher participant numbers and more concurrent events, meaning more posts, questions and supporter interactions. In addition to these seasonal surges, the first and last day of every month are consistently the busiest, as participants start and complete their challenge.
We maintain a flexible, supportive team culture, and to keep this fairness and flexibility in place, moderators must be willing to work occasional bank holidays and be available on the first or last day of each month, when group activity is at its highest.
Working Pattern
Moderation takes place between 9am and 9pm, Monday to Sunday.
Rather than working in one continuous block, you’ll complete your hours in short check-ins across the day to maintain coverage and meet response time targets.
Each account is allocated a set number of ‘active moderation hours’ per day (e.g. 2-3 hours), which are spread across multiple sessions. For example, 3 hours may be split into 5-6 check-ins throughout the day.
You must be able to:
-
Start moderation from 9am (or earlier)

Monitor activity throughout the day
-
Complete a final check before 9pm and be present to sign off at 9pm
