Halton Haven Hospice has an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic, proactive and inventive part-time Community Fundraiser to join our team.

The right candidate will be an experienced fundraiser who can hit the ground running.  We’re looking for someone who can make a real difference to the people and community that we support.  They will have a demonstrable track record of achieving financial and non-financial objectives and be committed to continuing professional development; with a view to being able to identify and manage any fundraising opportunity that comes their way.  Our job is to raise vital income to support free hospice care and to ensure that it is available not only now but in the future.

This is a public facing role working in a fast-paced and creative environment; often juggling deadlines.  It demands the ability to prioritise workloads and to work both independently and as part of a team.  The successful candidate will work with volunteers, local corporates, schools and the wider community to steward supporters in their fundraising activity.  They will develop ongoing and new partnerships and engage in Hospice-led events and campaigns too.

No two days will be the same but the work will be varied, busy and hugely rewarding.  You will have the opportunity to make your mark and to develop new ideas and fundraising innovations.
