This post will help us to further develop, drive and implement our Fundraising Strategy and Plan, which will supplement this income in order to better serve unpaid carers across Hertfordshire.

The post holder will supplement this with a programme of work including organising and supporting community fundraising events, working with local donors such as for Charity of the Year partnerships, and growing our approach to corporate fundraising. The post-holder will have the opportunity to shape this programme based on their experience and the strengths of the charity.

We are looking for a self-motivated and tenacious individual, who has a demonstrable record of raising income and profile at a local level and who has a passion for building quality long-term relationships with a variety of different types of donor.

A good standard of IT Skills is required, including use of databases, Microsoft office and the internet. Our principle database is Salesforce, though experience of this is not essential. The role will require travel across Hertfordshire, so you will need the ability to travel independently, have access to a car and have a full valid driving license.
