Excellent people skills are a must. In this role you will meet all sorts of people from many walks of life, so you will need to be confident and a good communicator.

This is a thoroughly rewarding role for the right person. You might already come from a fundraising background or you may have all of the transferrable skills needed to make this your move into the charity sector. Whichever, if this is you, then we’d love to hear from you!
