About Cambridge Past, Present & Future

Cambridge Past, Present & Future is a local charity that protects the beauty of Cambridge and its environment.

We care for the green setting of Cambridge and its most valuable landscapes, and we are working to enhance and connect them for nature and people.

We inspire people of all ages to get outdoors and help them to enjoy, learn about and get involved with their local environment, heritage and culture.

We help to protect, celebrate and improve the important built heritage of the Cambridge area.

We own and care for Wandlebury Country Park, Coton Countryside Reserve, Bourn Windmill, Hinxton Watermill, and Cambridge Leper Chapel; we also manage Grantchester Meadows. We deliver a busy schools and public events programme. We were founded in 1928 to preserve the beauty of the historic city of Cambridge and its countryside setting and we work hard to influence the planning and development of the greater Cambridge area.

We are a team of 17 staff (7 full- and 10 part-time/seasonal) supported by over 100 volunteers and assisted by field teachers, advisors, and service providers.

The Opportunity

This is an exciting time to join our charity: Cambridge is changing rapidly, and we are working hard to tackle issues such as the loss of nature, climate change and access to green space. We have inspiring new projects to expand habitats and green spaces on the Gog Magog Hills, to create a new wetland at our Coton Reserve, to plant trees and woodlands and to save one of Cambridge’s oldest buildings. Right now, the work of our charity is needed more than ever before, and we need the financial resources to be able to step up and make even more of a difference.

This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced fundraiser to help us increase our income from mid-level and major donors, trusts and foundations, and legacies.

Your knowledge of fundraising best practice will ensure that we deliver an excellent donor experience.

You will be an effective worker with an eye for detail who can use your experience to fulfil the administrative and reporting requirements of the funds you are helping to raise.

You will work alongside our Membership & Communications Manager and have some support from our Administrative Assistant. You will also be supported in your work by the CEO, trustees, volunteers, and external contractors.

You will be part of a friendly and committed management team where you can make a difference, and your work will have an impact.
