Help Transform the Future of Rivers Across the Bristol Avon

This is a rare opportunity to build something that will have a lasting impact.

Over the past several years, Bristol Avon Rivers Trust (BART) has become one of the UK's fastest-growing Rivers Trusts, securing investment to restore rivers, reconnect habitats, reduce flooding and engage communities across the Bristol Avon catchment.

Now we're ready for the next stage of our journey.

We are looking for an ambitious and experienced fundraising leader to build and lead an entirely new area of our organisation - developing sustainable voluntary income that enables us to do more than project funding alone can achieve.

This is an opportunity to create something from the ground up. You will shape our fundraising strategy, diversify our income, build long-term relationships with supporters and partners, and unlock investment that will directly improve rivers, wildlife and communities across our region.

If you're motivated by building successful fundraising programmes with genuine environmental impact, we'd love to hear from you.

 

About Bristol Avon Rivers Trust

Founded in 2012, Bristol Avon Rivers Trust works across the Bristol Avon catchment to restore rivers for wildlife, people and the local economy.

Everything we do is guided by the best available science and a catchment based approach, working across entire catchments to improve biodiversity, climate resilience, water quality and flood resilience.

Since 2023, the Trust has experienced significant growth. We now employ around 20 staff, deliver approximately £1.3 million of projects annually, and work alongside local partnerships, farmers, landowners, communities, local authorities, businesses and government agencies.

Our ambition over the next five years is even greater.

To deliver our Strategy 2025–2030, we need to complement our strong track record in project funding with a sustainable programme of unrestricted and philanthropic income.

About the Role

Help shape the future Bristol Avon Rivers Trust (BART).

This is much more than a fundraising role.

You'll have the opportunity to design and lead BART's long-term fundraising strategy, creating entirely new income streams that will support restoration of rivers, education, community engagement, project development and organisational resilience.

Our immediate priority is to diversify our income beyond project grants by growing:

• Individual giving
• Philanthropic and charitable foundation support
• Corporate partnerships
• Major donors
• Legacy giving
• Unrestricted income opportunities

While these priorities have been identified strategically, we are looking for someone with the experience and creativity to refine the approach, test new ideas and build a sustainable fundraising programme for the future.

 

Success during your first 12 months will include:

• Developing and launching BART's fundraising strategy
• Building a compelling case for supporting the Trust’s work
• Establishing a strong pipeline of unrestricted income opportunities
• Growing relationships and excellent communications with supporters and funders
• Embedding fundraising across the organisation
• Creating clear KPIs and reporting frameworks with the CEO and Trustees

 

This is a highly strategic position reporting directly to the Chief Executive.

The successful candidate will work closely with an engaged Leadership Team and supportive Board of Trustees, who recognise fundraising as a strategic priority for the organisation's future growth.

Our CEO has extensive experience securing major grant funding and developing partnerships, and will work closely alongside you to help establish and grow this new function.

As with any investment in fundraising, success will be measured against mutually agreed objectives and long-term growth rather than immediate financial return. We recognise that developing sustainable fundraising takes time, and we are committed to supporting the successful candidate to build a lasting programme.

 

What You'll Be Doing

You will:

• Develop and implement BART's Fundraising and Philanthropy Strategy.
• Diversify unrestricted income from individuals, trusts and foundations, philanthropy, corporate partnerships, legacies and other voluntary income streams.
• Develop a compelling organisational Case for Support aligned to BART's Five-Year Strategy.
• Work with the CEO and Leadership Team to establish fundraising priorities and KPIs.
• Lead fundraising campaigns, communications, and supporter engagement initiatives.
• Manage and develop BART's supporter journey using our Beacon CRM system.
• Work closely with our Trust Administrator, who provides administrative support to the organisation, including support for CRM administration and fundraising processes.
• Coordinate fundraising activity across the Trust and ensure opportunities are maximised.
• Build strong relationships with major donors, funders and strategic partners.
• Ensure compliance with the Fundraising Regulator's Code of Fundraising Practice.
• Report regularly to the Leadership Team and Board of Trustees.

 

Why This Role is Different

This is an opportunity to build a fundraising programme with exceptional foundations already in place.

You will benefit from:

• A highly respected and growing environmental charity.
• Strong project delivery with proven environmental impact.
• An experienced CEO with a successful track record of securing significant funding and developing strategic partnerships.
• A supportive Board committed to growing fundraising.
• A database managed through Beacon CRM.
• A recognised and trusted regional brand with significant opportunities for growth.

You'll have genuine freedom to shape the future direction of fundraising at BART.

About You

We're looking for someone who is ambitious, entrepreneurial and excited by creating something new.

You'll ideally have:

• At least five years' experience in fundraising or philanthropy.
• Experience developing fundraising strategies and delivering income growth.
• Knowledge of trusts, foundations, philanthropy, individual giving or corporate fundraising.
• Excellent relationship-building and influencing skills.
• Strong planning and project management skills.
• Experience using CRM systems (Beacon experience welcomed but not essential).
• Excellent written communication, storytelling and bid-writing skills.
• The ability to translate complex environmental work into compelling fundraising propositions.
• A passion for rivers and their recovery and creating meaningful impact.

 

Benefits

• 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays and Christmas closure.
• Holiday increases with length of service.
• 9% employer pension contribution.
• Life Assurance.
• Hybrid and flexible working.
• A supportive and collaborative team culture.
• Professional development opportunities.

 

Why Join BART?

Healthy rivers are fundamental to tackling climate change, biodiversity loss, flood resilience and community wellbeing.

Joining BART means becoming part of a passionate, ambitious organisation that delivers measurable environmental change every day.

Most importantly, this role gives you the opportunity to build something with lasting impact.

The fundraising programme you create will enable thousands more people to connect with and restore rivers across the Bristol Avon catchment for generations to come.

Equality, Diversity & Inclusion

Bristol Avon Rivers Trust is committed to building an inclusive and diverse workplace where everyone feels valued, respected and supported.

We actively welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and communities, particularly those underrepresented within the environmental sector.

Individual Giving Legacy Fundraiser 

£31,906 pa (FTE)

Use your creativity, drive and relationship-building skills to grow income that helps Bluebell Wood be there for every baby, child and young person who needs us.

Join us as our Individual Giving & Legacy Fundraiser and be part of a team that is building something special -growing sustainable income, striving for excellence, and delivering results that make a real difference.

This is a role for someone who wants to take ownership, see results, and be part of a team working together to achieve more — more support, more reach, more impact.

We’re ambitious, collaborative and always looking for better ways to connect with supporters. We test, learn, improve and deliver because the income we generate is what enables us to provide vital care.

Your work will help drive the income that ensures every family can access the care they need, when and where they need it.

About us:
At Bluebell Wood, our vision is for every baby, child and young person with a life-limiting condition to access specialist palliative care, wherever and whenever they need it. Every role here plays a part in making that happen.
Our support is wide-ranging and tailored to every family. From symptom management and short breaks to counselling, sibling support, music therapy, home visits and end-of-life care, we provide expert care when and where it matters most.
We support families across South Yorkshire, North Nottinghamshire, North Derbyshire and parts of North Lincolnshire. To keep our doors open, we need to raise £6.7m every year — with only around 17% of our income coming from government sources. That’s why this role matters.

The role:
In this role, you’ll lead the development of individual giving and legacy income — attracting new supporters, deepening relationships, building strong pipelines and creating journeys that grow long-term value and loyalty.
Using data, insight and creativity, you’ll shape and deliver campaigns, strengthen regular giving and build awareness of legacy giving in ways that feel personal, relevant and impactful - driving the income that ensures more children and families can access the care they need.

What you’ll do

Strategic Planning

• Develop and implement a growth strategy for Regular Giving, including acquisition, retention, upgrade pathways, and mid-level donor development.
• Lead on the development and effective delivery of legacy messaging across channels, ensuring consistent and inspiring communication that builds awareness and drives pledges.
• Support strategic planning for Trusts & Grants, In Memory Giving, and Legacy awareness, ensuring alignment with overall fundraising goals.

Campaign & Product Delivery

• Lead the creation and delivery of Regular Giving and mid-level donor products, campaigns, and donor journeys.
• Develop and promote legacy giving initiatives, including Make a Will Month, seasonal appeals, and messaging that builds a pipeline of legacy pledges and gifts.
• Work with external suppliers (e.g. creative agencies, mailing houses) and internal teams to deliver high-quality assets and campaigns.

Collaboration & Support

• Work closely with Marketing, Supporter Engagement, Commercial Insights and Finance teams to ensure integrated delivery and maximise supporter value and retention.
• Support fundraising events and initiatives as needed.
• Respond to supporter enquiries via mail, email, and phone, providing excellent customer service.
• Work positively and proactively with our volunteer supporters.
• Manage relationships with external consultants for Trusts & Grants and Legacy fundraising, oversee canvassing agents and ensuring all activity aligns with the hospice’s fundraising strategy and values.

What you’ll bring

• Experience in individual giving, legacy fundraising, donor development or a similar supporter-focused fundraising role.
• A creative approach to campaigns, communications and supporter journeys.
• Confidence using insight, data and performance measures to improve results and grow income.
• Strong relationship-building skills and a positive, proactive approach to supporter engagement.
• Experience of working with agencies, suppliers or external partners to deliver high-quality activity.
• A values-led mindset, with the initiative to take ownership, work collaboratively and make things happen.

Why join Bluebell Wood?

• Your work will directly help children and families access expert care and support.
• You’ll have the freedom to bring ideas to life in a creative, collaborative and purpose-driven team.
• You’ll be part of a values-led organisation where individuality is welcomed and development is encouraged.

What we offer:

• In return, we can offer you a fantastic working environment and the following benefits:
• 33 days’ holiday entitlement, including bank holidays, with the option to buy and sell leave
• Employee assistance programme - including mental health care and out of hours GP access
• A commitment to your professional development
• Matched pension scheme of 5% of salary
• Bluebell Wood enhanced maternity and paternity pay (unrelated to NHS conditions)
• Enhanced night shift pay.
• Free parking on main site
• Subsidised lunch

• If you’re ready to use your skills to make a lasting difference for children and families, we’d love to hear from you.

Fawcett is recruiting a Fundraising Manager to own day-to-day fundraising delivery and help strengthen how fundraising works across the organisation. This is a manager-level role with real responsibility: bringing structure, judgement and follow-through to live fundraising activity, leading trusts and foundations as a core technical area, and helping develop wider fundraising opportunities over time.

You would work closely with our Head of Income and Organisational Development, who leads the strategic side of this work, while this role acts as its operational counterpart. We are looking for someone with strong fundraising experience, especially in trusts and foundations, excellent bid and report writing skills, and the ability to operate autonomously in a small organisation.

We know that women and people from marginalised backgrounds are less likely to apply unless they meet every requirement. If this role feels like a strong match for your skills and approach, we would encourage you to apply.

Do you believe in the power of the arts to build community and transform lives? At Pimlico Musical Foundation, we work with a diverse community, providing a broad range of opportunities for both children and adults, and free musical education to local children, many of whom face considerable challenges. We bring people together, provide opportunities for young talent, and support the local community's engagement with the arts. We achieve this through various programmes, in partnership with local schools and organisations such as Westminster School, Oxford University, Opera Holland Park, the Rodolfus Foundation, and Future Academies.

We are seeking an experienced and driven fundraiser to take strategic ownership of our income generation across all income streams, leading the next phase of our growth. As Head of Fundraising, you will own and develop the fundraising strategy while continuing to deliver hands-on where needed, supported by an engaged board and CEO. Most of all, we are seeking someone who wants to make a difference, contributing to a community and improving access to the arts for everyone, regardless of their background.
