This role will offer the right candidate the opportunity to think creatively about how to widen our donor base, increasing engagement in the charity’s work from music lovers right across the U.K.

Applying your exceptional leadership skills to deliver through a high performing team and working collaboratively with others across the organisation to set campaigns, drive digital growth and demonstrate the positive impact the charity delivers to those who support us.

Job Title: Head of Fundraising and Membership
Contract Type: Permanent
Closing Date: 29th May 2022
Interview Date: w/c 6th June 2022
Salary: up to £42,000 commensurate with experience
Based at Tyland Barn, Maidstone with opportunity for home working.
Globally and nationally wildlife is in steep decline. We appear to be reaching critical tipping points around the loss of biodiversity as well as around climate change, both being interlinked. Human society cannot prosper without wildlife and healthy ecosystems.
Kent’s wildlife needs to be restored to much higher levels. We can no longer allow common things to become rare. We can only do this by restoring large-scale habitat from degraded land. Doing this will contribute to solving global problems. But we won’t be able to do this unless we publicly aspire to a higher level of impact and show that we can deliver this.
The Job: This decade is critical for our planet - we have to, and can, take action! As Head of Fundraising, you will play a strategic role in the creation and implementation of a new fundraising strategy that has the capability of scaling up non-commercial fundraising for the organisation, working with a broad range of income sources including membership and an exciting developing Capital Appeal
Reporting into our new dynamic, passionate and ambitious Director you will be an integral part of Kent Wildlife Trust’s newly formed Fundraising, Marketing and Commercial team. With an inspiring and ground breaking organisational strategy, this is an exciting opportunity to significantly impact our work whilst raising vital income, promoting our vision, and leading on a culture change to a project focused approach.
You: Nature's role in preventing climate breakdown cannot be underestimated and we need you to raise our profile and ability to fund our work. As Head of Fundraising, you will be an experienced, senior fundraising/commercial development professional with good experience across the whole range of income sources including individual giving, community, HNWI and bid development. Ideally with charity sector experience, but certainly with a keen interest in our cause and passion for communications for good.
As Head of Fundraising and Membership you will be highly adept at engaging a broad range of stakeholders in order to secure their financial support. You’ll be an effective, passionate and thoughtful communicator. Leading a small and professional team, you will provide support, challenge, and development to the colleagues for whom you have management responsibility and promote effective collaboration in all that you do. We’re looking for a confident, positive, strategic self-starter, who is good at looking for solutions, a great-people person and brilliant planner.
