DIGITAL FUNDRAISING MANAGER

Are you an experienced digital fundraiser with a flair for communication?

Are you motivated by a love of humanity that knows no borders?

Choose Love/ Help Refugees is looking for a Digital Fundraising Manager to join our small and collaborative team in London. 

You will have substantial digital fundraising or digital marketing experience and be passionate about digital innovation, as well as about the rights of those who have been forced to flee their homes.  You love creative communications, data, and raising funds to support our incredible humanitarian partners. 

This is an exciting opportunity to become part of an organisation that has had digital at its heart since the beginning. Started as little more than a hashtag to organise donations in response to the refugee crisis in 2015, in less than five years we have grown to be a movement that has worked with over 35,000 volunteers and provided aid to over a million people.

An incredible number of people have become part of the Help Refugees movement, but the scale of the refugee crisis is even bigger. The Digital Fundraising Manager will play a key role in taking our response to the next level, recruiting new online supporters and deepening the engagement of existing ones. 

You will work with the Director of Communications and Campaigns and others across the organisation to help develop and deliver our digital fundraising strategy, rolling it out across social, our websites, email and marrying up with offline events too.

ABOUT HELP REFUGEES

In August 2015, a group of friends started using the hashtag #helprefugees to organise a van full of donations. Within a week, we had raised £56,000 and were soon receiving 7,000 items every day. 

We are now one of the largest providers of grassroots humanitarian aid in Europe, and currently support over 120 projects across Europe, the Middle East and US-Mexican border.

Each of these projects is powered by ordinary people who are stepping up where governments are failing to provide even the most basic services. From those keeping rescue boats afloat, to the volunteers distributing tents and hot food, to the brave souls working under the desert sun to place water along the Mexican border.

We also support those working to build a brighter future — the teachers working with students to build prosthetic limbs, the therapists helping heal the invisible scars of war and the lawyers working to unite families. 

Our ‘Choose Love’ brand has been worn by Oprah, Julia Roberts, Phoebe Waller-Bridge and thousands more across the world. Our ‘buy nothing’ pop-up stores in London, New York and LA have raised more than four million and gained headlines in New York Times, The Guardian and CNN. Our founders have addressed audiences including Barack Obama, Sheryl Sandberg and the Hollywood Foreign Press Association.

We are delighted to work one of the longest standing charities in the UK, as they launch their new 8 year fundraising strategy this February.

They support thousands of young people of all backgrounds to better their lives, as well as providing a range of crucial support to seafarers. They hired a new Director of Fundraising a year ago, who has been instrumental in ‘rebooting’ the fundraising unit, building a great team, and is now on the look out for a talented and ambitious Corporate / Partnerships Fundraiser.

About the role

• The current portfolio is approx. 200k of various maritime and youth style partnerships (30% of the role approx.)

• The new biz target is 275k for the next year. There is a strong pipeline and lots of conversations to pick up on (70% of the role approx.)

• Huge opportunity to shape the role, working closely with the DoF&C on developing the overall strategy

• Work closely with marketing, major donor, trusts and other teams to maximise charity-wide income opportunities

• The long term plan is to hire an officer that this role would ultimately manage

What we're looking for

• A Corporate Partnership Manager (or equivalent) looking for a new challenge OR an exec/officer with several years experience looking to step up!

• New biz experience is a must, from prospect research through to bringing on partnerships

• A self starter who wants the responsibility of a corporate function

• A creative & collaborate thinker – strong interdepartmental relationships key
