Beaumond House Hospice Care provides personalised care for you and your family, when every moment matters and aims to deliver outstanding hospice care, enabling our local communities to live well and die well.

We are seeking to appoint an experienced individual to the position of Trusts & Foundations Manager. The hospice is a registered charity that is committed to providing supportive palliative care to patients with life limiting or terminal illnesses and their families living in Newark & district, since 1987.

Beaumond House operates over an approximate radius of 15 miles from Newark. Each year we provide care for over 500 patients and support to their families, caring for around 150 patients at any one time.

The post will generate increasing levels of essential revenue and capital income for the hospice as we look to grow the offering to the local communities we serve.

You will be an energetic and creative individual, bringing Trust Fundraising knowledge to the team. You will be responsible for securing income from active and dormant audiences, focusing on donors and growing income from Trusts and Foundations.
