For over 100 years, we have been the central fundraiser and grant maker for maritime welfare. As a truly independent charity, we always put seafarer welfare first.

We’re looking for someone who genuinely cares about people, someone who lights up at the idea of looking after supporters and understands just how important thoughtful donor care is to meaningful fundraising. If you’re enthusiastic, detail‑driven, and love building relationships, you’ll feel right at home with us.

As our Fundraising Officer, you’ll play a vital role in keeping our fundraising engine running smoothly. This isn’t a marketing job, this is real, hands‑on fundraising.

This is a brilliant opportunity to grow, learn, and take meaningful steps forward in your fundraising career, surrounded by people who are just as dedicated and driven as you are.

If you’re ready to bring your passion, energy, and commitment to a role where every interaction matters, we’d love to hear from you.

You'll be joining a diverse, friendly, committed team of about 20 staff. We work on a hybrid basis, with a minimum of 3 days per week in the office. There are regular organisation-wide staff meetings at the office to ensure opportunities for people to get to know each other face-to-face, plus smaller departmental team meetings, and cross-organisational working groups.

If you are a whizz with Excel and adept at getting the most from complex databases, but also a great communicator and administrator (confident responding to many varied queries, super organised and passionate about process improvement), we’d love to hear from you. 

About Us

The Society for Endocrinology is a UK charity and membership organisation that brings together scientists, clinicians, and nurses who work with hormones, to improve lives. Hormones matter; they control almost every function in the body, and when things go wrong, they cause some of the most common - and some of the rarest - health conditions.

We empower healthcare professionals and researchers to stay at the cutting edge of science and patient care. We also support other national and international endocrine organisations (our clients) to deliver their own impactful work.

As a medium-sized charity with a friendly, supportive and flexible culture, we work collaboratively to make a big difference and build a strong global endocrine community.
