Fundraising Officer, Peterborough Cathedral — £32,000

Help write the next chapter for one of England's great cathedrals. No fundraising background? Bring your relationship-building skills, we'll teach you the rest.

Peterborough Cathedral is at a genuinely exciting turning point. We're delivering an ambitious Strategic Review and Masterplan, and moving fundraising away from reactive, crisis-driven appeals towards something more strategic and sustainable, built on real relationships, better systems and disciplined stewardship. This role sits right at the heart of that shift, and whoever joins us now will help shape how it's done for years to come.

You don't need to have worked in fundraising before. We're looking for someone who knows how to build trust and manage relationships, whether that's come from sales, account management, hospitality, events, customer service, education, local government or anywhere else people-focused. If you can communicate clearly, stay organised under competing priorities, and genuinely care about doing right by the people you work with, we can teach you the fundraising craft. Full training, a structured induction and regular one-to-one support from our Head of Fundraising are all part of the package.

What you'll actually be doing:

• Looking after our donors, helping deliver our Stewardship Plan so supporters feel valued and connected, managing day-to-day donor communications, keeping our CRM in good shape, and supporting legacy and planned-giving work.
• Helping us win grants, with full training and support, you'll help prepare applications to funders like the National Lottery Heritage Fund, Historic England and the Cathedral Sustainability Fund, research new opportunities, and help build compelling cases for support.
• Building corporate and civic relationships, connecting the Cathedral with businesses and partners across the city and beyond.
• Working across the whole Cathedral community, from Finance and Marketing to Visitor Experience, Music, Learning and Worship, because fundraising here isn't a siloed function, it's woven into everything we do.

We know brilliant fundraisers come from all kinds of backgrounds, so if you don't tick every box on the person spec, we'd still love to hear from you. What matters most is your attitude, your communication skills and your willingness to learn, and a sympathy with the Cathedral's Christian ethos and values.

In return, you'll get:

• £32,000 salary, plus enrolment in the Cathedral pension scheme (post-probation)
• 37.5 hours a week on a flexible working pattern
• 25 days holiday plus bank holidays
• A structured induction and training plan, with regular one-to-one support from the Head of Fundraising
• A genuinely rare chance to build a fundraising career inside a 900-year-old institution during a period of real, tangible change

If that sounds like the kind of role where your people skills could do something meaningful — get in touch.

Fundraising Manager
Salary: £38,220 per annum
Full-time: 37 hours per week
Contract: Permanent
Location: Northampton, with hybrid working (minimum two days per week in the office)

Help shape the future of fundraising at Psoriasis UK.

This is a new role and a rare opportunity to become Psoriasis UK’s first specialist fundraiser.

We have strong foundations, a clear mission and an established community of supporters.  We are now looking for an experienced fundraiser to help us broaden and grow our fundraising portfolio, develop new income opportunities and build lasting relationships with supporters.

As Fundraising Manager, you will lead and develop fundraising across the charity, with particular responsibility for individual giving, community fundraising, legacy and in-memoriam giving, alongside developing other opportunities for voluntary income.

You will combine strategic thinking with hands-on delivery.  You might be developing a fundraising plan one day, writing an appeal or funding application the next, and supporting a community fundraiser or building a new partnership after that.  You will work closely with colleagues across Psoriasis UK and with senior leadership to ensure fundraising supports our strategic priorities – Supporting People, Driving Research and Advancing Care – and generates sustainable income for our work.

This is an exciting time to join Psoriasis UK as we complete our transition from the Psoriasis Association and look ahead to the next stage of our development.  You will join a small, committed team where you will have the autonomy to make the role your own and the opportunity to bring fresh ideas, expertise and energy to our fundraising.

About you

We are looking for an experienced fundraiser with a proven track record of generating income from a range of sources.  You will be comfortable balancing a varied portfolio and moving between strategic planning and practical delivery.

You will have experience of developing fundraising activity, balancing strong relationships with supporters and partners, and using data and performance measures to inform your work.  Experience in individual giving and / or legacy fundraising is particularly relevant, alongside an understanding of community fundraising and other voluntary income streams. 

You will be an excellent communicator and relationship builder, with the confidence to work independently while collaborating effectively across a small team.  You will also bring empathy and sensitivity when working with supporters and families, particularly in relation to legacy and in-memoriam giving.

You don’t need to have experience in every area of fundraising.  We are particularly interested in someone with the breadth, initiative and enthusiasm to develop a varied portfolio and help shape fundraising for the future.

About Us

Psoriasis UK is a national patient support organisation dedicated to improving the lives of people affected by psoriasis. We are driven by the mission of supporting people, advancing care, and driving research.

• Heath insurance following completion of probation
• Enhanced maternity and paternity leave after 12 months’ service
• Training and development opportunities
