Are you an experienced fundraiser who shares the Jesuit Refugee Service’s (JRS) vison of a world where all who have to flee their homes are welcomed with love?

JRS UK is seeking to recruit an experienced Fundraising Officer on a part-time basis (3 days, 22.5 hours a week) who will have primary responsibility for raising income from charitable trusts and foundations. 

This new role seeks to develop JRS UK’s trusts and foundations income through building on the existing strong relationships we have with trusts, and developing new ones. The Fundraising Officer will be responsible for securing grant income for the different projects of JRS UK’s work to accompany, serve, and advocate for the rights of refugees and forcibly displaced people. 

The role will suit someone who is passionate about researching potential grant funders who would be interested in supporting its work with asylum seekers who’ve been made destitute as a consequence of government policies, and those held in immigration detention; someone with excellent written communication skills to draft inspiring applications, sharing the impact of its work with over 300 destitute refugees across Greater London. 

A self-starter, the Fundraising Officer will work independently, with support from the Communications & Development Manager and the Director, to manage a diverse portfolio of relationships to secure funding and support for JRS UK’s work, typically in the region of £1,000 to £50,000. 

This role comes at an exciting time in JRS UK’s history as the organisation looks to increase awareness of its work, with ambitious plans to grow income from trusts & foundations. The Fundraising Officer will play a pivotal role in ensuring JRS UK diversifies and stabilises its income streams, ensuring the organisation can continue to accompany and serve refugees and those who are forcibly displaced. 

This role will suit a confident, proactive and successful fundraiser, with good organisational skills and attention to detail, who is able to build positive relationships with a range of supporters, volunteers, staff, and refugees. 

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced professional to join the recently formed Young K&C as a Development Manager. A varied role, you will be helping create an innovative new organisation and make a real difference to young people’s lives.

Together we will shape opportunities and create the best services for children and young people in Kensington & Chelsea through supporting and sustaining the children and young people’s sector.

A membership organisation, the Development Manager will help build and manage the membership base and create strong consortia.  You will have tenacity and drive, leading funding applications and working with corporates and individuals to leverage investment.

Young K&C will also be offering small grants to its member charities.  Your role will be to help us develop our grant giving and manage our grant making processes.

We are seeking a passionate and highly skilled individual into an exciting and flexible environment which offers excellent prospects as the charity develops.

Are you someone with brilliant customer service skills? Do you have great attention to detail and organisational skills? Are you ready to join an exceptional team making a huge difference to our Bristol hospitals and community? This might be the role for you….

Over the past 12 months the Above & Beyond fundraising and marketing team has seen a large increase in support for the charity. We are expanding the team to maintain momentum and continue to deliver a fantastic service to our supporters.

Working closely with the Supporter Care Coordinator, you will play a key role supporting the team and helping to provide excellent stewardship and supporter care to donors. You will help administer our fundraising activities, ensuring our fundraising database is up-to-date and donations are processed via a range of payment methods. 

You’ll have an excellent telephone manner and solid administrative experience with a proven eye for detail. You will bring warmth and diplomacy to this incredibly special role.

You will be reporting to the Individual Giving and Legacy Manager but will have opportunities to work across the team and the fundraising and marketing portfolio. This role will offer you wonderful opportunities to develop your experience alongside warm and supportive colleagues.

Do you have proven experience of building relationships with, and fundraising from, Trusts, Foundations, Lottery or similar bodies? Then join Shelter as a Fundraising Executive - Trusts and Foundations and you could soon be playing a key role in raising vital funds to support our work which is needed more than ever. 

A home is a fundamental human need, as essential as education or healthcare. Yet millions of people across Britain struggle on a daily basis with homelessness, bad housing conditions, soaring rents, discrimination and the threat of eviction. And, in the middle of a pandemic, our services have seen demand soar. Thousands more people are facing uncertainty and, as the impact on individual finances and the economy continues to emerge, sadly the number of people facing homelessness is likely to grow. Fundraising have never been more important.  Join us and together we can prevent more people from losing their homes. 

About the Role 
Building and managing relationships with a varied portfolio of trusts and foundations to secure gifts of £5,000 or more is the challenge here. That will include warm, lapsed and new trusts with a variety of funding interests, relationship management needs and application requirements. Accordingly, you’ll need to research, correspond, contact and meet with funders to build relationships ahead of submitting applications. And, for restricted applications, you’ll work with colleagues across Shelter to ensure each application meets our strategic objectives. Ensuring gifts from your portfolio are acknowledged in a timely manner will be important too, as will maintain a positive relationship with funders between applications. Managing regular mailings, sharing knowledge and supporting cross-team projects – all are aspects of this vital income-generating role.

About you 
You’re a passionate fundraiser with a proven track record of working with Trusts, Foundations, Lottery or similar bodies, and you have a thorough understanding of their needs utilising a range of techniques e.g. face-to-face, telephone, in writing etc. Excellent written communications skills are key, as is experience of creating clear, concise, and compelling applications and reports for funders. Confident in your ability to develop meaningful relationships with funders, including meeting them face-to-face to discuss funding opportunities, you're great at managing internal stakeholders too. What’s more, you're proficient using Microsoft Office applications plus Raiser’s Edge or a similar database.

Benefits
We offer a wide range of benefits, including 30 days of annual leave, enhanced family friendly policies, pension and interest free travel loans. Our employees also have access to a tenancy deposit loan, payroll giving, cycle to work scheme and an employee assistance programme.

Shelter helps millions of people every year struggling with bad housing or homelessness through our advice, support and legal services. And we campaign to make sure that, one day, no one will have to turn to us for help. We’re here so no one has to fight bad housing or homelessness on their own.

Could you inspire funders to support the John Muir Trust’s vision of a world where wild places are respected, where nature flourishes, and where the value of wildness is shared for the benefit of everyone? 

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the Trust’s Fundraising team in Edinburgh. This permanent, full-time role will have primary responsibility for raising both core and restricted income from charitable trusts, grants and statutory funders – key income streams for the Trust.

Fundraising has rarely been so important or so challenging; the ongoing pandemic and its effects have increased uncertainty around future fundraising for all charities, so flexibility and experience across other areas of income generation will be useful as the role has the potential to evolve alongside the changing fundraising landscape. There will be opportunities to broaden experience across e.g. corporate fundraising and legacy promotion.

The post is to be based at the Trust’s Edinburgh (Leith) office, but owing to Covid-19 it is expected that some home working will be required.
