Individual Giving Fundraiser Jobs in Belfast
Closing date: 11th December 2023
Contract: FTC until February 2025
Location: This is a home-based role in Northern Ireland.
Application process: Please ensure you apply with your most updated CV and a supporting statement on why you believe you would be the most suitable individual for this position.
We reserve the right to close this vacancy early if we receive sufficient applications for the role. Therefore, if you are interested, please submit your application as early as possible.
Alzheimer’s Society’s sector-leading Gifts in Wills team are looking for a Fundraising Officer (Gifts in Wills) who can hit the ground running and take care of our supporters in Northern Ireland.
We need you to be a big thinker, curious, and compassionate; to be brave and committed to making a better world for people living with Dementia.
What can you expect?
The opportunity to make a difference: You will join our Regional Gifts in Wills team to help deliver over a third of all income that the Alzheimer’s Society receives each year. You will not be tied to a financial target – our focus is on developing incredible and long-lasting relationships with our supporters through exquisite stewardship, as well as hosting and delivering three supporter facing events per year. Success in your role will enable our colleagues to campaign for change, fund research to find a cure, and support people living with dementia today. That really is making a difference!
Be prepared to be your own boss: This is a home working role; you absolutely must be a self-starter and incredibly motivated. Look forward to an engaging, mentally stimulating, and diverse environment where you will need to be available, resourceful, and inspiring every day to give your supporters the best possible confidence in us as the right charity for them to leave a gift in their Will to. Exceptional organisation and timekeeping are a must and flexible working is welcome.
No two conversations will ever be the same: You will need to be an excellent communicator and confident in talking to supporters over the phone and in person. Virtual and in person presentations to supporters and other teams in the Society are a regular occurrence; we will teach you what to say but confidence in presenting is required. You will be the face of the Alzheimer’s Society for dedicated supporters in your region: you will be their guide through the Will-writing process, the person they put their trust in, and their sounding board. Being a people person goes without saying.
A fabulous team to support you: Our team come from all backgrounds and have a wealth of experience and skill to support you. We have scientists and teachers who chose a job change working alongside experienced fundraisers, to name a few! Previous experience as a fundraiser is not essential, although obviously it will help enormously. What is essential is the need to be a team player who will support colleagues during busy periods and who knows when to ask for help themselves. In our team, help will always be there. We work in a ‘win-lose-learn’ culture, where we learn fast but accept that within a creative, innovative, and successful environment, things will sometimes go wrong, but that we will be better from them. Every day is a learning day.
Dedicated to your development: At the Alzheimer’s Society, we are here to support you in your learning and growth. We make continuing professional development a priority through training days and conferences, as well as giving you the opportunity to lead on your own projects to gain experience. Whilst it would be great if you have experience managing projects, we can teach you to do that if you haven’t. What you do need is the ability to be proactive and to inspire and motivate others.
About Alzheimer's Society
At Alzheimer's Society, we believe passionately that life doesn't end when dementia begins. We are here for anyone affected by dementia, and we do everything we can to keep people with dementia connected to their lives and the people who matter most.
Everything we do is shaped by people affected by dementia. Their knowledge and experience are critical to bringing about real-world solutions. From choosing the most promising research through to telling their stories to raise awareness; they are the heart of this organisation.

Our ultimate goal is to find a cure and make myeloma history. Until then, our mission is to help every patient live well with myeloma for as long as possible. We are committed to diagnosing myeloma earlier, discovering and sharing knowledge, transforming the patient experience and influencing positive change in care.
About the role
This is a new role within the Philanthropy and Strategic Partnerships team responsible for developing and leading our major donor programme. Myeloma UK is embarking on an ambitious five-year income generation strategy, which aims to increase income from £5m to £10m by 2028. This position will play a critical role, working alongside the Head of Philanthropy and Strategic Partnerships to double the income we raise from major donors and family trusts by securing 5-6 figure grants for a range of innovative and life changing programmes – including patient and family support, research and advocacy. The Philanthropy Manager is also responsible for managing and supporting the Philanthropy Officer in securing mid to high level donations from individuals.
The major donor programme at Myeloma UK is established - we have a strong community of existing high-level supporters and have identified significant potential donors within our community - but these opportunities have not been fully leveraged in the past. Building on this foundation, and a major fundraising Gala planned for Spring 2024, there is a significant opportunity to transform this area of fundraising and this role will be instrumental in delivering a step change in our approach. The role requires outstanding relationship building skills, and the ability to work with high-net-worth individuals, to build credibility and trust and inspire them to support Myeloma UK.

Percival is excited to be working exclusively with Surviving Economic Abuse (SEA) in its search for a new Corporate Development Manager. In this newly created position, the postholder will be responsible for driving new business and nurturing partnerships particularly within the financial services sector whilst influencing key audiences and stakeholders to help grow and diversify SEA’s income.
At Surviving Economic Abuse (SEA), the team tackles one of society’s biggest issues. One in six women reports that a former or current partner has controlled or is controlling their economic resources – money and the things it can buy such as food, clothing, transportation, and housing. Through economic control, abusers limit women’s freedoms, they steal their futures, and, in far too many cases, they take their lives. Yet too few people are aware of economic abuse – even those who experience it.
