Save the Children UK believes in a world that is fair, inclusive and equitable where all children have the opportunity to change their world. We apply this to our workforce and we are committed to developing and supporting a diverse, equitable, and inclusive organisation where all employees have a sense of belonging and feel that they can be "Free to Be Me". We are not looking for just one type of person - we want to recruit people who can add fresh perspectives, innovative ideas or challenge that disrupts the risk of group think. 

We are especially interested in people whose childhood experiences - of life on a low income, of migration, of being in a racialised community, of the care system, of being LGBT+ or in an LGBT+ family or living with (or with someone with) a disability - help us to see things we might otherwise miss. Whatever your story is we want to hear it because we know that different voices, ideas, perspectives and knowledge, working together will enable us to better the lives of children around the world. This is the reason why we are all here. 

Make a Real Difference Where It Matters Most

Why Kingston Hospital Charity?

Because here, your work genuinely matters. Kingston Hospital Charity isn’t just another fundraising operation, it’s the driving force behind projects that transform patient care across Kingston and Richmond NHS Foundation Trust. From creating dementia friendly environments on Kingston Hospital’s care of the elderly wards to funding the introduction of robotic assisted surgery, the charity turns generosity into tangible change. They fund what the NHS isn’t able to, bringing comfort, dignity, and innovation to patients when they need it most - and they’re ambitious about scaling that impact even further.

The team has a clear plan: to sustainably grow income and build a supporter giving programme that delivers measurable impact for patients, creates meaningful experiences for donors, and nurtures genuine, lasting relationships through storytelling that truly resonates.

What Makes This Role Great

This is both a strategic and hands-on role. You’ll lead on gifts in wills and in-memory fundraising — with the freedom to shape and grow these income streams. Working alongside the Director and the Communications and Engagement Senior Manager, you’ll develop and deliver a three-year strategy that drives real change.

You’ll collaborate with dedicated clinical colleagues and passionate supporters who care deeply about the cause. And you’ll do it within an organisation that lives its values: compassion, inclusivity, collaboration, and a genuine commitment to helping every person thrive.

Hybrid working, a supportive team, and a culture that celebrates impact. It’s the kind of role that reminds you why you got into fundraising in the first place.

Who We’re Looking For

You have solid experience in gifts in wills, and/or in-memory fundraising — and a track record of developing strategies that meet (and exceed) targets. You’re confident communicating with everyone from solicitors to clinicians to supporters, tailoring your message to build trust and engagement.

Organised, adaptable, and purpose-driven, you believe that great fundraising changes lives — and you’re ready to prove it.
