The role
This is a brand-new, standalone fundraising role, and a genuinely flexible one. You'll own the trusts, foundations and statutory funding pipeline from end to end: spotting the right opportunities, writing applications that land, and keeping funders close so they come back again.

- Research funders that align with our services and strategic goals
- Assess eligibility and funding guidelines to prioritise the strongest opportunities
- Write compelling applications, proposals and reports that bring our impact to life
- Keep clean records of applications, outcomes and reporting deadlines
- Track funding performance against targets, flagging gaps early
- Steward funder relationships to build long-term, repeat support
- Work with the team to pull together impact data, case studies and programme detail for bids
What you'll bring
- A proven track record of winning five- and six-figure grants from trusts, foundations and/or statutory funders
- Strong bid writing and reporting skills
- The organisation to manage multiple deadlines independently
- Confident written and verbal communication
- Relationship-building skills that put funders at ease
- A good head for budgets and project finances
- Comfort with Microsoft Office and fundraising CRMs
- The self-motivation to work independently in a small team
Nice to have: experience fundraising for SEN, youth or community services; CRM implementation experience; knowledge of Gloucestershire's funding landscape.
