The Hunger Project UK Fundraising and Campaigns Coordinator

Are you looking for a role that really makes a difference helping to empower women and men to end their own hunger and poverty? 

About The Hunger Project UK

The Hunger Project UK is a small, mission-driven charity and UK fundraising partner of The Hunger Project — a global movement founded in 1977 with more than 40 years of evidence that ending hunger is possible. Working across 13 programme countries in rural Africa, South Asia and Latin America, The Hunger Project pioneers sustainable, grassroots, women-centred strategies, believing that people living in hunger are themselves the key to ending it.

We are a lean, consultant-based team with an ambitious three-year strategy. We work collaboratively, we work with purpose, and we care about the quality of everything that carries our name.

The role

We are looking for an experienced Fundraising and Campaigns Coordinator — with at least five years in a fundraising role within the charity sector — to join our small team in the second half of 2026. This is a hands-on delivery role: you will be the person who owns campaigns end to end, builds the newsletters, schedules the posts, writes the copy and gets things live.

You will work within a clear strategic direction set by the senior team, but you will own everything from there — developing the angle and narrative, writing the copy, submitting the application, building the promotional plan across all channels, and closing it out with donor reporting and thanks. We want someone who takes a steer and runs with it, and who brings genuine creative and fundraising intelligence to how the work gets done.

This is a part-time, flexible consultancy engagement. We work to a variable monthly arrangement — hours flex with the needs of the organisation, averaging 30–40 hours per month, with busier periods during campaigns.

What you will do

Fundraising campaigns

• End-to-end ownership of Big Give and matched fundraising campaigns across all three annual rounds — from developing the angle and narrative through to application, asset creation, public-facing campaign, social content and donor impact follow-up
• Supporting funding applications and proposals with compelling, well-researched copy
• Managing and maintaining content and access across multiple fundraising platforms

Communications and content

• Newsletters and campaign emails via Mailchimp, built to brief and on brand
• Social media content creation and scheduling across LinkedIn, Instagram and Facebook, using Canva and Later
• Short-form video editing for Reels and social content
• Website content updates and maintenance in WordPress
• Brand consistency across all channels and materials, applying THP guidelines independently
• Liaison with THP global communications teams who hold brand collateral

Supporter experience

• Donor journey content in Beacon CRM, supporting the supporter communications flow
• Continuous improvement of supporter-facing content and touchpoints
• Simple monthly reporting on comms and campaign performance

What we are looking for

You are an experienced fundraising and campaigns professional who is genuinely energised by getting things done. You understand how donors think, you write well, and you can hold a campaign from first conversation to final thank-you without being chased. You are tools-confident and comfortable with working independently.

Essential

• Solid experience of at least 5 years in a fundraising and/or campaigns role in the charity sector
• Fundraising literacy — you understand what a donor journey is for, how matched fundraising works, and how to write copy that moves people to give
• Strong writing skills — clear, purposeful, on-brand; able to adapt tone across audiences
• Hands-on proficiency with Mailchimp, Canva and social media scheduling tools such as Later
• WordPress experience — content updates and basic maintenance
• Comfortable working in a small, collaborative organisation without a large support structure
• Self-starter: able to work from a strategic steer and own delivery end to end without day-to-day supervision
• Genuinely comfortable with variable hours

Desirable

• Experience of international development or women-focused organisations
• Experience with Big Give campaigns or similar matched fundraising
• CRM experience, particularly Beacon
• Short-form video editing for socials

Terms of engagement

• Consultancy basis or fixed term contract, with a view to extension
• Approximately 30–40 hours per month on average; hours vary with organisational need and will be higher during campaign periods
• Fully remote, UK based; occasional in-person meetings in London. Applications are accepted only from candidates with the right to work in the UK.
• £1,200-£2,000 per month, to be agreed on appointment
• Reports to CEO; day-to-day direction from our Operations and Relationships Consultant

How to apply

To apply, please send your CV and a covering note of no more than one page telling us why this role interests you and how your experience is relevant.

We will review all applications and respond to every candidate. Selected applicants will be invited to complete a short skills exercise before the interview. Interviews will take place in August 2026.

Application deadline: 27 July 2026.

We are committed to an inclusive recruitment process and welcome applications from candidates of all backgrounds. If you require any adjustments to support your application, please let us know.

About the roles

Last year we launched our most ambitious strategy yet - Change Happens Now. To deliver on its promise, we have identified a phased and prioritised pipeline of cross-cutting strategic programmes that will move us closer to a future where, by 2050, everyone diagnosed with breast cancer lives - and is supported to live well.

We’re now looking for 2 Strategic Programme Leads to help deliver our strategy. You’ll work in our Strategy, Planning & Innovation (SPI) team, which is responsible for strategic change programmes, planning, innovation and involvement.

Both posts share the same job description and grade and will work flexibly across SPI’s full portfolio. However, each role has a distinct focus area and differs in contract type:

• Role 1 - Health Systems and Improvement – Permanent: This role focus is in health systems and improvement, which will include leading place-based programmes, stewarding UK-wide health-improvement standards, and building the external relationships needed to deliver system-level change.
• Role 2 - Engagement at Scale – 2 year fixed term. This role focus is in ‘engagement at scale’ programmes, in its first year, it will include programme leadership of our universal offer, an organisation-wide programme aimed at delivering an accessible support offer for everyone affected by breast cancer. It will also include providing strategic partnership for other large-scale programmes, such as healthcare professional engagement initiatives and behaviour change.

While each role has a primary focus area, we expect both post-holders to be flexible and adaptable. Priorities change, and you'll need to be equally comfortable working across specialisms, seeing the focus areas as a starting point which will evolve with organisational priorities.

About you

Whilst both roles are the same, given the specialisms, for role 1, we're particularly interested in candidates with experience of external connectivity across the UK health system landscape and a working knowledge of NHS structures, integrated care systems, clinical pathways and health inequalities. For role 2, we're particularly interested in candidates with experience of scaled engagement work, such as leading public engagement, support or community programmes.

For both roles, you’ll be able to get into the detail when it matters, including the design and sequencing of the programme itself. On some programmes you'll be the strategic lead, owning the work from start to finish and being the trusted strategic advisor to expert leaders. On others you'll partner an expert team, bringing the wider organisation in behind their delivery and working through the barriers that hold progress back.

You'll be confident leading, designing and running pilots and prototypes, with clear measures of success and an evidence-led approach to learning and improvement, ensuring you keep lived experience of breast cancer at the heart of your work. You'll be comfortable with ambiguity, making progress at pace without losing rigour, and you'll bring an innovation mindset, creating the conditions, methods and permission for teams to test, scale and embed new ways of working.

Most importantly, you'll be able to be flexible in your workload, and motivated by the chance to lead change in an organisation that wants to be brave, determined and ambitious - one that backs innovation, challenges the status quo when it needs to, and is willing to commit to the big, multi-year work that real impact requires.

Citizens UK

Citizens UK is the UK’s biggest, most diverse and most effective people-powered alliance. We bring communities and local organisations together to work on issues that matter; from campaigning for zebra crossings on dangerous roads, to reforming the immigration system, to the Living Wage campaign. We have a track record of winning change through hundreds of local and national campaigns. We know everyday people have the ability to shape the world around them. We believe that through developing local leaders, we can drive nationwide change and create community-led solutions to big and small problems.

Living Wage Foundation

The Living Wage movement began in 2001, after Citizens UK brought together communities in East London to discuss poverty and low pay. The campaign grew in momentum and soon required a mechanism to recognise employers who wanted to join the movement, which saw the establishment of the Living Wage Foundation in 2011.

Still part of Citizens UK today, the Living Wage Foundation continues to work with community organisations to make sure the voices of both workers and businesses are part of the Living Wage movement. We now work with over 16,000 employers, benefitting half a million people and winning over £3bn of better wages for people who need it most. 

Citizens UK works with a broad base of institutions across the political spectrum. At the Living Wage Foundation, we take the same deliberately broad-based approach and accredit all organisations who pay the real Living Wage to their directly and indirectly employed staff and are committed to tackling in work poverty.  As a team we work across a range of industries and sectors to achieve this mission. We seek pragmatic coalitions to progress specific campaigns, and partnership around a particular issue such as Living Wage, does not imply an endorsement of broader purpose and policies. We are a non-partisan organisation and work with partners across the political spectrum to advance our mission.

Purpose

The Living Wage Foundation is seeking an experienced and driven Senior Media and Communications Manager to join our team for a 12-month contract. This is an exciting opportunity for a highly organised and proactive communications professional with a strong background in media relations, public messaging, and team leadership.
