About us
Prostate Scotland is the leading charity dedicated to prostate cancer and prostate disease in Scotland. We work to ensure that every man affected by prostate cancer and disease has access to trusted information, support and guidance when they need it most.
We are a small, committed organisation with big ambitions. As we begin delivering our new five-year strategy, this is an exciting time to join our team and help us increase our impact for men and their families across Scotland.
About the role
Our supporters are central to everything we do. Many choose to fundraise for Prostate Scotland because they, or someone close to them, has been affected by prostate cancer or disease.
As Fundraising Officer, you will play a key role in supporting individuals and communities to raise vital funds. You will provide warm, practical and responsive support throughout their fundraising journey — from helping them set up online fundraising pages, to answering questions, sharing their stories and celebrating their achievements. You will help build meaningful relationships with supporters, ensuring they feel valued, listened to and inspired to continue supporting our work.
What you’ll be doing
- Supporting individual and community fundraisers throughout their journey
- Building and managing positive relationships with supporters and partners
- Contributing to fundraising plans and income growth
- Supporting the implementation and ongoing use of our new CRM system
- Maintaining accurate supporter records and reporting
- Championing supporter activity and recognising fundraising achievements
Who we’re looking for
- You are someone who enjoys working with people and building relationships. You are organised, proactive and comfortable juggling different priorities. You may already have experience in fundraising, supporter care or customer-focused roles, or you may be looking to take your next step into the charity sector.
- Most importantly, you share our commitment to improving outcomes for men affected by prostate cancer and disease.
Why work for Prostate Scotland?
You’ll be joining a supportive, friendly team where your work will make a real difference. We value collaboration, compassion and continuous improvement, and we are committed to creating an inclusive and positive working environment.
