Senior Philanthropy Executive - Mid-Level Giving

Location: Glasgow, Edinburgh, Kinross or Balloch - hybrid working

Salary: £41,701 - £48,200 per annum (pro rata)

Contract Type: Permanent, Full time 35 hours per week

Closing date: 06 August 2026 (11:59pm)

Focus: Mid-level giving, donor stewardship, prospect development and emerging major gifts.

Are you a confident relationship-builder who can inspire people to make a meaningful difference for children and families across Scotland?

We are looking for a Senior Philanthropy Executive to join our Partnerships & Philanthropy team and help grow income from CHAS’s mid-level giving audience. This role will focus on building strong relationships with donors and prospects who typically give £1,500–£9,999 per year, while identifying new opportunities to grow supporter loyalty, increase giving, and develop major gift prospects.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys thoughtful relationship management by combining compelling communication and proactive donor development. You will manage and grow a portfolio of mid-level donors, create tailored stewardship plans, spot opportunities within our supporter base, and work across CHAS to help build a strong pipeline of future philanthropic support.

The role sits within CHAS’s Partnerships & Philanthropy team and will play an important part in supporting long-term income growth and sustainability for the charity. The post can be based at any central CHAS site, but this is a flexible role that will allow for ample home and remote work. Regular (weekly) travel to meetings and events will be required in this role with some locations not easily accessed via public transport. It would be beneficial if you have a full driving license and access to a car. There may be opportunities for occasional overnight travel, but this will be planned well in advance and with your consultation. 

About You

To be successful in this role, you will bring a blend of fundraising experience, excellent relationship skills and the confidence to engage supporters in a warm, thoughtful and compelling way.

You will have:

• Experience of fundraising, including a track record of securing four and five figure gifts.
• Strong relationship-building skills, with experience of increasing supporters’ financial and non-financial commitment over time.
• The ability to develop compelling proposals, presentations, and donor communications that inspire people to support a cause.
• Confidence working across teams to develop strong pipelines, identify opportunities, and translate relationships into income.
• Excellent organisation and time management skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities and meet agreed deadlines.
• The ability to communicate with warmth, clarity and influence — whether through writing, meetings, events, presentations or conversations with supporters.
• An understanding of data protection, GDPR and responsible supporter information management.

You do not need to have worked in children’s hospice care before, but you should be motivated by the opportunity to represent a global leader in children’s palliative care. Knowledge of hospice or paediatric palliative care would be helpful, but it is not essential.

About CHAS

At CHAS, we support families during the toughest of times. We have ambitions to reach every family in Scotland who is living with the heart-breaking prognosis that their child is dying, offering care and support that empowers them to make the most of the time they have together.

This is a brilliant opportunity to join a supportive and ambitious fundraising team at an important moment for CHAS as we have recently launched our £20 million ‘More Than A Hospice’ appeal which will once again transform children’s palliative care in Scotland and set a new global standard.

In this role, you will help supporters feel closer to CHAS’s work, understand the impact of their giving, and see how their generosity can help children and families across Scotland. You will have the chance to shape and grow mid-level giving, work alongside colleagues across the charity, and contribute to a strong pipeline of philanthropic support for the future.

We offer:

• Flexible working: Our teams work flexibly and in a hybrid way, with time split between home and CHAS locations in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Balloch and Kinross. We are happy to discuss working arrangements that work for you.
• Development opportunities: You will gain exposure to a variety of fundraising activity, including donor stewardship, prospect development, events, proposals and major giving.
• Professional growth: You will work as part of a high-performing and supportive team where you will be encouraged to develop your skills, confidence and experience.
• Comprehensive benefits: CHAS offers generous annual leave and pension, incremental salary progression, access to Blue Light discounts, and health and wellbeing support.
