For 50 years, SportsAid has been backing the next generation of athletes.

But we're only just getting started.

As we launch our new organisational strategy and celebrate our 50th anniversary, we're entering an exciting new chapter—one that will see us grow our impact, strengthen lifelong relationships with athletes and supporters, and build one of the UK's most engaged sporting communities.

We're looking for an ambitious and experienced fundraising leader to help make that happen.

Our Vision

From potential to personal best – whatever your story.

We want a future where talented athletes can pursue their ambitions, whatever their background, circumstances or income.

A future where talent is not lost because life gets in the way, and where support comes early, consistently and without conditions.

Our Mission

SportsAid exists to champion and support the next generation of athletes to fulfil their potential in sport and in life.

We invest early. We back ambition. We bring together partners, supporters and alumni to provide financial help, trusted guidance and belief—particularly at the moments when staying in sport becomes hardest.

For five decades, we have stood alongside athletes when success was uncertain and outcomes were unknown. Today, our ambition goes further.

We believe talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not. That's why we're strengthening support for athletes and families, amplifying athlete voices, building lifelong communities of athletes and alumni, and working with partners to create a sporting system where potential—not background—shapes opportunity.

The Opportunity

This is far more than a community fundraising role.

You'll lead the development of SportsAid's Community Fundraising & Engagement programme at a pivotal moment in our history, helping shape the future of one of the UK's most respected sports charities.

Working closely with the Head of Fundraising and Communications and as part of an ambitious leadership team, you'll develop and deliver a bold community fundraising strategy, grow sustainable unrestricted income and create outstanding supporter experiences that inspire people to back the next generation.

You'll also provide strategic leadership for our growing alumni engagement programme, ensuring former SportsAid athletes remain connected through mentoring, advocacy, storytelling, volunteering and fundraising.

Whether it's launching new fundraising products, growing challenge events, building partnerships with schools, clubs and communities, or developing innovative supporter journeys, you'll have the freedom to build something with lasting impact.

About You

You're someone who enjoys creating as much as delivering.

You combine strategic thinking with a practical, hands-on approach and know that exceptional fundraising is built on exceptional relationships.

You may currently be leading community fundraising, supporter engagement or individual giving within a charity and be looking for the opportunity to shape a programme with genuine national potential.

You'll bring:

· Significant experience developing successful community fundraising or supporter engagement programmes.

· A track record of growing sustainable income and building long-term supporter relationships.

· Experience leading people, developing strategy and delivering results.

· Strong commercial awareness and an entrepreneurial mindset.

· Excellent relationship-building, influencing and communication skills.

· A passion for creating outstanding supporter experiences.

Most importantly, you'll be excited by the opportunity to build, innovate and help shape the future of SportsAid.

Why Join SportsAid?

There has never been a more exciting time to join us.

As we celebrate our 50th anniversary, we're investing in ambitious plans to expand our fundraising, strengthen lifelong relationships with athletes and supporters, and increase our impact across the UK.

You'll join an ambitious, collaborative and values-led organisation with an engaged Board, a supportive leadership team and colleagues who genuinely care about our mission.

We offer:

· Salary of £50,000–£55,000 (pro rata if 0.8 FTE)

· Home-based or hybrid working

· Flexible working arrangements

· Private healthcare

· Pension contribution

· Cycle to Work Scheme

About Kidney Research UK:
Kidney Research UK is the leading charity in the UK focused on funding research into the prevention, treatment and management of kidney disease. Our vision is the day when everyone lives free from kidney disease and for more than 60 years the research, we fund has been making an impact. But kidney disease is increasing as are the factors contributing to it, such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease and obesity, making our work more essential than ever

At Kidney Research UK we work with clinicians and scientists across the UK, funding and facilitating research into all areas of kidney disease. We collaborate with partners across the public, private and third sectors to prevent kidney disease and drive innovation to transform treatments.

Over the last ten years we have invested more than £71 million into research. We lobby governments and decision makers to change policy and practice to ensure that the estimated 7.2 million people living with all stages of kidney disease in the UK have access to the most effective care and treatment, and to make kidney disease a priority.

Most importantly, we also work closely with patients, ensuring their voice is heard and is at the centre of everything we do, from deciding which research to invest in to how we plan our priorities and our work across the charity.

Those patient contributions are vital, always helping us and our partners to understand what life is like with kidney disease, always ensuring we see the patient behind the treatment and always reminding us that behind every statistic and every number is a person – the patients and the carers who inspire our mission and push us forward to make a difference and change the future of kidney disease.

Closing date: Tuesday 14 July 2026. We may extend the closing date, however, please apply as soon as possible.
