Supporter development manager jobs

About us

Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP) works for the health and dignity of Palestinians living under occupation and as refugees. We are the leading UK charity delivering health and medical care to those worst affected by conflict, occupation and displacement in the occupied Palestinian territory and Lebanon.

About the role

We're looking for a Senior Supporter Acquisition Officer to help lead MAP's supporter recruitment programme at a pivotal moment for our work. You'll take the lead on multi-channel acquisition campaigns spanning DRTV, inserts, press advertising and new product development — recruiting new cash, regular and Zakat givers to MAP — and play a central role in our integrated campaigns during Ramadan and winter.

This is a role with real scope: you'll shape the strategic direction of our Individual Giving acquisition programme, lead the development of new regular giving products such as value exchange and lead generation, and build the processes that let our team deliver ambitious, high-impact campaigns. 

If you're a direct marketing or acquisition specialist who wants your skills to translate directly into lifesaving healthcare for Palestinians, this is your chance. 

As you will have seen from the role profile, this post requires a minimum of two days per week in our London office. 

MAP has a flexible working policy to support employees with additional needs, caring responsibilities etc. However, it will not be possible for this role to be completely

About you

What you'll do

• Lead the delivery of regular giving and cash acquisition campaigns across DRTV, inserts, press and other channels, from briefing through to review
• Develop acquisition journeys for regular givers in collaboration with the supporter retention team
• Play a central role in high-profile integrated campaigns during Ramadan and winter
• Help shape the strategic direction and annual plan for MAP's Individual Giving acquisition programme
• Lead the development of new regular giving products, including value exchange and lead generation
• Build and run testing plans to identify and scale what works
• Improve internal and agency processes, including content sourcing and sign-off pipelines
• Manage day-to-day relationships with media, print, fulfilment, telemarketing and creative agencies
• Support budgeting, forecasting and performance reporting

What we're looking for

• Proven experience managing Individual Giving campaigns, with a track record of meeting and exceeding targets across channels such as print, TV, telemarketing and/or digital
• Strong project management skills, with confidence managing complex campaigns end-to-end
• A strong eye for creative and storytelling, with an understanding of dignified, response-driving creative
• Strong analytical skills — ability to turn data from multiple sources into clear, actionable reporting
• Demonstrable experience influencing and managing stakeholders, internally and externally
• A good understanding of GDPR and the Fundraising Code of Practice
• Experience in a charity, humanitarian or campaigning environment is a plus, but not essential

This is a new role at High Trees, created because we believe Lambeth’s voluntary and community sector (VCS) is one of the borough’s greatest assets – strong, skilled and rooted in the communities it serves. Place-based organisations like ours play a vital role in supporting individuals, strengthening communities, growing local economies and shaping the policy decisions that affect the people we work with. We want a dedicated Manager who can help make that case, loudly and effectively, both within High Trees and across the wider system.

A key part of this role is our contract to deliver capacity building support to Lambeth’s VCS, commissioned by the local authority and delivered through the Lambeth Hubs Partnership – but this is one strand of a much bigger picture. We want this role to think beyond any single contract, taking a long-term view of what Lambeth’s VCS infrastructure support needs to look like, and leading the development of new approaches, including peer support models and a more circular economy across the sector.

Health and wellbeing is increasingly shaping where funding and investment in our sector flows, and we want Lambeth’s VCS to be ready and well-positioned to respond to this shift. You will play a leading role in this, working with partners including the SEL VCS Alliance to develop shared practice across South East London boroughs, and ensuring our sector’s voice is heard as these opportunities develop.

This role is as much strategic as it is operational – we’re never too far from the ground at High Trees, and you’ll be expected to lead on much of the day-to-day delivery yourself. That means designing and delivering workshops and one-to-one capacity building support, developing resources and toolkits, and running networking events that bring Lambeth’s VCS together. You’ll also build a network of trusted delivery partners – freelancers and facilitators, ideally drawn from within our own sector – helping to keep skills, income and opportunity circulating within Lambeth’s VCS.

As VCS Infrastructure & Development Manager, you will lead High Trees’ work to strengthen Lambeth’s voluntary and community sector, acting as an advocate for High Trees and a champion for the wider sector, while managing funded contracts and programmes that support local organisations to grow their skills, systems and impact.

The role combines strategic leadership – shaping High Trees’ contribution to the future of VCS infrastructure support, and representing the sector within key partnerships – with hands-on operational delivery, including direct capacity building support, training and events. You will be confident managing multiple work streams, and equally comfortable working strategically and on the ground.

Lead a pod in our long-running Floating Support service: hold the relationships, develop placement students, and stay close to the work.

At Likewise, the core of what we do is build meaningful one-to-one relationships with people who are finding life difficult, and use those relationships to help people feel supported and make change.

We're recruiting a Pod Leader to join our Floating Support team. As a Pod Leader, you are the person who holds that relationship with every client in your pod. You know them, stay alongside them over the long term, and are accountable for their support, even though many of the visits are carried out by the placement students you lead. You're the person who stays, while others come and go around the work.

You also play a big part in developing your students. Most arrive with no experience of this kind of work, and a lot of what makes a pod work well is the way you help them learn to do it.

Floating Support has been running for over twenty years. It's long-term, flexible support for adults in Camden, in sessions of around two hours, wherever works for the person. We reopened referrals in 2024, and the service is growing, which is part of why this role matters.

Likewise is a community-centred mental health and wellbeing charity based in Camden. We believe that people thrive when they have access to meaningful relationships, supportive communities and opportunities to contribute. We're also committed to building a different kind of organisation, one that values trust, learning, autonomy and shared responsibility.

You don't need a specific qualification to apply, and we welcome people from a range of backgrounds. But this is not an entry-level role. We need people with a good amount of work experience behind them, including some real experience of support work, whether paid or through volunteering. We're more interested in how you are with people, how you think and how you work than in your CV on paper.

If that sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you. 

Early applications are encouraged - we may conduct interviews as suitable candidates apply and we're ready to hire if we find the right person before the job ad closes.
