About the role:

This is an exciting opportunity for a dynamic self-starter looking to enter the international development sector, with the chance to develop your corporate fundraising skills, including relationship building, account management, and prospect research.

The Corporate Partnerships Intern will be a vital member of the fundraising team, playing an important role in helping retain and grow Transaid’s income.

You will work closely with the Corporate Partnerships Officer to assist with the account management of a number of successful partnerships from the UK transport and logistics industry, as well as helping to research and secure new income and in-kind support.

About Transaid:

Transaid transforms lives through safe, available, and sustainable transport.

Founded by Save the Children, The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT), and its Patron, HRH The Princess Royal, the international development organisation shares 20 years’ worth of expertise from multiple countries with partners and governments – empowering people to build the skills they need to transform their own lives.

We focus on professional driver training and rural access to transport, to solve two of the biggest transport challenges in economically developing countries:

In sub-Saharan Africa, road deaths are the third biggest killer following HIV/AIDS and Malaria (Source: The World Bank) and the problem will only rise with the growing population. Drivers are at risk every time they sit behind the wheel due to a lack of legal enforcement and training, and badly maintained and overloaded vehicles.

We work with partners and governments to train driver trainers and to create and promote far-reaching improvements in driving standards, including curricula development. Our driver training programmes make drivers more competent, vehicles safer, and reduce death and injury on the road.

People living in rural areas of Africa often struggle to access vital services. Around 75% of maternal deaths can be avoided through timely access to vital childbirth-related care (Source: The World Bank).

We enable people living rural communities to reach health services when they are in need. We strengthen transport systems and provide access to appropriate forms of transport, including bicycle ambulances.

We are a unique, passionate organisation with the technical expertise to solve these transport challenges, but we couldn’t make a tangible, sustainable difference without our partnerships within the UK transport and logistics industry.

Funding from the transport industry, fundraising challenges and individual support allows us to carry our work where we see the greatest need and pilot new ideas to understand their impact and appropriateness. We can then seek funding from international donors to implement those solutions at a much larger scale, leveraging the industry’s initial investment.

Main Responsibilities:

· Support with the account management of a number of corporate relationships, helping to maximise income and in-kind support

· Work closely with colleagues to collate information, and produce engagement materials and reports for corporate partners

· Help to develop new and imaginative fundraising and employee engagement activities

· Contribute to Transaid’s digital marketing activities, including writing and supplying content for social media, website and e-newsletter, to engage new and existing supporters

· Provide ongoing day-to-day support to the Corporate Partnerships Officer and Fundraising Team, in order to support the deliverance of the Fundraising, Communication and Organisational Strategies

· Update tracking documents and databases, maintaining accurate records

· Undertake sector and company research in order to identify potential new prospects, and to inform the development of compelling proposals and pitches

· Keep up to date with fundraising and industry information, as well as developments in Transaid’s overseas programmes

· Represent Transaid at industry and sector events

· Other duties as agreed with the Corporate Partnerships Officer and Head of Fundraising

· Ensure that all work conforms to Transaid’s policies and guidelines

 Person Specification

Essential:

· Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the energy and passion to engage people and excite them about Transaid

· Previous experience or good knowledge of fundraising

· Confident networker able to represent Transaid at industry events and to liaise with people at all levels, on the telephone, face to face and in writing

· Demonstrable research skills

· Strong time management and organisational skills, with close attention to detail and the ability to work on own initiative

· Competence in IT systems including Microsoft Office (Word, PowerPoint, Excel) and email platforms, such as Outlook

· Experience of working in an office environment

· Hard working, professional, team-player, with a can do approach

· Enthusiasm, creativity and commitment to the work of Transaid

Desirable:

· Understanding of and interest in international development

· Knowledge of the UK transport & logistics industry

· Experience of developing and maintaining long term relationships with supporters

· Experience or understanding of corporate fundraising and corporate social responsibility, and how this fits into a charity’s fundraising model

· Experience of prospect research

· Experience of managing information on fundraising databases or similar

In order to be eligible for this role, you must have permission to work in the UK.

As one of the largest cancer hospitals in the UK, we operate from 18 sites, including our Centres in Wirral & Aintree, our blood cancer Unit at the Royal, and our network of clinics across the region.  We are excited to add our brand new cancer hospital in Liverpool City Centre to this network in May 2020.

In line with our plans for the coming years, we have a new opportunity for an experienced Community Fundraising Manager to join our team.  This role will not only be instrumental in raising the final £5m of our public appeal to transform cancer care for people across Merseyside and Cheshire, but is also key to the charity's future growth. 

THE ROLE
The focus of this role will be to generate income and positive publicity for The Clatterbridge Cancer Charity through the development of an effective Community Fundraising Programme in Merseyside.

This will involve:
- Recruiting and managing volunteer fundraising groups across the area
- Working with community groups and local organisations
- Working with high street corporates & independent businesses
- Working with schools
- Representing the charity within the local community
- Managing volunteers
- Proactively recruiting new supporters and providing them with excellent donor care.

The successful candidates will be self-motivating, and have a natural ability to inspire others to achieve the best possible fundraising outcome for the charity. You will devise and implement a robust action plan for your dedicated area which draws upon your own experience and abilities, in partnership with team members and based on our current fundraising strategy, to ensure success within your own income stream.

The ideal candidate will have significant experience in community fundraising or appropriate transferable skills. You will thrive on the challenge of developing new and diverse methods of attracting support for the charity, with an ability to adapt to social and economic trends in giving. Your drive, commitment and personality will allow you to grow income through excellent relationships with supporters and potential partners.
 

THE TRUST
This is an exciting opportunity to join our dynamic and forward thinking Trust.

The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre NHS Foundation Trust is one of the UK’s leading cancer centres, providing high quality care to the population of Merseyside and Cheshire and beyond.

We provide a comprehensive range of inpatient care, advanced radiotherapy, chemotherapy and other systemic anti-cancer therapies including gene therapies and immunotherapies for the treatment of solid tumours and blood cancers. We are also the only facility in the UK providing low-energy proton beam therapy to treat rare eye cancers.

We are currently embarking on an £162 million investment in facilities including a new cancer hospital in the heart of Liverpool due to open in 2020. Based on the same thriving research and healthcare campus as the University of Liverpool and Royal Liverpool University Hospital, the new hospital will ensure every patient receives truly outstanding care and can access the most advanced treatments and clinical trials for generations to come.
