Community Fundraising & Engagement Manager
Salary: £40,000 per annum
Location: North London (hybrid – 3 days per week in the office)
Contract: Full-time, permanent
Are you a people-centred Community Fundraiser who thrives on building meaningful relationships in local communities?
We’re working with a well-established UK charity seeking a Community Fundraising Manager to grow income and deepen connections across two key regions. This is a hands-on, outward-facing role for someone who enjoys inspiring supporters, working collaboratively, and turning community enthusiasm into long-term impact.
The role
This role brings together community fundraising, supporter engagement and regional relationship management. As a Community Fundraising Manager you'll work closely with individuals, volunteer fundraisers, community groups and local businesses, helping them feel confident, valued and motivated to support the charity’s work.
While the Community Fundraising Manager will be aligned to North London as a primary base, the focus is very much on community presence, partnership building and stewardship, rather than being office-bound.
Key elements of the role include:
- Developing and growing a portfolio of community and local corporate supporters
- Supporting and motivating volunteer fundraisers, providing excellent stewardship throughout their journey
- Identifying new opportunities within local communities, networks and organisations
- Delivering and supporting a programme of community-led fundraising activity and events
- Building long-term relationships that encourage repeat support and advocacy
- Working collaboratively with colleagues to share insight, ideas and best practice
About you
This role would suit someone who is confident, empathetic and highly organised, with a genuine belief in the power of community.
You’ll likely bring:
- Experience in community, regional or relationship-based fundraising
- Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to engage diverse audiences
- A proactive and creative approach to generating and developing fundraising opportunities
- Confidence managing multiple relationships and priorities at once
- Experience using a CRM or fundraising database
- A flexible approach, with occasional out-of-hours or event work
What’s on offer
- Salary of £40,000 per annum
- Hybrid working with 3 days per week in the office
- North London as your main base
- A supportive, values-led working culture
- The opportunity to play a visible role in strengthening community engagement and supporter relationships
This is an exciting opportunity for a fundraiser who believes that strong communities create lasting change, and who wants a role with real autonomy, variety and purpose.
We are committed to equality, diversity and inclusion and oppose all forms of unlawful discrimination. We recruit fairly, transparently and in line with the Equality Act 2010, welcoming candidates from all backgrounds.

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.
