REF-226 040

Our Fundraising Assistant will provide key administrative support to the Fundraising Team. Being based primarily at our Shrewsbury office, this person will be a key point of contact for our supporters in the office, and will assist with managing online fundraising platforms, email and phone communications and ensuring fundraising materials are ready and waiting to go out into the community.

This person will also work closely with our Operations Team, ensuring that they have the information they need to process donations accurately, and that our valued supporters are thanked in a timely manner. They will form part of a rota with Operations colleagues to ensure all Reception desks are staffed as required.

They will be friendly, able to communicate well with people across the community, including those living with cancer or who are bereaved. They will also be collaborative, detail-focussed and willing to work with others to solve problems.

We are looking for someone to work 22.5 hours per week; this can be worked in a flexible pattern as agreed, within office hours and across at least three working days. This role can be worked within school hours across five days if required. This role will be based primarily at our office at the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital but will need to work at our other sites within Shropshire, Telford and Mid Wales on occasion.

We're the only Museum of the Home in the world - revealing home as an emotional, psychological, socio-political and economic space - as well as the bricks and mortar.

Museum of the Home is a movement as much as a museum - seeing home as a lens through which many of the vital issues impacting the world can be viewed and solutions found. 

Building on the foundation of a dynamic, partnership-focused new Museum strategy to take us to 2031, the role of Head of Development will play a key part in growing and diversifying our income streams and supporters. 

We’re looking for someone who brings both strategic thinking and hands on practical delivery skills to fundraising. The role involves: 

• Leadership and management of all charitable income streams and developing new forms of support 

• Building the growth of philanthropic income

• Implementing and refining our fundraising strategy

• Contributing to the management and future direction of the Museum as part of the Leadership Team 

If you’re an experienced fundraising leader looking for the opportunity to make your mark, we’d love to hear from you. The role is a great opportunity to support a small, committed team and to contribute to the next stage of the Museum’s story. 

Closing date for applications is 5pm Thursday 22 January. We aim to shortlist and let candidates know by 27 January. 

Interviews will be held in person at the Museum on Tuesday 3 February.  You will need to prepare a presentation/task ahead of interview, and this will form part of your interview discussion. If there is need for a second interview, we'll let you know. 

Whilst we are searching for a full time post, we will carefully consider part time, 28 hours/4 days per week.
