We are a fast-growing agency with a strong reputation for delivering outstanding results. Our team of experienced fundraisers know exactly what it’s like to be on the front line and put their heart and soul into every event. 

On a day to day basis, our team maintains a safe and welcoming environment and ensures all challenge participants feel valued and well supported. Our reputation for delivering an excellent service has helped our agency grow at a rapid pace and we are fast approaching our busiest period. We are now on the lookout for talented fundraisers who understand the value of supporter care to join our team.

About the role
