-
Create clear, engaging supporter journeys that move people from a first gift to ongoing involvement. Use insight and data to understand behaviour, re‑engage lapsed donors where appropriate and identify opportunities to develop mid‑value giving.

Maintain oversight of individual giving performance, tracking income against target and identifying trends, risks and opportunities early. Contribute to forecasting and planning, bringing structure and confidence to this growing income stream.
-
Work closely with Relationship Fundraisers and the Partnerships Manager to ensure activity is joined up, supporting community donors to move into wider giving journeys and making the most of opportunities such as payroll giving. Play an active role in monthly income discussions and in shaping our wider growth plans.

Woodgreen exists to ensure every pet has a healthy, happy home and that every owner receives the support needed to make this possible. Whether responding to urgent calls, delivering vital supplies and food packages, visiting communities for health and wellbeing checks or offering practical advice, our team are always ready to help. We work alongside owners in their homes to help keep pets and their people together, stepping in before a moment of crisis becomes a heartbreaking separation. And when staying together isn’t possible, Woodgreen continues to care for pets, giving them the shelter, support and kindness they need until they can find another loving home.
We are delivering an ambitious fundraising strategy to grow and optimise voluntary net income, public support and awareness of our charity. A brand-new weekly lottery is at the heart of these plans, and we are looking for a Lottery & Raffle Campaign Manager to help us launch it — and shape the future of fundraising at Woodgreen.
This is a rare opportunity to launch a charitable lottery from the ground up. You’ll work closely with our External Lottery Manager (ELM) and lead Woodgreen through to our first weekly draw. Alongside the lottery, you’ll take ownership of our raffle programme — which has just gone through a successful transformation and continues to grow — and bring the two products together into one thriving gaming programme.
You will:
- Lead the end-to-end implementation of our Weekly Lottery, from setup and compliance through to launch and beyond.
- Manage Woodgreen’s relationship with the External Lottery Manager, ensuring the programme runs compliantly and effectively.
- Take day-to-day ownership of the raffle programme, building on its recent transformation and growing it as part of an integrated gaming offer.
- Project manage direct marketing campaigns across direct mail and digital, from briefing through to evaluation, using data and insight to optimise performance.
- Partner with our Acquisition team on player recruitment across Face-to-Face, paid media and other channels.
- Ensure full compliance with Gambling Commission regulations, the Gambling Act 2005, LCCP obligations and Fundraising Codes of Practice.
- Support budget setting, monitoring and evaluation, interrogating results to inform future campaigns.
Bringing significant experience of managing a charity lottery or raffle programme, alongside substantial experience of developing and delivering direct marketing campaigns you will have strong project and budget management skills, and a detailed working knowledge — or a real appetite to build one — of large society lottery compliance, including responsible gambling and marketing rules.
Above all, you will be genuinely analytical, comfortable working with data, confident interrogating campaign results, and skilled at spotting the patterns that drive better decisions. You will use insight to challenge assumptions — including your own — and to keep raising the bar on what your campaigns deliver. Organised and comfortable juggling multiple priorities, you will be a confident communicator at ease briefing agencies and working across teams, someone who cares about doing things properly: brand, compliance and supporter experience all matter equally.
This full time, permanent opportunity will operate in a hybrid working environment and although much of it can be done remotely our successful candidate must be able to attend our offices near Godmanchester, Cambridgeshire (PE29 2NH) for an average of 1-2 times per month dependent on business need.
The starting salary for this position is £36,665 - £44,812 per annum depending on experience. This is complemented by;
- 36 days annual leave per year (inclusive of bank holidays) rising by 1 day each year to a maximum of 40 days after five years
- Up to 8% employer pension contributions
- Support towards healthcare costs (cashplan)
- Employee wellbeing package to include free access to Headspace
- Life assurance (4x salary)

THE CHARITY
Suicide is the leading cause of death of men under 35 and three quarters of those who die by suicide are men. James’ Place exists to save the lives of men in suicidal crisis through delivering clinical services. We are a charity currently offering free, life-saving therapy to suicidal men at our centres in Liverpool, London and Newcastle.
James’ Place was set up by Clare Milford Haven and Nick Wentworth-Stanley in 2008 after their twenty-one-year-old son, James, died by suicide ten days after a minor operation. James had no history of mental illness or depression and had sought urgent help for anxiety and suicidal thoughts but didn’t find it.
James' Place was set up to make the experience of finding help as easy as possible. We offer men who are experiencing a suicidal crisis a brief, intensive, therapeutic intervention in a safe environment. Men who walk through the door at James’ Place will be in a space where they feel valued and respected. We provide a calm and peaceful environment both inside the centres and in our outside spaces, accessible to men who visit us as well as their friends and families. We have so far treated over 5,100 men who might otherwise have been unable to access the support they desperately need.

Why CHAS?
Every week, in Scotland, three children die from an incurable condition, and CHAS provides unwavering care at every step on this hardest of journeys for families facing this devastating reality, in our two hospices, in hospitals and at home.
We have ambitions to reach every family in Scotland who is living with the heart-breaking prognosis that their child is dying and offer them our care and support to empower them to make the most of the short time they have together because no-one should face the death of their child alone. As Assistant Community Fundraiser, you will be instrumental in achieving this vision.
This is a pivotal moment to join CHAS. We’ve just launched More Than A Hospice – a £20 million appeal to change how Scotland cares for children who will die young, and for the families who love them.
As part of working with CHAS, you will:
- Be able to work flexibly.
- Have access to a range of development opportunities.
- Be encouraged to challenge yourself.
- Have the opportunity to learn from a supportive and high performing team.
The benefits package for working with CHAS include:
- Generous annual leave.
- Membership of the Local Government Pension Scheme.
- Access to wellness support.
- Access to discounts, including the Blue Light Card.
- HSF Health Care Plan.
This role will be based in our Head Office in Edinburgh, with some travel to other CHAS sites required for meetings and for picking up / dropping off materials with supporters.
