Job description

At Eden Valley Hospice and Jigsaw, every walk, run, climb, and challenge represents something deeply personal. Behind every fundraising event is someone choosing to give their time, energy and determination so that local families can receive compassionate care when they need it most.

About the role 

In this varied and rewarding role, you’ll:

·         Lead the planning and delivery of a programme of fundraising events — from small community activities to large scale and challenge events

·         Be the key point of contact for our challenge fundraisers, supporting them before, during and after their events

·         Build meaningful, long term relationships that make supporters feel valued, inspired and proud to fundraise for us

·         Work closely with colleagues in Fundraising and Marketing to share stories, celebrate success and grow engagement

·         See the real world impact of your work every day, knowing the funds you help raise directly support adults, children and families across our community

Who we’re looking for

 You don’t have to come from hospice fundraising — what matters most is that you:

·         Enjoy delivering events and supporting people who are fundraising for a cause they care about

·         Have strong communication and relationship building skills

·         Are organised, proactive and comfortable juggling multiple priorities

·         Care about doing things well — and making people feel genuinely appreciated

If you love seeing plans come to life, helping others succeed, and being part of something meaningful, we’d love to hear from you.

Why work with us?

 As well as the opportunity to do work that truly matters, we offer:

·         Free, confidential access to our Employee Assistance Programme

·         Free on site parking

·         Life insurance for all staff working regular hours

·         Discounted local gym membership

·         Access to discount schemes for high street retailers and more

You’ll also be joining a supportive, passionate team who believe in collaboration, kindness and celebrating success together.
