Surrounded by 12 acres of beautiful woodland garden St Joseph's hospice cares for around 200 patients, and their families, every year from across a diverse geographical area, which includes Sefton, Liverpool and West Lancashire.
It is one of the oldest hospices in the country, for over 50 years the hospice has been passionate about providing high-quality, professional nursing care within a peaceful, home from home environment.
"My father-in-law spent the last few weeks of his life there and the care he and his family received was second to none. Being perfectly honest when my turn comes if I am not lucky enough to die peacefully in my sleep then this is where I would want to be.".
All of the invaluable services the hospice provides, which include bereavement services, are entirely free of charge to patients and their families despite costing around £10k per day to run, so the hospice is largely dependent on fundraised income.
We are looking for a committed and enthusiastic Community & Events Fundraiser to join the ambitious and dedicated Fundraising Team at the hospice.
The Role
As a Community & Events Fundraiser you will be responsible for developing and implementing a programme of vibrant, commercially successful fundraising events. Duties will include:
- Managing community fundraising and building relationships with donors to maximise income.
- Recruiting and managing the Fundraising volunteers.
- Supporting the Income & Business Development Manager in delivering the annual objectives and targets.
- Attending third party fundraising events to offer support and promote the hospice within the community
The Person
To be considered for this exciting opportunity you will have excellent people skills with the ability to enthuse and motivate others. Proven experience of fundraising and events would be desirable; however, we are keen to hear from people with transferable backgrounds including volunteering, business development, sales or account management.
You will have a creative and proactive approach to all areas of work, with the capability to successfully lead a team by example and collaborate with others. You will also have superb numeracy and planning skills with a flair for social media.
With strong written and verbal communication skills, and a passion for fundraising, community and events, this could be the next rewarding step in your fundraising career.
Why St Joseph’s Hospice?
This is an incredibly exciting time to join the small but mighty fundraising team to really make your mark and be part of setting the fundraising agenda at St Joseph’s. This is a role with scope for development for the right candidate. The Hospice also offers a fantastic range of benefits including:
- Employer contributory pension scheme
- 6 weeks annual leave
- Access to an Employee Assistance Programme
- Free onsite parking
If this sounds like the type of environment that would suit you for the next phase of your career, then get in touch! The role is permanent and full-time. Whilst this role is based at the hospice in Thornton, you will be out and about meeting potential donors and supporters therefore a driving license and access to a vehicle is essential. There is also flexibility to work some of the time at home. The role will involve attendance at events - some of which occur out of hours – in the evenings and at weekends – in the local area.

Hybrid working - one day a month at War on Want’s head office, 44-48 Shepherdess Walk, London N1 7JP; more in-person days required on an ad-hoc basis.
War on Want works to challenge the root causes of poverty, inequality and injustice through partnership with social movements in the Global South and by running hard-hitting campaigns in the UK in support of radical change.
Our economic justice work focuses on developing policies and campaigns that press for meaningful change on issues related to the global economy. We have focused on campaigns for a living wage, and on the protection of workers’ rights in corporate global supply chains, we also work to hold corporations to account by exposing their abuse of the tax system. We believe the global economic system underpins the multiple crises of poverty, inequality, injustice and climate breakdown, rigged to benefit rich elites and profit-driven corporate interests. Our economic justice work is now focused on developing campaigns on tax, trade and debt justice as measures to transform economic policies to redistribute power and wealth for the benefit of the majority.
In recent years, War on Want has increasingly focused on the climate crisis as the most pressing ethical and political issue of our time. It is a crisis that is deeply connected to rising inequality, poverty and injustice, disproportionately impacting the world’s poorest and most marginalised. We have worked closely with allies and in coalitions to draw attention to the need for a radical, interconnected and ambitious transformation, by calling for a radical Global Green New Deal, recognising that policies and proposals to reduce global warming will only work if they are coupled with measures to fix the global economy, to reduce poverty and inequality, and to work towards a just transition for all. We see these crises as intersectional, and directly linked to our work on economic justice.
We are looking for a skilled campaigner with knowledge and experience of working on economic justice issues and on related global justice issues. The role will focus on delivering our ongoing policy and campaigning including its interlinkages with climate justice.
