About the Charity

NOAH Enterprise is a charity which seeks to help the most disadvantaged in the local community, providing a practical, empowering and caring service to people who are homeless particularly those who are temporary or entrenched rough sleepers, and those who are marginalised and socially excluded, or have simply fallen into poverty. The consequences of the cost-of-living crisis and the aftermath of the pandemic mean we expect to see increasing numbers of people homeless and rough sleeping, seeking our help. With your help, they can continue to support people who have nowhere else to turn, across Luton, and central Bedfordshire.

This will involve cultivating relationships with various individuals, schools, colleges, religious groups, businesses, and social clubs to encourage participation in NOAH initiatives.

You will collaborate with the Head of Fundraising to create a Community Fundraising strategy that aligns with ambitious fundraising targets. As part of this role, you will also be responsible for monitoring budgets to ensure regulatory compliance.

About you:

You will have experience in fundraising from a professional or voluntary capacity and a desire to develop your career in this area.

You will have strong relationship management experience and be motivated to providing excellent customer/supporter experiences leading to long term, mutually beneficial relationships.
