Job description

Are you an inspiring senior fundraising leader who wants to use their skills to help people experience the best possible quality of life, to the end of life?

As the new Head of Fundraising at St Catherine's Hospice, you'll enjoy the best of both worlds: leading and developing a growing team towards high performance, while remaining hands-on in building and nurturing high-value donor relationships.

Salary: £44,341 per annum
Contract: Full Time | 37.5 hours per week
Location: Preston, with hybrid option with up to 2 days homeworking
Benefits: Enjoy 36 days' holiday (including bank holidays), an extra wellbeing day for your birthday, up to 8% employer pension contributions, Blue Light Card discounts, discounted on-site meals, career development opportunities, life insurance, and an employee assistance programme.

Culture: Join a supportive and collaborative team, all located within a scenic working environment.

The Role:

Reporting to the Director of Marketing and Engagement, you will lead, develop and inspire a dedicated fundraising team, creating a high-performance culture that delivers ambitious income targets across a diverse portfolio.

This is a strategic and hands-on leadership role. You will be responsible for developing and delivering the hospice's fundraising strategy, identifying new opportunities for growth, and personally supporting key relationships and fundraising initiatives. You will work closely with senior colleagues, trustees and external stakeholders, providing regular updates and reports to the Board on fundraising performance, opportunities and risks.

About You:

We are seeking a confident and experienced fundraising professional who combines strategic thinking with a practical, hands-on approach. You will be an inspirational leader with a proven ability to deliver income growth, develop high-performing teams and build strong relationships with supporters, partners and senior stakeholders.

You will be comfortable operating both strategically and operationally, with the credibility and communication skills to influence at Board level and represent the hospice externally.

Your Experience

  • Significant senior fundraising experience across multiple income streams, with a strong track record of delivering sustainable income growth
  • Proven ability to lead, motivate, and develop high-performing fundraising teams, building a positive and ambitious culture
  • Demonstrable success in designing and delivering fundraising strategies that achieve measurable results and long-term financial sustainability
  • Strong commercial and financial acumen, including budgeting, income forecasting, performance management, and driving return on investment across fundraising activity
  • Ability to build and maintain strong stakeholder relationships, alongside developing compelling cases for support, funding applications, and donor propositions that inspire giving and generate income
  • Experience of planning and delivering successful fundraising events, with responsibility for volunteer management and awareness of relevant health and safety requirements

Why Join St Catherine's Hospice?

St Catherine's cares for patients and their loved ones across Chorley, Preston and South Ribble who are affected by life-shortening conditions such as cancer, motor neurone disease and heart failure. Through specialist palliative and end-of-life care, delivered both at the hospice and in people's own homes, the organisation helps individuals achieve the best possible quality of life and focus on what matters most to them in the time they have.

A values-led organisation, with care, compassion and commitment at the heart of everything it does, St Catherine's is deeply valued by its local community. This role offers the opportunity to make a lasting impact by leading a talented fundraising team, influencing strategic decision-making and securing the resources needed to ensure exceptional hospice care remains available for those who need it most.
