Greyhound Trust is looking for its first-ever Individual Giving Officer — a pivotal role in our growing Income Generation & Engagement team. This is a chance to shape, grow, and lead our individual giving programme from the ground up, helping us care for and home more greyhounds across the UK.

About the Greyhound Trust

For over 50 years, Greyhound Trust has supported greyhounds transitioning from racing into loving homes where they can thrive. Each year, with an annual income of around £4.5m, we home thousands of dogs, relying on a passionate network of staff, branches, and volunteers.

The world is changing, and so is the way people engage with causes they care about. We are now looking to grow and diversify our individual giving, building long-term relationships with supporters who share our commitment to the welfare of greyhounds. This is your chance to play a key role in shaping our strategy, delivering creative campaigns, and helping secure the financial foundation for the Trust’s future.

The Role

Reporting to the Head of Income Generation and Engagement, you will be responsible for:

• Creating, delivering, and evaluating our Individual Giving
• Building a diverse and sustainable portfolio of individual giving income streams, including regular giving, appeals, raffle, lottery, digital fundraising, mid-level giving, and legacy gifts.
• Planning and delivering multi-channel campaigns that integrate with marketing, communications, and retail initiatives.
• Using data and insight to drive performance, monitor results, and develop strong cases for support.
• Supporting branches and volunteers in delivering individual giving initiatives.
• Developing supporter journeys that encourage loyalty, growth, and long-term engagement.
• Ensuring all activities comply with fundraising legislation, best practice, and data protection law.

This is a hands-on role, that will allow you to take ownership of your programme while collaborating across the Trust to deliver impactful campaigns and initiatives.

Is this role right for you?

This role will suit you if you are an ambitious, hands-on fundraiser who thrives in a small, collaborative team where everyone is invested in the success of the whole organisation. You enjoy taking ownership, sharing ideas, and seeing things through to delivery, and you value open communication, mutual support, and a culture where colleagues are trusted to innovate and experiment.

You are likely to thrive if you enjoy balancing independent responsibility with teamwork, and if you are motivated by making a tangible difference rather than simply delivering outputs. You are curious, thoughtful, and practical, and you are happy to contribute beyond your immediate remit to help the organisation succeed.

Why join us?

• Be part of a compact, passionate, and close-knit team.
• Lead the development of the first dedicated individual giving programme in the Trust’s history.
• Work in a medium-sized, agile charity with a strong sense of purpose and financial stability.
• Play a key role in growing support and enabling more greyhounds to be cared for and rehomed across the UK.

Ref No: 1076

We are delighted to share an exciting opportunity to join our Income Generation team in a newly created Legacies and In Memory Fundraiser role.

About the Role:

As Legacy and In-Memory Fundraiser, you will work as part of the Individual Giving and Legacy team, responsible for the development and implementation of a multi-year Legacy and In-Memory strategy to grow Ty Hafan’s legacy pledger and in memory giving pool.

This is a new role focusing on raising awareness about gifts in Wills and in memory giving, both externally to supporters and members of public, and internally to staff and volunteers

This is a wonderful opportunity to build on an already strong and successful programme; the charity currently receives over £1.5 million each year from legacy income, alongside a strong pipeline of enquirers and pledgers. In-memory giving is also a key area we wish to further develop to maximise new opportunities for sustainable growth and supporter engagement.

Tŷ Hafan operates a hybrid working model, and the post holder will be required to work on site a minimum of 2 days per week.

About you:

You’re an experienced fundraiser, relationship‑building or supporter engagement professional who understands the power of strong relationships as well as effective campaigns. You know how to create meaningful supporter experiences and can also plan and deliver high‑quality fundraising and marketing activity across multiple channels, using insight, evidence and creativity to shape what works.

You naturally build warm, trust‑based relationships with people - supporters, volunteers, pledgers, enquirers and retail colleagues and you understand how to tailor communication to different audiences with clarity and care. You’re equally comfortable managing projects, suppliers and budgets, keeping everything on track and to deadline, and you use data intelligently to improve future work.

You thrive working collaboratively across a charity, bringing strong communication skills and a keen eye for detail. Most importantly, you’re motivated by making a genuine difference to children and families accessing hospice care.

You’ll need to be flexible, as some evenings and weekends will be part of the role to fit around the needs of our supporters.

Our employee benefits:

• Holiday entitlement of 30 days (rising to 32 days with service) plus Bank Holidays.
• Group Personal Pension Scheme with an employer contribution of 5%.
• Life assurance- death in service benefit.
• Wellbeing support - employee assistance program, which provides a range of free services including counselling, financial and legal support.
• Unlimited access to a 24/7 online GP as well as a range of other health experts.
• Healthcare Cash Plan – claim back the cost for appointments and treatment such as dental, optical or physio.
• Cycle to work scheme.
• Technology, mobile phone and will writing schemes.
• Discounted gym membership and shopping discounts.
• Hybrid working and when onsite free secured parking.

Ty Hafan’s ambition is that when a child’s life will be short, no family should have to live it on their own. Sadly, we know that thousands of families in Wales are struggling alone through the fear, exhaustion and uncertainty that comes with caring for a child whose life will be short. We believe that no family should have to live this on their own and we are determined to walk alongside every family through life, death and beyond.

At Tŷ Hafan we are experts at caring for children with life-shortening conditions and our services support families in our hospice, in community settings, local hospitals and in families’ homes. We understand that the needs of each child and their family are unique and we know that caring for a child with a life-shortening condition is often extremely demanding. Our aim is to make sure that no one doing this is alone. Our colleagues, volunteers and supporters are crucial in the delivery of our ambition – we know that everyone plays a huge part in making sure that no family faces their child’s short life alone.

Our Vision: A Wales where every child with a life-shortening condition lives a fulfilling life, supported with the compassion and specialist care they and their family need.

Our Purpose: No family should have to face the unimaginable loss of their child alone. With children and families at the heart of all we do, we provide free care and support in our hospice and in the community, offering a lifeline throughout the child’s short life, at end of life, through bereavement and beyond.​

Our Values: At Tŷ Hafan we make a difference by living our values: Demonstrating Compassion, Providing Excellent Service, Working Together and Taking Ownership.
