Senior fundraising manager jobs

Who We Are

 Our charity was established in 1992, to provide care and support to people in Sussex, living with and affected by HIV. Over the past three decades there have been huge advances in treatment and care for those affected by the virus. People taking effective anti-retroviral medication (ART’s) can live long lives, with HIV becoming undetectable and untransmittable.

Whilst people who are living with HIV can live longer, many develop other physical co-morbidities as they age and many experience social and self-stigma. Our service users are often from marginalised groups, who often experience inter-sectional discrimination and health inequalities. Many of our service users experience socio-economic disadvantage and have multiple and complex needs.

The Sussex Beacon offers a range of services to people who have been living with HIV for decades through to those who are newly diagnosed.  Our services include:

· Community Nurse-led Clinical Service

· Community Outreach Support Services

· Peer Mentoring

· Living Well Exercise Programme

· Day Services and Group Work

In addition to our HIV services, The Sussex Beacon has announced that it is to become a fully inclusive Hospice, providing dedicated Hospice care to the LGBTQ+ community.

The Sussex Beacon has two charity shops in Brighton and an active fundraising team, who help raise the money we need to keep our services running for the people who need them across Sussex.

The Role

This is an exciting time for The Sussex Beacon, as we are about to launch our new 2030 Strategic Plan and move to a new era of delivery, through the evolution of our end of life and palliative care for the LGBTQ+ community.  The Sussex Beacon will be the first Hospice of its kind in the country tackling stigma and health inequalities for those who are most marginalised in our community.

We’re looking for an enthusiastic and experienced Mass Participation Lead to join our Income Generation team. Working alongside the Head of Income, you’ll take the lead on planning, delivering, and growing our portfolio of mass participation events, including some of the UK’s most iconic runs:

• Brighton Half Marathon – proudly owned by The Sussex Beacon
• London Marathon
• Brighton Marathon
• Vitality 10k
• London Landmarks Half Marathon
• Great South Run
• Red Run

In addition, you’ll collaborate with the Head of Income on the development and launch of two exciting new events scheduled for 2026/2027.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead on all aspects of mass participation fundraising events, from recruitment and engagement of participants to event-day logistics and post-event stewardship.
• Develop and implement creative campaigns to maximise participant sign-ups, fundraising income, and supporter retention.
• Build strong relationships with participants, corporate partners, and event organisers to enhance The Sussex Beacon’s presence and reputation.
• Support the Head of Income in the strategic growth of the events programme and delivery of income targets.
• Work collaboratively with other members of the Senior Management team to build your understanding of our work and the needs of people living with HIV, LGBTQ+ end of life and palliative care needs and broader health inequalities in the communities we serve.
• Work collaboratively with our Volunteer Co-ordinator to ensure that events are adequately supported.
• Develop and enhance our existing celebrity/high profile runner engagement.

We particularly welcome applications from black, Asian and minority ethnic candidates, disabled candidates, and candidates with lived experience of HIV, as we would like to increase the representation of these groups at The Sussex Beacon.

We are excited to be recruiting a Grants and Funds Engagement Manager to join our small but ambitious team. Reporting to the Head of Charity, you’ll play a key role in delivering our bold three-year strategy, driving meaningful impact for patients, their families and staff by managing our evolving grants programme.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a growing charity at a crucial stage in its development. As part of our team, you’ll help shape how we fund projects, communicate their impact, and uncover unmet needs that will inform future fundraising appeals and strategic priorities.

We’re looking for someone who is flexible, proactive, and ready to get involved in a variety of tasks. If you thrive in a fast-paced environment and can confidently juggle multiple priorities, we would love to hear from you.

You will oversee our Special Purpose Fund (SPF) portfolio, working closely with staff teams to help shape and deliver high-impact projects, ensuring funds are used effectively and in line with organisational priorities and guidance.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys both strategic thinking and hands-on delivery. You will lead on strengthening our grants processes and systems, and work collaboratively with colleagues across Charity Finance, Fund Advisors, Divisional Directors, and the wider team to ensure funds make a real difference where they are needed most.

A key part of this role involves working in partnership with St George’s Hospital Charity on joint funding opportunities and shared initiatives across our hospital group.

This role will deputise for the Head of Charity when required and represent the Charity across all areas, not limited to Grants. You will be ready to step up and take on broader responsibilities as needed.

You are our lead press contact and will work with local, regional and national media and partner PR teams to amplify the charity’s voice further and generate increased coverage of Bristol & Weston Hospitals Charity (BWHC).

You’ll lead on key marketing activity, including fundraising events, campaigns and appeals, including the annual Christmas campaign.

Central to the role is ensuring we have excellent relationships with our NHS colleagues and hospital staff to enable us to identify storytellers, building on our “one team” approach and delivering impact reporting.
