What we do is extraordinary.
And we need a Head of Fundraising who understands all of that.
Let’s start with the obvious.
You’ll need a sense of humour for this job.
Because we work with animals and children — and both have a habit of humbling you, daily.
HorseWorld Trust rescues abused and neglected horses and gives them a second chance at a meaningful life. Some of those horses go on to support vulnerable children and young people — including those with SEMH needs, SEND and children in care — through our Discovery – Discover Horses, Discover Yourself™ programme.
What we do is extraordinary.
It is also muddy, unpredictable, emotional, joyful, heartbreaking, funny and deeply human.
About HorseWorld (the real version)
Horses are incredible animals. They’ve carried humans into war; it’s no wonder they can read exactly what a child needs, often before the child knows it themselves.
Sadly, some people still abuse and neglect them. That’s where the HorseWorld hug comes in. With us, horses are safe. They live out all year round, form herds, roll in the mud, escape occasionally (because… horses), and get to live like horses again.
Our 160-acre farm is minutes from Bristol and Bath, but feels like a different world. In winter, photoshoots and tours involve waterproofs and wellies. In summer, it’s an outdoor oasis.
We do serious work — and we also believe in joy:
· Horse Festivals
· Carol services
· Massive corporates on their knees pulling ragwort
We are kind, committed, slightly irreverent, and very proud of what we do.
Why this role exists (the honest bit)
We raise around £1.5m a year against operating costs of around £2.5m.
Fundraising needs to grow — but more importantly, it needs to work better.
This role exists to:
- grow sustainable, controllable income
- improve return on investment (ROI)
- focus on what actually delivers impact
- stop doing things that don’t (even if they’re well-loved)
You won’t be expected to perform miracles.
You will be expected to bring clarity, judgement and leadership — with empathy and humour intact.
The role (what you’ll actually do)
As Head of Fundraising & Communications, you will:
- Sit on the Senior Management Team and report to the CEO
- Lead all fundraising and marketing comms activity
- Take responsibility for income and cost-effectiveness
- Shape strategy, set priorities and make evidence-based decisions
- Personally steward a small number of key major donors and partners
You’ll lead a talented team covering:
· Individual Giving
· Major Donors & Philanthropy
· Corporate Partnerships
· Trusts & Grants
· Digital Content
- Data, CRM & Compliance
You’ll also work closely with our Heads of Equine Welfare and Discovery to fundraise for our work with vulnerable horses & children.
Who this role is for
You’ll probably thrive here if you:
· Are an experienced charity fundraiser who’s seen how things really work
· Understand that “more activity” is not the same as “more impact”
· Care about ROI and relationships
· Can make tough decisions without losing kindness
· Are both proactive and adaptable
· A great communicator and relationship builder
· Are comfortable talking to Trustees one minute and standing in a muddy field the next
· Can laugh when a horse wanders into a carefully planned moment (because it will)
You don’t need to be an equine expert — but you do need to like animals, people, and the beautiful messiness of both.
What we offer
· A genuinely senior SMT role with real authority and Board backing
· Space to think, not just react
· A values-led organisation that tells the truth
· A team that works hard, laughs often and cares deeply
- Horses who will keep you grounded (sometimes literally)
Final thought
This is not a polished, corporate fundraising role.
It is a meaningful one — rooted in rescue, recovery, growth and second chances.
If you want to lead fundraising in a place where the work matters, the people are lovely, the horses are honest, and humour is not optional — we’d love to hear from you.
