Job description

Join Rays of Sunshine at an exciting stage of growth and help create unforgettable supporter experiences that bring joy and hope to seriously ill children.

We’re looking for an organised, proactive and people-focused Public Fundraising Executive (Community & Challenge Events) to join our ambitious Fundraising team and help support, develop and grow our Challenge Events programme, alongside delivering Community Fundraising activity.

This is a brilliant opportunity for someone who loves working with people, enjoys making things happen and wants to see the direct impact of their work.

With an initial focus on our expanded London Marathon programme, you’ll help recruit, onboard and support runners and challenge event participants, ensuring they feel motivated, informed and part of Team Sunshine throughout their fundraising journey.

You’ll also support the development and delivery of our wider Challenge Events portfolio, helping us strengthen existing events, explore new opportunities and grow participation and income across a varied programme of third-party and supporter-led events. You’ll work closely with colleagues and supporters to ensure each event is well planned, well promoted and delivers a brilliant experience from sign-up through to event day and beyond.

Alongside this, you’ll support our wider Community Fundraising programme, building relationships with individuals, wish families, schools, groups and local organisations, and helping them make the most of their fundraising.

You’ll play a hands-on role in:

  • supporting, developing and growing our Challenge Events programme
  • delivering outstanding supporter care and stewardship
  • recruiting and supporting challenge event participants
  • helping plan and deliver the London Marathon and other events
  • building strong relationships with community fundraisers
  • coordinating communications, materials, volunteers and event activity
  • monitoring fundraising progress and helping supporters achieve their goals
  • keeping supporter, event and income records accurate and up to date
  • identifying opportunities for supporters to stay involved with Rays of Sunshine

We’re looking for someone with experience in fundraising, events, supporter care, community engagement, customer service or another people-focused role.

You’ll be highly organised, confident communicating with a wide range of people and comfortable managing multiple priorities. Most importantly, you’ll genuinely care about giving supporters a fantastic experience and helping them feel connected to the difference their fundraising makes.

Experience in Community or Challenge Events fundraising, particularly the London Marathon or another large-scale event, would be an advantage.

Why join Rays of Sunshine?

Rays of Sunshine exists to brighten the lives of seriously ill children and young people across the UK through our Sunshine in Hospitals programme, life-changing wishes and Wish Community.

We’re also incredibly proud to have been recognised as one of The Sunday Times Best Places to Work 2026.

Our latest employee survey found:

  • 100% of colleagues are proud to work for Rays of Sunshine
  • 99% say they do something worthwhile through their role
  • 96% overall employee engagement
  • 98% would recommend Rays of Sunshine as a great place to work

You’ll be joining a supportive, positive and values-led team where kindness, connection, empowerment, integrity and joy are at the heart of everything we do.
