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:
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:
You’ll lead a talented team covering:
· Individual Giving
· Major Donors & Philanthropy
· Corporate Partnerships
· Trusts & Grants
· Digital Content
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.

You will take ownership of fundraising and income generation, ensuring we have the resources to sustain and grow our impact.

If you love connecting people with purpose, this is your chance to shape something extraordinary. Join Rockinghorse and lead a volunteer community that supports children and families when they need it most.
About Rockinghorse Children’s Charity
Rockinghorse Children’s Charity supports sick and disabled children across Sussex. We support babies, children and young people, along with their families, at The Royal Alexandra Children’s Hospital and The Trevor Mann Baby Unit in Brighton and all of the specialist children’s wards and baby units throughout Sussex.
We deliver and fund projects that enable doctors and nurses to do more. All of projects are led by the needs of children and young people and their families – the lifesaving medical equipment, the support for parents and families, the toys for children spending time in hospitals across Sussex, the environments and spaces that help children feel more at home when they are in hospital and additional staff to make sure children get the best possible care when they are unwell.
Originally set up in 1967 by Dr Trevor Mann, we have been supporting children for more than 55 years, and in that time, we have supported nearly a million children and their families. As the official fundraising arm of the Royal Alexandra Children’s Hospital, including the Trevor Mann Baby Unit, we work with the NHS, charity partners and the Sussex community to ensure children can be children no matter now sick they are.

Phyllis Tuckwell is a very special place to work. Our staff make a real difference to the lives of our patients and their loved ones, providing outstanding care at a time that really matters. Our support teams are pivotal in helping deliver our vital services, ensuring ‘every day is precious’ for our patients.
We are shortly opening our new hospice building, creating a modern environment designed around patients, families, and staff. Alongside this, we are investing in our digital capability to better support care, improve efficiency, and strengthen how we work as an organisation.
We are seeking an Information Security Manager to shape how our information security is built into a new environment from the outset, rather than retrofitted later. Whilst good progress has already been made in our cyber security and information governance provision across the organisation, this exciting, new role will take the next step in managing and developing a more structured, consistent, and visible approach, seeking to embed good practice and build confidence.
This is not a purely technical or policy focused role. It will be responsible for ensuring our systems and information are safe, resilient, and used responsibly, helping our teams make secure choices in their day-to-day work, and educating staff to understand what this means in practice. The role will play an integral role in ensuring everything we do, and deliver, is secure by default and will ensure a practical, solutions focused approach to risk, helping teams move forward with confidence, building a positive security culture across the organisation.
This is a key role at an important point for the organisation. It will make a tangible impact across the work of Phyllis Tuckwell, both clinically and operationally.
The role will operate under the strategic direction of the Director of IT, Estates and Digital Transformation, while acting as the organisation’s recognised subject matter expert in cyber security and information security. They will be the trusted authority in this area, supporting teams across the organisation and providing credible assurance to senior leaders.
Key Responsibilities of the Information Security Manager will include:
About the candidate
Candidates should possess a balanced skillset across technical cyber security and governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) combined with the ability to translate this into clear, organisation-wide governance and assurance. They will be comfortable with detail, whilst also providing proportionate, practical oversight at an organisational level. They should demonstrate:
Relevant qualifications or certifications such as CISSP, CISM, or Security+ are helpful.
Whilst a hospice background is not required, applicants should understand the importance of working in a people-focused, regulated environment.
