About us
Christian Aid exists to create a world where everyone can live a full life, free from poverty. We are a global movement of people, churches and local organisations who passionately champion dignity, equality and justice worldwide. We are the changemakers, the peacemakers, the mighty of heart.
We’re committed to building a diverse and inclusive workplace, and recognise the value this brings in forming strong, creative and high performing teams. We welcome applications from all sections of the community, and from those with experience from outside of the voluntary sector. And no, you don’t have to be Christian to work here – we encourage people of all faiths and none to apply. We just ask that everyone lives out our values of dignity, equality, justice and love. We value a good work-life balance, so we’re open to part-time and flexible working. We also offer hybrid working for our office-based colleagues.
About the role
We are seeking an effective and successful Philanthropy professional with a passion for international development, to take a pivotal role in enabling Christian Aid to fight global poverty, inequality and injustice in the year ahead, by supporting us to deliver against our ambitious income targets.

The post holder will manage a portfolio of supporters/potential supporters (primarily major donors but the portfolio also includes trusts and wealth advisors). The portfolio is predominantly based in Scotland but there are also a handful of supporters beyond this geographic focus.
The position will work closely with Scotland team colleagues, and will be part of the Philanthropy team which manages relationships with donors around the UK. The role will report into the Senior Philanthropy Advisor who is based in North England.
About you

You will be able to produce high-quality proposals and reports. You will be well-practised in managing relationships based on trust and integrity and will be highly motivated, proactive and confident in engaging new prospects. Knowledge of international development and church structures would also be very helpful.
If you share our vision and our values, and you are an exceptional results-driven fundraiser who works well independently and as part of a team, we would love to hear rom you.
