An exciting moment to join us

YMCA England & Wales is entering one of the most exciting chapters in its fundraising history, launching our ambition to create 10,000 new homes for young people. Working alongside local YMCAs, we will support the development of new accommodation across the federation, helping young people move towards independence.

This role sits at the heart of that ambition.

You will lead the fundraising behind two critical components of the 10,000 Homes programme:
• Securing income from the public to build and sustain a central Centre of Expertise (mobilisation team), supporting local YMCAs to develop and deliver housing projects.
• Raising capital from individual supporters, mid-level donors and major donors to grow a replenishing national fund that provides upfront investment to unlock housing developments across the federation.

At the centre of this is the 10,000 Homes Fund: a bold, housing-focused proposition that offers the public a clear and tangible way to support young people into safe, stable accommodation. You will be responsible for growing this proposition, ensuring it resonates strongly with supporters and inspires giving at all levels.

You will lead an integrated public fundraising approach, bringing together individual giving, mid-level and major donors into one compelling, housing-led narrative. A key part of the role will be translating a complex, federated model into a simple, emotional and compelling case for support that connects with people’s motivations to give.

We’ve established strong early foundations and are now ready to scale. This role offers the opportunity to take a high-potential public fundraising proposition to the next level -expanding its reach, deepening supporter engagement, and unlocking significant new income.

We are looking for someone who is creative, data-driven and passionate about engaging the public to drive meaningful change for young people. We’re looking for someone comfortable working in a federated environment, with the ability to simplify complex ideas into compelling messages for the public.

The role

As Assistant Head of Fundraising (Public Fundraising), you will lead and inspire a team of talented fundraisers, deputising for the Head of Fundraising and taking ownership of our most ambitious programmes:

The 10,000 Homes Fund driving forward our flagship proposition across individual giving, cash appeals and mid-level audiences.

Major Donors shaping the strategy for high-net-worth relationships, new giving circles and development boards.

RoomSponsor, YMCA’s flagship regular giving product, now in its third year of an ambitious growth strategy. You will oversee a unique partnership model across 45 local YMCAs, support the income distribution process, and see first-hand the impact of your work through a programme that directly supports young people with safe accommodation.

Legacies working with the Senior Fundraising Manager and Head of Fundraising to define and grow what is set to become a landmark legacy programme.

This is a hands-on leadership role: you will set direction, manage budgets, develop your team, while also being prepared to step into delivery when it matters most. You will balance strategic oversight with practical execution, ensuring programmes are both ambitious and deliverable.

About you

You are an experienced public fundraising professional with a strong track record in individual giving or direct marketing, alongside a well-developed understanding of major donor fundraising. You know how to bring different disciplines together behind a single proposition and deliver results.

You are an effective and confident leader, able to build, motivate and develop high-performing teams. You create clarity, set high standards, and support others to do their best work, stepping in when needed and leading from the front.

You are at your best when driving a clear proposition forward. You are excited by the opportunity to take a compelling idea and translate it into something that engages the public, inspires generosity and delivers sustainable income.

You are energised by a challenge, comfortable with complexity and working in a federated environment, where success depends on strong relationships and shared ownership. You are skilled at working with partners, whether agencies, internal stakeholders or local YMCAs, and know how to align people around a common goal.

You combine strategic thinking with operational delivery. You are data-driven, using insight and performance to shape your decisions, and confident working with (and occasionally building) financial models to plan, test and scale activity. You bring both creativity and discipline, generating new ideas while ensuring they are grounded, deliverable and effective.

Above all, you are a strong communicator and influencer. You can simplify complex ideas into clear, compelling messages, build confidence with colleagues and stakeholders, and position fundraising as a critical enabler of impact.

Candidates should be highly goal-oriented, resilient in the face of challenges, and capable of balancing competing priorities. We are looking for a collaborative, flexible team player who is aligned with our charitable mission and dedicated to driving positive outcomes.

- Work closely with key journalists in the health, beauty and wellbeing sectors, whilst keeping on top of the news agenda and social trends to spot opportunities that keep SHA front of mind

Achub pawb yw ein gweledigaeth ni. Mae’n bosibl y bydd yn cymryd amser hir i ni gyrraedd yno, ond mae modd atal pobl rhag boddi. Hyd yn oed os bydd un person yn boddi, mae hyn yn dal yn ormod. Rydyn ni i gyd yn gyfrifol am achub bywydau. Rydyn ni i gyd yn gyfrifol am godi arian. Ni sy’n gyfrifol.

Byddwch yn ein helpu i rymuso ein gwirfoddolwyr yn eu gweithgareddau ymgysylltu, gan gynnwys codi arian, creu profiadau ymwelwyr, datblygu ein darpariaeth manwerthu a chwilio am gynulleidfaoedd a chyfleoedd newydd.

I fod yn llwyddiannus, rhaid i chi fod yn byw yn un o’r ardaloedd canlynol: De Cymru (Gŵyr i Sir Fynwy) a Thair Sir yn Lloegr (Swydd Henffordd, Swydd Gaerloyw a Swydd Gaerwrangon).

Dyma eich cyfle chi i gael effaith wirioneddol drwy ddod â phobl at ei gilydd a meithrin cysylltiadau cryf sy'n gyrru ein cenhadaeth o achub bywydau yn ei blaen. Byddwch yn cael eich cysylltu â chymuned yr RNLI yn eich ardal a byddwch yn brif bwynt cyswllt ar gyfer popeth sy'n ymwneud ag ymgysylltu - codi arian, manwerthu a phrofiad ymwelwyr.

Dyma beth fyddwch yn gyfrifol amdano:

• Bod â chysylltiad cryf â chymuned yr RNLI yn eich ardal chi, gan weithredu fel y prif bwynt cyswllt ar gyfer popeth sy'n ymwneud ag ymgysylltu - gan gynnwys codi arian, manwerthu a phrofiad ymwelwyr

• Amdanoch chi

Byddwch yn gyfathrebwr naturiol, yn berson pobl sy'n ffynnu ar feithrin perthnasoedd, yn rhoi egni i dimau, ac yn gwneud i bethau ddigwydd. Byddwch yn strategol ac yn addasadwy, a byddwch yr un mor gyfforddus yn arwain o'r tu blaen ag ydych chi'n gweithio y tu ôl i'r llenni i gael canlyniadau.

Dyma beth fydd angen i chi ei wneud:

Bod yn bresenoldeb hyderus ac ysbrydoledig sy'n gallu ymgysylltu a grymuso amrywiaeth eang o wirfoddolwyr, canghennau, grwpiau, unigolion a busnesau

• Profiad o chwilio am gyfleoedd newydd i wella perfformiad a'u rhoi ar waith
• Profiad o gefnogi a meithrin partneriaethau corfforaethol neu gymunedol
• Mae Cymru'n wlad ddwyieithog, gyda'r Gymraeg a'r Saesneg yn cael eu defnyddio'n rheolaidd. Er nad yw'r gallu i siarad ac ysgrifennu yn Gymraeg yn ofyniad hanfodol ar gyfer y rôl, mae’n hanfodol meddu ar ddealltwriaeth o bwysigrwydd y Gymraeg a'i diwylliant
• Mae angen trwydded yrru ddilys ar gyfer y rôl hon

Sylwch fod y rôl hon yn gofyn am lefel sylweddol o deithio yn rhanbarth dynodedig Cymru, Gogledd Orllewin Lloegr, Gorllewin Canolbarth Lloegr ac Ynys Manaw, ond bydd hefyd yn golygu teithio'n achlysurol i asedau RNLI eraill gan gynnwys ein canolfan gymorth yn Poole ac aros dros nos o bryd i'w gilydd.
