But we're only just getting started.
As we launch our new organisational strategy and celebrate our 50th anniversary, we're entering an exciting new chapter—one that will see us grow our impact, strengthen lifelong relationships with athletes and supporters, and build one of the UK's most engaged sporting communities.
We're looking for an ambitious and experienced fundraising leader to help make that happen.
Our Vision
From potential to personal best – whatever your story.
We want a future where talented athletes can pursue their ambitions, whatever their background, circumstances or income.
A future where talent is not lost because life gets in the way, and where support comes early, consistently and without conditions.
Our Mission
SportsAid exists to champion and support the next generation of athletes to fulfil their potential in sport and in life.
We invest early. We back ambition. We bring together partners, supporters and alumni to provide financial help, trusted guidance and belief—particularly at the moments when staying in sport becomes hardest.

Whether it's launching new fundraising products, growing challenge events, building partnerships with schools, clubs and communities, or developing innovative supporter journeys, you'll have the freedom to build something with lasting impact.
About You
You're someone who enjoys creating as much as delivering.
You combine strategic thinking with a practical, hands-on approach and know that exceptional fundraising is built on exceptional relationships.
You may currently be leading community fundraising, supporter engagement or individual giving within a charity and be looking for the opportunity to shape a programme with genuine national potential.
You'll bring:
· Significant experience developing successful community fundraising or supporter engagement programmes.
· A track record of growing sustainable income and building long-term supporter relationships.
· Experience leading people, developing strategy and delivering results.

As we celebrate our 50th anniversary, we're investing in ambitious plans to expand our fundraising, strengthen lifelong relationships with athletes and supporters, and increase our impact across the UK.
You'll join an ambitious, collaborative and values-led organisation with an engaged Board, a supportive leadership team and colleagues who genuinely care about our mission.
