Reporting to: Senior Network Fundraising Manager

Location: Primarily on-site – based at our Merseyside Hub (Liverpool, L33 7SA)

Contract: 24-month fixed-term contract

Hours: 35 hours although open to discussing flexible working

Salary: 5NO £30,598-£37,039

Our vision: A UK where “No good food goes to waste”

We are the UK’s national network of charitable food redistributors, made up of 18 independent organisations. Together, we take good quality surplus food from right across the food industry and get it to approximately 8,000 frontline charities and community groups. Every week we provide enough food to create almost a million meals for vulnerable people.

There has never been a more exciting time to join an organisation at the heart of public consciousness. For more information visit our website.

FareShare is an equal opportunity employer, and we welcome applications from all backgrounds and abilities, and as a Disability Confident Employer, we provide reasonable adjustments.

We aim to recruit from a wide variety of backgrounds, not just because it’s the right thing to do, but because it makes our company stronger. If you share our values and our commitment to redistributing surplus food, come join us. 

The role

This is your opportunity to shape something new – with the backing of a national brand and the autonomy to make your mark locally.

FareShare UK runs three regional centres in Merseyside, East Anglia and Southern Central. As our Fundraising & Development Lead (Merseyside), you will grow a local fundraising programme from its infancy, working closely with both the Merseyside site and FareShare UK’s national fundraising team.

This brand new role has been created to sustain, and in time, increase the financial sustainability of our activity in Merseyside. Through your work, you will enable us to test the viability of this regionally-led approach, and put the frameworks in place to scale and replicate the approach as part of a wider business cased rollout.

You’ll initially report into FareShare UK’s Senior Network Fundraising Manager, but will work day-to-day from the Merseyside hub, fully embedded in the local community and local operations - this will involve working closely with the Regional Manager.

This role is advertised as a 24-month fixed-term contract, but there is potential to extend based on results. If extended, the role may move to be managed and embedded locally.

What you’ll be doing

This role is integral to shaping a long-term solution to our fundraising efforts locally. As Fundraising & Development Lead (Merseyside), your focus will be to:

• Build and deliver a fundraising strategy to generate locally fundraised income to bring our activity in Merseyside closer to breakeven in the short-term, as well as having an eye on long-term sustainability and growth.
• Develop a compelling case for support tailored to local funders, businesses and the Merseyside community.
• Build a diverse pipeline and income portfolio, using your knowledge and experience of fundraising within Merseyside to increase funding from across multiple income streams – this could include from trusts, local businesses, events, the local community and major donors.
• Create and manage supporter relationships, providing a positive experience and excellent stewardship, and through doing so, maximising on lifetime value.
• Work collaboratively with FareShare UK’s national fundraising team to ensure efforts complement rather than compete.
• Test and evaluate your work to build the evidence needed to support the scaling and replicating of this approach in other FareShare UK-owned sites.
• Fundraise safely, legally and compliantly in line with regulation and FareShare policies.
• Use existing tools and systems such as Salesforce to keep financial and partnership records up-to-date.
• Undertake training and skills development and adopt a continuous learning approach to your work, particularly in light of these being new roles.

This role is likely to involve meeting with funders, supporters and partners across the region – both on and off-site. The ability to travel when needed would be helpful, but there is flexibility in how this is managed and achieved. 

What you’ll bring to the role

You may not tick every box, and that’s okay.

If you can demonstrate the core competencies, and more importantly, have the drive and passion for the role – we’d still love to hear from you. We’re committed to supporting your development in the areas where you may have less experience.

We’d like to hear from people who have:

• A track record of developing, managing and growing funding partnerships (charity or commercial sector).
• Experience of raising income from at least two of – trusts/ foundations, corporate, major donor, community fundraising, events.

• Excellent communication skills – both written and verbal, and the ability to win hearts and minds, both internally and externally.
• Experience of using data to make informed decisions and spot new opportunities.
• An ability to manage multiple projects and strands of work simultaneously.
• The skills to influence and manage people, including volunteers - building strong internal relationships to deliver results.
• A collaborative mindset and comfortable working with cross-functional teams.

If you have skills and experience in these other areas, we’d love to hear about them, as we believe they’ll help you in the role… but these are a nice-to-haves and not an essential part of our criteria.

• Knowledge of the Merseyside funding landscape.
• Experience of working in a federated or network organisation.
• Experience of working in a dotted line or matrix structure.
• Experience of working in a predominantly volunteer-led organisation.

Benefits

• We expect the role to be primarily based on-site, with local travel and some flexibility for hybrid working
• Whilst we typically appoint towards the bottom of our salary bands, we are open to flexing our approach for the right candidate
• 28 days’ annual leave + Bank Holidays
