Join Our Fundraising Team !
At Scripture Union, we’re looking for two experienced and driven fundraisers to join our team. The fundraising team work to a target of around £2m per year, generated from a range of channels and segments. We’re looking for two more people to grow this team as we expand our mission to reveal Jesus to the younger generations in England and Wales.
About the roles
We’re looking for two fundraisers to tackle the following areas:
-
Individual Giving, working to maintain and grow our portfolio of donors giving between £10pa - £1,500 pa each.
-
Fundraising Innovation, coming up with fresh new ideas that will generate more income for the mission that take us beyond our tried and tested fundraising activities.
Between them, the two roles account for 1.8 FTE, and we’re flexible about how that’s allocated. It could be that both roles work 4.5 days a week each, or one full time and the other four days. We’re open to suggestions as we seek the right candidates for the team.
The salary for both roles will be £31,500 - £34,800 per annum for an FTE.
What You'll Do
-
Individual Giving: Grow income from individual donors through the management of campaigns, regular giving and invitations to increase gifts from general individual donors and mid-level donors. Work to acquire and retain new donors and reactivate lapsed donors.
-
Fundraising Innovation: Develop, trial and implement new and innovative approaches to income generation, contributing to our annual target through new strategic ideas. Work with the fundraising team to ensure these activities align with our fundraising strategy and relationships with grant making trusts, major donors and legacy income.

Who We're Looking For: Our Ideal Candidate
Some say that Scripture Union’s supporters are the best in the world. We’re inclined to agree, though we do admit we’re probably biased. We’re looking for two individuals to join our fundraising team who will be committed to championing and supporting our existing donors and extending the invitation to others, and who can bring fresh new approaches to how we generate income.
We think the right people will be
-
Relationship Driven: You work to identify, build and maintain positive long-term relationships with donors, colleagues and contacts.
-
Results Oriented: You set challenging yet realistic goals and objectives and strive to achieve them within an agreed timescale
-
Concerned for Excellence: You drive consistently towards excellence and improvement in your work.

-
Committed to SU’s goals and values: You’re totally behind our values, goals and objectives as we seek to resource and equip the Church to reveal Jesus to the 95.
You’ll have relevant qualifications and/or experience in fundraising, with a demonstrable track record of maintaining and increasing gift income.
As with all our team members, you will also:
-
Be a committed Christian who resonates with Scripture Union's mission and values, actively participating in a local church community.
-
Strive for a strong understanding of the Bible, applying its teachings to your daily life and inspiring others to do the same.

ABOUT TRAIN
TRAIN is a youth work charity based in South Oxfordshire. We support young people aged 10 to 18 in Didcot, Wallingford and the surrounding areas, especially those who are under-served.
Young people in our communities are facing complex challenges. Mental health struggles, pressures at school, family instability and the impact of poverty can leave them feeling isolated or overlooked. Too often, they don’t have access to the right support at the right time. TRAIN exists to change that. We offer trusted relationships with adults outside positions of authority, safe spaces where young people can be themselves, and opportunities to grow in confidence, make positive choices and feel part of their community.
Our vision: every young person should have the opportunities, tools and support they need to create a positive future.
ABOUT THE ROLE
As Fundraising and Communications Coordinator, your main focus will be trusts and foundations: researching opportunities, writing persuasive applications and producing clear reports. You’ll also play a part in growing support from corporates, community fundraising, individual donors and major gifts, helping to build a broader base of income over time.
Alongside this, you’ll lead on communications. That means keeping our website and social channels current, producing supporter newsletters, and sharing our story more widely through PR and campaigns. You’ll help make sure the difference TRAIN makes for young people is seen and understood by funders, partners and the local community.
It’s a hands-on role, well-suited to someone who enjoys writing, building relationships and juggling different projects. You don’t need to be an experienced fundraiser — we’re open to people with transferable skills, whether from corporate, public or third sector backgrounds. What matters most is that you can communicate clearly, organise your workload, and are motivated by making a difference for young people.
You’ll report directly to the CEO and work closely with the rest of the team. This is a part-time role of approximately 30 hours per week, which can be worked flexibly. The role is based in Didcot with hybrid working, but for the right candidate we will consider a fully remote arrangement.
SALARY AND BENEFITS
- Salary: £28,598 - £31,022 FTE (pro-rated, depending on experience)
- Contract: Permanent, part-time, approx. 30 hours per week. We can be flexible on the exact number and when they are worked.
- Annual leave: 25 days plus bank holidays (pro rata)
- Pension: 3% employer contribution
- Flexible working: Hybrid by default, fully remote considered. We’re happy to consider other flexible arrangements such as term-time only and job shares.
- Professional development: Tailored learning and training opportunities
- Wellbeing: Access to an employee assistance programme with mental health and wellbeing support
- Culture: Supportive, collaborative team with regular catch-ups and shared learning
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Fundraising (approx. 80%)
- Pipeline and planning – work with the CEO to keep a clear fundraising plan, with trusts and foundations as the main focus alongside manageable growth in corporates, community, and individual giving.
- Trusts and foundations – research prospects, build a live pipeline, and write strong, tailored bids. Prepare accurate budgets and gather evidence from the team to strengthen proposals.
- Reporting and stewardship – deliver timely reports, thank funders and donors well, and manage renewals and uplift opportunities.
- Relationship development – nurture links with local businesses, community groups and potential major donors. Prepare simple proposals and support fundraising events or activities as needed.
- Systems and compliance – maintain accurate records of applications, deadlines and outcomes. Ensure fundraising activity is compliant with GDPR and charity regulations.
Communications (approx. 20%)
- Supporter communications – produce engaging newsletters, updates and thank-yous that connect donors and partners with TRAIN’s impact.
- Digital presence – update the website and social media channels with accurate, timely content that reflects TRAIN’s work and values.
- PR and profile – share stories with local media, partners and networks. Ensure TRAIN’s messaging is clear, consistent and accessible.
- Community engagement – promote TRAIN’s profile, youth offer, brand and presence in the community.
General
- Work closely with the CEO to align fundraising and comms priorities.
- Collaborate with youth work staff to gather stories, quotes and data that demonstrate TRAIN’s impact.
- Represent TRAIN at meetings and community events.
- Contribute to the life of a small, collaborative team.
ABOUT YOU
We don’t expect you to have a long career in fundraising behind you. What matters most is that you can write clearly and persuasively, build relationships with people, and organise your workload to meet deadlines. If you’ve developed these skills in another sector and are keen to bring them into the charity world, we’d love to hear from you. Just as important, you’ll bring a genuine passion for TRAIN’s mission and a belief in the difference youth work makes.
Essential qualities
- Strong written communication skills: able to produce clear, persuasive bids, reports and updates.
- Good at building relationships, whether with colleagues, partners or supporters.
- Organised and reliable, able to manage multiple deadlines.

- Experience in marketing, PR, or communications (e.g. social media, newsletters, supporter comms).
- Familiarity with CRM or pipeline management tools.
