Job description

The Kirkwood help to improve the quality of life for local people against all the odds. When time is short, they help everyone in their care to live well and make the most of every single day. By making the complex simple and focusing on what truly matters, they support families and loved ones to live on - and live well. They are The Kirkwood, and they Support Life.

The Kirkwood Movement is a community of people from across Kirklees and beyond who believe that anyone affected by a life-limiting illness deserves to live the best possible quality of life, for however long they have.

From the moment a patient receives a diagnosis, specialist palliative care is provided every step of the way - whether in the In-Patient Unit and Support & Therapy Centre in Huddersfield, or in patients’ own homes across Kirklees.

We are thrilled to be working with The Kirkwood to recruit their new Head of Fundraising – a pivotal role that will enable them to reach more people by growing and strengthening sustainable income streams to continue their vital services.

Would you like to utilise your fundraising expertise and lead a passionate, ambitious team? If so, we would love to hear from you.

The Role

As Head of Fundraising, you will collaborate closely with the Director of Fundraising and Marketing to develop and deliver The Kirkwood’s new fundraising strategy.

This is a senior, strategic role, working in close partnership with the Business Development Manager, Head of Retail, and Media & Marketing teams.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Leading, supporting and motivating an energetic, passionate and high-performing fundraising team, including Community, Events, In Memory and Individual Giving.
  • Identifying and developing new opportunities, producing business cases, and delivering pilot activity to sustainably grow the fundraising portfolio.
  • Setting, monitoring, analysing and reporting on budgets, and on financial and non-financial performance.
  • Upholding the ethos and values of The Kirkwood, and ensuring compliance with policies, procedures and regulations.

The Person

We are looking for an inspiring leader with significant senior management experience, ideally gained within the charity or voluntary sector. You will have strong knowledge of the charity fundraising landscape, along with relevant legal and regulatory frameworks.

You will be a compassionate and natural leader, able to inspire your team in delivering the new fundraising strategy. A positive, collaborative and passionate professional, you will have the skills to engage stakeholders and work as part of a leadership group.

You should be a strategic, long-term thinker with proven ability to develop and implement organisational and departmental strategy. You must also demonstrate experience in:

  • Developing, monitoring, presenting and evaluating budgets, KPIs and business cases.
  • Designing and delivering supporter journeys to improve donor retention and engagement.

If you thrive in a fast-paced environment, enjoy rising to challenges, and can manage competing demands while delivering results, we would love to hear from you.

Why The Kirkwood?

The Kirkwood is not just a building, an In-Patient Unit, or a place of care. It is a movement of people united by the belief that everyone affected by a life-limiting illness deserves the very best care - care that improves quality of life, for however long that may be.

Together, they support those in their care to live well and make the most of every single day. The Kirkwood Movement is united behind one common purpose: to Support Life.

The Kirkwood has around 250 dedicated employees in both full and part-time roles, and is fortunate to have the support of over 800 committed volunteers. The team live and work by their values:

  • Respectful and Inclusive
  • Passionate and Determined
  • Open and Honest
  • Kind and Compassionate
  • Forward-thinking 
  • Striving for Quality and Excellence

Benefits include:

  • Free on-site parking (where available)
  • High-quality, low-cost meals
  • Complementary therapies
  • Stakeholder pension scheme (NHS pension transferable for current members)
  • Hospice contributory scheme, including death in service benefits
  • Access to occupational health services
  • Childcare voucher scheme
  • Employee Assistance Programme (for employees and immediate family)
  • Enhanced sick pay
  • Enhanced carers’ leave
  • Discounted health cash plans
