Fundraising Coordinator

Hope and Homes for Children is looking for a Funding Coordination Officer, who'll play a key supportive role in the Grants Partnerships team and Marketing, Communications and Fundraising (MCF) department, contributing directly to the Grants team income target as well as supporting fundraisers across the department to access compelling information in support of their fundraising.

You will help to drive key cross departmental initiatives including the coordination of restricted funding for our country programmes and the development of proposals and reports for our key projects and thematic work. You will also manage our small and medium trusts and foundations portfolio (including stewardship, reporting and proactively approaching new prospects), and occasionally support Grants team colleagues with reports, proposals and stewardship of our high value relationships.

Fundraising Coordinator Requirements:

To be successful in this role, you will need excellent written and verbal communication skills, a supportive and collaborative approach and a genuine passion for our work. You will have a keen interest in development/child protection work, enjoy the process of compiling narrative and financial information about our projects and have the drive and commitment to deliver against deadlines. You will also be well organised, flexible, self-motivated and able to work autonomously and to thrive within a supportive culture which is solution-orientated and has integrity, courage and excellence at its heart.

In return, we’ll provide you with the chance to have a real impact in a collaborative and ambitious organisation who are proud of what we do and the difference we make, and we will provide the opportunities and guidance to help you to develop and grow.

If you believe every child belongs in a family, then join us as we consign orphanages to history.
