Join Boaz Trust as our first Head of Fundraising and lead the growth of a passionate, values-driven charity supporting people at risk of homelessness due to their immigration status. Help shape strategy, build relationships, and grow income to expand our impact across Greater Manchester.
At Boaz Trust, we believe everyone deserves a safe place to call home. For over 20 years, we’ve provided accommodation and specialist support to people who are facing homelessness and destitution because of their insecure or unresolved immigration status. Last year we worked with more than 600 people and, thanks to our dedicated support team, since April 2024 alone, 188 individuals now have somewhere safe to stay, instead of having no choice but to sleep outside.
We’re now looking for a strategic, relationship-driven fundraiser to join our senior team and shape a new phase of growth. As our first Head of Fundraising, you’ll play a vital role in transforming strong but reactive income streams into a thriving, sustainable programme that enables us to support more people, more effectively.

Trusts and Foundations fundraising is also well established, with an experienced team member already in post. This new role will focus on strengthening and growing Individual Giving and Church/Community partnerships, both areas with significant potential. You’ll bring vision and strategy to supporter journeys, deepen engagement and stewardship, and explore opportunities in areas like Corporate Giving and Legacy fundraising.
This is a senior leadership role, reporting directly to the CEO and contributing to our wider organisational development. You’ll line manage our Senior Fundraising Officer, with the potential to expand the team as income grows. You’ll also work closely with our Advocacy and Communications Team to ensure supporter communications reflect our values and amplify our impact.
We’re looking for someone with experience in Individual Giving and relationship fundraising, who understands the power of storytelling, data, and connection. You’ll be a collaborative and empathetic leader, able to build trust with colleagues and inspire supporters. You might already be a Head of Fundraising or looking to step into your first senior role - either way, we’ll provide tailored support and professional development to help you succeed.
Above all, you’ll be someone who shares our belief in justice, compassion, and the dignity of every person. If you’re ready to make a lasting difference with and for people seeking sanctuary, we’d love to hear from you.
Our vision is that people who seek safety in the UK are welcomed here and are free to live life in all its fullness.
