About Charity Right
We are a focused and passionate international food charity on a mission to free people from the devastating effects of hunger. Since our founding, we have provided over 40 million meals across 7 countries, serving those who need it most with dignity and care.
Our Mission

About the Role

While the department’s primary focus is income growth through challenge events and corporate partnerships, the role also includes oversight of a small number of legacy community events and relationships ensuring continuity and reputational stewardship.
Key Responsibilities:
Strategic Leadership & Department Building
- Develop and lead the overall strategy for the Fundraising & Events department in line with the organisation’s income growth objectives.
- Design and build a departmental structure capable of delivering scalable fundraising through events and partnerships.

- Provide leadership and oversight of event planning, delivery, and evaluation — ensuring the team has the tools and capabilities to execute effectively.
- Identify and guide strategic partnerships with external groups and communities that can support participant growth and event reach.
Corporate Fundraising
- Design and implement a new corporate fundraising strategy
- Lead the identification and prioritisation of strategic corporate opportunities.
- Guide the creation of partnership models, engagement materials, and stewardship plans, supporting the team in execution.
- Develop the necessary infrastructure (e.g. pipeline management, prospecting systems) for long-term corporate fundraising success.
Major Donor Support
- Act as a senior partner to the CEO in managing and stewarding major donors.
- Ensure the department provides the research, briefing, and coordination required to support a best-in-class major donor experience.
Legacy Community Fundraising
- Provide oversight and continuity for a limited number of legacy community events, ensuring they are delivered with appropriate resource and quality.
- Work with the Fundraising & Events Manager to assess the future viability of these events and how they may integrate with or exit from the broader fundraising strategy.
- Maintain key relationships with mosque and school partners to preserve goodwill and support transitional planning.
Team Leadership
- Line manage the Fundraising & Events Manager, providing coaching, strategic direction, and performance support.
- Ensure the team structure remains fit for purpose as event formats, income goals, and capacity evolve.
- Delegate operational oversight of individual events and activities while maintaining accountability for departmental outcomes.
Cross-Organisational Leadership
- Represent fundraising and events at the senior leadership level, contributing to organisational strategy and decision-making.
- Foster a culture of collaboration and continuous improvement across teams.
- Uphold high standards of integrity, professionalism, and alignment with the charity’s values and mission.
Essential Skills and Experience
- Significant experience in a senior fundraising or income generation role, including designing and delivering strategy at a departmental level.
- Strong track record of building and leading high-performing teams.
- Experience growing and managing challenge events or mass participation programmes, either directly or through team leadership.
- Proven ability to develop income streams, including events and corporate fundraising, from inception to sustainability.
- Commercially minded, with strong strategic planning and budget management skills.
- Excellent relationship-building skills and comfort engaging at senior/executive levels.
- High levels of initiative, resilience, and the ability to lead in a remote-first environment.
Desirable
- Experience supporting major donor programmes or working in close partnership with a CEO or Director-level fundraiser.
- Familiarity with charity CRMs and performance reporting tools.
- Experience working within a faith-informed or values-driven organisation.
Working Culture:
We are a remote-first organisation. This role offers flexibility in working hours and location, with occasional UK travel required for key events and team meetings. You’ll be part of a purpose-driven leadership team committed to creativity, integrity, and delivering real-world impact.
Employment Type: Permanent, Full-Time
Location: Remote Working
Reports to: CEO
Salary: £48,000 – £54,000, dependent on experience
We are on a mission to end child hunger - one school meal at a time. Hunger doesn’t just mean an empty stomach. It keeps children out of school.
