About Resources for Autism
Our vision is a society where autistic people can live life as equal citizens in their community. Since our founding in 1997, Resources for Autism has supported autistic people and those who love and care for them. We help over 2,000 beneficiaries and 5,000 family members, providing practical support for those facing physical, social or emotional challenges. In addition to developing resilient parents and resilient children, we work to create resilient services that are aware and inclusive of neuro-divergence.
Working across Greater London and the West Midlands, we are driven by an ethos of radical acceptance of each individual as they are, working within their environment to transform their outcomes. In addition to our core work, we provide high-quality, hands-on training and consultancy around autism.
This is a very exciting time in our organisation’s journey, with a new strategy (launched in June 2022), an incoming and high-profile Chair; and an increasingly prominent and relevant cause. We want to continue to grow our service delivery, and we now want to find an ambitious, open and strategic Head of Fundraising to allow us to support more people and grow our reach. As a charity, we pride ourselves on being flexible, open to new ideas, caring and culturally inclusive.
We hope you will want to join our team.
The Brief
Our Fundraising team enjoys strong, long-term relationships with many trusts and foundations, such as BBC Children in Need, the National Lottery Community Fund and Garfield Weston. We are looking for someone who can strengthen and expand our highly successful trusts and foundations fundraising, support the growth of our corporate fundraising and also build and develop a portfolio of major donors, an income stream that is so far untapped. Working closely with the Senior Leadership Team and Board, you will harness and develop both existing and new supporters, ensuring that donor relationships are sensitively and professionally stewarded.
The Person
This role suits someone who is ambitious, with significant fundraising experience and a desire to take their career to the next level, within a charity that is growing, flexible and open to new ideas. We’re looking for someone who is an excellent communicator, who can build strong relationships at all levels and who can think creatively. Our charity operates at a fantastic pace, and colleagues are incredibly supportive of each other, so we are keen to find someone who will enjoy being part of this environment, and who will work closely with the CEO and Chair to find new ways of securing income.
Most importantly, we are looking for someone who wants to make a real difference to the lives of autistic people, to share in the joys and successes that our team enjoys together each day – and who will be proud to see the real, meaningful impact they’re able to make.
Main Responsibilities
- Work with the Trustees, CEO and wider team to develop our fundraising streams (trust and foundations, corporates and major donors) to make asks, or lay the groundwork for an ask
- Steward and develop relationships with existing supporters and donors (we are already funded by 40 trusts and foundations)
- Research and build relationships with new trusts and foundations, corporates and major donors
- Ensure the case for support continues to be strong, up-to-date and relevant

- Be able to articulate our vision in a clear, passionate and confident way to potential and existing donors and supporters
- Develop and implement a process for gathering new potential funders/donors, ensuring no opportunity for engagement is ignored
- Use and develop our CRM to ensure there is a clear process for recording and managing fundraising activity
- Help to guide and lead the organisation through membership of the Senior Management Team
- Promote and comply with all policies and practices; undertake any other reasonable duties, commensurate with the level of the post
- Maintain client confidentiality, given the role’s access to sensitive information about service-users and their families
Essential Experience and Required Skills
- Track record of trusts and foundations, corporates and major donor fundraising
- Ability to think creatively and strategically about fundraising opportunities
- Excellent, engaging and inspiring writing and speaking skills
- Confidence in working with budgets and able to use them to create a financial story
