Are you a fundraiser looking for your next challenge working for an international charity? Yes? Then we want to hear from you.

As the Community Fundraiser at JDRF you will be joining an international charity leading the way in type 1 diabetes research.

You will steward third party supporters in the Midlands, thanking them for their hard work, offering help with their fundraising endeavours, and strengthening existing relationships, and creating new ones. You’ll also identify and develop corporate partnerships across the region.

You will be a team player who enjoys working within a small but busy team, have superb written and verbal communication skills and be digitally literate and skilled at using various social media channels. You’ll have excellent creative, time management and planning skills.

Our supporters range from adults with type 1, to parents of children recently diagnosed, and more long term supporters who have lived with type 1 diabetes in their lives a while. Once they have the connection to type 1, they can become lifelong supporters, so your role is important to keep them involved, supported and part of the JDRF family.

Ideally you will have previous experience of fundraising, organising events or working in a sales and marketing environment.

As an employer we offer you:

• A strong, positive and friendly culture

• give support and a voice to people with type 1 and their families

We are an ambitious and changing organisation.  Be part of the change and help find a cure for type 1 diabetes.  We’d love to hear from you.

Our organisation campaigns and provides services to ensure people can enjoy being independent, financially secure, healthy, active and connected in older age.

It’s an incredibly exciting time to join Independent Age and help make an impact on the lives of older people.

As people age, they are often let down by the systems in place to support them. Whether they struggle to manage multiple medications, live with undiagnosed conditions, or don’t receive treatment when they need it, older people and their families continually miss out on essential support when they need it most.

At Independent Age we campaign to ensure that the systems that people rely on as they grow older are supportive and enabling so that no-one feels ignored, isolated and marginalized.

The Legacy Giving Manager will work closely with the Head of Public Fundraising and the Senior Individual Giving Manager to deliver the legacy program. They will deliver an exceptional supporter experience for current and prospective legacy supporters with a focus on securing strategic long term support by building a robust, sustainable pipeline of legacy pledges.
