We are looking for an enthusiastic, fun and innovative Events and Community Fundraising Officer who will continue developing the Trust’s events calendar and cultivate long term relationships with our community fundraisers.

The Multiple System Atrophy Trust (MSA Trust) is the UK and Eire’s leading national charity offering vital support to people affected by MSA – a terminal neurodegenerative disease. We are entirely funded through voluntary income, around a third of which comes from Events and Community. Most of our fundraisers are already familiar with our cause, and just need guidance and stewardship to maximise their efforts, ensure they feel appreciated and enable us to retain their support.

• Have experience of supporter care and stewardship in the voluntary sector
• Are looking for a chance to use your creativity and enthusiasm to develop initiatives allowing a good degree of autonomy
• Have an interest in sports and community events
• Are looking for your next step on the ladder and want to learn about the complete supporter journey in a dynamic, friendly and growing charity.

With plenty of scope for personal development through on-the-job learning opportunities as well as more formalised training and development, this role provides a unique opportunity to harness the power of fund and awareness raising to support more people with MSA.

We are a small friendly team at our London office so we are looking for a person who can fit in well and be prepared to go the extra mile.

The role requires some occasional travelling around the UK to our various fundraising events and Support Groups, but own transportation is not needed.

Unicef ensures more of the world’s children are vaccinated, educated and protected than any other organisation. We have done more to influence laws and policies to help protect children than anyone else. We get things done. And we’re not going to stop until the world is a safe place for all our children.

The Data Team is part of the Information function at Unicef UK and provides colleagues with the technology, services and capability to fulfil data-driven activity, primarily in support of fundraising and advocacy.

The Marketing Data Selections Officer is responsible for supplying high quality, timely data for marketing campaigns and provides subject matter expertise on database marketing and data selections to colleagues across Unicef UK.

We particularly welcome applications from black, Asian and minority ethnic candidates, LGBTQ+ candidates, candidates with disabilities, and from men, because we would like to increase the representation of these groups at this level at Unicef UK. We want to do this because we know greater diversity will lead to even greater results for children.

Unicef UK promotes equality, diversity and inclusion in our workplace. We make employment decisions by matching business needs with skills and experience of candidates, irrespective of age, disability (including hidden disabilities), gender, gender identity or gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, or sexual orientation.

We are happy to talk about flexible working, personal growth, and to promote a workplace where you can be yourself and achieve success based only on your merit.

The successful candidate will be required to apply for a criminal records check. A criminal record will not necessarily bar you from working with us. This will depend on the nature of the role and the circumstances of your offences.

We only accept online applications as this saves us money, making more funds available for us to help ensure children’s rights.

If you do not hear from us within 14 days of the closing date, please assume your application has been unsuccessful on this occasion. Please note that we only provide feedback to shortlisted candidates.
