Trekstock is committed to building an inclusive team and welcomes applications from people of all backgrounds and experiences.
To provide life-changing programmes, tailored support and expert guidance – all designed to reach every single person who needs us, wherever they are.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
Every day, firefighters across the UK run towards the things most of us run from. The Fire Fighters Charity exists to support them and the people they love, when they need it most.
Now they're looking for someone to help grow the income that makes that possible.
This is a rare one.
Face to face fundraising at the Fire Fighters Charity isn't a tired legacy channel, it's a programme that's been rebuilt, is already performing strongly, and is seen as central to the charity's future. The in-house team works directly with fire and rescue services across the country. A public-facing agency programme runs alongside it. Both are growing. Both need stronger leadership.
That's where you come in.
As Face to Face Manager, you won't just be keeping the plates spinning. You'll be shaping strategy, building business cases, improving data and reporting, managing agencies and an in-house team, and helping take this programme to the next level. You'll have direct access to the firefighters themselves, whose stories are among the most compelling anywhere in the charity sector.
What you'll bring:
A solid grounding or at least a strong working knowledge in face to face or dialogue fundraising, whether from the charity side or an agency background. Strong data skills and confidence with KPIs and reporting. The strategic instinct to see the bigger picture, not just the next campaign. And the personality to thrive in a remote, relationship-driven role where no two weeks look the same.
Experience with Salesforce or a similar CRM is a plus. A solutions-focused mindset is a must.
Why it matters:
Over 10,000 people from the UK fire and rescue community were supported last year. The charity has 45,000+ regular givers. Individual giving income already exceeds £4m and F2F has significant room to grow. The person who takes this role will be a key part of making that happen.
We offer specialist, lifelong support for members of the UK fire services community, empowering individuals to live happier and healthier lives
