Family Holiday Association provides much-needed breaks for families coping with some of life’s toughest challenges. Many of the families referred to us are struggling with problems such as long-term illness, bereavement, mental health issues, disability and domestic violence.  

After a heart-breaking year of being unable to deliver any breaks, we’re getting ready to once again support families to experience the positive impact of a break.  And that means ramping up our income activities.

We’re looking for an experienced event and individual giving fundraiser to join our team in an interim capacity to cover maternity leave.

To be successful in this role you’ll have broad experience across individual giving fundraising, and some experience of managing challenge events. The common theme across both of these is supporter experience. We’re looking for someone who is able to build engaging, interconnected, supporter journeys and is supporter focused.

You may have been involved in developing one-off cash campaigns, regular giving activity, payroll giving, community fundraising as well as challenge events.  Your experience should cover cold acquisition (for events and income streams), on-boarding and retaining supporters.

You’ll help us build products and tools to develop our activity portfolio. If you don’t have direct experience of product development, you’ll need to understand the principles and processes we need to look at, to help us build compelling propositions that drive income and engagement.

You will be happy working with words and numbers, so you can analyse information from past campaigns, third party sources, report on performance, and identify areas for improvement and development. You’ll be just as happy picking up the phone and having a chat with supporters, suppliers and colleagues.

We’re a small team, so you’ll need a ‘get stuck in’ hands-on approach. You’ll need to be curious, positive, tenacious and passionate about fundraising and supporter experience. Being flexible and adaptable is important, too. There may be times you are asked to help with activities and projects outside of the normal scope of the role, as is typical in lots of small charities.

There’s lots of potential to make an impact in a short space of time, and help us determine our future plans and strategy for income generation.

The role is currently home-based but when restrictions are lifted and it is safe for us to do so, we expect to return to our office near London Bridge for a few days a week. 

NO AGENCIES, please. 

Please apply with a CV and covering letter outlining your experience and suitability for the role.

We will be shortlisting for this role as applications come in, seeking a start ASAP where possible. Please don’t delay in making your application. There will be a 2 stage interview process, with a short first interview and a longer second interview with a task.
