*Exciting opportunity* The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity are looking for a Community Fundraising Assistant to join our team. 

The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity has a three-year strategy that aims to significantly grow our income. Along with funding an existing world-class programme of research, treatment and care, we have also launched our largest ever capital appeal to build the Oak Cancer Centre that will provide radical new solutions for the research and treatment of cancer.
This role will focus on supporting community fundraising activity and being the first point of contact for supporter enquiries. Dealing directly with supporters, the role requires an effective communicator and proactive individual who is passionate about fundraising.

This is an exciting opportunity for you to make your mark with an established cultural organisation.  The role is Norton Priory’s first fundraiser post, and is funded by The National Lottery Heritage Fund.  It offers the next career step for an ambitious fundraiser with a desire to create a new fundraising strategy and make a huge different to our organisation.  This post is offered on a fixed term contract basis, to end October 2020.  Extension possible if income targets are met.

Your role:
You will be responsible for developing and launching Norton Priory’s individual giving programmes, legacies and corporate sponsorship schemes.  You will work with the Chief Executive and other colleagues to identify key fundraising opportunities that will enhance the work of the Trust.  Your work will also involve building and maintaining close partnerships with external organisations to maximise fundraising opportunities, and to support the Trust’s vision to build a sustainable fundraising framework.  This will enable the continued development of Norton Priory Museum & Gardens.

You will need to work flexibly, including working outside normal office hours as required to meet the needs of the role and of the Trust.  This will include occasional weekend working and evening working.

About you:
You will be a strong communicator, with excellent negotiation skills, and a good listener.  A motivated self-starter, you will thrive on targets and be driven to deliver against agreed objectives.

You will embrace the work of the Trust, and seek nature synergies with potential supporters and donors to ensure the building of symbiotic relationships with both corporate business and private individuals.

About us:
Norton Priory Museum and Gardens receives 50,000 visitors per year, playing an active part in the local community, and is an independent museum, which is managed by a charitable Trust (Norton Priory Museum Trust Limited).  We are Europe’s largest excavated monastic site, and alongside the stunning museum building, which opened in 2016 following a major rebuilding programme funded by HLF, 42 acres of woodland and a Georgian Walled Garden complete the visitor offer.

About Us

The Cure Parkinson’s Trust (CPT) is the only organisation in the UK solely dedicated to finding a cure for Parkinson’s. We work with funders and institutional partners around the world to initiate and fund fundamental research and ground-breaking clinical trials.

Parkinson’s is a debilitating neurological condition affecting over 145,000 people in the UK and 10 million people worldwide. It is characterised by tremors, rigidity, slowness of movement and many other symptoms.  There is no cure.  The treatment of Parkinson’s has not changed significantly in over 50 years - i.e. the treatment of symptoms only - and some of the side effects of existing symptomatic treatments are as troubling as the condition itself.

CPT believes that a cure is within reach.  Numerous recent scientific advances in the field lead us to the view that it is funding, not science, which is holding up effective treatments that slow, stop or reverse the condition.  Our ground-breaking Linked Clinical Trials (LCT) program is a high-profile example (re-purposing - against Parkinson’s - existing treatments used for other conditions, based on sound biochemical evidence): many trials are underway, but there are many more to fund.

The successful candidate will support our five Visitor Centres based in Essex, Warwickshire, Scotland and Norfolk, ensuring they have the tools and training required to provide excellent donor care and maximise voluntary income generation.

As the post holder it is expected that you will attend networking events to generate community and corporate leads in Norfolk, whilst supporting Visitor Centre teams to do the same in their own communities nationwide. You will also work to develop the Charity’s existing Gifts in Kind scheme.
