It is hoped that the successful candidate will attend the April Trust General Management Meeting (scheduled for 9th April 2025), then liaise with the current FAO to gradually assume responsibilities over the summer months ready for November AGM.

Representation to the UK, and fix our broken political system.

This is an exciting and important time to be joining Make Votes Matter. The General Election
in 2024 was the most disproportionate in history; trust in politics is low and people don’t
feel heard by politicians. We believe that Proportional Representation could repair our
broken politics and the majority of the public agrees.

Our ability to deliver our new three-year strategy rests on harnessing the power of
grassroots activists to put pressure on the Government and political parties; we need an
ambitious fundraiser to help fund our strategy. The majority of our income comes from
people who care as deeply about electoral reform as we do, so we are looking for someone
with a particular passion for individual giving and philanthropy.

You will be a core part of the team, working closely with the CEO to deliver ambitious
fundraising targets.

Make Votes Matter is committed to building a culturally and politically diverse team.

Reporting to: Chief Executive
Purpose of role: Develop, manage and implement Make Votes Matter’s fundraising strategy.
