ORGANISATION: Crann
POSITION: Head of Fundraising
CONTRACT: Full-time, permanent role.
SALARY: €82,500
LOCATION: This role is based at the Crann Centre in Ovens, County Cork. There is an opportunity for hybrid working with the SMT currently working 1 day from home.
BACKGROUND
Crann supports children, adults and families living with neuro-physical disabilities across Munster. Through a community-based, family-centred approach, Crann delivers specialist services that focus on health, wellbeing and participation across the lifespan. The organisation currently supports over 800 families and works closely with individuals, carers and professionals to address the real and practical challenges faced by families living with lifelong disability.
Since commencing services in 2019, Crann has grown steadily in both scale and ambition. The organisation is now entering a new phase focused on long-term sustainability, evidence-informed practice and strengthening its ability to deliver services and influence how disability supports are planned and delivered.
ABOUT THE ROLE
Crann is now seeking to appoint a Head of Fundraising, a senior leadership role responsible for developing and leading a sustainable fundraising function to support the organisation’s mission and future growth. This is a newly created role and represents a shift from organically grown, CEO-led fundraising to a more structured and strategic approach that supports scale, complexity and long-term financial sustainability.
Reporting to the CEO and sitting on the Senior Management Team, the Head of Fundraising will be responsible for setting fundraising strategy, translating it into clear operational plans, and ensuring the systems, structures and ways of working are in place to deliver consistent and diversified income. The role will involve leading and developing a small fundraising team, strengthening capability, clarity and accountability across the function.
In addition to building the fundraising function, the Head of Fundraising will personally manage a portfolio of key donor relationships and income streams, working directly with funders, donors, partners and stakeholders. The role will also contribute to the organisation’s longer-term ambitions, including preparing for future capital fundraising and supporting deeper engagement from senior leaders and the Board in fundraising activity.
If you’re a senior fundraising leader with experience building sustainable fundraising functions and managing key donor relationships, we’d love to hear from you.
