For families facing tough times, a holiday is a much-needed break from the day to day, as well as giving space and time to breathe, and think differently. Families report feeling happier, creating memories and feeling more confident to face the future. With an estimated 2.2m families in the UK unable to access a break, the need is strong. More funding will help us reach more people – obviously – and this is where you come in.
This role is important in helping us share the short- and long-term impact of our work with a network of established funder relationships. We currently secure around £150k per year from these relationships through a series of small gifts. We’re keen to build on this by ensuring we continue to communicate, engage and apply for funds from these existing relationships, while also looking to develop relationships, and build a pipeline and timeline for new applications.
You’ll help us prepare for more ambitious multi-year funding bits, but with the support of a contracted freelancer who has expertise in this area.
This is a full-time role. We work on a hybrid basis – for Family Holiday Charity this means around 2 days of collaborative working in our London office (near Borough – more later in the pack) mixed with home working.
You’ll have a lot of autonomy and ownership to shape and create this role in line with our strategic ambitions – and in line with yours.
If you’re looking for a fresh challenge, where you can build on an established base rather than having to start from scratch, this could be the role for you!

Street Child, a rapidly growing global children’s charity, are looking to hire an exceptional, experienced individual to help lead our engagement with trust & foundations and other key programme funding opportunities - in the UK and internationally.
Reporting to the Director, Policy & Development, and working closely with colleagues in UK, Europe, USA and global programmes you will help identify and progress major five-, and six- figure funding opportunities for Street Child's work.
Managing existing donor relationships is an important aspect of the role. Our focus, however, is finding and attracting new major funders to help sustain and further drive the growth of Street Child's global programming. This work massively demands a proactive, propositional, and at times a resilient, spirit!
We need an easy learner, who will immerse themselves in, and rapidly absorb, Street Child's work, identity and priority programmes - and can think strategically about how to present them, attractively and ambitiously, to donors.
An analytical mind, to find potential funders through multiple sources; and the imagination and creativity to craft the most relevant approaches, responsive to donors' own priorities and interests, are key.
Strong internal communication and relationship-building skills are important - to understand programme leaders' core funding needs; and to work efficiently and co-operatively with busy programmes staff to build winning proposals.
The ability to write compelling copy is fundamental - as is a passion for Street Child's mission.
A track-record of successfully winning grants is essential. A development/ humanitarian background would be great but is not essential.
This position could be based in Street Child's London HQ, at home, potentially at another Street Child global office - or a combination. Availability/ willingness to travel to field location on occasion is preferred - but not essential.
This is a hugely significant role in the organisation. Our ability to raise match funds, secure resources to seed new initiatives or scale our most important work, is beyond critical - and this role is right at the heart of these challenges. Street Child is a demanding but also immensely rewarding environment.
If you are interested in being part of what we are building here, please apply by sending us your CV and a compelling covering letter explaining why you think you could make an extraordinary impact in this role - ideally ASAP to our recruitment email set out in the attached JD or by Monday 6th June. We are ideally seeking to make a quick appointment so are selecting candidates for assessment and interviews on a rolling basis.
Diversity is important to us at Street Child and so we especially welcome applications from candidates with backgrounds typically under-represented in the sector and/or reflect the communities we seek to serve.
Pre-employment checks will be required as part of our recruitment process in line with our Safeguarding Policy.
Street Child believes that every child deserves the chance to go to school and learn. Our projects focus on a combination of e... Read more

With gene therapy now available on the NHS as treatment for some forms of sight loss and therapies for other forms now at phase 3 clinical trials, we have never been closer to relegating sight loss to the history books. Now is the time to ramp up investment and build stronger partnerships, not rest on our laurels.
As the leading UK charity dedicated to stopping sight loss through pioneering research, Fight for Sight is at the forefront of making the above aim a reality. With a visually-impaired CEO joining us, who will soon be launching our new 5-year strategy, we are putting the lived experience of those with sight loss at the heart of what we do. Off the back of incredible success across our 2017 – 2022 strategy and a near 100% increase in income, we’ve never been better placed for success.
We currently invest over £8 million into 159 research projects across 44 leading universities and hospitals around the UK, funding some of the brightest minds in science. We are determined to create a world that everyone can see, and we have the resources and networks needed to make it happen.
The Role
You will be taking over an established trusts portfolio of c.£1.5m, made up of around 400 trust mailing respondents, 100 small donors. 50 medium donors, and 4 donors providing large strategic gifts. Whilst the programme doesn’t run itself, it is built on solid foundations and has a framework of extremely strong relationships; the programme is primed for growth and we’re excited to meet the person whose passion will help us achieve this.
The last few years has seen us become the first medical research partner of a number of large foundations, and those relationships continue to develop and flourish. We’re able to clearly explain our work and demonstrate the impact it will have on people’s lives. Our ability to engage with these non-traditional donors is a clear sign of the strength of our message.
We are routinely commended for being able to demonstrate our impact and the through-line from cutting-edge research to real-world application, above and beyond that seen from some of the country’s largest medical research charities. We know what we’re doing and we do it well.
Why you should apply
If the 10% non-contributory pension, inclusive and supportive culture, and exciting plans for the future don’t cinch it for you… Then you should join because this is an incredible role for someone who is looking to take the next step in their career; our trust fundraising programme has fantastic foundations and fundamentals, the investment and organisation is in place to facilitate growth and our appetite for change and new ideas is large. In short, if you want to take everything you’ve learned to date and sculpt a trust fundraising programme that is your version of perfect, with the full support of our board and SLT, then this is the place to do it.
WR Fundraising Recruitment is very proud to be working with a leading and motivational children’s’ hospice that is looking to strengthen their fundraising team with an experienced Senior Trusts and Major Donor Manager.
