StandOut is a growing charity, entirely funded by charitable donations. As Fundraising Officer (Trusts) you will be working alongside the Fundraising and Development Manager to ensure we have the necessary funding needed to navigate the next stage of our development, consisting of an ambitious strategy and plan for growth over the next two years.

You will be self-motivated and proactive as you support the development of our approach to fundraising through trusts and foundations. You will identify new opportunities, write compelling proposals and drive ongoing engagement to increase our income.

Our aim is to reach a sustainable income of c. £1 million within the next three years, enabling our coaching team to work with more participants preparing for release, empowering them to realise their potential. Approximately 70% of our income is from trusts and foundations and we anticipate this will continue for the foreseeable future. We have a strong base of funders from which to work, and this role is intended to build on those relationships and develop new ones. This will ensure we have long term, sustainable funding for the future.
