Volunteer Fundraising Lead

Global Health Access Trust is looking for a Volunteer Fundraising Lead to help shape and coordinate the Trust’s developing fundraising activity and build sustainable support for its public-benefit work.

This is an opportunity to use fundraising, development, business development or charity income experience to help an international charitable organisation build strong foundations for future growth.

Global Health Access Trust (GHAT) develops, funds and coordinates defined projects that advance health, relieve illness and preserve life, particularly where healthcare access or the systems supporting health are absent, failing or inaccessible.

Our work brings together professional and clinical expertise, human capability, responsible technology, essential infrastructure, trusted local relationships and accountable funding. Projects span areas including healthcare access, health systems, professional networks, responsible AI and health intelligence, research and strategic reform, and humanitarian and war-affected response.

What you could contribute

• Help shape a realistic fundraising approach across trusts and foundations, individuals, companies and institutions
• Coordinate fundraising activity alongside other volunteers and the Trust team
• Help identify appropriate funding opportunities and prospective supporters
• Support the development of clear, professional approaches to potential funders and partners
• Maintain appropriate records of approaches, outcomes and follow-up
• Help ensure fundraising activity reflects GHAT’s charitable purposes, governance standards and ethical approach
• Contribute to building sustainable income capable of supporting longer-term public-benefit projects

Who this could suit

We would particularly welcome people with experience in fundraising, development, charity income generation, philanthropy, business development or related fields.

You should be organised, comfortable communicating with different audiences and able to work professionally and independently. An understanding of ethical fundraising, good governance and responsible stewardship would be valuable.

This opportunity can usually be undertaken remotely and flexibly. GHAT recruits internationally and welcomes relevant experience and perspectives from the UK and elsewhere.

The role is voluntary and unpaid. There is no salary, fee, employment benefit or entitlement to expenses.
