At The Air Ambulance Service, our mission is nothing short of life-saving. We operate two vital services: Helicopter Emergency Medical Services (HEMS) and the Children’s Air Ambulance, providing specialist paediatric transfers across the UK. Every mission is made possible by the dedication of our expert pilots, doctors, and paramedics — and entirely funded by the generosity of our supporters.

Our services don’t draw on NHS funding. Instead, we operate alongside it, enabling more lives to be saved, more families to stay together, and more futures to be protected. And now, we’re looking for a Strategic Individual Giving Manager to help us expand this critical mission.

The Role

We’re seeking a strategic and inspirational Individual Giving leader to take ownership of a thriving programme and elevate it to new heights. You will drive the strategy for a £12m+ programme, lead a passionate team, and oversee campaigns including lottery, raffles, cash appeals, and supporter acquisition.

With a strong emphasis on supporter retention, journey design, and lifetime value, you’ll shape and deliver a growth-focused strategy that secures sustainable income and deepens supporter engagement.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and deliver the Individual Giving Strategy and budget, targeting growth in net income.
• Lead and support a small but high-performing team to deliver inspirational campaigns.
• Manage and evolve acquisition and stewardship campaigns to expand and retain the supporter base.
• Use insight, segmentation, and innovation to drive campaign performance and supporter satisfaction.
• Oversee campaign analytics, reporting, forecasting, and budget management.
• Collaborate across teams to maximise impact and ensure a joined-up supporter experience.
• Contribute to CRM enhancements to enable a unified, insight-led supporter view.
• Ensure compliance with all legal, ethical, and internal governance standards.

What We’re Looking For

• Proven success in creating and implementing high-performing Individual Giving strategies.
• Experience managing large-scale acquisition and retention campaigns across digital and offline channels.
• A data-driven mindset, comfortable with metrics, segmentation, and budget forecasting.
• Strong understanding of CRM systems and fundraising technologies.
• Natural leadership skills — someone who motivates, supports, and brings out the best in their team.
• Creative, collaborative, and proactive with a strong ability to manage multiple priorities.
• A passion for supporter experience and building long-term, meaningful relationships.

This role is subject to a Basic DBS check.

Why Join Us?

At TAAS, you’ll find more than just a job. You’ll be part of a compassionate, purpose-led team making a real difference. We’re proud to be an inclusive employer, committed to diversity, safeguarding, and supporting the wellbeing of our staff, patients, supporters, and volunteers.
