Actively Interviewing
This organisation is scheduling interviews as applications come in. They're ready to hire as soon as they find the right person. Don't miss your opportunity, apply now!
Have you got what it takes to help St Margaret’s Hospice raise over £10m+ every year? Do you have a passion for people and building relationships to realise vital income? Do you have experience of fundraising or the commercial acumen to know what makes a great charity retail brand? Can you craft a compelling case for support and negotiate multi-year six figure grants?
Join St Margaret’s Hospice as our Director of Income Generation and play a vital role in ensuring fundraising and retail remain central pillars of our new five-year strategy.
What can you expect to be doing?
As a senior leader, you’ll help shape the future of St Margaret’s at a defining moment for the hospice sector, where financial sustainability is essential.
Hospices play an integral role in local communities, and here at St Margaret’s, we pride ourselves on thinking of our income generation activities as an extension of the care and compassion that is core to who we are.
Working closely with your peers within the executive, as well as the Board, you’ll be an ambassador for St Margaret’s, and expected to represent the hospice. You’ll develop and own pivotal relationships both internally and externally, and role model the values of compassion, collaboration and ambition, while holding yourself and others to account so the best interests of St Margaret’s are always met.
What can you expect to be good at?
From legacies to lottery, challenge events to collections, merchandising to retail operations, you’ll know how to raise significant funds, and will be experienced in leading and inspiring teams to achieve their goals.
Ideally, you will have a strong grounding in charity, either as a fundraiser yourself or having worked in charity retail. Alternatively, you may have transferable skills and the drive to learn and apply your knowledge and experience in a hospice setting.
Either way we are looking for an individual who can demonstrate relevant and lived experience, tenacity, curiosity and a hunger to succeed.
We also welcome high performing individuals who are looking for their first director role.
We invite applications from a diverse range of backgrounds and experiences and are committed to helping you thrive. If you're excited about this role but don’t meet every requirement, we still encourage you to apply.
