OCD-UK is entering an exciting new chapter as we look ahead to the next phase of our growth. We want to develop, strengthen and future-proof our fundraising income – and that’s where you could come in as our new Fundraising Development Manager.  This is a unique opportunity to lead income generation at a pivotal moment for our charity and to shape how we fund our work in the years ahead, you will expand our ability to generate income from our community fundraisers. 

This will be a challenging but rewarding position within a small friendly and dynamic charity, with clear growth ambitions and a determination to make a real positive impact for children and adults affected by Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder.

You will bring ambition, clarity, ideas and organisation to help generate fundraising income. You will lead on all aspects of fundraising for our mass participation event places, with a focus on our London Marathon places for 2027 and beyond. You will also help to develop new income campaign streams for the charity, including building and mobilising a network of fundraisers, to drive individual giving, sponsorship and fundraising activities.

In addition, you will also lead on preparing small grant bid-writing through persuasive communication with high-quality grant writing to unlock new opportunities to secure funding to help bring charity projects and ideas to life. 

This role isn’t just about processing fundraising applications and writing funding bids from behind a desk. It’s about being a visible, energetic advocate for the OCD-UK community.  You will champion our work as well as supporting other colleagues in their duties where your time allows.  

Volunteer Centre Hackney is a thriving charity (annual income circa £1.1m, with 29 paid staff) providing volunteering infrastructure to the voluntary sector across the City of London and the London borough of Hackney. We support over 1500 residents a year to realise their skills and passions through volunteering and social action, and to share these for the benefit of others. We also provide volunteering resource, and advice and guidance on best practice in volunteer management, to hundreds of charities and community organisations.

Through our specialist programmes, our impact on the lives of residents is huge. We match volunteers to housebound residents to help them engage with communities and leave their homes; we provide long term personalised support to people with mental health conditions and learning disabilities to help them volunteer and find paid jobs; we support patients to deliver hundreds of their own activities and peer support groups at GP practices across City and Hackney; and in partnership with Public Health, we support over 250 Community Health Champions to share vital health messaging with their own diverse communities.  

This is a hands-on and strategic role for an experienced fundraiser who thrives in a small to medium sized charity environment. You will have autonomy to develop a whole new fundraising strategy, utilise diverse fundraising methods, and build and develop new project ideas and partnerships. You will lead on income generation primarily through sourcing and applying to trusts and foundations, and with the potential to build new corporate partnerships, community campaigns and individual giving. You will build authentic relationships with funders and supporters, and together with VCH colleagues, will identify new programme models as ways to generate income. You will contribute to the development and production of compelling stories, evidence and marketing and build and maintain the infrastructure needed to track and achieve progress against annual income targets.

Post holders need to have excellent communication skills, to represent the charity in writing and in person. You must be enthusiastic, self-motivating and confident to work primarily alone, but also able to engage and collaborate with staff from across the organisation to share information and impact evidence to support your role. If you are successful in securing funding there will be the potential to recruit additional support, and for you to become the Head of Fundraising of a small team.
