You’ll be supported by the Head of Community Fundraising, and work collaboratively across departments to bring plans to life. As a skilled manager, you’ll guide and motivate a dedicated team of fundraisers and volunteers, championing wellbeing and performance.
A solid understanding of fundraising regulations, health and safety, and event management best practices is essential. If you’re ready to make a lasting difference in your community and thrive in a fast-paced, purpose-driven environment, we’d love to hear from you.
