Fundraiser

We are currently looking to recruit a Fundraiser.

Hope UK has seen significant opportunities and challenges over the past few years and is seeking to develop its fundraising activities and improve its regular giving so that even more young people can benefit from our work.

Role Description:
This is a senior role in Hope UK. The successful candidate will be building on the work developed over the last seven years by our current Fundraiser. As Fundraiser, you will have responsibility to raise the money needed for the organisation to continue to grow. In particular, we have identified the need to significantly increase the number of committed individual givers to Hope UK, while maintaining and growing the income from trusts, companies and other sources. Raising the profile of Hope UK within the church will be a key part of this role, as well as networking with local businesses. You will be responsible for developing and implementing a fundraising strategy. You will have admin support, and you may develop ways for volunteers to help you. It is likely that this role will involve some travelling as well as some evening and weekend work. As the staff team is small, everyone gets involved with other activities as the need arises and to support one another.
