Fundraising Manager
35 hours per week
£35,684 - £39,345 per annum
Yorkshire Wildlife Trust is one of the UK’s fastest growing nature conservation organisations and seeks to appoint an experienced
Fundraising Manager.
We are seeking an experienced Fundraising Manager to drive forward relationship building and income generation across all income
streams, especially Individual Giving including appeals and major donors, Corporates, Trusts & Foundations and Legacies.
You will collaborate across the Trust to develop innovative and compelling funding proposals, delivering excellent stewardship to
existing donors, and identifying, researching and engaging new prospects. You will ensure continuous improvement and innovation
and an appropriate balance of fundraising activity across all streams, evaluating new ideas for income generation and strategies
for implementation.
Working closely with the Director of Fundraising and Engagement you will develop the Fundraising Strategy, and as a member of the
Extended Leadership Team, will be the lead for driving forward sustainable fundraising activity in collaboration with colleagues.
A compelling and engaging communicator, you’ll be adept at managing a portfolio of donors at different stages – from prospecting
and cultivation through to ask, stewardship and retention, working at all levels of the Trust to achieve ambitious fundraising
targets.
You must have substantial experience working in a senior fundraising position with a natural talent for building positive
relationships both internally and externally, developing a fundraising team and growing a mixed fundraising portfolio. If you want
to make difference for Yorkshire’s wildlife and wild places and can demonstrate a successful track record in fundraising, then
we’d love to hear from you.
How to apply:
Please submit an up-to-date CV and supporting statement (of no more than 3 sides of A4) outlining how your skills, experience and
knowledge are relevant to the role. When writing your supporting statement, please refer to the person specification within the
job description. Ideally, your CV and supporting statement should be in an editable format, such as Word, so we can anonymise your
documents prior to the short-listing process. Please DO NOT include any personal details (name, address etc) on your supporting
statement.
Closing date: midnight Sunday 12th May 2024
Interview date: Thursday 30th May 2024
Please note that applications received after the closing deadline may not be considered. The Trust regrets that it is unable to
give feedback on unsuccessful applications.
We are committed to creating a Movement that recognises and truly values individual differences and identities. We value diversity
and are committed to creating an inclusive culture where everyone is able to be themselves and to reach their full potential. We
want our people to flourish, just like nature.
