SignHealth are a passionate and unique deaf-led charity, committed to creating a future where there are no barriers to good health and well-being for deaf people.
Are you a trust fundraising professional looking for your next fully-remote opportunity?
We are looking for an excellent fundraising manager to grow our income from trusts, foundations and corporates.
We have a well established trusts fundraising programme – with an annual target this year of £780,000. We’re looking for someone who understands the importance of relationship-building to maintain that trusts income in the current funding landscape.
This role is perfect for someone who is confident in all aspects of trust fundraising, from codeveloping cases for support with operational teams through to prospect research and reporting. In this role, you’ll own funding opportunities from concept through to impact reporting.
You’ll also take responsibility for our corporate relationships and stewardship. This income stream is in it’s infancy. That means you’ll get the chance to shape our approach to maximise opportunities. The target for corporates this year is £60,000 and we already have some support from partners including Royal Mail and ITCH Media.
If you’re looking for a new career step where you can really make a difference – come and join SignHealth’s passionate fundraising team!
Our remote-working approach
A high proportion of your work will be performed from home. Our team is spread out across the UK, so we welcome your application – wherever you are based. You will be required to attend meetings and events outside of your home as required. These are generally once every quarter – and we cover travel expenses.
Our team may be remote, but we are well connected. You’d be joining a dynamic fundraising team of eight people – who love keeping in touch and collaborating. You can expect weekly check-in meetings with colleagues, quarterly in-person team meetings and lots of opportunities to connect with other members of the team through your day-to-day work.
