As our new Legacy Officer, you will be at the heart of some of the most meaningful relationships we build—supporting individuals who want to leave a lasting gift for nature through their Will or in memory of a loved one.
You'll lead on the marketing of legacies and will work with the Director of Fundraising & Communications to nurture relationships with legacy pledgers. You'll be the friendly, compassionate point of contact for legacy enquiries, nurturing conversations with care and confidence. From heartfelt one-to-one conversations to the delivery of inspiring and thoughtful events and tailored communications, you'll help our supporters feel valued and inspired, knowing their gifts will make a difference for wildlife in Cheshire. You'll also work closely with solicitors, executors, and our team to ensure every gift is administered with professionalism and respect.
If you're a natural relationship-builder with experience in supporter care, fundraising or marketing, this is your chance to join a small but fast-paced, purpose-driven Fundraising & Communications team at a critical time for nature.
You'll be joining a charity with bold ambitions and a clear mission to restore nature across Cheshire. Your work will directly support that goal. If you're looking for a role where you can build on what you've achieved and see the difference you make every day, we'd love to hear from you.
This is a part-time role (21 hours per week), and we're happy to discuss increased working hours.
To apply, please email your cover letter and CV in PDF format to Emma Raine no later than midnight on Sunday the 26th of October 2025. Interviews will be held on Tuesday the 4th of November.
