Are you looking for an exciting opportunity that allows you to integrate your passion for nature with your exceptional communication skills? Join us at Europe's largest nature conservation charity and make a real difference as a Fundraiser!
The ideal candidate will be based in the advertised location.

The chosen applicant should be able to reach both Edinburgh and Glasgow within an hour from their home postcode.
About the role
Each day you will use your company van to travel to different venues around your local area, set up an attractive fundraising stand, and spend the day actively engaging with members of the public, spreading awareness about our conservation efforts and generating new RSPB memberships via direct debits.
Don't worry if you're not a wildlife expert yet – we provide comprehensive training to equip you with all the knowledge you need. Plus, you'll enjoy the added perk of a company van, with fuel and parking costs paid for.
You'll have the flexibility to choose a contract between 3 to 5 days per week, and enjoy the stability of a set salary, rather than working on commission. With 34 days of annual leave (including bank holidays) and opportunities for sabbaticals, we value your work-life balance and well-being.
What we need from you:
* A passion for conservation (no prior knowledge required);
* Resilience;
* Ability to work to targets;
* A driver's licence valid for use in the UK;
* Happy to work 3 out of 4 weekends;
* Happy to travel (on average) an hour away from home each day;
* Willingness to work outdoors and independently;
* Fundraising/Sales and Customer Service experience (desirable).
If you're ready to embark on an exciting journey with us and help create a world richer in nature, apply now! You will be asked to upload your CV and complete a short online application form once you select 'apply'.
This role is not eligible for UK Visa Sponsorship - the successful applicant will need to have a pre-existing Right to Work in the UK in order to be offered an employment contract.
