We're looking for an experienced fundraiser who can work alone and confidently to shape and grow our fundraising income.
At Age UK West Sussex, Brighton & Hove (AUKWSBH), we're proud of the difference we make but we know we can't stand still. With an ageing population and increasing demand for our services, we're looking for a highly experienced Fundraiser Manager to help us grow our voluntary income and deepen our impact even further.
This is a pivotal role, leading the development and delivery of a sustainable fundraising strategy that supports our mission to help people love later life.

* Be an exceptional storyteller and writer, who can translate our impact into powerful cases for support across applications, campaigns and donor appeals.
* Shape the future of fundraising at AUKWSBH, advising on priorities and helping to grow the team.
What You'll Bring
* Knowledge and expertise in all areas of raising voluntary income, knowing where to spend time and energy for an organisation of our size and location.
* Confidence and compliance of fundraising best practice, fundraising governance and law.
* The ability to work independently, with the scope and ambition to grow the fundraising function and resources over time, including the possibility of line managing staff in future.
What We'll Offer
* An opportunity to create lasting impact across a well-loved and ambitious organisation.
* A vibrant, values-driven culture where your voice and work matters.
* A flexible, supportive team with big plans and a collaborative mindset.
* Hybrid working, with the option to choose your main base from one of our centres (Brighton, Haywards Heath, Horsham, Burgess Hill or Bognor Regis), with the option of home working.
