This role continues the work of an established position in our Fundraising team and is key to achieving our ambitions to grow the number of young people we support. It will also help us become more accessible to all young people in the UK with a cancer diagnosis, so we can have the greatest possible impact on each of them.
The Role
* Do you want a role where you can see your impact in changing the lives of young people living through and beyond cancer?
* Are you a confident writer who would like to use those skills to write impactful applications to access Trusts and Foundations grant income?
* Are you proud of your ability to build relationships across wide and diverse groups of people, organisations and potential partners?
* Are you enthusiastic about the thought of growing your skills and expertise in a new area, or developing your experience in a driven and impactful organisation?
* Do you enjoy working in a small team, working towards clear goals and objectives?
The position would suit someone who has some experience in a similar fundraising role, or must be a competent and confident writer with experience writing compelling applications, alongside a passion for and skill in building and managing strong relationships.
Key priorities include developing and nurturing a pipeline of new and existing Trusts and Foundations, writing compelling applications to grow grant income, and managing relationships with funders to strengthen their engagement with the Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust. You will also implement an effective stewardship and communication process to encourage long‑term support. Working alongside another fundraiser, together you will share responsibility for securing grants.
As a part of a small fundraising team, where necessary you will also have the chance, and be expected, to play a proactive part in our wider fundraising activities, to help grow income to transform the lives of more young people living through and beyond cancer.
This is a great opportunity to join a close, ambitious and supportive team where you can experience first‑hand the difference you are making to so many young lives.
