Help us make a difference to people with life-limiting illnesses…
At The Myton Hospices, we provide specialist care and support for people with life-limiting illnesses, and their loved ones, from the point of diagnosis to end of life. We are a much-loved and well supported charity, at the heart of our community. We have three hospices, a range of community services, and 26 charity shops in Coventry and Warwickshire.
Our fundraising events are a vital part of how we raise income, build connection, and inspire long term support. We are now looking for an experienced and driven Events Fundraising Lead to join our successful Events Team.
About the role
As Fundraising Events Lead, you will take ownership of a portfolio of Myton managed and third-party fundraising events, leading their planning, delivery, financial performance and supporter experience from start to finish. Reporting to the Events Manager, you will act as the operational lead for allocated events, ensuring income targets are achieved, budgets are well managed, risks are controlled and every event is delivered to a high standard. This is a hands-on role, involving pre-event planning, live event delivery and post event evaluation. It requires flexibility to work evenings and weekends and to travel across multiple locations as needed.
As the Fundraising Events Lead a typical day might include:
* Planning and managing the delivery of large scale and community fundraising events
* Leading on event budgets, forecasting, income tracking and post event financial reporting
* Coordinating suppliers, venues, partners and internal teams to ensure smooth delivery
* Managing on the day operations including set up, registration, volunteer deployment and health and safety
* Acting as the main point of contact for participants and key stakeholders
* Working closely with Marketing, Database and Supporter Care teams to deliver strong participant journeys and stewardship
* Using data and insight to evaluate performance and identify opportunities for growth and improvement
* Through your work, you will help deliver well run, inspiring events that raise vital income and create positive, lasting experiences for supporters, volunteers and partners.
About you
We would love to hear from you if you have:
* Proven experience of planning and delivering fundraising or large-scale events
* Strong financial management skills, with experience of managing budgets and maximising net income
* Excellent organisational skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines
* Strong communication and relationship building skills with a wide range of stakeholders
* Confidence working with data, reporting and CRM systems
* A flexible and proactive approach, with a willingness to work evenings and weekends as required
* A genuine passion for fundraising and commitment to Myton's values
Other roles you may have experience of could include:
* Fundraising Events Manager
* Senior Events Officer
* Community or Challenge Events Lead
* Fundraising Project Manager
* Events and Partnerships Manager
This role will require a standard DBS check because you will be working in an adult healthcare environment.
The role is based at the Warwick Hospice, but also requires flexibility across our Coventry and Rugby sites, and occasional travel.
We are committed to building an inclusive workplace and encourage everyone to bring their true selves to work. However you identify, and whatever background you bring with you, we welcome you to apply. If there are any adjustments that would help improve your experience with Myton, we encourage you to share this with us.
We particularly welcome applications from people with disabilities and from ethnic minorities, who are currently under-represented in our hospices. We also believe our interview process should be inclusive and transparent. If there is anything missing, or a way we can improve, please do let us know.
