Hourglass is the only UK-wide charity dedicated to ending the abuse, harm and exploitation of older people. We work to create a safer ageing society where everyone can age safely and with dignity, and where older people are recognised, respected and supported.
Our services include a 24/7 Helpline, casework programmes, policy advocacy, and awareness-raising campaigns. We exist to end the harm, abuse, neglect and exploitation of older people – and we support those affected by it.
We are looking for a digitally-savvy, creative and data-driven Digital Fundraising Officer to help drive income and supporter engagement across all digital channels. This is a new and exciting role within our growing fundraising and income generation.

You’ll manage content across Hourglass’s fundraising webpages, and support the delivery of integrated, multi-channel campaigns that raise vital income and increase the visibility of our mission.
