Trusts Officer (Fundraising)

We are looking to expand on our Trusts and Foundations fundraising activity by recruiting for an experienced Trusts Officer, with a proven track record of success in soliciting and managing five and six figure grants to help us reach our ambitious goals.

Trusts Officer
Hours: 37.5 Hours per week
Salary: *£28,110 - £29,590 (*starting salary) plus £3,000 non pensionable market supplement
Location: Leicester
Department: Fundraising

We have spent the past year building the foundations for our Trusts and Foundations income stream with really positive outcomes.

Joining our Major Gifts team, you’ll be responsible for identifying and articulating fundable opportunities and, using a pipeline approach, submitting high quality proposals to potential funders. You’ll oversee implementation of the grants you win, ensuring that funder conditions are adhered to and you’ll undertake appropriate reporting.

You’ll be a highly-organised self-starter with excellent written English and the ability to proactively seek out funding opportunities. You’ll also have a good grasp of legal, governance and risk issues. You’ll share our determination to help RAF personnel and their families who have sacrificed so much in the service of their country – and you’ll be able to inspire this passion in others.

The post is based at our Head Office in Leicester.

If you’re interested in the role, we’d love to hear from you.

Closing Date for receipt of all applications: 2pm on Thursday 1st February 2018
