Fundraising Manager

Fundraising Manager - Devon
Permanent
£23,700 - £26,000

Are you positive and results-driven with an impressive track-record in fundraising, sales or marketing?

If so, we are looking for an ambitious, and enthusiastic individual to…

• Drive fundraising income and achieve targets by increasing Macmillan’s profile and support in Devon.
• Develop and implement a local plan, using defined products and audiences, that demonstrates how you will deliver Macmillan’s national strategy and maximise opportunities.
• Recruit, manage, retain, and develop a network of businesses, individuals, community groups, volunteers, and media contacts to help deliver fundraising targets and raise awareness of our vital work.
• Support people to maximise their fundraising and recognise the difference that they are helping to make for people affected by cancer.

One in three people will develop cancer in their lifetime and it’s our aim to raise enough funds to be there for each and every one of them. Regional fundraising already generates over £40m a year across the UK, but we need someone like you to help us raise much more and encourage more people to take part in what we do. You'll be part of our ambition to inspire millions to get involved in reaching and improving the lives of people affected by cancer.

Who are we looking for? 
As our ideal candidate, you have excellent communication skills, comfortable conversing with a variety of people in different situations. You will have a sound knowledge and ability in sales and/or fundraising and customer relationship management as well as having a strategic mindset and strong IT skills. You will also be adept at planning and prioritising to meet the multiple calls on your time.

What can we offer you? 
In return for your hard work and impressive results, we commit to actively developing you and our benefits include private medical insurance, life assurance, pension, childcare vouchers, generous leave, and interest free loans for season tickets and gym membership.

Macmillan’s Fundraising Managers are home-workers who travel extensively within the defined geographical area for their role.

You must have a full UK driving licence at the time of application and the work will also require some unsocial and out of hours working. A car or car allowance is provided. There will be a requirement for flexible working to support evening and weekend events: you will be compensated for this with time off in lieu.

Interviews to be held in the Plymouth area.
