About SafeLives:

We are a national charity dedicated to ending domestic abuse in the UK. Our mission is simple – to make sure all people affected by domestic abuse can live safely. We emerged from an urgent need to find better ways to help victims. We combine support for local services with evidence-based interventions; we hold the largest dataset on domestic abuse in the UK and use this to inform national policy.

It is a really exciting time to join us. We are brimming with ambition.

About the role:

We are growing our successful fundraising team with some exciting new posts. In this role you will be working closely with the Head of Fundraising to establish and develop a major donor programme, identifying and securing the support of high net worth individuals wanting to help us end domestic abuse.

You will deliver high quality stewardship and ensure major donors are kept fully appraised of developments in what will be a rapidly changing, energetic and exciting period of innovation.
