Our growth and our ambition, mean that we are increasing the size of our fast-paced and innovative Fundraising Team. We are looking for people who want to bring their experience and energy to help us do even more to tackle the planet’s biggest environmental issues.

An outstanding opportunity has arisen for a proactive, influential and charismatic Supporter Development Manager to join Greenpeace, the world’s most iconic and determined environmental campaigning organisation.

You'll join the Supporter Development Team, where you'll play a pivotal part in driving donor support.

In return we can offer you a friendly, fast-paced, immensely rewarding working environment where creativity is encouraged, and ideas are supported. In this role you'll develop, manage and deliver a programme, which will increase donations from existing supporters, leading to a year-on-year increase in net income.

Reporting to the Head of Supporter Development, you will also:

  • Maximise ways that donors can support us by encouraging them to enter into the high value and legacy programmes.
  • Work closely with the Campaigns Team, having a say in our campaigns.
  • Provide leadership, support and line management to the Supporter Development Fundraiser.

The successful candidate will be an adaptable, target-driven individual who's hugely enthused about our values and aims, and boasts considerable direct marketing expertise.

  • Line management experience and an aptitude for staff development.
  • A background evaluating and amending direct marketing copy and creative / design work across various channels.
  • Experience producing accurate briefs and reports, and of budgeting and planning.
  • Strong IT skills, a high level of numeracy and the ability to maintain accurate records and administrative systems.

Greenpeace stands for positive change through action and everyone who works for us is passionate about what we're trying to achieve. Join us and you'll be part of an action-led, ambitious organisation which prides itself on being an inspiring place to work.
