We have an exciting opportunity for an Associate Development Director to join our high performing charity team.
 
Already one of the best performing NHS Charities in the sector, with an annual income of £4m, we have a new opening for an inspirational and committed Associate Director to lead our fundraising and communications strategies and to take our income to a new level.
 
We have ambitious plans to support the NHS here in Nottingham by running multiple £m campaigns across a range of services, including our Children’s Hospital and our Regional Cancer Centre.
 
Every day hundreds of patients and families choose to support Nottingham’s NHS hospital because of the incredible care they have received.
 
Your role will be to develop a strategy that increases our supporter acquisition, improves our donor retention and maximises that support to reach our goals.
 
You will need to be a strategist and a detailed analyst, excel with budgets, reports and presentations, and lead a team of committed fundraisers across a range of income streams.
 
You will be a natural and enthusiastic leader, who can direct, support and inspire a high-performing team.
 
With experience of working in a complex environment, you will be organised with a high-level of attention to detail, plus have the ability to work alongside adjacent departments in Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust.
 
We are looking for someone who is dynamic, creative, ambitious and team-oriented, with proven experience working for a fast-paced organisation.
 
As well as evidence of high-level strategic thinking, you will be comfortable diving into the day-to-day work, and so a broad skill set is a must together with a sharp focus on delivering return-on-investment, demonstrating impact of campaigns on revenue, and building our audiences.
 
This is a complex role requiring a high level of political acumen, excellent relationship skills and a desire to improve our ability and capacity to generate income at every level, from digital fundraising to major gifts.
 
The Charity has been serving the Hospital Trust for 17 years and has given over £60m funding for specialist equipment, medical research, enhancements to the hospital environment, and staff wellbeing and support programmes.
 
If you feel you have the right blend of skills and experience to lead this vital function for the Charity, then please do get in touch.
 
This role will be appointed on a permanent and Full-Time basis and there are options for Hybrid-Working - salary of circa £55,000 according to experience.
