What will I be doing?

As Relationship Manager, you will work within the community to provide individuals, groups, and corporate supporters an exceptional level of service across the charity's UK portfolio. You will inspire and motivate supporters to develop long-term relationships and maximising fundraising opportunities.

• Inspiring, developing and managing supporters to achieve their goals through offering outstanding and tailored stewardship

• Ensuring each supporter has a stewardship plan in place which best fits their motivations

• Planning and delivering effective rewards and recognition to increase loyalty and income

• Building strong working relationships with other divisional team members

• Supporting the development of prospect pipelines of opportunities and identifying and cultivating leads.

• Excellent communication and presentation skills (face to face, written and phone) to engender the confidence of supporters and build long lasting relationship

What will I gain?

Without you the charity wouldn't be able to achieve their aim of seeing 3 in 4 people survive cancer by 2034. So, you will be rewarded in as many ways as possible. The benefits package includes discounts on anything from travel to technology, generous holiday allowance, gym membership, childcare vouchers and much more.
