Fundraising Project Manager

Change of Scene provides outdoor learning to vulnerable children and young people on our 16-acre smallholding in Surrey. We want to develop and diversify our services to meet the needs of the growing numbers of children and young people who are either struggling to keep their school place or who have already been excluded. However, we are unable to expand on our current site.

We have set ourselves an ambitious target to find a new site in the locality, fundraise to cover the costs of leaving our existing smallholding and setting ourselves up on our new site and expanding the services we offer. We want to do this within two years. 

We are currently seeking a proactive and organised Fundraising Project Manager to raise the capital and revenue funding required to deliver the move to a new site, develop and diversity CoS’s donor and supporter base, working with the CEO and staff team, supported by the board of trustees. 

To succeed, you will have experience of managing the full fundraising project cycle, from conception to delivery, ensuring activity is delivered on time, to budget and complying with best practice.  You will have experience of delivering fundraising success, and you will be skilled at bringing multiple stakeholders to deliver the required outcome, building excellent working relationships throughout.

Interview date: 23rd April 2021 via video conferencing.
