Corporate Fundraiser (adoption leave cover)

Are you passionate about improving mental health for the people of Lancashire? Do you have the skills we need to grow our fundraising activities with corporate supporters?

We're looking for someone with experience of building relationships with stakeholders, particularly business leaders and staff teams, who can help us to grow our corporate fundraising activities. 

You'll work closely with our CEO, Head of Development and Community & Events Fundraiser, focusing on growing the number of companies that support us via our recently launched patron scheme, as well as Charity of the Year partnerships, staff fundraisers and sponsorship. 

You'll engage with existing corporate supporters, further developing these relationships and ensuring people's experience of fundraising for Lancashire Mind is rewarding and inspiring. You'll also create content for print and digital media to promote fundraising opportunities to existing and new supporters.

The post is based at the Lancashire Mind office in Chorley for at least one day per week, with some time spent working from home, as well as at locations around Lancashire for meetings, training, fundraising activities and events.

Please note: this role is subject to a basic DBS check

The deadline for application forms is 9am on Tuesday 2nd of January 2024. This deadline has been extended and that previous applicants don't need to reapply.

Interviews will be held on Friday 12 January 2024 at the Lancashire Mind office in Chorley, Lancashire.

We want to be a great employer for all our staff, regardless of their background or characteristics. We recognise that not everyone is the same and that different people will require different support to fulfil their potential. One thing we can do to work towards that goal is to ensure that our staff team is representative of the diverse communities across Lancashire. We particularly encourage applications from people in communities that face mental health inequalities and from anyone with experience of living with a mental health condition.

Lancashire Mind has a dedicated workplace wellbeing programme to ensure staff are supported with their own wellbeing, which includes an Employee Assistance Programme and wellbeing activities throughout the year. We also offer a workplace pension scheme; 25 days annual leave, plus bank holidays and 3 additional days between Christmas and New Year (pro rata for part-time staff); paid time off to manage unexpected life events (e.g. illness of a dependent); a sick pay scheme; regular supervision; and a commitment to supporting learning and development opportunities. 

Above all, we are a friendly and supportive place to work. Our current team members will tell you that the biggest plus is joining a team who are passionate, dedicated and committed to making a difference to the lives of others.
