We are looking for a fundraiser who understands how to build and implement successful fundraising strategies that will create income for the short, medium and longer term. To do this, the post holder will build relationships with a range of supporters, potential major donors, corporate and strategic partners so that our income base is as diverse as our activity.

Background

Herefordshire Wildlife Trust is the leading Wildlife Charity in Herefordshire and one of the 46 Wildlife Trusts across the UK. The Wildlife Trusts recently launched the Strategy for 2030, which has three main goals:

1. Nature is in recovery with abundant, diverse wildlife and natural processes creating wilder land and seascapes where people and nature thrive
2. People are taking meaningful action for nature and the climate, resulting in better decision making for the environment at both the local level and across the four nations of the UK
3. Nature is playing a central and valued role in helping to address local and global problems

Herefordshire Wildlife Trust is committed to playing a proactive role in delivering these goals. This role is pivotal to secure additional funding to support the Trust’s anticipated growth and success.

We are seeking to appoint an innovative fundraising manager to lead on generating income from high value major funders, charitable trusts, grants and corporate partnerships. The ideal candidate will have the ability to identify new funding opportunities, and the confidence to lead on complex applications and develop relationships with new donors.
