Salary - £27- £29,000 per annum WTE (based on 37 hours a week)

Come and join our Community Fundraising team! I have an exciting opportunity for you to join us as a Community Fundraiser within our Income Generation team. This energizing role will see you supporting individuals and groups, within our local community, to organise their own events and fundraise for our vital care. It’s a fun and varied role and no two weeks are the same, so you’ll need to bring lots of energy to the position! One day you might be supporting someone to open their garden or hold an afternoon tea and the next you’ll be dressing up and joining the team to deliver our Reindeer Run’s at local schools. There’s also the space for you to think creatively and bring new fundraising ideas and campaigns to our community fundraising calendar.
I am looking to appoint an enthusiastic and passionate individual who is great at communicating and confident at building relationships. You’ll also need to have excellent presenting skills to motivate and inspire our supporters.

It’s an exciting time to join Phyllis Tuckwell as we build a New Hospice to serve our community for years to come, and you can be a part of it! If you would like to find out more before applying, then please do get in touch, I would love to hear from you.
