Are you a friendly and pragmatic person who lives and breathes Trusts fundraising? Have you got a firm grip on all the disciplines, and do you understand the importance of building strong relationships? As part of our 5 years ‘Invest to Grow’ strategy, we have an opening to develop and grow our Trusts and Grant Making Foundations programme. We have an annual programme of compatible Trusts to approach and are looking for a Trust Fundraiser with a successful track record, to further develop proposals of our services and our capital funding appeals. In addition to the role, with your excellent writing skills and the support of our marketing team, you will be responsible for managing 2-3 fundraising appeals a year that will go out to our supporters. We can offer you flexible hours and the option to spend time working from home. We’re a friendly bunch of people to work with and, as your line manager, I’m the kind of person who’ll give you the freedom to do great things. We can’t afford huge salaries, but I’m open to talk. Car owner/driver essential. For further information call Robin Langrishe Head of Community Relationships on 0115 9491264.

The Treetops Lottery is a highly successful form of fundraising for us. Since 1996, the Treetops Lottery and the people that play, have helped to raise over £8million for hospice care in Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire.
