As a small, ambitious charity with no other paid fundraising resource, they are looking for someone who is both strategic and hands-on with a proven track record of securing significant gifts and building senior-level relationships.

Reporting to the Branch Manager, you will take overall responsibility for planning and delivering the campaign from strategy through to completion.
You will:
Develop and implement a comprehensive capital fundraising strategy
Lead private and public phases of the campaign
Secure significant gifts from major donors and high-net-worth individuals
Build and develop corporate partnerships
Prepare compelling cases for support, proposals and campaign materials
Support trustees and senior volunteers to leverage networks
Ensure robust governance, reporting and stewardship
Monitor income targets and adapt strategy as required
About you
We are looking for someone who can demonstrate:
Experience of leading or contributing significantly to a £1m+ capital campaign
A strong track record of securing major gifts from HNWIs and corporate partners
Excellent proposal writing and relationship-management skills
Confidence working with financial targets and campaign milestones
The ability to influence and engage senior stakeholders
Resilience, credibility and a results-driven mindset
Experience within animal welfare or a federated charity structure would be advantageous but is not essential.
Be part of a transformational project that will redefine animal welfare provision across the region.
