Merrifield Consultants are delighted to be supporting Life Education Wessex and Thames Valley in their search to find a new Fundraising Manager; someone highly motivated with a passion for children's education, excellent communication and networking skills, a good track record in fundraising and the ability to lead a small team.

Organisation: Life Education Wessex and Thames Valley

Position: Fundraising Manager

Reporting to: Head of Fundraising and Communications
Salary: £34,500 - £39,000 (part-time and full-time hours considered)

Location: Either home based or working in the office in Milborne St Andrew, Dorset

Required: CV

Closing date: Applications are being reviewed on a rolling basis

Life Education Wessex & Thames Valley (LEW&TV) is a registered charity delivering health, well-being and drug education programmes to primary aged children in schools across Wessex and the Thames Valley region. The Fundraising Manager will be responsible for raising funds and the profile of the charity's work across these two regions, so around 75,000 children learn how to have a voice, develop respectful relationships, look after their mental and physical health, understand how to keep themselves safe and mange their own feelings and behaviour.

Ideally you will have experience across a broad range of funding streams to include grants and trusts, community and corporate fundraising and organising events, but someone with a strong proficiency in one of these funding streams and a desire to broaden their skills would also be considered. Experience of digital fundraising would be advantageous.

Although this is a part-time role, full time hours can be considered for the right person. The role can be purely remote, hybrid or based full-time in the charities offices in Milborne St Andrew, Dorset. A flexible approach will be required however to cover meetings and events which may involve occasional evening and weekend commitments.

Please contact Emma Bell at Merrifield Consultants to ask for more information or apply.
