Trusts and Foundations Fundraising Manager

2 weeks ago


Liverpool, United Kingdom CHARITY PEOPLE Full time

Could you use your Trusts fundraising experience to help transform lives through music?

There's so much more than classical music here. As Trusts and Foundations Fundraising Manager at one of Liverpool's most iconic cultural organisations, you'll raise money to support a world class orchestra, venue and choir; empower young people through music; and support a diverse cultural programme ranging from rock to folk and jazz, film to comedy and spoken work.

You'll also fundraise for musical programmes with the power to change lives, working side-by-side with NHS trusts and primary care, supporting community participants with their mental and physical health.

Salary: £35,000
Location: Hybrid, Liverpool and home (1-2 office days per week)
Hours: 35 hours FTE, full-time or part-time considered
Benefits: 26 days, pension, complimentary tickets, health cash plan, discounted travel and parking, service awards
Culture: Life and family-friendly, supportive and empowering, aiming to help you to thrive

About the role
As a vital member of the Development team, you'll play an instrumental role raising essential funds to support the organisation's pioneering Music and Health initiatives, including the nationally-renowned 'In Harmony' music education program (reaching almost 1,800 young people across Merseyside).

With a wide variety of ways for funders to get involved, this is a genuinely exciting role providing a chance to get creative with a varied portfolio. Trusts and foundations income is in a strong position (currently approx. £800k) and they have warm relationships already in place. So, this is all about maximising opportunities and working innovatively to explore new relationships and introduce funders to the organisation's work.

Question: Working closely with the artistic team, what new funding opportunities might be accessible if together you can demonstrate the life-changing impact on young people, or people experiencing mental health challenges?

About you
First of all, you don't need to come with an encyclopaedic knowledge of classical music. But, you'll need an appreciation of the power music has to change lives and a curiosity to learn more.

To apply for this exciting role, we'd love you to showcase the following skills, experience and behaviours:

* Previous track-record of securing income from trusts and foundations.
* Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with a talent for crafting persuasive and compelling proposals.
* Strong organisational skills, with keen attention-to-detail.
* Proficiency in budget development, financial reporting, and data analysis.
* Self-motivated, able to work independently and manage multiple priorities.
* Collaborative team player, with a welcoming and inclusive interpersonal style.

If you're as excited by this opportunity as we are, then what are you waiting for?

Please send a copy of your profile or CV to Amelia Lee at Charity People as the first step.

Deadline: Only because this role has been previously advertised, we'll be working on a rolling basis and accepting applications as they arrive.

If you feel this disadvantages you in any way at all (e.g. with school holidays or caring responsibilities), then just drop Amelia a note and she'll ensure you don't miss out.
