Location: Marsh Barton, Exeter – Flexible hybrid working

Contract: Full- or part-time hours (22.5 hours p/w minimum, up to 37.5 hours p/w full-time)

Salary: £40,000 per annum

The Company:

Exeter Leukaemia Fund (ELF) is a registered charity providing vital support to patients with blood cancer and other disorders, who attend the Haematology Centre at the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital (RD&E).

ELF’s vision is that every family affected by blood cancer or a blood disorder in the South West receives compassionate, tailored support. We aim to lighten the load, supporting patients and families from diagnosis, through treatment and after treatment, at hospital and in the local community.

Joining ELF offers you more than just a job; we offer you the chance to be part of a collaborative team that makes a real difference to the lives of others. At the same time, we offer excellent opportunities for personal and professional development. We offer flexible working hours, ideal for someone looking to contribute to a meaningful cause in a supportive and dynamic environment.

The Role:

We have a newly created opportunity for a Head of Income Generation to join ELF as a senior leader within our charity. You will be responsible for setting and delivering our fundraising strategy and achieving income targets in line with our objectives. You will manage our income generation team and support the CEO and Board of Trustees to set and deliver strategy.

Your responsibilities will include:

Setting and delivering ELF’s income generation strategy in consultation with the CEO and the fundraising team. Line managing our fundraising team and providing management to the wider team when the CEO is absent. Recording fundraising activity and maintaining accurate reports to meet KPIs. Setting monthly income targets based upon activities, opportunities and key dates. Developing and managing a prospect pool for major gift cultivation, researching relevant donors and facilitating introduction. Creating compelling fundraising proposals and communicating effectively with donors. Ensuring excellent stewardship of donors, providing relevant reports and updates. Supporting fundraising efforts across various income streams, including trusts, grants, and corporates. Ensuring compliance with the Charity Commission and Fundraising Regulator guidelines. Promoting ELF’s mission, values, and acting as an ambassador with donors, patients and stakeholders. Attending board meetings to provide updates on income generation. Complying with ELF’s policies and undertaking additional responsibilities as requested by the CEO.

The Person:

The successful candidate will have substantial experience of working in a fundraising position and driving an income-generation strategy. You will have demonstrable success in securing gifts from a range of donors and in building excellent relationships, with colleagues, donors and beneficiaries. You’ll come with substantial experience in applying for grants from a range of sources and in securing legacy pledges.

The ideal candidate will have a proven knowledge of fundraising principles and of the Fundraising Regulator and Charity Commission guidelines. You’ll be experienced in using fundraising databases and data segmentation to identify and develop prospect lists. Exceptional attention to detail and a good working knowledge of GDPR and data protection principles are required.

As our Head of Income Generation, you will be highly motivated with the ability to find pragmatic solutions, seek improvements and adapt to changing situations. You’ll share ELF’s passion in supporting cancer patients and their families.

Experience working in a medical charity would be desirable, but we will consider candidates from a variety of charitable backgrounds. Team leadership experience would be beneficial. A fundraising qualification would be useful, although not essential.

This role can is offered on either a full-time or part-time basis. We can be flexible with how the hours sit across the week to fit in with your schedule, however we do ask that the role holder works during core hours and has some flexibility to occasionally attend events and fundraisers outside of working hours. This is a hybrid position with a minimum of two days per week based in the Marsh Barton office.

The Rewards:

In return, we offer a flexible hybrid working environment, a competitive salary package of £40,000 per annum, 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays (pro rata), pension scheme, Blue Light discount, paid volunteering days, a free counselling service for all staff, and a culture which encourages professional development.

As a charity, we are fully committed to safeguarding. All successful applicants will be required to complete an enhanced DBS check before joining our team.

If you are passionate about supporting our charity and have the skills to set and deliver our fundraising strategy, we would love to hear from you.

Closing date for applications will be Friday 20th October.

No agencies please.
