About Us:

At York Road Project, we are dedicated to transforming the lives of individuals experiencing homelessness in Woking. We believe in harnessing the unique strengths and potential of each individual to create a pathway towards stability and independence.

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced Community/Events fundraiser, who has a passion for the cause of homelessness. You will continue to build a sustainable Events & Community fundraising programme. The role will involve building relationships with donors and fundraisers to increase income from corporates, individuals, and legacies.

This role plays a pivotal role in growing York Road Project's voluntary income as well as raising awareness and brand recognition in our local area.

Key Responsibilities:


• Work closely with the Chief Executive and Fundraising sub-committee to develop and implement a fundraising strategy and execution plan that meet the organisation's income targets.


• Support the Chief Executive in building relationships with major donors.


• Proactively seek out and develop new funding opportunities, with an emphasis on chasing opportunities for long-term and unrestricted income.


• Develop a York Road Project annual fundraising event/campaign, overseeing all administrative tasks, such as mailing list preparation, guest lists, and distribution on campaign items.


• Promote 'challenge events' (such as the Surrey Half Marathon) and encourage supporters to take part.


• Encourage supporters to leave legacies in their wills to support the work of the organisation.


• Collaborate with other colleagues and trustees to ensure a coordinated approach to fundraising.


• Accurately record and manage donor data, keeping records up-to-date and GDPR compliant.


• Promote the idea of regular donations to our ad-hoc donors.


• Stay current on fundraising trends and techniques, act as the charity's thought-leading expert, and drive these trends and techniques into the organisation's fundraising activities.


• Ensure that all fundraising activities comply with relevant regulation and ethical

standards; for example, The Fundraising Regulator, The Charity Commission etc.


• Create marketing and promotional material in accordance with York Road Project branding, to support fundraising activities as required.


• Develop a volunteer program to enhance community involvement and contribute to the achievement of organisational objectives. These activities will be fundraising related, in order to engage local businesses.


• Identify opportunities to develop funding support from companies and organisations to elicit support (at local, regional, and national levels).


• Manage low risk press releases and enquiries.


• Create content for social media (and other digital channels) while always ensuring consistency in line with brand guidelines.


• Plan and drive digital campaigns including Small Charity Week and World Homeless Day.

Key Skills and Qualifications:


• Results-driven individual.


• Ability to build and maintain relationships with a wide and diverse set of stakeholders.


• Exceptional interpersonal skills and supporter care.


• Proven community fundraising experience.


• A motivated individual whose values align with our mission to defeat homelessness.


• Strong organisational and project management abilities.


• Creative thinker and problem-solver.


• Familiarity with fundraising regulations and best practices.


• Effective communication skills with the ability to write compelling fundraising material.


• Proactive, flexible, and a collaborative team player.


• Local area and community network knowledge is a plus.


• Strong learning mindset that reflects on challenges and growth points for continuous improvement.


• Data-driven in assessing the impact of fundraising efforts, guiding informed decisions for improvement.
