London, Greater London, United Kingdom Dogs Trust Full time

Dogs Trust Worldwide recently joined forces with World Veterinary Service and its Mission Rabies project in 2023 and together we are on a mission to improve the welfare of dogs around the world and protect them from maltreatment, cruelty and suffering. We have an exciting opportunity for a Trust and Foundations Officer to join our team and play a vital role identifying, researching and approaching trusts and foundations interested in funding projects which focus on global canine welfare.

About the role:

As Trusts and Foundations Officer (International) you will:

  • Support the Trust and Foundations Team Manager (International) to deliver the trusts/foundations element of the fundraising strategy.
  • Meet an agreed annual income target via trusts/foundations, which contributes toward the Trust Team's target.
  • Develop a pipeline of charitable trusts/foundations that could support a range of international projects, programmes and activities.
  • Write high quality funding bids, in line with the requirements of potential funders, and upholding Dogs Trust's brand and high standards

    About you:

    To succeed in this role, you will have a demonstrable track record of securing grants from charitable trusts/foundations, well-developed written and verbal communication skills and, above all, be a strong, positive team player, committed to the aims and values of Dogs Trust.

    You will have exceptional attention to detail and a strong aptitude for writing creative narrative that will ensure our applications stand out when being assessed. Ideally, to be considered for a role focused on fundraising for our international projects you will have a successful track-record of trust fundraising for international projects or a strong interest in doing so.

    About Dogs Trust:

    We love dogs. That's why we do whatever we can to make sure every four-legged friend gets the love they deserve. We'll never put a healthy dog down, so our work is focused on helping dogs in need, supporting owners every step of the walk, and creating a better world for dogs in the future. It's what we've been doing since 1891 and how we've grown to become the UK's leading dog charity, helping 12,000 loyal friends find their forever homes every year.

    About the team:

    This role involved fundraising for our international work via Dogs Trust Worldwide only. But since 2023, it primarily involves fundraising for the Mission Rabies project, which now sits under the World Veterinary Service. As such, it is a thrilling time to join the team, where you can play a vital part in helping to drive and shape this merger. You will be encouraged to introduce your own bold and creative approaches. In addition, we would value knowledge gained from time spent living, working or volunteering overseas.

    In return for all of this, we have an enticing benefits package, which includes excellent annual leave, pension allowances, Perkbox, and you will you join a team of highly professional and driven colleagues in a brilliant upbeat and collaborative environment, all with a genuine passion for dogs

    Please note that this is a 12-month fixed term maternity cover contract.

    Apply now and become a pivotal force in our transformative mission - to be the change-maker for dogs everywhere.
