York, York City, United Kingdom Charity People Full time

Are you an experienced philanthropy fundraiser wanting to use your skills to make a long-term impact on the lives of young people experiencing homelessness?

Charity People are partnering with Safe and Sound Homes (SASH) to find a Trust and Major Donor Lead to join the team to manage existing relationships with trusts and major donors, while developing new relationships within this space so that SASH can continue their essential, life changing work.

Salary £38,826 per annum

Contract: Permanent, 37 hours per week but happy to look at condensed, part time and reduced hours, so please let us know what you are looking for.

Based: Hybrid, in York and from home (1 day per week in the office minimum, SASH are based at the University Science Park)

Excellent benefits: 28 days annual leave plus bank holidays, 5% pension contributions, enhanced maternity leave and shared paternal leave, parking permit.

Culture: Collaborative, healthy, happy and both life and family-friendly

About the charity:

Safe and Sound Homes (SASH) is a charity that has been helping vulnerable young people experiencing homelessness since their inception in 1994. They cover York, North Yorkshire and East Riding, and have two types of approaches in order to achieve their aim of making a lasting difference to each young person, so they will never have to experience homelessness again.

SASH offers short-term, immediate help at the time of crisis through their Nightstop programme, and longer-term intervention through their Supported Lodgings scheme, where young people are provided accommodation in the homes of volunteer hosts.

About the role:

You'll account manage and steward existing trust donors and identify and build relationships with new prospects who have the capacity to support at a higher level. You'll collaborate with members of the Senior Management Team to create compelling funding proposals, and work with the wider communications team to develop engaging proposals.

About you:

This brilliant opportunity would really suit a skilled and collaborative relationship builder.

To apply for this role, we'd love to see you showcasing:

Experience in Trust and Foundations Fundraising or statutory bid writing
Experience working with major donors and high net worth individuals and the ability to secure major gifts
Demonstrable experience of developing and maintaining relationships with partners and/or supporters that ultimately generate income

Most importantly, you'll be passionate about positively impacting the lives of young people experiencing homelessness, not only when they are in crisis, but longer term, providing them with the skills and knowledge they need to live independently.

If you're excited about this role like we are, please send a profile or copy of your CV to Priya Vencatasawmy at Charity People who will fill you in on next steps.

Deadline to apply: Only because this role has been previously advertised, we'll be accepting applications on a rolling basis. If you feel this disadvantages you in any way, please contact Priya at Charity People and she'll do her best to ensure you don't miss out.
