Leeds, Leeds, United Kingdom Charity Horizons Full time

A catastrophic event can change everything. Every year, across England and Wales, there are 20,000 major trauma cases and 16,000 deaths following injury. 30% of major trauma patients acquire a physical disability, and there is a 40% increased chance of mental health difficulties following major traumatic injury. Day One Trauma Support is the only charity supporting all major trauma patients, regardless of their type of injury.

Do you want to join the team that raises invaluable income to fund the practical and emotional support to enable patients to navigate the challenge of the life that lies ahead?

We are looking for a Fundraising Assistant to join the small but mighty fundraising team at Day One Trauma Support and do just this, could that be you?



The Role



As Fundraising Assistant, you will be a pivotal part of the team – helping to raise the profile of the charity, growing their supporter network and generating income. This is a varied role and a fantastic opportunity to develop your experience and skills working in the charity sector.

Main duties include:

  • Delivering exceptional donor care and stewardship.
  • Dealing with enquiries and administrative tasks efficiently and accurately.
  • Managing the supporter database, ensuring records are kept updated and that data policies and procedures are adhered to at all times.
  • Supporting the fundraising team with planning and delivery of events, as well as attending events to assist on the day as required.
  • Creating engaging content for Day One's social media channels.

    The Person



    We are looking for someone with exceptional customer service skills, and experience of working in a customer facing role. You must be enthusiastic, passionate and hard working. We are also looking for someone who has experience working towards and meeting/exceeding set targets. A knowledge of using social media and great attention to detail is key.

    If this sounds like you, and you are eager to join the team at Day One Trama this could be the hugely rewarding next step in your career



    Why Day One Trauma Support?

This organisation has a range of benefits and promotes a culture that ensures all staff feel valued and respected, but also supported in their roles.
