Mildmay is seeking to recruit a skilled and motivated Trusts and Foundations Fundraising Officer to join our Fundraising and Communications team. This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced fundraiser to help secure vital funding for both our international HIV and healthcare-related projects and the essential services we provide at Mildmay Hospital in the UK.

You will play a key role in identifying and securing funding from charitable trusts, foundations, and other funders.

The role offers the opportunity to contribute to meaningful international development projects and support healthcare services in the UK for HIV, Substance Misuse and Homeless patients.

This is a fantastic role for someone with a passion for making a difference, helping Mildmay continue its life-changing work in the UK and internationally.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION

Mildmay is a pioneering healthcare charity with a rich history of developing HIV and healthcare-related projects across Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Zimbabwe, Rwanda, and Eastern Europe. Since the 1990s, these projects have transitioned to local leadership, allowing Mildmay to focus on new opportunities. We are currently expanding our work, starting with initiatives in Uganda.
