London, United Kingdom Resources for Autism Full time

We have been around since 1997, when we started as a small playgroup set up by parents dismayed at the lack of provision for their autistic children. Since then, RfA has grown into a major deliverer of services and support in London and the West Midlands with a turnover of around £2.Our mission is to support autistic people to live happy and fulfilling lives. We want to change society’s attitude to autism whilst also providing essential services and enriching opportunities to autistic people. A new CEO with a strong fundraising background will join the organisation in April 2024 so you will be part of the next chapter in RfA’s story. We have strong relationships with trust funders and statutory partners, but we know we need to grow our income in other areas – can you help us to carve out that journey? 
Initially, you will be focusing mainly on helping to maintain our grant and trust fundraising income through bid-writing and supporting colleagues with reporting.
As the role develops, other elements of the fundraising mix will become increasingly important, in particular building up individual giving, corporate relationships and digital fundraising. You will come in at “ground level” on these initiatives, providing a unique opportunity to shape the future of fundraising in an ambitious and growing charity. 
You will be playing a key part in delivering our 2024-26 fundraising strategy, which is centred around building up new income streams for RfA alongside maintaining our strong profile of grant and trust funding income.
90% of our staff say that Resources for Autism is “a great place to work”.
flexible working patterns with the option to work in a hybrid way
· 25 days of leave (pro rata for part time roles) each year plus 8 bank holidays and the additional office closure between Christmas and New Year
· access to ongoing training and progress in the areas that interest you
· access to our wellbeing initiatives and an Employee Assistance Programme
· enrolment on to our pension scheme
· As Fundraising and Philanthropy Manager, you will work closely with our Head of Fundraising to: 
· Write high quality funding bids in close collaboration with service delivery colleagues 
· Define and develop our individual giving offer and build our community of donors 
· Contribute to cases for support for new corporate supporters 
· Build and maintain relationships with our supporter base as it grows through regular communication and stewardship 
· Liaise with service colleagues to build up a bank of inspiring case studies and stories from our work with autistic people 
· Push forward the development of our digital fundraising 
At least 3 years’ experience in a fundraising, philanthropy or relationship management role 
· Knowledge of digital fundraising approaches 
· Outstanding writing and communication skills
· Ability to understand financial language and budgets
· Chartered Institute of Fundraising 
· Knowledge of fundraising database systems and experience of developing/populating them 
To discuss the role informally prior to application, please contact Nick Drew, Head of Fundraising: ndrew@resourcesforautism.We particularly welcome applications from black, Asian and global majority candidates, LGBTQ+ candidates and disabled candidates, because we would like to increase the representation of these groups at this level at Resources for Autism. We want to do this because we know greater diversity will lead to even greater results for our community. 
As you would expect, we are a neuro-affirming employer, with a strengths and rights based approach to neurodiversity which affirms neurodivergent identity – we don’t want to “fix” or “cure” autism, and we don’t see it as a “disability”. We are working to improve the ways in which we recruit and support neurodiverse employees and those with lived experience of neurodiversity.
