Are you a talented and ambitious fundraiser who wants to catapult your career?

Have you been struggling to break through and be seen as senior management potential?

HFTF has an amazing opportunity for someone to do just that.

You will want to:

- Drive income generation and build sustainability

- Learn about becoming an effective Director at a charity

- Work with a supportive board and develop yourself for your next career step

About Us

Hope for the Future is a climate change charity that trains communities, groups and individuals to work with politicians on climate change. Our vision is to see politicians of all political persuasions joining together with each other and with communities across the UK to drive inclusive action on the climate and nature crises.

We operate nationally at a grassroots level, linking constituents with their elected representatives, running training and holding events.

We are currently seeking a Director of Income Generation to join our team on a full-time, permanent basis.

The Benefits

- Salary of £41,976 (with a £3,000 London weighting for qualifying postcode areas)

- 30 days' annual leave plus bank holidays

This is a unique opportunity to make that all important step from manager to leader, learn on the job and develop while you deliver. Today, we expect you to have at least two-four years of fundraising experience with a demonstrable track record of managing income delivery.

The Role

As our Director of Income Generation, you will oversee all aspects of our fundraising and income generation.

Leading the development and implementation of our fundraising strategy and operational plans, you will ensure we have sustainable funding sources whilst overseeing fundraising strategy bids, proposals and reporting, including the fundraising function on our CRM system.

You will also manage marketing and communications activities, ensuring effective external communication to showcase the impact and outcomes of our work, raising our presence and profile.

Additionally, you will:

- Oversee frameworks for monitoring, evaluation and impact measurement

- Deliver and manage key funding applications and activities

- Develop and maintain relationships with stakeholders, funders, supporters and partners

About You

To be considered as our Director of Income Generation, you will need:

- Fundraising experience, including raising £0.5 - £1m of funding per annum

- A background in trusts and foundation fundraising

- Experience working with budgets to optimise the utilisation of resources

- Experience overseeing the delivery of programmes and projects, implementation of CRM systems and system development

- Experience developing and managing a range of management information metrics

- Experience managing a team

- An understanding of acquisition mechanics for mass market support

- To be educated to a degree level in a related field and/or experience overseeing fundraising and communications functions

For our perfect candidate, we prioritise ambition, enthusiasm and a willingness to learn, over ticking all the boxes. We know that the job description is looking for a lot, but don't let that put you off, if you think that you have most of what we are looking for and know you can do the rest then this might be just the opportunity you are looking for

So, if you’re looking for a rewarding role as a Director of Income Generation, please check out our website and send us your details today. We will be reviewing applications on a rolling basis and may close this opportunity early if we find our ideal candidate.
