Wildlife Fundraiser

Are you looking for a fulfilling role where you can combine your passion for nature with your excellent communication skills?

Join Europe's largest nature conservation charity and make a real difference as a Wildlife Fundraiser

**Position**: 5739 Wildlife Fundraiser - Rathlin Island

**Ref**: FEB20248506

**Location**: Rathlin Island

**Salary**: £23,500.00 - £24,871.00 per annum

**Contract**: Fixed Term - 6 months

**Closing Date**:Sun, 24th Mar 2024

**The Role**

Each day you will travel to different venues, set up an attractive fundraising stand, and spend the day actively engaging with members of the public, spreading awareness about our conservation efforts and inspiring individuals to become lifelong members.

Don't worry if you're not a wildlife expert yet - you will be provided with comprehensive training to equip you with all the knowledge you need. Plus, you'll enjoy the added perk of a company van, with fuel and parking costs paid for.

What's even better? You'll have the flexibility to choose a contract between 3 to 5 days per week, and enjoy the stability of a set salary, rather than working on commission. With 34 days of annual leave (including bank holidays) and opportunities for sabbaticals, we value your work-life balance and well-being.

But it's not just about the benefits - it's about the impact you'll make. Join a team that's dedicated to preserving nature and inspiring others to do the same. Your role will be pivotal in driving positive change, and you'll have the support of a diverse and inclusive community every step of the way.
