London, United Kingdom Parkinson's UK Full time

**About the role**

If you are looking for a great next step into your fundraising career, we have an excellent opportunity for you to join our high performing Trusts and Statutory team as a Trusts Officer.

Maximising the value and contribution of our funders is fundamental to Parkinson’s UK delivering the impact we want to see for people affected by Parkinson's. Building networks, understanding what motivates our supporters, and aligning our programmes to their grantmaking strategies is key to our growth plans for Major Gifts. Our Major Gifts and Special Events function are a dynamic and high-performing team. We have a well established programme raising circa £5 million a year across the department to fund our vital work but big ambitions to grow that further by 2024.

In this role you will coordinate trust fundraising activity, identifying trusts and foundation prospects and writing high quality proposals and reports in collaboration with supportive colleagues in the team and across the charity. With an established portfolio of four and five figure trust donors, you'll have the opportunity to grow this significantly in the coming years. Together with our other Trusts Officer, you’ll oversee the small trusts programme of regular supporters, create tailored approaches to bigger funders in your portfolio, and support other team projects and cultivation events.

**What you’ll do**
- Cultivate strong working relationships with a portfolio of trust and foundation supporters increasing their engagement with and support of the charity.
- Maintain an active portfolio of small and mid-sized trust funders, and research new trusts increasing your own portfolio.
- Create clear and concise proposals and reports for trusts in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, including for project and region-specific funding requests.
- Identify the most appropriate approaches for specific trusts and opportunities to increase giving and secure multi-year gifts, thanking promptly and appropriately.

**What you’ll bring**
- Able to manage a portfolio of contacts. Use excellent research and writing skills to write persuasive copy capable of securing four or five-figure gifts from charitable trusts and foundations
- Ability to work effectively with a range of internal and external people, including trust administrators and trustees, influencing them to support new projects through written proposals, meetings, site visits and calls.
- Knowledge of the requirements of trust funders, the principles of bid-writing and effective project reporting, including strong research skills and excellent writing.
- Knowledge of the trust fundraising environment in the UK, especially those supporting health causes, welfare, disability and scientific research.

Sounds like you? We would love to hear from you.
