We are currently recruiting a Fundraising Assistant to join our high-performing Supporter Engagement Team. You will work closely with the Senior Supporter Engagement Officer and the Online Fundraising Team to provide vital support and drive the growth of the charity’s income.
In this role, you will be the face of our friendly and passionate Supporter Engagement Team.

- Steward supporters through ‘welcome’, ‘good luck’ and ‘well done’ communications as well as remittance chasing.
- As one of the key fundraising contacts, keep the managers and team up to date with supporter feedback.
- Provide central communications within the organisation on behalf of the team, updating them on upcoming events and projects.
- Share central knowledge with all SLF teams where relevant, especially with the home-based RFOs.
- Attend a variety of events to engage with and cheer on supporters including golf days, regional events and sporting events.
