Entry Level Wildlife Fundraiser
No experience necessary
Nature is in crisis, and your help is needed Join Europe's largest nature conservation charity and make a real difference as a Wildlife Fundraiser
Are you looking for an exciting opportunity that allows you to integrate your passion for nature with your exceptional communication skills?
Position: Wildlife Fundraiser Folkestone
Ref: DEC20242983
Location: Folkestone
**Salary**: £24,890.00 - £26,720.00 per annum
Contract: Permanent
Closing Date: Thu, 16th Jan 2025
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.
What do current employees say about this fantastic position?
‘Securing a membership is always a great feeling that stays with you. Being able to talk about things you are passionate about and learn a lot about wildlife is a real plus.’ Fun, challenging, requires resilience, great colleagues.’ - Membership Fundraiser - Current Employee
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.
About You

- A passion for conservation (no prior knowledge required);
- Resilience
- Ability to work to targets;
- A driver's licence valid for use in the UK;
- Happy to work 3 out of 4 weekends;
- Happy to travel (on average) an hour away from home each day;
- Willingness to work outdoors and independently;
- Fundraising/Sales and Customer Service experience (desirable).
Whether you're from a hospitality, customer service, sales, or volunteering background, we're more interested in your negotiating/storytelling skills and enthusiasm than your previous experience.
