Are you an enthusiastic community fundraiser with experience in community events, challenge events and working directly with supporters? Do you have excellent customer care skills and enjoy supporting fantastic fundraisers? Do you have the skills to recruit new supporters to an important but little-known cause? Can you provide excellent stewardship to fundraisers based all over the UK?

If the answer is yes to all these questions ...... you might be just the person we’re looking for!

Children’s Liver Disease Foundation (CLDF) is a national charity based in Birmingham. We take action against the effects of childhood liver disease, providing information, support, research funds and a voice for all affected. At least twenty children are diagnosed with a liver disease every week in the UK. CLDF is the only UK charity dedicated to fighting all forms of childhood liver disease, for which there is still no cure. Please find out more about the difference we make on our website.

We need to become our supporters’ charity of choice, maximise our opportunities, work proactively and engage more donors to ensure that we are here when people need us most.

We have an exciting opportunity for a fundraising professional to join our busy, dynamic (but small) team. As the Community Fundraiser you will be responsible for developing and managing existing relationships with supporters to maximise income, as well as the recruitment and management of the charity’s calendar of challenge events. You will take the lead of a number of charity campaigns and be integral to recruiting new supporters to the charity.

You’ll have experience in either community or challenge fundraising, excellent written and verbal communication skills as well as a friendly and positive outlook ideal for building positive relationships with supporters.  

You’ll also need to be proactive, with real time management capability, and thrive in a busy small team.

Please note that a Disclosure and Barring Service (formerly CRB) check will be undertaken.
