Fundraising Manager – North Birmingham and Black Country
Fixed Term (12 Months - Maternity Cover)
£23,700 - £26,000 + car/car allowance + benefits


Are you positive and results-driven with an impressive track record in fundraising, sales or marketing?

Why do we ask? Because one in three people will develop cancer in their lifetime and it’s our aim to raise enough funds to be there for each and every one of them. Regional fundraising already generates over £40m a year across the UK, but we need someone like you to help us raise much more and encourage more people to take part in what we do.

The candidates we are looking for will be experienced in working with and supporting different types of fundraisers. From individuals to companies, groups to committees, you will be confident in stewarding relationships and securing new business. Working independently, equipped with a strategic mindset, focus, drive and enthusiasm, you will have excellent communication and relationship building skills. You will be adept at planning and prioritising to meet the multiple calls on your time. Using all these skills and traits, you'll create and implement an innovative plan - one that maximises our impact in your area and delivers strategic financial and non-financial objectives through a network of local supporters and volunteers.

You'll be part of our ambition to inspire millions to get involved in reaching and improving the lives of people affected by cancer. As Fundraising Manager for North Birmingham and Black Country you would work with local supporters including businesses, individuals, community groups, volunteers and media contacts to raise awareness of our vital work and how each supporter can make a difference. You would support people to maximise their fundraising and recognise the difference that they are helping to make for people affected by cancer. You’ll work to grow fundraising income in the area by research new opportunities, winning new supporters and building long term relationships.

In return for your hard work and impressive results, we commit to actively developing you and our benefits include BUPA, life assurance, pension, childcare vouchers, generous leave, and interest free loans for season tickets and gym membership.

Macmillan’s Fundraising Managers are home-workers who travel extensively within the defined geographical area for their role. You must have a full UK driving licence at the time of application and the work will also require some unsocial and out of hours working. A car or car allowance is provided. There will be a requirement for flexible working to support evening and weekend events: you will be compensated for this with time off in lieu.

You may have experience of the following: Sales Manager, Regional Fundraiser, Corporate Fundraiser, New Business Manager, Area Sales Manager, Business Development Manager, Marketing Manager, Key Account Manager, Client Relations Manager.
