Job Details

Prospectus is delighted to be working with a dynamic hospice based in Colchester to help them grow their engaged and passionate fundraising team. With a flexible approach to this recruitment campaign, they are seeking to recruit either an Events Manager or a Community Manager (two positions), or an Events and Community Manager (combined role). They will recruit based on the skills that interested candidates could bring. This is an exciting opportunity to carve out a position within the fundraising team, with the freedom to develop new asks from an established and receptive audience that the organisation is keen to build on.

Events responsibilities will include:
-Driving event income to around £250,000 per annum across challenge and hospice-led events and third party community activities.
-Line managing two long-standing and dedicated staff members.

Community responsibilities will include:
-Building strong relationships with community groups across the hospice's catchment area and growing the reach of the organisation into groups they have not previously engaged.
-Line managing a Community Fundraiser and Ambassador, both of whom have in-depth knowledge of the area and will be invaluable in enabling you to hit the ground running.
-Attendance at a number of events across the region, acting as a representative of the charity.
-Working collaboratively with the communications and corporate teams to develop asks and presentations.
-Liaising with volunteer groups to work on community-led activities.

The organisation is keen to consider senior candidates who can blend the two roles, and offer the experience needed to take the whole team to the next level. They will also consider candidates with less experience as there is some flexibility on how the team will be set up.

The hiring manager is looking for a variety of applications from people with demonstrable experience in either specialism or both, and are keen to field any questions you may have. They would encourage candidates to apply for the role and we can explore how your experience could be applicable to one of the positions.

If you would like to find out more about our client and this position, or if you have any additional questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch with the Fundraising Team at Prospectus. To register your interest in this position, please submit a Word version of your CV; covering letters are not required at this stage. A full job description will be provided to candidates shortlisted by Prospectus.
