Our client is excited to introduce this new role to its ambitious Direct Marketing team. Their vision is to ensure that all those affected by cancer can live well. To do this they are expanding their team to focus on effectively recruiting new individual donors with the best life time value, whilst investing time into their development programme for their existing supporters. Their new brand campaign also launches in 2019 and they intend for this to work hand-in-hand with the programme to maximise fundraising opportunities. The programme itself is in its infancy and the post holder will be able to shape and grow it from scratch.

Candidates should have previous experience of managing direct marketing based fundraising campaigns across a variety of media channels, as well as a strong knowledge of direct marketing techniques and principles. They will have a good understanding of the Fundraising Regulator’s Code of Practice and able to apply other relevant sector best practice. Project management skills are essential with regards to managing marketing campaigns as well as the ability to work to marketing and fundraising KPIs. The role is set within a fast paced environment so they require someone who will be comfortable with this and able to work collaboratively as part of a team or by using their own initiative. Candidates must demonstrate and apply excellent supporter care and a whole-hearted commitment to the vision and values of the Charity.

Our client is the leading UK charity specialising in a whole person approach to helping people live well with the impact of cancer. The way in which they help people is known as the Bristol Whole Life Approach which provides a powerful combination of physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual support that is designed to help anyone affected by cancer, at any stage of the disease. They do this through residential courses, group sessions and 1-2-1 complementary therapies. They work in partnership with many major healthcare providers and their services are underpinned by evidence based research.
