For over 50 years our research has saved lives. We’ve broken new ground, revolutionised treatments and transformed care. But heart and circulatory disease still kills one in four people in the UK.  That’s why we need you.

About the role

We are recruiting for a Fundraising Manager  to work jointly with our existing Fundraising Manager covering the Greater Manchester region. Our Community Fundraising team has ambitious targets to help us in our fight for every heartbeat and we are investing in our team to help us achieve these goals.

You’ll be maximising income and awareness for the BHF within your patch through proactively securing and managing community fundraising partnerships and recruiting and managing networks of fundraising groups, supporters and volunteers. Other responsibilities include proactively building and developing fundraising groups and recruiting individual volunteers and supporters; securing fundraising partnerships; and delivering national campaigns, local projects and maximising community engagement.

About you

The successful candidate will have a proven track record in securing Corporate partnerships and  fundraising at a community level or strong evidence of transferable experience, for example an outstanding track record in sales or account management. You’ll have excellent communication, networking and relationship building skills.

This is a brilliant opportunity to join our ambitious team looking to continue our recent track record of fantastic growth. We're looking for people who are as ambitious as we are as well as being experts in their fields to help our vision become a reality. We're brave, informed, driven and compassionate in our fight against heart disease and, if that sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you.

You will also need a full UK driving licence plus previous experience of working remotely and be able to demonstrate an ability to manage and motivate yourself.

Please note this is a home-based position and you will need to live in the area of Greater Manchester.
