Reporting to the Senior Community Fundraiser and working closely with some of the most talented fundraising people in the charity sector, your role will be to provide fundraising and administrative support to the team. That sounds straightforward, but the role of Fundraising Assistant is so much more than the sum of its parts. By providing that core support, and great stewardship to supporters, the Fundraising Assistant role is considered by many in the team as the glue that holds Fundraising together! 

The role requires empathy, a desire to deliver fantastic customer service and great relationship building skills. Marie Curie’s Fundraising Assistants are often the first contact families using their services have with the fundraising side of the charity and hold the key to engaging families with fundraising whilst remaining respectful and sensitive.

This entry-level role is perfect for someone interested in joining the charity sector and wants to learn. We don’t expect you to necessarily have paid fundraising/charity experience for this role.
