Campaign Manager Jobs

Waverley Care is looking for a new Fundraising Manager specializing in individual giving and legacies, with a secondary focus on philanthropic giving.

Waverley Care is Scotland's leading HIV and hepatitis C charity. The organisation has been at the forefront of providing care for those impacted by HIV and AIDS since 1989. Waverley Care now approaches a seminal moment as they close in on Scotland being one of the first countries in the world to get new HIV transmission down to zero by 2030. 

To ensure they can meet the ambition, growth and expansion the charity sees in its future, the fundraising team has been invested in, including creating this new role. The fundraising team is in a good place and just needs the right person to join the charity to provide the remaining missing puzzle piece.

The successful candidate for the role of Fundraising Manager for Individual Giving, Legacies and Major Donors will be someone who has previously held responsibility for delivering individual giving campaigns and is looking to broaden their remit to include other income streams and line management. You will be skilled in providing an excellent supporter journey, and able to apply the fundamentals of gold standard stewardship to other income streams such as with major donors.

The role would suit someone who is excited by potential and is ambitious. Who can lead an individual giving campaign and be a credible expert for IG within Waverley Care. It is likely that the successful candidate will have been operating at a senior fundraiser level or perhaps as a sole fundraiser for a smaller charity, and is looking to take on a team of their own.

This role is hybrid based, with some presence expected at Waverley Care head office in Edinburgh for meetings and to build relationships across the wider team.

Our commitment to diversity

Diversity is one of our core values as an organisation and we are committed to creating an inclusive working environment where diversity is valued and there is equality of opportunity.

Currently, the environmental sector is the second least diverse in the UK, with just 4.8% of employees from ethnic minority backgrounds. If the environmental movement is to succeed in creating a greener future that supports society as a whole, we need diverse voices at the heart of our programmes. We therefore encourage people from demographics that are currently underrepresented in the environmental movement to apply. 

Guaranteed interview scheme

We particularly encourage applications from people from ethnic minority backgrounds or living with a disability or long-term health conditions. We will offer an interview to any candidates from ethnic minority backgrounds or living with a disability who opt into our Guaranteed Interview Scheme when applying and who meet the essential criteria for this role.
