HorseWorld Trust was established in 1952, and is based in Whitchurch, near Bristol. Our highly trained Welfare department is committed to rescuing, rehabilitating and re-homing horses, ponies and donkeys in need and our ground-breaking educational programme, called Discovery, supports emotional growth and learning in young people through hands-on experience with rescued equines.
Our Philanthropy Coordinator will proactively track and manage a pipeline of next and existing High Net Worth Individuals and support HorseWorld's Major Donor Working Group comprising the Chair of Trustees, CEO and Heads of Departments. You will be expected to provide insight and identify opportunities for connection plus manage and track the stewardship tools to guide donors through their giving journey, including cultivation plans, sourcing and presenting tailored information for donors. Facilitating and attending meetings and events, both in person and online, you will be ensuring steps are being taken to nurture donor relationships.
Collaboration is key as you will work with colleagues and volunteers across the organisation to support HorseWorld's fundraising efforts.
You will also initiative the relationship management of a new portfolio of mid value donors and prospects; ensuring the donors you work with are engaged with our cause, and that you are responding to their individual stewardship needs as you keep them updated with our work.
This job is for you if :
- You are looking for a role where you can make a big impact in terms of increasing charity fundraising and individual giving - this job may further develop and grow
- You have the ability to collaborate effectively with a range of people using appropriate working styles to achieve team and organisational goals
- You possess excellent interpersonal and communication skills in order to build new relationships and enlist support
- You are able to present information in a format appropriate to target audiences/media/visitors - with excellent IT skills and data analysis
- You have a proven track record of achieving targets from a range of sources, are able to work independently and to deadlines - a true self-motivator but also an inclusive team player and performance driven
Understandably, such an involved role does require willingness to work outside normal office hours and on weekends/evening to support events. You will be prepared to provide cover for colleagues, when required, and a current full UK driving licence, plus own transport, is essential because you may be travelling within the South West region of the country.
