Communications Fundraising Officer Jobs in Marylebone, Greater London

At The Lullaby Trust our vision is clear: a world where no baby dies suddenly or unexpectedly, and every grieving family gets the support they need. We exist to keep babies safe and support bereaved families. 

We give families a safer start to life and create a supportive space for anyone whose baby or infant has died suddenly or unexpectedly. We empower families and health professionals with trusted advice on keeping babies safe, backed by research, and provide grieving families with bereavement support, side-by-side.

Since 1991 we have reduced the rate of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome by 82% and saved the lives of over 32,000 babies. But our work is not over, as three babies still die suddenly and unexpectedly a week. 

The Senior Trusts and Foundations Officer is an integral role within our Income and Engagement Team. We are seeking an enthusiastic and skilled fundraiser with a passion for securing five and six-figure donations from trusts, foundations and statutory bodies.

The post-holder should be driven to support the work of the charity to continue saving babies’ lives, and supporting bereaved families, and be motivated by our values by being Caring, Reassuring, Driven and Trustworthy in everything they do. 

The post-holder will have excellent communication and relationship-building skills and will be able to manage a wide-ranging portfolio of funders, and the prospect pipeline from start to finish. A key to achieving this will be embedding a deep understanding of The Lullaby Trust’s impact.
 
In this role you will be: 

1. Managing the Trust and Foundations programme 
2. Working with the wider team to deliver to income targets 

This role can be offered as a hybrid role (with approximately one day per week in our London office) or fully remote, with occasional visits to the office for meetings or staff days as necessary.

It is a key time to be joining The Lullaby Trust as we develop our new brand positioning, new website and creative direction, to help us reach more families and supporters than ever. We are a friendly, flexible employer and want to create a diverse and inclusive work environment for everyone.
