You will be comfortable trying new things and in being adaptable; we want to scale our public fundraising activity and are applying a ‘test and learn’ approach. The primary objective will be to raise funds to support our life transforming work, but also to raise awareness and understanding of eating disorders, and help establish SWEDA as the eating disorder specialist across the South & West. 

We are looking for a candidate who has the necessary skills and experience to fulfil the following role:

MAIN DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES

• Plan, lead and deliver on income generation plans for individuals (including regular giving and appeals), community and corporate fundraising to grow SWEDA’s income year on year.
• Forge and cultivate relationships with supporters – individuals and businesses – in person, on the phone and through SWEDA’s communications channels.

• Monitor, evaluate and report against agreed performance indicators
• Work collaboratively with the Head of Fundraising and other team members to maximise income generation opportunities

• Use data insight to drive decision making and improve performance.
• Plan and implement an effective stewardship plan which prioritises personalised long term relationships.
• Effectively use the CRM to record and manage your work, capture donor information/consents and support strategic planning.
