Are you brilliant at establishing and developing long term relationships, and want to use your skills to support a charity which helps people across the Fylde coast live their lives to the full and live well to the very end? If you would like to join an organisation with a superb culture where you are encouraged as a fundraiser to test, learn and innovate, this could be the opportunity you have been looking for.
Trinity and Brian House Hospice believe in focusing on the positives within palliative care, providing patients with relief from the symptoms, pain, and stress of a serious illness to improve quality of life for them and their loved ones. They do this through recognising that each person has individual needs and caters to these needs through offering their services in the hospice, the hospital, at home, or residential care home. They are looking for a Community & Corporate Fundraiser to support them to continue to achieve their mission of Enabling Compassionate Care on the Journey to End of Life.
This is an exciting time to join Trinity Hospice as they prepare for a series of high-profile fundraising and awareness initiatives ahead of their subsequent anniversary years.
About the Role
The Corporate Fundraiser will work closely with the Corporate and Community Fundraising Manager to secure new relationships across the Fylde Coat, developing a pipeline of sustainable income. You will identify and secure new opportunities, including corporate partnerships, sponsorships, CRM initiatives, Charity of the Year programs, and gift in-kind donations.

Working collaboratively with the fundraising team, you will help prepare and deliver corporate sponsorship proposals for all Trinity Hospice events, products and campaigns. You will also plan and facilitate corporate engagement events with the aim of increasing brand awareness amongst local businesses and convert corporate supporters. You'll maintain a donor-centric approach to fundraising, ensuring that current supporters feel appreciated and building long-term holistic relationships.
About You
This role would suit someone who is a natural relationship builder with a talent for finding creative ways to connect with corporate supporters while attracting new businesses opportunities. You'll have worked in a fundraising or business development environment before and will have a track record of meeting financial targets and balancing a demanding workload with competing deadlines.
We'd love to see applications from people with a growth mindset, who are looking to increase their understanding of fundraising and build on the skills they already have. You'll be an excellent communicator who can work collaboratively in a creative and innovative way. You'll be organised with excellent attention to detail, and most importantly, you'll be passionate about providing everyone across Blackpool and the Fylde coast access to high-quality and consistent end-of-life care.
This role requires a full driving licence with access to a car as you will be spending time out and about across the region as well as being on site at the hospice.
If you are interested in this role, please get in touch with a copy of your CV to Ellen Drummond at Charity People in the first instance, who will be happy to provide lots more information including how to apply.
Deadline for applications: Monday 20th January
