You will be from a corporate fundraising or sales/business development background within the private, public or charitable sector. You will have a commercially-minded yet mission-driven approach grounded by experience in managing a supporter or sales pipeline, and of prioritising prospects to deliver the best return on investment. We would expect you to be comfortable with the need to achieve income generation-related targets. You will be a great communicator with a personable style who can work with many different people across the wonderful variety of geography, business development and activities of the Wildlife Trust. 

To succeed and be happy in your role, you will enjoy making both face-to-face pitch presentations and writing successful fundraising or sales proposals – and, of course, contributing to our core purpose: to bring wildlife back, empower people to take action for nature and create a society where nature matter. This is a new role which will evolve following your appointment so you should be excited by the flexibility and opportunities to take an innovative approach.

Who we are

We also work with other organisations and landowners to protect and connect wildlife sites across the county and inspire local communities and young people to care for wildlife where they live.
