Why Woking and Sam Beare Hospice and Wellbeing?
Woking & Sam Beare Hospice and Wellbeing Care is a charity that cares for thousands of patients and their carers and families each year. They specialise in delivering holistic care for patients with complex life-limiting and terminal illnesses. At the Hospice they understand that everyone will want to approach hospice care slightly differently. This is why they offer a wide range of dedicated care services including through their InPatient Unit, in patients' own homes as well as through the Bradbury Wellbeing Centre. They hope that with all these options available, people will be able to find care in a way most suited to the patient and their family.
Fundraising is the backbone of Woking & Sam Beare Hospice and Wellbeing Care and these essential services are made possible, in part, due to the exceptional fundraising the team does.
What this role entails?
The focus of this role is to support the Income Generation Manager with the expectations of existing high value partners but also to assist with the development of a pipeline of new individuals and local businesses / corporates that have the propensity to generate income for the Hospice. This role is very much focused on assisting the Income Generation Manager with networking, relationship building and stewardship of supporters, as well as assisting with community supporter-led fundraising.
With the rest of the team, the postholder will assist in the delivery of a strategy to substantially increase in future fundraising income by positioning the Hospice as the local charity of choice for the communities we serve.
To be successful in this role:
* You will have experience working within a fundraising role or the ability to demonstrate transferable skills from a highly effective customer services or stakeholder management role.
* Ideally, you will have some experience of researching new business/prospects or pipeline building.
* You will need to have excellent experience of relationship building.
