We pursue our mission through education, research implementation, advocacy and capacity building with our member societies.

(For further detail about this role, please review the attached Job Description and Person Specification).   

We are an equal opportunities employer and are proud to employ a workforce that reflects the diverse communities we serve. We welcome applications from all suitably qualified persons from all backgrounds. We are an equal pay champion and we don't ask salary history.  

Location: The role is based from FIGO House, Waterloo, London SE1 with 'blended / hybrid working' i.e. with combined office and remote working. 

Join us to play a vital role in raising funds so that Catching Lives can meet the increasing need for our homelessness services. As Fundraising Officer, you'll work closely with the CEO as part of an enthusiastic, dedicated team of staff and volunteers.

Catching Lives will support you to join the Level Three Fundraiser Apprenticeship at the University of Kent and provide day study release during the programme, which is mostly taught online. This is an excellent opportunity to grow your knowledge and skills for a career in charity fundraising. For more information see the recruitment pack.

The role requires strong communication and organisational skills. You’ll manage a varied workload, including public-facing responsibilities such as attending events and engaging supporters across the community, alongside desk-based activities around data, finance and planning. You’ll be supported to apply your transferable skills and to develop as a fundraiser.

Access to higher education and the life-changing opportunities that come from attending the most competitive universities is not equal. 28 in 100 of the most advantaged students progress to the most competitive universities. In contrast, only 2 in 100 of the least advantaged young people access these universities.

We think this is fundamentally unfair. We work across the UK to support less advantaged students to access the most competitive universities, and to succeed when they get there.

Between 2021 and 2026, we will work with 100,000 students across the UK to help them to develop the knowledge, skills and confidence to access the most competitive universities. We will also support 10,000 students from disadvantaged backgrounds to succeed once they enter universities.

We hope that you’ll consider joining us, as we work to create a fairer society where no child’s education is limited by their background.
