Marie Curie is the UK's leading end-of-life charity. We are the largest non-NHS provider of end-of-life care in the UK, the only provider across all 4 nations, delivering community nursing and hospice care across the country, while providing information and support on all aspects of dying, death, and bereavement. Our leading research pushes the boundaries of what we know about good end-of-life, and our campaigns fight for a world where everyone gets to have the best possible quality of life while living with an illness they're likely to die from.

The ripple effect of your work is profound!

- Collaborate with local businesses, Marie Curie Retail staff, and other fundraising teams to support initiatives.
- Meet annual budgets and performance targets, providing timely updates and monthly reports to the Head of Region.

- Proven experience managing volunteers or community engagement in a paid or voluntary capacity.
- Exceptional interpersonal and networking skills, with the ability to inspire and motivate.
- Strong organisational abilities, including planning, prioritisation, and working to budgets and targets.

Your fundraising could help keep this beloved heritage railway on track.

Salary | £35,000 - £40,000 FTE
Contract | 38 hours full-time, reduced hours contract considered
Location | Based in Bury, hybrid working and flexibility on office/home pattern
Benefits | 20 days holiday (+bank) and 3% employer pension contribution, free rail travel and UK national rail discounts, range of brilliant health and wellbeing support

The East Lancashire Light Railway isn't just a heritage railway - it's a living, breathing part of the North West's story. From restored steam engines and scenic journeys to immersive education projects and volunteer-powered restoration, ELR has been igniting imaginations and connecting generations for over 35 years.

They're now looking for their first ever Fundraising Lead. A passionate, proactive and strategic fundraiser who will power up income generation and help secure the future.

Why this role matters

As a charity, ELR depends on the generosity of individuals, trusts, corporate partners and communities who believe in the mission - to preserve, protect and bring to life an irreplaceable part of Lancashire and Britain's shared history.

From repairing historic bridges to conserving locomotives and creating enriching experiences at the Transport Museum, fundraising supports every corner of the operation. And right now, there's a real appetite and willingness to take it to the next level.

This is a rare opportunity to build something from the ground up. You'll lead on creating an income generation strategy that balances fresh creativity with solid fundraising foundations. By shaping compelling campaigns, nurturing supporters and building long-term relationships, you'll begin to embed a culture of giving across the railway.

What you'll be doing

• Lead and coordinate all aspects of fundraising, acting as the go-to person for internal and external stakeholders.
• Develop a refreshed case for support and compelling messaging.
• Build and manage relationships with trusts, corporates, individuals and patrons.
• Shape creative donor recognition schemes, from naming opportunities to plaques and events.
• Co-create fundraising content and campaigns across platforms.
• Develop understanding of social impact and community reach.
• Be a visible ambassador out in the world.

About you

We're looking for a skilled and motivated fundraiser with a love for stories, a head for strategy, and a heart for community.

You'll need to bring:

• Fundraising experience, ideally across multiple income streams (ticking one or more boxes from trusts/foundations, individual giving, corporate partners).
• A knack for crafting a compelling case for support and proposals that pack a punch.
• The drive to take initiative and work independently, as well as collaborating and thriving alongside colleagues and volunteers.
• A genuine passion for heritage, culture or community, but you don't need to be a railway enthusiast (though they'll happily help to convert you!).

This is a role for a builder and creator, someone excited to take ownership of a fundraising strategy and have the confidence to deliver.

Why join us?

This isn't just a desk job. You'll be surrounded by volunteers in overalls, engineers working on engines, school groups full of questions, and a loyal public who care deeply about the railway.

Whether you're looking to step into your first leadership role or bring your seasoned experience to something with heart and heritage, this is your ticket.

To apply, all you need to do is send a copy of your CV or brief overview of your career/profile to Amelia Lee as the first step.

We'll then be back in touch with further details on the application process, providing your experience meets the brief.

Closing date: 9am on Friday 25th April
Interviews: Dates to be confirmed soon

Charity People actively promotes equality, diversity, and inclusion. We match charity needs with the skills and experience of candidates, irrespective of age, disability (including hidden disabilities), gender, gender identity, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, or sexual orientation. We do this because we know greater diversity will lead to even greater results for the charities we work with.

This is an opportunity to take on a new leadership position in a unique educational charity. As part of our succession planning, Number Champions is recruiting a CEO to take on all management of the charity and to help the board define and deliver its strategy. This will be our most senior staff position.

Background - Number Champions

We train volunteers to use games and other creative activities in primary schools in one-to-one sessions with children to help them gain confidence and skills in maths. This support helps put children on track to achieve their full potential in a world where numeracy is a vital building block. Over half the children we support are from disadvantaged backgrounds, which is where the need is greatest.

Founded in 2018, we have already helped over 1,500 children. We now have 115 volunteers running weekly sessions. This year they are helping 334 children in 38 partner schools across London, and we plan to continue to grow organically every year to support more children.

Our vision is not just that we grow in scale, but that through our example other organisations copy our model, and that eventually all primary school children will have access to volunteer support in maths.

CEO role

The CEO will be a new permanent role, reporting to our founder Chair and to the board of trustees. You will take on all aspects of managing our award-winning charity and drive the board process of setting and delivering strategy. This will include financial management of the charity and involvement in fundraising. This is in the context of our succession plan, whereby our Chair will hand over the executive responsibilities which he currently exercises on a pro bono basis. This is to allow us to recruit a new Chair within two years.

You will line manage the Head of Operations - our current senior employee, who manages our other two staff. The role will be part time for the equivalent of 3 days a week.

Location

You will work mainly remotely, although you will be expected to attend periodic meetings in London. We therefore require candidates to live within commuting distance of Central London, giving maximum flexibility for both the employee and the charity.

Person specification

Candidates must be able to show previous success as a member of the Senior Leadership Team of a charity. You should be a collaborative worker able to build productive working relationships with people throughout the charity and beyond. As continuing our growth is a strategic goal, we need you to have experience in marketing.

We have a high-performing staff team, and a key requirement is that you are able to continue to develop the team. You therefore need the interpersonal skills to keep the existing staff motivated, productive, and appreciated. You will also require the confidence to implement changes you identify as important. As you will take over all the executive responsibilities of the charity’s founder Chair, you will also need the sensitivity to navigate any resultant issues.

The full role and person specification is attached to this advertisement.

If you believe you are a good candidate but you do not meet the exact requirements we have set, please do apply explaining why you are well qualified.

Potential

There is huge potential for you to develop the charity to support many more children while maintaining or improving quality of delivery. You will also have the opportunity to identify and achieve additional strategic goals.

In parallel, you will be able to progress your own career in an organisation with a positive culture, whose trustees, staff, and volunteers are passionate about improving children’s educational and life chances.

We hope that you will be motivated to apply to our role.

Do you want to be part of the team in a charity that has a 135-year history of combating the challenges arising from deprivation and social exclusion in East London?

Our mission at St. Hilda’s East is to equip our service users with the resilience to navigate modern life. We welcome everyone into our spaces and work together to deliver engaging activities, promote social contact and ultimately enrich lives. 

Located in Tower Hamlets, we welcome people of all ages to our large, friendly community centre in Shoreditch where we offer a wide range of activities promoting wellbeing and social connections. Our services include sensory play for Under-5’s, youth programmes, wellbeing activities for those experiencing mental health issues, bilingual advice, and activities to reduce social isolation and enhance physical and mental wellbeing for older people. We also run a day centre in Shadwell, where we care for elders from the Bangladeshi and other communities. 

We employ over 40 staff and engage about 65 volunteers each year. In a recent survey of our staff, more than three-quarters reported St Hilda's as a great place to work, and this role will help embed best practice relating to employment and volunteering to ensure we can build upon this positivity. The postholder will work closely with our Senior Leadership Team and the Board, including a Trustee who has several decades experience as a HR manager and consultant. The role would highly suit someone in the early stages of their career in HR wishing to expand upon their experience or, alternatively, someone with a career in HR behind them, looking for a change of scene and to get involved in a mission driven charity. 

The postholder will provide support and guidance on HR matters to all staff and managers, helping to foster a positive and inclusive workplace culture. Our newly refreshed strategic priorities include a commitment to increasing volunteer participation within the charity’s work, and the postholder will play a key role in implementing this priority by improving our procedures and enhancing our capacity.     

This job is for you, if you: 

• Have at least 2 years’ experience in HR administration and practice, ideally within the charity sector.
• A good working knowledge of employment legislation and best practice in people management. 
• The ability and passion to drive forward an agenda around staff and volunteer engagement and wellbeing. 
• Ability to write organisational policies.
• Demonstrable knowledge of best practice around volunteer management, or the ability to learn quickly. 

Benefits include flexible working arrangements including the option to split your time approximately half-and-half between the office and home, 25 days annual leave, and access to an Employee Assistance Programme.

Closing date for applications: Monday 28th April at 23:59

Interviews will be held in the week commencing 5th May.
