Sight Scotland is Scotland’s leading charity providing specialist care, education and research for people with vision impairment. The charity has been in existence for over 230 years, and offer a variety of services in the community as well as education, transcription into alternative formats and residential care for adults and children. Their vision is of an inclusive Scotland where people of all visual abilities have the opportunity to thrive. To achieve their mission they are looking for a Supporter Fundraiser who will proactively engage with supporters, community groups and volunteers in the community.

The Fundraising Manager – Legacies and Individual Giving is responsible for developing and implementing plans to maximise income from individual donors and legacy gifts. This is achieved through innovative campaigns that grow our supporter base, drive donations, legacy pledges and gifts as well as strengthening our brand.

The role supports the organisation’s purpose to make a significant impact on the lives of people living with visual impairment in Scotland by maximising fundraising income to deliver brilliant services and create a positive impact on our ability to deliver for the long term. 

This role would suit someone who is already operating at a senior fundraiser or manager level, with significant experience of individual giving especially as we see so much potential there.
