Lia's Wings are looking to appoint a Fundraising Manager into a brand new role, at an incredibly exciting time for the charity. As the only aeroplane ambulance charity for children in the UK, we are experiencing a period of phenomenal growth, with incredible opportunities and potential for fundraising.
Being responsible for the management and delivery of our challenge events, special events and community fundraising activities, this role will involve working with some of our most committed supporters on a series of engaging (and fun) events that are continuing to grow year on year. The Fundriasing Manager will also be expected to support our corporate partners, and engage with our Family Fundraising efforts, giving them the opportunity to meet, and work with our incredible beneficiaries first-hand.
A hybrid role: this post will be mostly remote but will involve travelling to regular (fortnightly) team meetings in central London (Zone 1), or, our operating base at Biggin Hill Airport, and, to manage events across the UK throughout the year.
The perfect candidate for this role will have experience of managing various types of fundraising events, but first and foremost, we are looking for a consummate fundraiser who is passionate about stewarding fundraisers. We are looking for a fundraiser who can think outside the box, solve problems, and support supporters, donors and fundraisers of all levels, to ensure we maximise every opportunity we receive.
Reporting to the Head of Fundraising, this role will be integral to the growth of Lia's Wings, and is a fantastic opportunity for someone looking for a role at a small charity, where their efforts will make a real difference.
Over the last year we have had more people than ever before hoping to fundraise for Lia’s Wings, which has given rise to some fantastic new events being created (led by the charity), alongside several wonderful community-led partnerships with schools and social clubs around the UK.
Every year we also have a great uptake in classic charity challenges taking place both in the UK, and overseas, including the London Landmarks and Royal Parks Half Marathon, and the Berlin and Chicago Marathons. We have also had great success delivering our own, bespoke charity challenges, which we hope will continue into the future. For 2025, we are due to complete the second instalment of an annual Lia’s Wings Overseas Cycle Challenge, a Shark dive, Skydive and three peaks challenges, amongst many others, which this role would be expected to lead on, and develop for years to come.
Corporate Partnerships are one of our key income streams, with employees from dozens of companies supporting our events efforts. As well as managing these events, there would be a certain level of devolved account management with these partners, with the post holder becoming the primary point of contact for those firms.
We also have a growing network of community groups – including schools and social groups – who want to support Lia’s Wings as a partner charity. It is an area we would love to expand, with this role being crucial to the ongoing development of these areas.
And finally: for the past two years we have we also hosted a seasonal thank you party each Christmas (our “Jingle and Mingle”) which we hope will be another fantastic opportunity that can be developed by the right person in this role, as a real jewel in the crown of our events portfolio.
Key Responsibilities
- To manage our Challenge, Community, and Special Event fundraising streams, to achieve set targets.
- To grow income sustainably from our existing portfolio of events, ensuring continued high performance, engagement, and participation.
- To design, develop, and deliver new events that are suitable for our primary supporter audiences, alongside the Head of Fundraising.
- To effectively steward fundraisers to ensure an excellent supporter experience (resulting in positive fundraising performance, and repeat year on year participation), including appropriate thanking and recognition, reporting, and feedback on outcomes of events.
- To assume account management responsibility for smaller corporate and community partnerships (primarily engaged with the charity through events fundraising)
- To ensure a strong (in-person) team and volunteer presence at events.
- To support the Head of Fundraising on the delivery of our Corporate and Community Partnerships.
- To support our Family Support Team with the delivery of our Family Fundraising programme
- To build strong relationships with existing and potential stake holders, including event committees, and Trustees of the charity.
- To proactively manage event income and expenditure budgets, monitoring and reporting to the Head of Fundraising to support forecasting and budgeting processes, including monthly reconciliation.
- To manage all stock, consumables and promotional items related to these areas of fundraising.
- To maintain comprehensive recording-keeping relating to these areas of fundraising with existing tools including our CRM system, Salesforce.
- To attend fortnightly team meetings (in person) in London, and to attend other compulsory training days or events as required
- To support the Head of Engagement in preparing digital assets, including news pieces, photography, videography, and fundraiser case studies for our website and social media
- To ensure all practices meet statutory legislation requirements including the Data Protection Act, and Fundraising Code of Practice.
- To undertake any other duties appropriate to the post that by be required by the Head of Fundraising, including supporting the fundraising team with other in-person events throughout the year as they arise.
- At all times, to act as a role model, representing the vision and values of Lia’s Wings.
This will be a fast-paced role, and no two days may be the same, but, you will be able to go home every day knowing that you have changed, and saved the lives of children across the UK!
The charity requests no contact from recruitment agents at this time.

Charity People is delighted to be partnering with an incredibly inspiring health charity to help them find an experienced and motivated data professional to create an organisational data strategy and help revolutionise their approach to data.
You'll thrive on working with supporter data to make processes better, using automation to improve donor experience, driving a mission to retain and grow their supporter base.
The organisation is in their most exciting period of change for years. They are at the start of a large digital transformation programme, overhauling their current systems in multiple areas. As part of this, they are replacing their fundraising database and want to make sure their supporter data is connected and used well across the whole organisation.
They have recently started the project and chosen a CRM and partner to deliver it, but now they need someone to spearhead the data angle and drive the project forward alongside the Strategic Transformation Project Manager and Data Manager.
We are looking for someone who has either led or been heavily involved with a CRM migration before. The successful person will understand the importance of putting data at the heart of driving decision making, and the importance of customer or supporter journey and acquisition.
This is a real opportunity to build an incredible legacy within a passionate charity, building on great work that's been done so far and helping to take it to the next level.
This role is an 18-24 month contract at present, though we anticipate other opportunities may present themselves at the end of this interim period. Our client's HQ is in the Warwickshire area and due to the nature of the role, the successful candidate will need to commute in on average 1-2 days per week, though some weeks not at all. Ultimately, you'll be driven by the needs of the project.
If you have a background in data excellence and being part of Data migrations or transformations in the past, we'd love to hear from you. Feel free to drop me a line or give me a call directly.
There is real opportunity within this role to be exposed to all areas of a nonprofit organisation as you build relationships across all team and witness them also joining up data from their shops to their finance team too. This is a rare and wonderful opportunity to leave a massive imprint on a household name.
Please note that due to an organisational need to get this position filled, we may close this before the stated date, should our client deem there to be enough suitable applicants.
If you are interested in this new role, please email your most recent CV to Neil Hogan at Charity People.
