Founded in 1991, The Anne Frank Trust UK is the UK partner of the Anne Frank House Amsterdam. "I'll make my voice heard, I'll go out into the world and work for humankind!" wrote Anne Frank in her diary on 12 March 1944.

You will be committed to equality with the skills to engage 9 to 15-year-olds through learning and empowerment.

You will be highly organised, with excellent administration skills, and able to build and maintain effective relationships. You will use your initiative, creativity, and energy to solve problems and develop new ways of working. You will have an inspiring presentation style with warm, professional interpersonal skills. The successful candidate will be enthusiastic about Anne Frank and the work of the Anne Frank Trust UK.

The role is home-based within the Essex region or in East London (Colchester or Southend are preferred). Ideally you will have access to appropriate working space which can be discussed at interview.

Be part of a Wilder Future

To help create a wilder future for Staffordshire, we are seeking a driven and passionate Head of Fundraising and Development who can develop and deliver a fundraising strategy to significantly grow our income.

Hours: Full time 35 hours per week

Salary: £50,000 per annum

Contract: Permanent

The Role

Staffordshire Wildlife Trust had an income of £4.7m in year ending March 2024, and this has grown again in the last 12 months. To push ahead with the Trust’s vital work to restore the natural environment across Staffordshire, and to meet the strategic goals by 2030, the Trust needs to increase its revenue substantially.

You’ll be leading a dedicated fundraising and communications team currently made up of 10 staff but set to grow. This position is a new one, and one of the key recommendations of a fundraising research assignment conducted at the end of 2024. 

The Head of Fundraising and Development will report to the Chief Executive and be a member of the Senior Leadership Team. 

Key tasks include:

• Develop and implement a five-year fundraising strategy

• Develop a fundraising culture across the Trust 

• Co-develop bottom-up, evidence-led income forecasts with your team and relevant Senior Leadership Team members

You will be an effective leader, comfortable delegating authority in areas where you have less expertise to the experts in your team.

An inspiring leader, you will have exceptional people management skills, with the ability to influence at all levels.  You should be willing to work flexibly as your team requires it, this may involve working at events outside of normal hours to support your team.

You will have experience of:

• Growing voluntary income in charities across a range of channels

• Successful fundraising across grants (charitable trusts, the National Lottery and Landfill Communities Funding), companies, individual giving, major donors and legacies

• Managing membership schemes and an understanding of generating income from Trading activities would be an advantage

• Change management, and an understanding that sustainable change requires taking people with you, and that this requires consultation, patience, flexibility and adaptability

• Developing, implementing and evaluating strategy across a range of income streams will be business as usual for you.

Your experience should be heavily-weighted towards fundraising rather than communications, although an understanding of communications and how it supports fundraising, is essential.
