In the UK and around the world, we work every day to give children a healthy start in life, the opportunity to learn, and protection from harm. When crisis strikes, and children are most vulnerable, we are always among the first to respond and the last to leave. We ensure children's unique needs are met and their voices are heard. We deliver lasting results for millions of children, including those hardest to reach.
About the role
As Senior Community Fundraising Optimisation Lead, you will play a key role in driving continuous improvement within our regional fundraising team.
You will identify and implement efficiencies in project management and operational planning, explore new community fundraising audiences, and support strategic planning around income generation opportunities.
You will not directly manage people but will lead cross-functional project teams to deliver impactful fundraising initiatives. Your work will focus on building a culture of continuous learning, innovation, and collaboration across the team.
In this role, you will:
• Identify improvements and efficiencies in how we manage projects and operational planning across the regional fundraising team.
• Lead on agile resourcing across regional fundraising specialisms, especially where new growth opportunities arise.
• Develop cases for new community fundraising audiences and explore opportunities to generate income from "unrestricted moments".

Working for a charity provides one of the best benefits there is – a sense of purpose and reward for helping others. However, we understand the importance of giving back to our employees to ensure a happy and healthy working environment and work/life balance.
We focus on flexibility, inclusion, collaboration, health, and wellbeing both in and outside of work.
We provide a wide range of benefits that will reward your hard work, motivate you, and inspire you to work to improve the lives of children every day. You can read more about our benefits here.

Ways of Working:
The majority of our roles can be performed remotely in the UK, but there are likely to be times when you will be required to come to your contracted office (approximately 2 days per month.) This will be agreed with your Line Manager and team and is intended to be time spent on collaborating with colleagues and relationship building.
Please note: travel costs to your contracted office will be at your own expense.

We apply this to our workforce and we are committed to developing and supporting a diverse, equitable, and inclusive organisation where all employees have a sense of belonging and feel that they can be "Free to Be Me".
We are not looking for just one type of person - we want to recruit people who can add fresh perspectives, innovative ideas or challenge that disrupts the risk of group think.
We are especially interested in people whose childhood experiences - of life on a low income, of migration, of being in a racialised community, of the care system, of being LGBT+ or in an LGBT+ family or living with (or with someone with) a disability - help us to see things we might otherwise miss. Whatever your story is we want to hear it because we know that different voices, ideas, perspectives and knowledge, working together will enable us to better the lives of children around the world. This is the reason why we are all here.
