The Family Support Hub Officer will help us to deliver our programme of work for children’s health and social care services to improve and expand the range of support that they can offer to families.

Reporting to: Head of Fundraising & Communications

Would you like to be part of an innovative, friendly and dynamic team committed to making a difference by supporting people affected by domestic and sexual abuse? Yellow Door is seeking a motivated Trusts & Corporate Fundraising Officer who shares our values and our vision for a world where adults, families, young people and children can live without experiencing domestic and sexual abuse and the resulting devastating impacts.
This is a new role and a chance to make a big difference to the number of people we can reach in the local area affected by domestic and sexual abuse. It is part of our wider plan to increase the fundraising capacity of the charity, with a significant amount of untapped potential, so it is an exciting time to join and make the role your own.

Ideally, we are looking for someone with experience in researching and writing compelling funding applications and managing relationships with funders, but who also has experience of working with corporate partners of all sizes. There is some flexibility as to which income streams the successful candidate would spend the majority of their time on – depending on their experience. In an ideal world we are looking for someone to cover both equally but please don’t be put off by the job description if you have more experience in one area than the other - for us willingness to learn and transferrable skills count for a lot.

An average week might involve finding new local businesses to approach, working with internal teams to research and write grant applications, meeting with funders or corporate partners, pitching to a potential new corporate partner or going to speak to their employees about their fundraising. It might be representing the charity at a corporate fundraiser or a networking event. There will also likely be a Capital Appeal, so any experience in running appeals will stand you in good stead. As you would expect working for a local charity no two days are the same and we all ‘muck in’ – which is part of what will make working for Yellow Door so enjoyable.

Responsibilities will include:

- Identify and research new Trust, Grant, Foundation, and Corporate funding opportunities for both restricted and unrestricted Yellow Door projects.
- Build and maintain a robust pipeline of potential funding opportunities.
- Plan, prepare, and write compelling and persuasive proposals, applications, and presentations for funding and new partnerships.
- Manage relationships with existing and prospective partners across Companies, Trusts, and Foundations.
- Establish effective relationships with new Companies, Trusts, Foundations, and other funding bodies to secure long-term funding and support.
- Achieve income targets that support the delivery of the service and fundraising goals.
- Collaborate with the Volunteering and Involvement team to maximise events and outreach opportunities in the local community, providing information about Yellow Door and ways to get involved.
