Job description

Entry Level Fundraiser

Are you looking for the ideal summer job? Would you like to work at the home to Northern Ireland’s largest seabird colony?

We are looking for a seasonal fundraiser to work at the stunning Rathlin seabird centre for the 2025 season, and it could be you!

You don’t have to have fundraising experience, as full training will be provided.

Position: Fundraiser

Ref: JAN20255238

Location: Rathlin Island

Hours: Full-Time

Salary: £24,890.00 - £26,720.00 per Annum

Contract: 6 months

Closing Date: Sun, 9th Feb 2025. Please note that we are actively recruiting for this vacancy and reserve the right to close once sufficient applications have been received.

What’s the role about?

Located 6 miles away from Ballycastle, Rathlin Island is the only inhabited offshore island in Northern Ireland. Comprised of rugged cliffs, unimproved grassland and several lakes, Rathlin island is an idyllic workplace.

The team have been delivering exemplary visitor experience for over 16 years, making the reserve a serious opportunity for fundraising and membership recruitment. As a core part of both the Rathlin team and the Face to Face membership teams, you be working alongside staff and volunteers to welcome visitors to the reserve and enthuse them about the conservation importance of the site. You will be expected to role model best practices for reserve fundraising to inspire new memberships.

What we are looking for

Given that this position is based on Rathlin island, the ideal candidate will live within 20 miles of Ballycastle harbour. You don’t have to have fundraising experience - full training will be provided.

Expert knowledge of Northern Irish wildlife is not a pre-requisite, but a passion for conservation, an ability to employ effective communication skills and an eagerness to learn are essential. You need a passion for saving nature, an engaging personality, the ability to present a compelling reason to support the charity, communicate confidently and be happy to work toward targets. This is a rewarding and enjoyable role with the only requirement to engage and inspire!

You may have worked in other areas where you have had to build face-to-face relationships, such as hospitality, customer service, sales, sustainability, conservation, campaigning, income generation, business development, retail, or in a volunteering capacity.

However, it is your skills we are interested in rather than your work experience, as you will receive fantastic training and ongoing support as you start your career. Your training will include a combination of training in English reserves, alongside existing Fundraisers and on the job at Rathlin. 

What’s in it for you

Join a team that is making a real difference and inspiring people to save nature! You will be working in a rewarding role where you can draw on your passions and interests. You will receive:

  • A 7-month contract that suits you – choose between 3, 4, and 5 days per week (7.5 hours on-site per day).
  • A set salary, rather than working to commission.
  • 34 days’ annual leave (including ten bank holidays (pro-rata for work pattern and length of contract))
  • Full training and comprehensive induction.
  • The 7-month contract will commence with training in March and active fundraising from April through to September.
  • There will be a probation period of 3.5 months.

Additional Information

Please note that in order to be considered for this position you will be asked to upload a CV and complete a short online application form.

This is a fixed-term position for 7 Months (the exact duration of the post can be negotiated). The charity reserves the right to extend or make this role permanent without further advertising dependent on business needs at the end of the contract term.

We are committed to developing an inclusive and diverse team, in which everyone feels supported, valued, and able to be their full selves. To achieve our vision of creating a world richer in nature, we need more people, and more diverse people, on nature’s side. People of colour and disabled people are currently underrepresented across the environment, climate, sustainability, and conservation sector. If you identify as a person of colour and/or disabled, we are particularly interested in receiving your application.

This role is not eligible for UK Visa Sponsorship - the successful applicant will need to have a pre-existing Right to Work in the UK to be offered an employment contract.

Before applying for this role, we recommend reading through the candidate guidance notes when you apply.

You may have experience in areas such as Fundraising, Fundraiser, Fundraising Office, Individual Giving Fundraiser, Membership Fundraising, Membership Fundraiser, Community Fundraiser, Customer Service, Hospitality, Retail

Please note: This role is being advertised by NFP People on behalf of the organisation
