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

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.

About Five Talents
Since we began, Five Talents has supported over 290,000 families globally to grow their incomes and provide for their families. We work in partnership with local organisations in east and central Africa to set up Savings Groups through which members can take small loans. Alongside Savings Group development, members also participate in literacy, numeracy, money management and business skills training. Consequently, members develop small businesses enabling families to send their children to school, visit the clinic when they are sick and become more resilient to crises such as drought or Coronavirus. Our role is to enable them to be ‘agents of their own change’ and equip the Groups to continue operating independently long after Five Talents’ support ends.
Five Talents has grown its income significantly over recent years despite the global and domestic challenges throughout that period, and we are determined to scale up even further. We know demand for our programmes will be higher than ever as communities seek to re-build their businesses and communities, and build resilience to drought and food insecurity.
We are the Anglican Church's microfinance charity, founded as a Christian response to global poverty - but of course people of all faiths (and none) join our programmes.
About this role
We are looking for someone who is passionate about international development to join our small Five Talents team to help us achieve our ambitious goals, and particularly to support our Trusts Fundraising team.
We are looking for a keen and enthusiastic individual to help the team achieve ambitious growth targets in Trusts & Foundations income. We are particularly interested in applications from those who have an interest in international development and/or have some previous fundraising experience.
We respect and value diversity of background, skills and perspectives within our teams. We are committed to conscious inclusion that helps build connection and shared purpose across the team. We believe that the more diverse we are, the better we become and we seek a range of voices and perspectives to enrich all that we do.
We understand that our colleagues have commitments and personal interests outside of work and we strive to build a flexible working environment, in which people can perform at their best. We are happy to discuss flexible working options for all roles.
We work to ensure that our recruitment processes are as inclusive as possible to everyone. This includes making adjustments for people who have a disability or long-term condition. If you would like us to make adjustments during the application process, please let us know.
There is no requirement for international travel for this post. However, it is highly recommended that all staff members visit programmes at least once every two years.
You will join us at an exciting time as we expand our programmes across eastern Africa and beyond. There will be scope for the right person to progress in the role according to their own strengths, and to grow with us. We believe our staff are our best and most important asset, and we’ll invest in developing your talents as you invest your talents in us.
