About New Beginnings Foundation
The New Beginnings Foundation is a charity that supports families whose children are in the child protection system in the Greater Manchester area.

We have grown since we began in 2018. We have now supported over 200 families, an ever-growing team and our turnover is approximately £200k p.a.

About Us
Save the Children UK believes every child deserves a future. 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 you
As our Fundraising and Engagement Manager, you will have the opportunity to maximise individual and corporate financial contribution through effective, supporter-led acquisition, and account management.
In this role, you will:
• Drive growth in our key income streams of regional corporates and ‘in aid of' fundraising individuals through new business and account management and pipeline management.
• Manage multiple priorities simultaneously whilst providing the highest level of stewardship to all supporters.
• Contribute to the growth and development of the regional pipeline of partnership opportunities for our key income streams.
• Contribute to departmental income reporting, budgeting and forecasting.
• Ensure that the pipeline of prospects and partners is kept up to date across all income streams.
To be successful, it is important that you have:
• Experience in a fundraising, supporter care or admin role or experience within a sales environment.
• Strong relationship management and organisational skills.
• Creative, and can generate new and innovative ways to support partners and fundraisers, with a strong desire to succeed and a specific interest in stewarding fundraisers to maximise their fundraising whilst building strong relationships with the aim to convert individuals into long term supporters.
• Experience of managing multiple priorities simultaneously while still providing the highest level of stewardship to all supporters.

• Experience of financial budgeting and reporting and familiarity with a CRM ideally.
• The ability to keep clear and accurate records, producing reports and analysis and presenting them in an effective way to stakeholders.

• To have the best (and happiest) employees we focus on flexibility, inclusion, collaboration, health, and wellbeing both in and outside of work.
• We provide a wide range of benefits which will reward your hard work, motivate you, and inspire you to work to improve the lives of children every day.
The willingness and ability to travel across the UK a times and occasional work outside core hours is also essential.
Please note: To avoid disappointment, you are advised to submit your application as soon as possible as we reserve the right to close the vacancy early if a high volume of applications are received. This is to ensure that we can manage application levels whilst maintaining a positive candidate experience. Unfortunately, once a vacancy has closed, we are unable to consider further applications.
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 (up to 2-4 days per month or 6-8 days per quarter). 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.
Flexible Working - We are happy to discuss flexible working options at interview.
Commitment to Diversity & Inclusion:
Save the Children UK believes in a world that is fair, inclusive and equitable where all children have the opportunity to change their world. 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.
