About Us

St John International is a global organisation – a family of charities whose ambition is to lead in first aid and medical responses to communities’ health needs. With 44 St John establishments across the world, we like to think of ourselves as the ‘scaffolding’ which supports our organisations. We do this by sharing best practice, offering practical and financial support and strategic direction to implement a gold standard of community and emergency care for the sick and the poor everywhere we work. Our focus is First Aid, Ambulance Services, Eye Care, and our Mother and Baby Programme.

Our impact is real, immediate, and lasting as we build stronger communities through our work. Our aim is continuously to improve the quality and scale of training and care we provide around the world, so that we can say with confidence that we represent the gold standard in everything we do. However, we want to do more. We are therefore launching a major fundraising initiative to support our work. We are grateful to an ambitious donor who has invested in a principal gift to create a new fundraising programme to create sustainable, reliable growth. 

What you will be doing

The Director of Fundraising will be a key member of our executive team reporting directly to the Secretary General. As our first Director of Fundraising, you will have the opportunity to build and develop your own team to help you deliver the fundraising strategy.

In taking forward the strategy, you will identify and articulate areas for support, research relevant funding potential and secure income through the development and execution of both the short and long-term fundraising strategy across the funding spectrum. You will have the confidence and experience to help us to deliver a longer-term strategic approach to continued fundraising, based on organisational and business objectives.

With our donor’s generous gift, we aim to build a thriving, major gifts programme which builds capacity and delivers a significant return on our donor’s investment. It is our aim to raise £15million over the next 4 years.

You will be responsible for building a fundraising team and leading fundraising in all areas, from major gifts relationships, completing complex bids to grant-making Trusts and Foundations and managing and utilising the skills of the Trustees and wider St John network.

1. PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES OF THE JOB

The Director of Fundraising will lead the continued development, co-ordination and delivery of our new fundraising strategy, to build and maintain philanthropic income.

The post holder will work under the direction of the Secretary General and Trustees to:

1. Deliver our new Fundraising Strategy which has been prepared, maximising resources through major donors, trusts and foundations, individual giving, corporates and legacies throughout the world.

2. Build a new fundraising team.

3. Act as an advocate and ambassador for the charity, building and prospecting new relationships with supporters, stakeholders and donors.

4. Work with colleagues to articulate and promote the charity’s unique message.

5. Mobilise potential supporters and advocates within our St John Family.

2. PRINCIPAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

a) Work with the St John International team and trustees to deliver the innovative and varied fundraising strategy.

b) Create and manage fundraising:  major donors, trusts and foundations, corporates, and legacies across the organisation.

c) Monitor, collect and manage information on relevant sources of funding, including public and charitable funds, commissioning and procurement, and emerging opportunities for income generation.

d) Develop, implement and oversee quality control, evaluation and reporting procedures to ensure a high standard of bid submission, monitoring and reporting at all times.

e) Build relationships with major donors and maintain good stewardship of donors and funders. We expect our contributor base to include international donors, and not just those who may be UK-based.

f) Research and write high quality grant applications and proposals for support.

g) Develop, pitch and manage sponsorship proposals and presentations.

h) Work with colleagues to embed opportunities for fundraising and fundraising events through other areas of the charity’s work.

5 billion people do not have access to safe, affordable surgical and anaesthesia care when needed. Can you help us address this neglected area of global health? 

Surgery and anaesthesia have a fundamental and growing impact on global health outcomes. Surgical intervention could address over 30% of the global burden of disease, and yet the poorest 33% of people receive just 3.5% of all surgery. Post-operative mortality rates 1,000 times higher than in some high-income countries can be found in parts of the world where surgery and anaesthesia have been neglected, and in some countries as many as 90% of anaesthetic departments do not have the equipment to provide a safe anaesthetic for a child. 

With 142 Member Societies made up of anaesthesiologists in 151 countries, WFSA is uniquely placed to influence these inequalities and help ensure universal access to safe surgery and safe anaesthesia.

This role offers huge scope for development and learning across a broad remit. You will contribute to our vision and mission and build the overall capacity of our programme team to deliver impactful project work across low-resource countries. As Project Manager you will support and lead delivery of project objectives and make sure critical milestones are delivered on target and within budget. You will also contribute to external and internal reports for specific projects.

This role sits within our Programme Team and reports to the head of the team. You will work closely with all members of the Secretariat (what we call our staff team), as well as many of our committees and other key stakeholders involved in project outcomes. Relationships with Member Societies and our Board and Council will also be important; an ability to interact across a range of stakeholders is essential.  /

Hybrid working is offered with up to three days per week able to be worked remotely and two days spent in our small office in North London. The role includes some international travel.

About DMI 

Development Media International (DMI) delivers media campaigns aimed at changing behaviours, promoting health and saving lives in developing countries. We are the first organisation to scientifically demonstrate that mass media can increase life-saving behaviours (see the results of our RCT that proved our interventions can save thousands of children’s lives, here). 

DMI has two priorities: first, to continue to generate ground-breaking research, second, to take our proven strategies to scale, saving as many lives as possible. We work across a range of health issues, including child survival, sexual and reproductive health, nutrition, hygiene, and early childhood development. DMI works in close partnership with leading experts in health, including WHO, UNICEF and LSHTM and has been funded by some of the world’s most prestigious organisations including the Wellcome Trust, FCDO, The Hilton Foundation, the Global Innovation Fund, Unorthodox Philanthropy, and the Mulago Foundation. 

We are an innovative organisation, working at the nexus between science and creativity. DMI has demonstrated that knowledge is not only a human right but is also the key to saving lives in a cost-effective way. Our intellectual rigour, enthusiasm, and willingness to learn from both our successes and mistakes, makes us distinct. By working at DMI you will have a genuine, measurable impact on improving lives in low-income countries. 

DMI’s HQ is near Kings Cross in London and the organisation has a permanent presence in Burkina Faso, Madagascar, Malawi, Mozambique, Tanzania, and Zambia. It also currently works in Mauritania, Uganda and Cote d’Ivoire.
