Post Summary
Free Tibet is a small but effective campaign organisation based in south London. We’re looking for a Fundraising Manager who can transform our routine fundraising and lead expert strategies for income generation. This role is best suited to an experienced fundraiser who is confident in managing multiple streams of income and a small team. We welcome applications from candidates with diverse professional backgrounds, but you need to have worked in a fundraising management role before.
We are currently implementing a pay grading system at Free Tibet, offering increases with each year of service. The salary for this position starts at up to £45,000 based on the successful candidate’s experience.
Location
Our main office is in Brixton, south London. We encourage applications from candidates across the UK and are willing to discuss hybrid working, but ideally the successful candidate would be able to travel to the office at least one day per week. Some evening availability is also required for quarterly board meetings, which are carried out online.

Diversity is key to doing our best work for Tibetan freedom. We welcome applications from candidates with diverse professional and lived experiences.

We welcome applications from those who wish to return to the workplace after a period of absence.
Studies have shown that women and people of colour are less likely to apply for jobs unless they meet 100% of the criteria. If you’re excited about this role but your previous experience doesn’t align perfectly with the job description, we encourage you to apply.
Suitably qualified Tibetan candidates are strongly encouraged to apply.
