We work with leading fundraising specialists throughout the UK to refine our approach and deliver outstanding results for one of the UK’s leading animal welfare charities.

Why become part of World Horse Welfare’s team?

Horses might be part of our DNA but they don’t have to be part of yours. World Horse Welfare has plenty of passionate equine experts already in situ, so provided you share our values of being realistic, compassionate and forward-thinking then you could be the perfect candidate.

We care about our people because they are the ones who enable us to achieve such good work. We invest in them, nurture them and listen to them to create a collaborative working environment where everyone feels valued.

Benefits include a generous pension scheme and cash health plan, paid employee sickness absence scheme, a minimum of 31 days’ holiday (including bank/public holidays and mandatory shutdown between Christmas and New Year) and death in service.

World Horse Welfare’s values are grounded in pragmatism and compassion as we strive to support and strengthen the horse-human partnership in all its guises through a combination of care, research, education and influence. The charity promotes and protects welfare across the full spectrum of the equine world including horses in need, sport and leisure horses, and horses used in work and production in marginalised communities worldwide.

Working within the Engagement & Communications team, you will contribute to the success of fundraising at Cruelty Free International and its affiliated group of companies’. Using your knowledge and expertise, you will work to increase our individual giving income by being responsible for in-house fulfilment and response handling for our direct mail appeals.

Working closely with our data and administration teams you will maintain effective response handling, ensuring donations are processed in line with best practice guidelines, donors are thanked promptly and supporter records on our CRM are maintained and updated. 

Between mass mailings you will work closely with the wider engagement and communications team to deliver outward-bound communications tasks, such as ongoing targeted telephone fundraising campaigns, calling potential and existing supporters to acquire new donors and reactivate lapsed donors. Using your excellent communication skills to increase engagement, income and drive long-term relationships.

You will have excellent time management skills and be an enthusiastic self-starter with a hands-on approach, capable of working independently or as part of a multi-disciplined team. Your fundraising knowledge and experience will help advance animal protection on the international stage.
