Founded in 1685, the Royal Dragoon Guards (RDG) is an armoured cavalry regiment based in Warminster, Wiltshire The Regiment has a rich history, with strong historical roots in Ireland and Yorkshire. From the Battle of Waterloo, to firing the first and last shots of the First World War, to landing the first tanks in Normandy on D Day, to operating in the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts, the Regiment has always played a central role at the heart of the British Army.

We are looking for a talented individual to join the Royal Dragoon Guards as our Head of Engagement and Fundraising. In this pivotal role, you will drive engagement, communications and fundraising activity across the regimental family of around 15,000 soldiers, veterans and their families, with the aim of supporting our regimental mission and enhancing our charitable activities. If you are passionate about communications and fundraising, and dedicated to serving our regimental family, we want you on our team.

About the Role

Reporting to the Regimental Secretary, you will be responsible for designing and delivering engagement, communications and fundraising strategies that resonate with serving soldiers and officers, veterans and their families, as well as with external supporters such as corporate partners, trusts, and the general public. Your leadership will be crucial in fostering strong relationships and generating income for the Regimental Charity, ensuring we meet the core objectives of our Regiment.

Key Accountabilities

•  Develop and implement a comprehensive communications plan tailored to our regimental family and supporters.
• Develop and use multiple communications channels including website, social media (Instagram, Facebook, etc.), digital newsletters, events, media, and direct communications to increase engagement and awareness.
• Create and execute a robust fundraising plan with a focus on individual giving (including legacies), major donors, trusts, and corporate partnerships.
• Build and nurture strong, systematic relationships with donors and supporters, ensuring ongoing commitment and loyalty.
• Act as the public face of the Regiment, effectively communicating our mission, impact and fundraising needs at public events, conferences, and in media engagements.
• Develop systems, processes, and policies that underpin an efficient fundraising operation, including the implementation and management of a state-of-the-art CRM system for accurate supporter data.

Who We Are Looking For

We are seeking a hands-on, creative and strategic professional with a proven track record in communications, engagement and fundraising, and a strong empathy and affiliation with the work of the British Army. We are a small team, so you need to be able to think strategically but be hands-on in implementation. If you thrive in a military mission-driven environment and are eager to make a tangible difference in supporting our regiment and its legacy, you might be the perfect fit.

This role offers an exceptional opportunity to serve at the heart of a distinguished regiment and military charity. Your efforts will fortify engagement within our regiment, while driving the long-term success and sustainability of our charitable endeavours.

We are looking for a determined, skilled, proactive trusts fundraiser to join our small team in this newly created role to help stop children dying suddenly and without explanation.

Tragically, 1-2 seemingly healthy children die in the UK every fortnight, often going to sleep and never waking up. This incidence is unchanging. SUDC UK was founded in 2017 to raise awareness of Sudden Unexplained Death in Childhood (SUDC), encourage and fund scientific research and offer support and advice to affected families.  We believe SUDC research should receive more attention and scientific investment and are inspired by efforts to impact SIDS (cot death), where there has been an 80% reduction in infant deaths in the past 30 years. We can do so much more for SUDC children and their families.  

Why apply to SUDC UK? The post holder will be joining our ambitious, passionate, young charity, which consistently punches above its weight. SUDC remains relatively unknown to UK funders, but we are desperate to change this. Despite the current challenging trust fundraising environment, we are hopeful there are philanthropists and grant makers who will be inspired by our impact to date and the enormous potential to save young lives.
