Development and Marketing Officer (Full time 35 hours a week) 
Starting salary: £28,922 

Newcastle upon Tyne 

At the Community Foundation Tyne & Wear and Northumberland, we share a love for North East England and believe in the importance of giving and philanthropy, backing local charities and championing disadvantaged people. Every year, we award grants to hundreds of local charities and community organisations through funds set up by donors and partners.

As our new Development and Marketing Officer, you’ll play a key role in expanding our reach and impact. You will help us to “inspire more and better philanthropy” by capturing the many stories of generosity we see in our day-to-day work and finding new ways to demonstrate what can be achieved through local giving. We are already the largest Community Foundation in the UK but, as the needs in our local communities continue to grow, we see huge potential for philanthropy to play a larger role in our region’s development. If you love to communicate and are motivated to boost access to opportunity, tackle poverty and strengthen communities in North East England, this new position could be for you.

Alongside an attractive salary and benefits package, we offer a great office environment, travel-to-work schemes and flexible/hybrid working opportunities.
