This is a key role within the Foundation and is a great opportunity for someone wanting to build experience across all areas of fundraising, as well as grant-making.

About Us 

The Peak District is the UK’s oldest National Park and has a special place in so many people’s hearts. But the Park is in crisis. We need to restore threatened habitats, create bigger and better homes for wildlife, protect our cultural heritage and inspire the next generation of nature champions to protect the park in the future. The reality of climate change means that repairing our natural landscapes is more important and urgent than ever.

The Peak District Foundation is an independent charity which works to create a Peak District which is thriving for nature and people and is protected for future generations. We are building a community of supporters who are working with us to protect and improve the Peak District for everyone, forever.

You will oversee the administration of our Peak Partners scheme for businesses and lead on signing up new bronze and silver level partners. You will also lead on community fundraising - supporting individuals and groups who want to fundraise for the Foundation. The role will also include helping to distribute much-needed grants to projects across the National Park.

This role would be ideally suited to someone with a digital communications background who wants to develop skills in fundraising, or an individual with some fundraising or sales experience who is looking to move into the environmental sector.
