Our staff body is currently under-representative of People of Colour, LGBTQIA+ people and people with long term conditions or impairments. We are committed to eroding these historic barriers, so as to create a movement in which people from all walks of life see themselves in, and so we particularly encourage you to apply if you belong to one of these groups or sit at multiple intersections of disadvantage. We are committed to the Disability Confident standard and will guarantee an interview to any candidates who declare a disability and who meet the essential criteria for the role.

Friends of the Earth staff who publicly represent Friends of the Earth (including all campaigners) are not allowed to also represent a political party. This is to ensure that there can be no confusion in the minds of the public about Friends of the Earth's party-political independence. Affected staff should also seek permission from the Senior Management Team if they wish to hold a non-public facing official role in a political party. If this is an issue, please do raise this with us as soon as possible.

The Fundraising Manager will play a pivotal role in advancing the bpf’s work and mission. This exciting opportunity would suit a fundraising professional with effective leadership, strategic thinking and analytical skills. Proven experience within the non-profit sector, with a broad range of fundraising skills and expertise, is essential. This role will suit someone who can roll their sleeves up and get the job done, as well as someone looking to take on a more strategic and project management role.

The successful candidate will demonstrate the ability to build strong and productive relationships with a diverse range of stakeholders, both internally and externally. There is significant scope and opportunity for the Fundraising Manager to shape bpf’s work around trusts and foundations, individual giving, challenge/community events, and corporate partnerships (all in their relative infancy at the charity and needing someone with experience and vision to broaden our reach and grow our current income).

The successful candidate will also have a track record of achieving income targets and managing successful, multi-stream fundraising campaigns. During the interview process, we would like to hear examples of the software, channels, and customer/donor relationship management tools (CRMs) you have used to build and manage fundraising campaigns.

Working alongside the Director of Academic and Strategic Development, the successful candidate will need to be a good team player, flexible, hardworking and prepared to play an enthusiastic role in helping the organisation increase its fundraising income.
