Variety, the Children's Charity, seeks an experienced fundraising leader, people-person, and all-around star to be our next Director of Fundraising & Communications – could it be you? Based in our head office in London, you will work with our CEO and Regional Director of Development (North West) on significantly growing our income. Backed by a fantastic brand and reputation, you will lead through a transformative period of growth as we raise funds to make a real and immediate difference in the lives of disabled and disadvantaged children and young people.

At Variety, the Children's Charity, we believe every child has a right to live their best life and reach their full potential. We fund and deliver life-changing programs that give disabled and disadvantaged children and young people across the UK a better future. 2024 is our 75th year in the UK, and we are part of a global network that has raised and donated close to £1.6 billion to positively impact the lives of children in need.

We are one of the most well-recognised and trusted charities as a result of this illustrious track record. Today, in the UK we have a team of 20 dedicated staff, which will grow over the next 12 months, who support our work and an enviable network of committed supporters and volunteers across the country.

We’re not content to rest on our laurels – we have recently completed a leadership transition that will provide the strategic and operational foundation for the charity to be more effective than ever. We plan to double our income in the next three years and grow our support for children and young people across the UK.

To do this, we need a dynamic, forward-thinking fundraiser who can engage effectively with staff, Trustees, volunteers, donors, and beneficiaries. Someone who knows how to make the most of the unparalleled showbiz and business networks our trustees bring to the organisation. Who can demonstrate a deep understanding of fundraising, a commitment to achieving ambitious financial targets, the ability to lead by being fully accessible to various stakeholders and can actively participate in key Variety events, including the Variety Club Showbusiness Awards, Variety Props Awards and the Variety Disability Sports Awards. Success in the role will make a huge difference to the lives of the children and young people we support as well as putting our new Director on the map.
