At The Lullaby Trust our vision is clear: a world where no baby dies suddenly or unexpectedly, and every grieving family gets the support they need. We exist to keep babies safe and support bereaved families. 

We give families a safer start to life and create a supportive space for anyone whose baby or infant has died suddenly or unexpectedly. We empower families and health professionals with trusted advice on keeping babies safe, backed by research, and provide grieving families with bereavement support, side-by-side.

Since 1991 we have reduced the rate of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome by 82% and saved the lives of over 32,000 babies. But our work is not over, as three babies still die suddenly and unexpectedly a week. 

As the Supporter Engagement Officer, you’ll create opportunities for our amazing supporters to connect with and drive our work through various means of individual giving. You'll create engaging communucations, ensuring that our donors feel valued and understand the impact they're having on babies and their families, and you'll develop key appeals and individual giving activity to drive growth in these income streams.

You will:

1. Manage the development of individual giving income streams, including legacy giving, regular giving, one-off gifts, in memory giving and new products
2. Co-ordinate key engagement activity, such as the annual supporter Thankathon and Impact Report
3. Oversee administration and stewardship of individual giving income
4. Manage the promotion, sale and distribution of Lullaby Trust merchandise

This role can be offered as a hybrid role (with approximately one day per week in our London office) or fully remote, with occasional visits to the office for meetings or staff days as necessary; the two salary ranges above reflect this. The 21 hours could be worked across 3-5 days per week.

It is a key time to be joining The Lullaby Trust as we develop our new brand positioning, new website and creative direction, to help us reach more families and supporters than ever. We are a friendly, flexible employer and want to create a diverse and inclusive work environment for everyone.
