You'll be able to balance the big picture and the detail on order to build effective ways of working to support the objectives of the Advancement team.

The role of Dose of Nature’s Development Manager is a permanent, high-level role which will continue to evolve as the work of Dose of Nature grows over the coming years. The post involves creating and implementing a fundraising strategy, supporting the Chief Executive with financial planning, and providing clear long-term direction to income generation.
The Development Manager will work directly with the Chief Executive to devise a long-term development strategy, identify and secure funding partners, and produce relevant and compelling funding proposals. Currently the main sources of funding are from trust and foundation grants and local council health care grants. Going forward the Development Manager will grow the funding stream from trusts and foundations and look to solidify the donations from locals. As the charity develops there will also be opportunities of securing funding from the corporate sector, helping to secure Dose of Nature’s future.
The role requires a focused and detail-oriented mindset, entrepreneurial flair, business development experience, excellent written communication and interpersonal skills, good time management and the ability to juggle several complicated tasks at once. It provides a fantastic opportunity for someone with a “can-do” attitude, someone who is passionate about supporting the aims of Dose of Nature and also who wants the freedom to make this role their own.
As with any small charity we hope to find someone who is multi-faceted in terms of their fundraising skill set, and within this, without being a communications specialist, we anticipate that the Development Manager will have experience of charity communications (although this is not the main focus of the role). Ideally the Development Manager will be able to help with creating a communications strategy, support communication tools such as newsletters and social media, and identify any opportunities that may help Dose of Nature grow.
Dose of Nature has an annual turnover of approximately £400,000, of which 75% is currently raised from trust and foundation grants along with donations from individuals. The Development Manager will be responsible for maintaining this income and also securing significant new funding during 2024-25. With a good network of local support, the Development Manager will have the advantage of having a database of supporters to work with and there is the potential to create an individual appeal or giving scheme. Currently the Chief Executive makes all funding applications to trusts and foundations and these relationships will be passed on to the Development Manager who will be expected to nurture these and secure grants from new sources.

Marie Curie, the UK’s leading end-of-life charity, is seeking an Associate Director of Mass Fundraising to lead the charity’s Mass giving strategy - in particular Cash Appeals, Regular Giving, Gaming and Legacy – and to lead the Innovation team for all of Fundraising.
Marie Curie is the largest non-NHS provider of end-of-life care in the UK, the only provider across all four nations delivering community nursing and hospice care across the country, while providing information and support on all aspects of dying, death, and bereavement. Their leading research pushes the boundaries of what we know about good end-of-life, and their campaigns fight for a world where everyone gets to have the best possible quality of life while living with an illness they’re likely to die from.
The role of Associate Director of Mass Fundraising will be responsible for driving lifetime value and net contribution through ever-improving CPAs, strong awareness, engagement and retention strategies.
You will use your omni-channel marketing skills to oversee your team leading the charity’s cross-organisational Christmas and Great Daffodil Supporter-facing campaigns, ensuring the campaigns deliver income, cold recruitment and brand awareness, becoming moments the whole organisation engages in.
You will also ensure the innovation team focus on £1million plus income opportunities, whilst also providing teams with some support in them running their own optimisation projects. You will use your marketing skills to ensure the Innovation strategy is insight and data-led and that the organisation can run innovative projects quickly and agilely.
Marie Curie are seeking candidates who have senior-level leadership experience in a fundraising environment with a successful track record in mass fundraising and marketing. You should be able to demonstrate strong acquisition and retention results throughout your career and experience leading significant campaigns and in managing multi-million pound income and expenditure budgets. You will also have a proven track record in managing large, high-performing teams.
This is an ideal career opportunity for an individual with extensive community fundraising experience looking to either broaden their portfolio or take the next step towards a Director of Fundraising role.
