Respect is seeking a Fundraising Manager to develop and deliver a fundraising strategy in-line with Respect’s five-year strategy, Stopping the Harm. This is a new role, which will be positioned within the Influence team, with some administrative support from the Operations team.
We are delighted to have been able to create this post to help Respect to secure the funding it needs to deliver on our strategy. As all fundraisers will be aware, the current landscape for attracting core and unrestricted funding has been challenging.
Respect has been through a period of growth and we have, as part of that process, identified that we need to diversify our funding streams. Alongside traditional trusts and foundations, we want to speak to corporate organisations and others with an interest in ending domestic abuse through addressing its perpetration. You will therefore be playing a critical role, working with the support of the Executive Leadership Team and a wider Practice Development Team that are also working to secure funds to help us to deliver an exciting programme comprising our Centre for Excellence and Influence for Systemic Change, the two pillars of our strategy.
With a new government expected this summer, we are at a pivotal point in our influencing work. To this end, our new Fundraising Manager will work towards introducing innovative approaches to diversifying income streams through effective framing and storytelling to illustrate the importance of addressing domestic abuse at its root cause, the perpetrator.
I hope that you will be interested in joining us at an exciting time to help deliver on our mission to deliver our strategy and create a world where everyone is free from domestic abuse
