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.
