About the role
The purpose of the direct marketing executive role is to support the charity’s prize-led fundraising activity, which currently consists of two products – the Breast Cancer Now raffle and the Pink Ribbon lottery. Working closely with the direct marketing officers, you will assist in delivering a wide-range of campaigns across multiple channels (direct mail, email, telemarketing, digital and face-to-face marketing), which recruit and retain supporters to these products. And, you’ll provide vital administrative support to ensure the smooth running of the team and the lottery.
The workload is varied and an average day might consist of proof-reading campaign materials, processing invoices, recording campaign results, helping to brainstorm ideas for an upcoming campaign, briefing internal teams, calling a lottery winner, helping to resolve queries, shadowing our face-to-face fundraisers, or writing copy for an email campaign.
