We are now looking for a Senior Philanthropy Manager to join us on a permanent basis, working 28-35 hours per week.
The Benefits
- Salary of up to £44,000 per annum (pro rata for part-time)
- Annual leave starting at 25 days per year (pro rata for part-time), plus Bank Holidays (we also close between Christmas and New Year as extra time off)
- 6% employer contributions to our stakeholder pension scheme
- Sick pay at full-pay for 8 weeks, then 8 weeks at half-pay (after probation ends)
- Great work life balance through flexible and in many cases, remote working
- Support for your health and wellbeing with a programme of activities plus an employee assistance programme for you and the people who live with you
This is an incredible opportunity for a high calibre fundraising professional with experience securing six-figure gifts to make a real difference in the world.
