The role will include researching relevant opportunities, identifying the most appropriate projects, writing and submitting applications and ensuring excellent donor management, development and reporting. Trusts and Foundations income is a cornerstone of Bowel Research UKs charitable income each year and is responsible for around a third of fundraised income. The organisation has assessed the trusts' function recently, the outcome of which shows that there is scope to significantly grow this area of activity. Full support will be given to the Trust Fundraising Manager to enable this growth to happen.
You will be a motivated self-starter able to write, budget and communicate effectively. You will develop relationships with ease and feel able to positively influence colleagues at all levels of an organisation. The position requires someone with a positive attitude who is determined and resilient.
If you are someone who is or has operated at a senior trust fundraiser level, or someone who can demonstrate experience of developing a trust and grants pipeline, creating compelling applications and directly delivering income success, then this role might be for you.

You’re passionate about engaging communities and connecting people with meaningful volunteering opportunities and enjoy using creativity, marketing, and social media to inspire action.
As Local Volunteering Attraction Coordinator, you'll play a key role in promoting volunteering and driving new volunteer applications to support and grow our services. Working flexibly and independently, you'll engage with local communities, build relationships with organisations, and use a range of marketing and outreach activities to encourage people to get involved. You'll need to be adaptable, self-motivated, and comfortable working both independently and as part of a wider team, using technology to stay connected.
You'll develop and implement strategic recruitment plans, using a mix of social media, local media, community events, and partnerships to identify potential volunteers. Representing Guide Dogs at events and fairs, you'll raise awareness of our work and inspire people to take the next step in their volunteering journey. Planning and hosting events will be a key part of the role, ensuring that engagement is maximised, and recruitment targets are met.
Collaboration will be essential as you’ll be working closely with Communications colleagues to ensure best value from advertising partnerships and presence on Guide Dogs’ digital channels. You'll also work with internal teams to align recruitment efforts with local and national volunteer targets, supporting regional campaigns and monitoring performance to continuously improve recruitment effectiveness.
To be successful in this role, you'll need experience in volunteer recruitment, community outreach, marketing, or related fields, with a strong ability to engage and inspire others. You'll be confident in delivering marketing campaigns, creating engaging advertising materials, and using data to track and improve recruitment strategies. A degree or formal qualifications in marketing or volunteering would be beneficial, but not essential.
This is a part-time home-based role, working 32 hours per week, with regular travel across Wales. You’ll need to demonstrate a proactive, flexible approach and willingness to work occasional evenings and weekends to attend key events. The closest office is Cardiff. In this role, you can make a tangible impact in growing an engaged and passionate volunteer community.
No two people with sight loss are the same, and none of our people are either. So, we are proud to offer a range of person-centred benefits that can support each member of staff in ways that really mean something to them – and show them how much they mean to us. We offer a flexible benefits package, discounts and cashback scheme, a generous holiday allowance and matched contributory pension scheme to care for our people.
Interviews for this role are planned to take place W/C 21 April.
For high volumes of applications, we reserve the right to close adverts earlier than advertised.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
