At HorseWorld Trust our vision is a world where horses and people help each other to live and work in harmony.. In turn, our mission is to create a safe community where horses and people connect together and enjoy lifelong learning.
HorseWorld Trust was established in 1952, and is based in Whitchurch, near Bristol. Our highly trained Welfare department is committed to rescuing, rehabilitating and re-homing horses, ponies and donkeys in need and our ground-breaking educational programme, called Discovery, supports emotional growth and learning in young people through hands-on experience with rescued equines.
Our Philanthropy Coordinator will proactively track and manage a pipeline of next and existing High Net Worth Individuals and support HorseWorld's Major Donor Working Group comprising the Chair of Trustees, CEO and Heads of Departments. You will be expected to provide insight and identify opportunities for connection plus manage and track the stewardship tools to guide donors through their giving journey, including cultivation plans, sourcing and presenting tailored information for donors. Facilitating and attending meetings and events, both in person and online, you will be ensuring steps are being taken to nurture donor relationships.
Collaboration is key as you will work with colleagues and volunteers across the organisation to support HorseWorld's fundraising efforts.
You will also initiative the relationship management of a new portfolio of mid value donors and prospects; ensuring the donors you work with are engaged with our cause, and that you are responding to their individual stewardship needs as you keep them updated with our work.
This job is for you if :

- You have the ability to collaborate effectively with a range of people using appropriate working styles to achieve team and organisational goals

Stroke Association
Finding strength through support
When stroke strikes, part of your brain shuts down. And so does a part of you. That’s because a stroke happens in the brain, the control centre for who we are and what we can do. It happens every five minutes in the UK and changes lives instantly. Recovery is tough, but with the right specialist support and a ton of courage and determination, the brain can adapt.

We are Britain’s first rewilding charity on a mission to see 30% of our land and seas rewilding by 2030. Rewilding has recently moved from being a niche idea to playing a significant role in the fight against some of the biggest global challenges we face. Rewilding Britain has been at the forefront of this change since its formation in 2015, acting as a catalyst for debate and action, and demonstrating the power of working with nature to build a green economy where people and nature thrive.
We influence policy, inspire public action and catalyse joined-up practical and financial support to help establish rewilding across Britain’s land and seas. Through our rapidly growing Rewilding Network we’re bringing together a community of rewilders - from land managers and farmers, to charities, community groups and national parks - to inspire and support each other to create a wilder, more prosperous Britain. It’s not too late - but we must act now.
We have a Vision and Strategy to 2030 and are in the process of evaluating the impact of our current strategic plan and defining our strategic objectives for 2025-2030.

Lead the development of an initial impact and evaluation framework that will help us to track our progress, demonstrate achievements and ensure accountability.
Your responsibilities will include:
-
Consult and work closely with staff and relevant external stakeholders to review current impact performance tracking across all organisation objectives and identify gaps in or improvements required.

-
Design a dashboard and reporting mechanisms for presenting the data in a way that is easy to use and understand.
-
Contribute towards the continuous improvement of processes, data and our technology to enable the charity to collect and analyse impact and monitoring data on an ongoing basis.
