We're the UK's specialist blood cancer charity and our vision is clear: we’re here to beat blood cancer. We fund world-class research; provide information and support to patients and their loved ones; and raise awareness of blood cancer.

Since 1960 we have invested more than £500 million in blood cancer research in the UK. Where we’ve invested, survival rates and quality of life have improved. We’ve been working to beat blood cancer for over 50 years, and we won’t stop until we do. Be a part of our story and help us change the world.

Working alongside dedicated colleagues, this is the perfect role for someone looking to put their experience of working with regional supporters and in providing first-class supporter stewardship to use in helping us develop our team, as well as further developing their leadership skills. You will be an integral part of our Regional Relationships Team and a member of our wider Public Fundraising team, as we seek to deliver transformational growth in our income. You will enjoy the active support and buy-in of senior colleagues, the Executive Team and other senior volunteers who are all committed to achieving our fundraising goals. We are seeking an experienced fundraiser who enjoys building relationships internally and externally, and who is driven to help us build our regional fundraising programme.

Our culture and benefits package are award winning, and our staff survey tells us that we’re a great place to work.

We are committed to actively promoting equality, diversity, and inclusivity. In line with our strategy we welcome approaches from individuals from underrepresented groups, including minority communities, and applicants with a disability, to better reflect the community we serve and help broaden our perspectives.
