You will also be working closely with our animal care teams on animal welfare related projects as well as our estate teams, trustees and senior management team.

We are growing our income generation to meet the challenges on behalf of the animals in our care who do not have a voice of heir own. The role of Major Donor Fundraiser is crucial to ensuring our supporters are engaged deeply with our cause, through strong stewardship and cultivation activity.

The Major Giving programme is well underway, and you will be supported to deliver excellent stewardship and design a personal stewardship programme. Reporting to the Head of Fundraising, you will have autonomy, be encouraged to take an innovative approach to stewardship and be supported to continue your professional development.

We would love to hear from you if you:

• Are an experienced fundraiser or account manager with excellent relationship development skills.
• Can inspire and influence supporters to deepen relationships.
• Can work with discretion, tact and sensitivity.
• Have excellent networking skills, able to network at the highest level and work closely with our CEO, Trustees and Senior Management Team.
• Have good IT skills, including CRM databases and MS Office applications.
• Want to make a real, tangible impact to the lives of animals.
• Have the passion and drive to go the extra mile, keeping excellent donor care and animal welfare at the heart of everything you do.

About Raystede

Raystede is a charity that aims to give animals a better life through rehoming, rehabilitation and sanctuary, and give people the support and knowledge they need to treat animals with care and respect. Raystede is Sussex’s biggest animal welfare charity, with nearly 70 years’ experience of caring for and rehoming animals. Uniquely, we care for a huge range of animals - from dogs, cats and donkeys to rabbits, parrots and alpacas. Our experience, expertise and partnerships enable us to deliver an exceptional quality of care for the animals we help. Many of the animals have been neglected, abused or exploited. Raystede helps most of the animals find new homes but also provides life-long sanctuary for elderly horses and other animals that cannot be rehomed. Raystede provides love and safety to those animals that would have nowhere else to go.
