Organisation: Shooting Star Children's Hospice

Position: Community Fundraiser (x2)

Reporting to: Community Fundraising Manager
Salary: Circa 30k depending on experience

Location: Hybrid - 3 days a week in Hampton

Required: CV

Closing date: 12th December 2024 (please apply at your earliest convenience)

Shooting Star Children's Hospices is a leading children's hospice charity caring for babies, children and young people with life-limiting conditions, and their families. They support families across Surrey and London from diagnosis to end of life and throughout bereavement with a range of nursing, practical, emotional and medical care.

As a key member of the Community Fundraising team, you will work closely with the Community Fundraising Manager on new and existing fundraising activities, helping to maintain and develop existing relationships and work proactively to identify new contacts and opportunities for development. This is an exciting role, in a growing team within a charity that makes a huge impact across these communities.

The post will be based at the hospice in Hampton, but you may need to travel extensively throughout Shooting Star Children's Hospices catchment area and therefore it is essential you are a car owner and driver. You may also be required to attend events and meetings throughout the catchment area during weekends, early mornings or evenings and you should be prepared for this.

It's a great time to join Shooting Star Children's Hospices as they have exciting plans for expansion and further enhancing services to support even more families in need. If you're passionate about making a difference and want to be part of a team dedicated to raising vital funds and awareness in the community, we'd love to hear from you.
