Fundraising Officer

Working closely with the Head of New Business and furthering our fundraising strategy, you will identify, establish and nurture relationships with targeted potential new funders.

You'll develop persuasive proposals to excite donors to our work as well as manage the pipeline to create a diverse portfolio base, allowing us to deliver ambitious fundraising targets and ultimately our successful campaigns.

You'll expand on both existing networks and advance new donors, providing a robust picture of the opportunities for new and diversified funding.

You'll bring your experience in building funder relationships, from Trusts and Foundations sectors.

As a skilled communicator, you have a proven ability to write and edit compelling interactions, funding proposals and news updates for a variety of audiences.

Finally, you'll have a strong affinity to Global Witness' values. You'll thrive in an environment where you frequently collaborate well to achieve our ambitions.
