Trusts Fundraiser

We have an exciting opportunity for a motivated Trusts Fundraiser to contribute significantly to the development of income generation at Raystede. You will expand our existing programme of Trusts support by creating persuasive applications and undertaking effective research, with the aim of securing funding for a variety of core costs and capital projects. This is an exciting role as you will help our Funders to engage deeply with our work, and the lives of the animals in our care, as you present tailored cases for support and gratifying evaluations. An excellent storyteller with a keen eye for detail, you will be able to interpret financial data and funding criteria, as well as strategically plan for existing and future funding needs. You may have experience of Trusts in another fundraising role, or perhaps you're also an animal-loving fundraiser, or someone who researches, complies and writes reports professionally. You will also be responsible for setting up a stewardship plan for Trust Supporters and building and maintaining relationships over the phone, through written communications, and on-site or at events. You will be supported in delivering excellent stewardship. Reporting to the Head of Fundraising, you will have autonomy to plan your time and manage and grow the Trusts & Foundations pipeline.
