We’re looking for someone to help us grow our fundraising income!
–
We’re the charity that developed and runs National Prison Radio, the world’s first national radio station for people in prison.
We’re also on the cusp of launching a major Lottery-funded podcast channel, Life After Prison, and we’re leading the way in the global development of prison radio.
This year we picked up a Gold Award at the radio industry’s prestigious ARIAS. In recent years we’ve been crowned Independent Production Company of the Year (Audio Production Awards) and Charity of the Year (Third Sector Awards). We’ve also been nominated for a string of British Podcast Awards.
We’re looking for a Fundraising Manager to deliver on our trusts and grants fundraising priorities and secure income to support our work. This is a remote role with some occasional travel required.
You will work strategically with the senior management team to deliver the right funding for the right projects.
Reporting to the Director of Development, you will be responsible for investigating, researching and making approaches for new funding as well as maintaining and developing existing relationships to ensure future support.
Ours is an organisation unlike any other, and we’re particularly interested in hearing from candidates from under-represented backgrounds and from people who have lived experience of the criminal justice system.
Candidates will need experience of delivering £300,000+ p.a. in grant funding and will have excellent relationship management skills, both in-person and online, and with a portfolio of existing partners.
We’re a driven, tight-knit team working in what can be a challenging, exhilarating world, and you will be motivated by the knowledge that your work has the potential to make a real difference.
