£35,978 per annum, plus pension
Edinburgh-based

Do you have experience of managing a small but fast-paced and relationships-focused fundraising team? Do you have knowledge of a range of fundraising streams? Do you feel confident in developing a relatively new team to deliver income?

If so, this role is for you.

About Cyrenians

At Cyrenians we tackle the causes and consequences of homelessness. We take a values-led and relationships-based approach to delivering our services because we understand that there is no ‘one size fits all’ approach to supporting people towards more positive and stable futures.

About the Fundraising Team

Relationships are at the heart of everything we do at Cyrenians, with those we support and those who support us too.

It’s an exciting time for fundraising at Cyrenians. Our team has only been around for a few years and in that time, income generation has grown rapidly. After a period of change, we’re now looking to maximise the potential of the relationships we’ve built and to enhance the structure of our ways of working.

With a fundraising mix currently dominated by corporate partnerships, individual giving and major donors, we are looking to build on our previous growth while also dipping our toes into events and community fundraising.

About the role

This role will work closely with our Director of Income Generation, Marketing & Communications, taking our fundraising strategy and turning it into operational plans, developing the team to deliver in a way that is collaborative, innovative and measurable. Close relationships with our Marketing & Communications and services teams are integral to delivery.

The role has a strong focus on people management, sharing your fundraising expertise with the team to develop the teams knowledge and maximise income generation.

About you

You’ll be a knowledgeable fundraiser, who lives our values and takes great care to build relationships with and in your team, across the organisation and with our treasured supporters. You may have already built or led a fundraising team, with an emphasis on fostering a positive and collaborative culture.

A champion for data-led activity, you’ll take a plan, do, review approach to your fundraising, ensuring learnings are shared and embedded as we move forward.

How we’ll support you

• Working closely with colleagues in Marketing & Communications, Trusts & Grants and our services, you’ll be surrounded by those who share your passion to tackle homelessness and its root causes. We’ll encourage you to grow your management experience, with creativity, strong values and innovation, and to take a planned and pragmatic approach to your calendar of activity and implementing new initiatives.
• You will be supported to attend training and networking events to deepen your knowledge of the issues surrounding homelessness and social exclusion; engage with a variety of stakeholders and extend your professional network.
• You’ll also have access to wider Cyrenians support, including our learning and development programme, and staff wellbeing services.
