Role: Senior Poppy Appeal Manager

Location: Homebased, flexible across England

Contract Type: Permanent

Hours: 35 hours per week, Monday-Friday

Each November, something special happens. The nation comes together to remember, reflect, and support and right at the heart of that is the Poppy Appeal. As the UK’s largest fundraising campaign, it means a great deal to millions. As our Senior Poppy Appeal Manager, you’ll be leading this incredible effort across half the country, with responsibility for a major regional area that’s likely to include London and either the South or Eastern side of England.

Come and be part of this national moment – The Poppy Appeal, making a difference to the lives of those who have served to keep us safe and protect our way of life.

This is a key leadership role with national reach. You’ll oversee a multi-million-pound income target, lead a team of around 30 staff, and support thousands of passionate volunteers across towns, cities and rural communities. Reporting into the Head of Poppy Appeal, you’ll play a central part in delivering our new strategy and ensuring the campaign continues to grow and evolve for the future.

You’ll need to be a confident, inclusive and hands on leader, someone who can build strong relationships, manage busy projects, and bring people with them. You’ll have experience of leading large, dispersed teams and volunteers, working under pressure, and delivering strong fundraising results at scale. Ideally, you’ll also hold a relevant qualification in fundraising.

The role involves regular travel, including to our head office in London and to meetings and events across your region. You'll need to be flexible, well-organised and comfortable managing your time across a wide geographical area.

Above all, we’re looking for someone with energy, resilience and purpose. Someone who’s excited by the chance to take on a high-profile, meaningful challenge and who’s ready to help lead the next chapter of one of the UK’s most iconic fundraising appeals. Your November will never be the same again and neither will your career. This is your chance to be part of a new chapter in the Poppy Appeal’s story.

At the Royal British Legion, we know the importance of flexibility, so we offer options like our 9-day fortnight while also considering other flexible working arrangements to suit your needs. We want you to feel supported in balancing work with life’s other joys!

You will be contracted to your home address, where you will be expected to work, when not travelling. Please be aware a full UK driving licence is required for this role.

Employee benefits include -

• 28 day’s paid holiday (plus bank holidays) increasing with service, with optional annual leave purchase scheme of up to 5 working days
• Generous pension contributions, with Employer contributions ranging from 6% to 14%
• Range of flexible working options may be available, depending on your role
• Employee Assistance Programme providing confidential counselling, financial and legal advice
• Range of courses delivered by learning specialists to support your development goals and objectives
• Opportunities to volunteer
• Travel loans, Cycle to Work, and more!
