Job description

Part-Time Door-to-Door Fundraiser

Every dog deserves a loving home. Help make that happen, three or four days a week.

At Charity Link, we deliver sales & fundraising campaigns for some of the UK's most respected charities. In this role, you will be working exclusively with Dogs Trust, representing the charity directly to the public as a permanent member of our sales team.

Role Overview

This is door-to-door fundraising. You will visit households in your assigned area, meet people face-to-face, share the stories behind the cause & inspire them to give regular monthly support. Your goal will be to meet & exceed weekly sales targets.

Every day, you will meet new people & engage with them regarding the Dogs Trust vision, giving them reasons to care & support the cause. Dogs Trust cares for thousands of dogs, promotes responsible dog ownership & campaigns globally to improve dog welfare. When you explain that to a resident & they decide to be part of it, that's the moment this job is all about.

Although this is a sales role, you are selling the work of a fantastic, UK Charity & so a caring & considered approach is best. However, we are still target-driven, so you will need resilience, confidence & great communication skills. You will work independently but you will have sales coaching & support behind you every step of the way.

Working three or four days a week gives you the time to recharge, & it still lets you do work that matters.

Key Responsibilities

• Visit homes in your assigned area & start warm, genuine conversations with residents
• Share the stories & the impact behind Dogs Trust campaigns, & show people why regular giving matters
• Inspire residents to become long-term monthly donors
• Record donor details accurately using a tablet
• Travel independently to different postcodes within your area
• Work towards pro-rata weekly sales targets
• Represent Dogs Trust in a professional, ethical & positive way

What You Will Bring

• A positive, resilient & self-motivated attitude
• A genuine love of dogs & passion for the cause
• Door-to-door sales experience is desirable but not essential, as full training is provided

Salary & Benefits

• Guaranteed basic salary
• Uncapped bonuses, so your hard work is always rewarded
• Full training
• Ongoing coaching & support
• Opportunities for career progression
• Regular incentives
• Generous referral scheme

Training & Development

Fundraisers complete a structured 12-week training programme, beginning with a remote induction followed by continuous coaching from experienced sales managers & fundraising coaches. Full support is provided to help you succeed & build a long-term career in fundraising.

Working Hours

Part-time roles require three to four days per week. Typical hours are from 11 am to 7 pm but can be flexible.

Travel & Equipment

Door-to-door fundraisers typically work near their homes, though travel across local & regional areas is required. Mileage is reimbursed for travel beyond 20 miles. All equipment, including uniform, tablet, & fundraising materials, is supplied.

Why Charity Link?
