About the Role

You will bring a campaign concept to life and you’ll grow in your fundraising knowledge and expertise. As a Campaigns Coordinator, you’ll be responsible for managing key seasonal campaigns, including but not limited to our Christmas Appeal.

These campaigns are key in attracting and acquiring givers, helping our organisation grow!

About You?

You love analysing what makes people ‘tick’. You may have experience driving campaigns, project management or want to gain a deeper knowledge of fundraising, lead generation, and acquisition marketing. You’re naturally excited about data driven trends and find satisfaction in achieving results. No job is too small for you, as you own each aspect of the campaign.
