“Exceptional fundraising makes a real difference at Rowcroft. This role will lead a talented team to grow sustainable income, build valuable relationships and turn ambition into crucial support for patients and those closest to them.”

Make your work count! Could you be our next Philanthropy and Fundraising Manager?

If you want to feel personal fulfilment from a career with real meaning, consider Rowcroft Hospice. We offer purposeful work in a uniquely progressive environment.

What you’ll bring

To be successful in this role you will need a strong track record of growing fundraising income and significant experience of relationship fundraising. You’ll understand excellent donor care and stewardship and know how to develop valuable, long-term relationships with supporters, partners and prospects.

You’ll be a supportive and confident leader who enjoys developing people, setting clear priorities and creating an environment where colleagues can take ownership and do their best work. You’ll combine ambition with sound judgement, using insight to focus the team on the opportunities with greatest potential.

You’ll be comfortable moving between people, relationships and numbers, whether meeting a prospective donor, supporting a member of your team, reviewing an income forecast, developing a new fundraising proposition or representing Rowcroft at an event.

You will be driven by our cause and will enjoy working in a fast-paced environment as part of a close team. To deliver on our strategy takes real teamwork, energy and passion, and no two days are ever the same.

What’s in it for you?

You will be supported and encouraged to innovate and to try new things. Our scope of work and our confident organisational vision create opportunities for progress and development. And we work together with passion and pride in an environment where people are caring, considerate, inclusive and welcoming. It can be tough. We don’t shy away from that. But you’ll clearly see the importance and impact of your work and feel recognised and part of something remarkable.

As a manager you will be expected and supported to take part in the Leadership and Management training programme offered by Rowcroft.
