Jobs in Midlothian East, Midlothian

Would you like to bring your impressive relationship building skills to an award winning and much loved Scottish charity? Simba is here to support anyone affected by baby loss, now and always. We help bereaved families create precious memories with their baby and offer tangible ways to honour and remember them.

We are looking for a Community Fundraising Officer to support the planning, delivery, and growth of the charity’s community and events fundraising activity; including parent-led fundraising events and community activities.

This hands-on role involves working closely with parents, families, and community supporters who raise funds in memory of their babies, providing exceptional care and guidance to ensure they feel supported and valued.

You will help coordinate a wide range of events and campaigns; from local community activities and challenge events to virtual and digital fundraisers, while supporting the Communications Lead to promote these opportunities across multiple channels. This position is ideal for someone with a warm, compassionate approach who enjoys building relationships, supporting others, and helping make a meaningful difference.

This is a really varied role, with some evening and weekend work, as and when required.

You will have excellent interpersonal and communication skills, demonstrating sensitivity and empathy in dealing with bereavement and baby loss. Simba has a set of values, outlined within our Strategy (which is available on our website). We are committed to selecting people based on their ability to do the role for which they are being recruited. We would especially welcome applications from underrepresented groups within the baby loss community.
