Angus Citizens Advice Bureau is an independent and innovative advice organisation providing holistic advice and support to local people. Over the last year we’ve worked with approximately 3500 clients on a variety of different advice topics. We are a friendly and welcoming team made up of around 16 paid staff and around 35 volunteers that offer generalist advice to clients alongside more specific projects. Angus CAB was formed in 1985 and we are keen to ensure we remain here in Angus providing people with high quality advice for many, many years to come.

That’s where this role comes in! We are looking for a highly motivated Fundraising Officer to join our team to focus on funding applications to ensure our resourcing meets the demands that are placed upon us. This is a sole fundraising role, so the successful applicant should be comfortable working alone, although they will have the ongoing support of the Chief Officer and any other relevant members of the team to provide information and context to support applications and bid-writing. In return for your expertise we are happy to be flexible around the days worked and where you base yourself, and you will join a team of very hard working people who are all passionate about achieving great outcomes for our Angus clients.

For more information on the role please contact Laura Stewart (Chief Officer) on 01241 439235 or by email – arb-chiefofficer@anguscab.org.uk
