This means the role goes beyond traditional community fundraising, giving you the opportunity to contribute to the development of high-quality supporter journeys and to develop meaningful ways to thank and recognise supporters across an array of fundraising products. Help create impactful donor communications and updates. Strengthen long-term relationships with supporters and partners. This combination of community fundraising and stewardship development offers a rare opportunity for someone who enjoys relationship-building and wants to broaden their experience in supporter engagement and fundraising strategy
