Circle is a registered charity working at the heart of communities across central Scotland. We work with families facing multiple disadvantages because of structural inequality, poverty, drug and alcohol use, imprisonment, physical or mental health, trauma, abuse and loss. We believe that every child, no matter their background or circumstances, should have the support they need to live a happy and healthy life.

Circle is seeking a skilled and relationship-driven Fundraising Officer with experience working with trusts and foundations and a talent for turning real stories into compelling funding applications. You’ll work closely with colleagues across our projects — spending time in services, gathering insight, and grounding every application in lived experience. Strong analytical skills, excellent written communication, and confidence using content management systems and digital tools are essential.

We’re looking for someone who is proactive, organised, and committed to equality and inclusion. You’ll be a creative storyteller, an effective collaborator, and someone who thrives on building relationships. If you’re passionate about making a difference for children and families — and you prefer to be out meeting people rather than writing in isolation — we’d love to hear from you.
