Do you have what it takes to inspire supporters to raise funds for Edinburgh Children's Hospital Charity (ECHC)?

Can you tell emotive stories; paint a picture of the truly life changing impact that ECHC has on each child who is supported by our work?

Are you open to a new challenge, not afraid to engage all manner of people, from those in business, members of community organisations and groups, schools, doctors and clinicians as well as children and families themselves?

Do you understand what it takes to convert interest into support; to go the extra mile; to grasp opportunities to learn; to meet stretching targets and to have fun while you‘re at it?

Then the Income Generation team at Edinburgh Children’s Hospital Charity might be the place for you.

You might have professional charity fundraising experience already. But you might not. You might be brilliant in the hospitality industry or work in sales or customer service. We’re looking for personality, energy and commitment and a genuine passion for our work. We can help you with the rest.

Please consider a career in the charity sector. It might just be the best decision you ever made.
