Alzheimer Scotland is Scotland’s national dementia charity. Our aim is to make sure nobody faces dementia alone. We
provide support and information to people with dementia, their carers and families, we campaign for the rights
of people with dementia and fund vital dementia research.
Join our growing Fundraising & Engagement Team
With a number of exciting opportunities emerging across our fundraising programmes, we’re looking for motivated,
creative individuals to help us make a real difference across Scotland. With multiple exciting roles available,
from corporate partnerships to supporter care and community engagement, you’ll have the chance to use your
skills to directly support people living with dementia, their families and carers, ensuring that nobody faces
dementia alone.
What you’ll do
As a Fundraising & Engagement Administrator at Alzheimer Scotland, you’ll be tasked with delivering an
outstanding supporter experience across a diverse community of donors, fundraisers, volunteers and stakeholders.
You’ll be a key member of our Fundraising & Engagement team, where we raise vital funds to make sure nobody
faces dementia alone.
You will play a central role in the supporter journey for, among others, our third-party event participants and
community fundraisers, ensuring they get the information and advice to enable them to have a fruitful and
enjoyable experience with Alzheimer Scotland. You will often be their first point of contact, so you’ll need to
be passionate about providing first-class care to our supporters in an empathetic, efficient and enthusiastic
way.
You will also be responsible for data entry and management so organisational skills and attention to detail are
paramount. If you are someone who understands and uses processes with confidence and operates well in a
fast-paced environment, then this is the role for you.
This role will be based in our Edinburgh office, with a minimum of four days per week in the office to ensure we give
our supporters the best service. There will be occasional travel to a range of other locations, as required by
the organisation.
What you’ll have
The successful candidate will be naturally optimistic and empathetic, with a can-do attitude. You will be a
self-starter who thrives on building meaningful relationships. We are looking for someone who has a positive
attitude towards dementia, along with excellent communication skills and a caring manner.
This role would suite someone with experience in customer service or support roles in any sector. While charity or
fundraising experience is helpful, it’s not essential – we value empathy, strong communication skills and a
genuine desire to help others. We would encourage applications from anyone who feels their skills and experience
would translate into this role.
