Our mission is to inform, educate, support, campaign, and advance on prostate disease in Scotland.

The Fundraising Officer plays a key relationship-focused and operational role in enabling and supporting income generation across Prostate Scotland. The postholder will contribute to the delivery of high-quality fundraising campaigns, events, and supporter engagement activity, initially with a focus on supporting individual and community supporters.

Working closely with colleagues across fundraising, communications and supporter care, the Fundraising Officer will provide essential relationship-management and operational support to ensure fundraising activity is well coordinated, effectively delivered and accurately reported.

This role is suited to an initiative taking, people-focused fundraiser who enjoys building relationships, supporting team delivery, and contributing to the growth of sustainable income streams.

About Us

Oliver Gill was diagnosed with a very rare and aggressive form of cancer at just a few days old, and despite smiling his way through intensive chemotherapy passed away at 24 weeks old. LoveOliver was started on his parents’ laptop with donations from friends and family.

Today, LoveOliver reaches every family in Scotland with a child diagnosed with cancer, providing practical, financial and emotional support along with the hope of gentler treatments and ultimately a cure, through investment in ground-breaking research. LoveOliver has its own children’s charity shop in Glenrothes and was recently gifted the incredible Hub drop-in centre near Edinburgh’s Royal Hospital for Children & Young People, as well as continuing to provide meals, thermometers and financial grants to every Scottish family impacted by childhood cancer.

As LoveOliver has grown so has our ambition, and we are expanding our small team to help us move forward at this exciting time for the organisation. Help us realise our vision of a country in which every family with a child diagnosed with cancer knows there is hope of a cure and that they will have support on their cancer journey.

The Role
