EMMS International is Scotland’s longest-serving international healthcare charity, working with partners across India, Malawi, Nepal, Rwanda, Scotland and Zambia to improve access to healthcare and strengthen health systems.

Following a recent organisational review and restructure, and the appointment of a new Director of Fundraising, EMMS is entering an ambitious period of income growth. The charity currently generates around £400,000 per year through grants, individual giving, campaigns and appeals, with significant potential to grow this further.

Abeer Macintyre Consultancy is now recruiting a Fundraising Manager to join EMMS and help grow its individual giving and community fundraising activity.

Working closely with the Director of Fundraising and Head of Partnerships and Philanthropy, you will:

• grow individual giving, appeals and regular giving
• develop community and challenge-event fundraising
• build strong relationships with supporters, groups and fundraisers
• deliver excellent supporter stewardship
• manage and analyse supporter data through Raiser’s Edge NXT
• identify new opportunities to increase engagement and income
• support campaigns, events and wider fundraising activity.

You will have at least two years’ charity fundraising experience, with a strong track record of coordinating fundraising activity and generating income. You will also bring strong relationship-building, communication, organisational and analytical skills.

EMMS offers flexible and home working, 25–30 days’ annual leave, an 8% employer pension contribution, life assurance and other benefits. Compressed hours or a four-day working week may also be considered.

The successful candidate must live in Scotland and attend EMMS’s Edinburgh office for a minimum of one day per week.

Help us turn 110 years of heritage into opportunities for the future.

The Scottish Women's Institutes has been bringing women together to learn, share skills, build friendships and strengthen communities since 1917.

As we enter an exciting new chapter, we're looking for a Head of Business Development to help us grow our income, partnerships, reach and impact. This is a newly created role and a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys spotting opportunities and turning good ideas into sustainable activity.

Working directly with our Chief Executive and alongside our small national team, you'll lead the development of new income through fundraising, grants, sponsorship, corporate partnerships, philanthropic giving and commercial opportunities.

You'll build relationships with funders, businesses and organisations across Scotland; develop compelling funding and partnership proposals; create new sponsorship opportunities; and explore new ways in which SWI's brand, programmes, skills, heritage and national network can generate income and impact.

We're looking for someone who can:

• identify and develop new income opportunities;
• build a strong pipeline of funders, sponsors and partners;
• write compelling funding applications and partnership proposals;
• develop trusted relationships with businesses, funders and stakeholders;
• think commercially while understanding the values and purpose of a charity;
• spot opportunities for new products, partnerships and collaborations; and
• take an idea from an initial conversation through to a successful, deliverable project.

You don't necessarily need to have done all of these things in one job. You might currently work in fundraising, partnerships, business development, sponsorship, income generation or another role where building relationships and creating opportunities is central to what you do.

What matters is that you are proactive, commercially aware, a strong relationship-builder and excited by the opportunity to help shape the future of one of Scotland's most established membership organisations.

You'll be joining SWI at a particularly exciting time as we implement our new strategy and build on the opportunities created by our 110th anniversary.

Age Scotland is the national charity for older people.

Our vision is that no one in Scotland faces the challenges of older age alone.

We provide older people, their families and carers with high-quality information and advice services and we tackle loneliness through our dedicated friendship programmes.

We campaign and influence on the issues older people tell us they care about. We support and fund hundreds of older people’s groups and community initiatives across the country and deliver workshops to improve people’s quality of life.

We involve and empower people affected by dementia and host national forums for older people from ethnic minorities and the LGBTQ+ community to help address the inequalities they face.

We're looking for an enthusiastic and ambitious Corporate Fundraiser – New Business to join our Fundraising team.

This is an exciting opportunity to secure new partnerships with businesses across Scotland and the UK, helping to generate vital income and support for older people. You'll identify and develop new opportunities, create compelling partnership proposals, and build lasting relationships with corporate supporters. From Charity of the Year partnerships and project funding to sponsorship and commercial collaborations, you'll play a key role in delivering our ambitious plans for income growth.

Working closely with colleagues across the organisation, you'll bring our values of empowering, inspiring, inclusive and integrity to life, securing meaningful partnerships that create shared value and lasting impact. Your work will help grow sustainable income, raise Age Scotland's profile, and ensure more older people across Scotland can live well and age well.

If you're a proactive relationship-builder with a proven track record of securing new business and turning opportunities into successful long-term partnerships, we'd love to hear from you.

The post will be Scotland-based, with a blend of office (Edinburgh-based) and home working. As a hybrid role the intention is that office-based and external facing work will constitute 40% of working time over each month. Age Scotland is a flexible employer, and flexible work patterns are available.

In return for your hard work, enthusiasm and commitment to our values you’ll receive a generous benefits package:

• Generous holiday allowance of 39 days (FTE)

• A range of learning and development opportunities
