Are you well organised, great with people, and ready to put both behind a cause that changes lives?

If so this role could be for you!

About the service

Our Fundraising Team raises the voluntary income that allows Cyrenians to prevent homelessness and support people towards more stable futures. That income comes from individual donors, community groups, schools and businesses across Scotland, many who have stood with us for years.

The team is small, busy and collaborative, and works closely with colleagues in the marketing & communications team, and across our services. Every relationship we look after well helps to support the mission of Cyrenians, to tackle the causes and consequences of homelessness.

About the role

The Fundraising Coordinator is the first person many of our supporters meet. You will hold the day to day tasks of supporter care and help grow our community fundraising, so that everyone who gives to Cyrenians feels thanked, informed and glad they did.

• Be the first point of contact for supporters, making sure enquiries are answered warmly and every gift is processed, recorded and acknowledged promptly.
• Look after an existing portfolio of fundraisers and help deliver a calendar of events, sponsored challenges and community talks.
• Keep our supporter records accurate and compliant, including Gift Aid declarations and consent, and support the team with reporting.

About you

We are looking for someone personable and highly organised, who takes care over the detail and enjoys being the friendly voice of an organisation.

• Excellent customer service and communication skills, in writing, on the phone and face to face.
• Well organised, confident with IT and databases, and able to manage a varied workload to deadlines.
• Experience of working in a busy fundraising environment, with experience working with a supporter database an advantage.

How we’ll support you

You will join a supportive and motivated fundraising team, reporting to the Senior Fundraising Manager, with regular support and supervision and a clear work plan to shape your first year.

You’ll also have access to wider Cyrenians support, including our learning and development programme, and staff wellbeing services.

About Cyrenians

At Cyrenians we tackle the causes and consequences of homelessness by taking a values-led and relationships-based approach to delivering our services. You can find out more about our values and our impact online.

We’re looking for an energetic and creative Community Fundraising & Volunteering professional to help put Four Square at the heart of our local community. You’ll be the person making connections. From volunteers and local supporters to schools, businesses, community groups and corporate partners, you'll be inspiring people to get involved and support our work.

This is a varied, hands-on role where no two days will look quite the same. One day you could be developing a new corporate volunteering partnership, the next planning a fundraising event, creating engaging social media content, supporting our fantastic volunteers or sharing the stories that demonstrate the difference Four Square makes.

If you’re proactive, full of ideas, confident building relationships and excited by the opportunity to grow a community of people who want to make a difference, we’d love to hear from you.
