This is a unique opportunity to play a key role in CHAS’s More Than a Hospice Appeal - an ambitious, once-in-a-generation campaign to change the future of care for children who will die young.

We are looking for a driven and ambitious individual to develop new fundraising opportunities and supporter relationships, growing income from communities across the East of Scotland and helping to deliver the Appeal’s ambitious goals.

Purpose

You will identify and build relationships with individuals, schools, local groups and small businesses across the East of Scotland, helping people connect with CHAS and feel confident fundraising for the More Than a Hospice Appeal.

You will spot new opportunities, develop partnerships, and create engaging fundraising products and resources that make it easy for communities to get involved and generate income. You will also support community-based events and initiatives that increase both income and awareness, helping supporters understand that the Appeal is about more than buildings: it is about choice, dignity and care for families, wherever they are - at home, in hospital or in a hospice.

You will also inspire people to get involved by recruiting, training and developing volunteers. Working alongside the Community Fundraising team, you will help build sustainable, community-led fundraising with long-term impact.

Where does the role sit?

Reporting to the Community Fundraising Manager, you will be part of the Community Fundraising team and play an important role in growing support across the East of Scotland and delivering the ambition of the More Than a Hospice Appeal.

About you

To successfully drive fundraising and support for CHAS, you will work cooperatively with colleagues, build meaningful relationships, demonstrate initiative, act with integrity and be accountable for your actions and decisions.

You will also have:

• Experience of building new relationships and networks that grow income or support.
• Experience of delivering community fundraising activity, such as campaigns, events or local initiatives with the organisational skills to manage multiple priorities and deadlines.
• Strong communication and presentation skills, with the ability to adapt your style for different audiences and share fundraising messages in an engaging way.
• Highly developed interpersonal skills.
• Experience of recruiting, training and supporting volunteers, matching tasks to people’s strengths and helping volunteers feel valued, confident and well supported.
• Strong administrative skills and confidence using systems or customer relationship management databases, with a clear understanding of data protection and confidentiality.

Please note that a driving licence and access to a car will be essential for this role. There will be a regular requirement to transport yourself and materials as well as cash between CHAS sites, community sites and events.

We have ambitions to reach every family in Scotland living with the heart-breaking prognosis that their child is dying, offering care and support to help them make the most of the short time they have together. The skill, passion, agility and creative flair of our Fundraising teams make this possible.

We offer:

Flexible working: Our teams work flexibly and in a hybrid way, with time split between home and on site. CHAS offers flexible and family-friendly working, and we are happy to discuss arrangements that work for you.

Development opportunities: Training opportunities and the chance to work with an award-winning fundraising team.

Professional growth: Work with industry leaders in a high-performing team where you will be encouraged and supported to excel and develop your skills.

Comprehensive benefits: Including generous annual leave and pension, incremental salary progression, access to Blue Light discounts, and health and wellbeing support.

Are you a relationship-focused fundraising professional who wants to make a visible and lasting impact?

We are a dedicated team of seven making a profound difference to adults, families and children living with HIV and Hepatitis C across Edinburgh and Lothians. Through practical support, advocacy, social connection and community engagement, we help people live well and with dignity.

We are now looking for a Fundraising and Engagement Lead to help strengthen our fundraising and community engagement activity and support the long-term sustainability of the organisation. Working closely with the Chief Executive Officer and colleagues across the organisation, you will help identify opportunities, secure funding, build relationships with supporters and partners, and raise awareness of Positive Help's work across the communities we serve.

This is a varied role where no two weeks are quite the same. One day you may be developing a trust application, strengthening a corporate partnership, or analysing fundraising performance and future opportunities. The next, you could be supporting a community fundraising initiative, coordinating volunteers, developing campaign content, or representing Positive Help at local events and meetings.

We are looking for someone who brings ideas, initiative and good judgement, enjoys building authentic relationships, and understands that successful fundraising is about much more than meeting this year's target. Alongside generating income today, you will help develop the partnerships, supporter relationships and opportunities that contribute to Positive Help's sustainability in the years ahead.

As part of a small organisation, your contribution will be visible. You'll have the opportunity to influence how we engage with supporters, communities and partners, while working collaboratively with colleagues to strengthen our impact and reach.

If you're motivated by building meaningful relationships, creating opportunities, and helping a well-respected local charity thrive, we'd love to hear from you.
