About the role

We are an environmental charity that is rich in assets, with over 100 nature reserves including Skomer and Skokholm Islands and 4 visitor centres. We need to increase the delivery of our charitable objectives given the joint nature and climate crises our country is facing but at the moment a lack of unrestricted income is impacting our sustainability and resilience and holding us back from being more impactful.

Recent studies have shown significant opportunities for unrestricted income through fundraising and associated communications. A better balance of unrestricted and grant income would allow us to deliver more work, more consistently and over the longer term to contribute towards our vision and strategy. Given these opportunities we want to recruit a full time person at a senior level with the appropriate skills and experience as a Fundraising and Communications Manager.

You will have significant practical experience related to fundraising and communications within a charity or social enterprise organisation, or with a private organisation that has similar aims to a charity. A relevant qualification to degree or similar level is preferred but emphasis is placed on a good practical track record in relevant and related employment areas, and transferrable skills.
