Role

Do you want to create a safer, brighter future for all children in Scotland?

Children First, Scotland’s national children’s charity, is seeking to appoint an Individual Giving Manager. By joining our team, you will help us stand up for children, keep them safe and support them to recover from trauma and abuse through our national and local services.

You will lead Children First’s individual giving fundraising strategy and manage the team to meet ambitious annual targets. Plan, develop and implement a programme of individual giving campaigns, including legacies, payroll giving, in-memory and innovative giving to grow and maximise income and play a key role in developing donor journeys for our existing and new supporters, ensuring donors feel valued and understand the impact they are making.

The successful candidate will be an experienced individual giving fundraiser with a proven track record and at least two years’ experience in a similar role.

As well as a rewarding career and development opportunities, we offer 40 days annual leave per year, a contributory pension scheme, generous maternity/adoption and paternity leave, flexible working opportunities and wellbeing support.

Living our values, you will make a direct impact on the lives of children across Scotland. With love, we put children first. With purpose, we transform children’s lives together. With strength, we do whatever it takes to protect Scotland’s children.

We believe all children should have hopes, dreams and opportunities. But for many, they don’t exist. This has to stop. We must put children first. Do you have what it takes to join our team and help us protect children and keep them safe? We would love to hear from you.
