Fundraising Coordinator
Ref: #00685
Our branch has grown and we need a Fundraising Coordinator who will plan and carry out fundraising events and campaigns. This will involve engaging with local businesses and potential sponsors to secure financial or in-kind support as well as developing and promoting fundraising activities within the community and through social media. You will also work with the Grants Lead (in the National Office) to identify local grants and funding opportunities. We are fortunate to already have some wonderful donors and sponsors, so part of your role will be maintaining those relationships and ensuring appropriate acknowledgments and follow-ups. You will be backed up by a small, collaborative leadership team who will support you in your role.
Chair Person or Co- Chair
Ref: #00683
The chairperson of our Organisation plays a vital leadership role, guiding the organisation's activities, facilitating meetings, and ensuring effective governance. They are responsible for strategic planning, managing relationships, and overseeing the organisation's overall performance. The chairperson also acts as a link between the board, members, and the wider community. Each month the chairperson sets the meeting agenda, and ensures that the organisation is working towards its goals and objectives. They plan, prepare, and facilitate meetings, ensuring they are conducted effectively, efficiently, and in accordance with the organisation's constitution.
