About the role
This is an exciting opportunity to join a small, yet dynamic team in Islington, London. Islington Giving is a coalition of local people and organisations, working together to raise funds, to support communities and projects, and to connect each other in Islington. We know that when we work together, we can create positive social impact.
In the fundraising and communications team, we are migrating to Salesforce later this year, a website refresh is underway, and we have recently secured some exciting new funding partnerships. Through our programmes, we are building on our resident-led approach, exploring even more ways to share power with our local community. As a result, the next few years promise to be pivotal in taking Islington Giving and the place-based giving movement even further.
This role is varied and interesting, and we are keen to receive applications from individuals with different levels of experience. This will mean the role can be shaped by the right candidate. There are lots of opportunities to test, learn and innovate at Cripplegate Foundation and Islington Giving.
Islington Giving’s growing fundraising programme involves inspiring the local community to support local projects. We engage trusts, foundations, local businesses, and residents. As a result, we have raised over £9m since 2010. We raised and distributed over £1.1m in 2020 alone, including through our Islington Giving Crisis Fund during the Covid-19 pandemic.
We are seeking an individual with fundraising and communications experience (or similar roles) to create engaging stories, inspire new donors and engage existing supporters. So, if you...
- have experience in fundraising and communications (or similar roles),
- thrive in small teams where you can work with colleagues on a variety of projects and campaigns,
- and are you passionate about addressing issues around poverty and inequality
You might be just the person we are looking for to join our small and ambitious team.
