With hundreds of DIY supporters choosing to fundraise for the NSPCC each year, this is an exciting opportunity to shape the DIY fundraising programme, to review and streamline the user experience across supporters fundraising at home, in the workplace or at school.

The Senior Fundraiser will also project manage the a schools fundraising product, working closely with the Schools Fundraising Manager to deliver a product out to market, managing all aspects of its lifecycle from planning, delivery, evaluation and innovation.

This role plays a key part in generating income to support the NSPCC's mission. You'll contribute by:

  • Maximising recruitment of new and existing supporters into the organisation
  • Delivering an exceptional supporter experience to drive fundraising income, and inspiring long-term engagement and retention
  • Using data-led insights to improve campaign performance across key metrics such as remittance rate and average donation

We have a number of employees at the NSPCC who are regrettably at risk of redundancy, following a significant restructure. In keeping with our values and our policies, if any of these individuals apply for a role and meet the minimum essential criteria, they will be given priority consideration. We hope that you understand our position on this and that this will not discourage you from applying. We cannot predict who, internally, will apply for a role, or whether they will meet the minimum essential criteria. Where no at risk candidates meet the minimum essential criteria, all applications will be considered as normal.

As an organisation, we are committed to creating and fostering a culture that promotes safeguarding and the welfare of all children and adults at risk. Our safer recruitment practices support this by ensuring that there is a consistent and thorough process of obtaining, collating, analysing and evaluating information from and about candidates to ensure that all persons appointed are suitable to work with our children and adults.

At the NSPCC we are on a journey to becoming a trauma-informed organisation for the children, young people and families that we work with, as well as our staff and volunteers. To be trauma-informed is one of the guiding principles that shape and guide our 2021-2031 Strategy. This means understanding the nature of adversity, trauma, and resilience so that we can work towards reducing and preventing further harm and promoting recovery and healing. Coming to work at the NSPCC will provide the opportunity for you to join us in our commitment to becoming a trauma-informed organisation.

NSPCC is that the NSPCC highly embraces,

encourages and promotes diversity and

inclusiveness of staff.
