We are looking for a Fundraising Manager to lead on our fundraising by developing and implementing a strategy to secure core funding, as well as working with other managers to secure project funding. You will need to be innovative and determined as well as being an excellent communicator. This is a new role and it will really suit someone who is a confident self-starter with an eye for detail.

Emmaus Bristol is a fabulous place to work and you leave every day with the satisfaction that your hard work has helped people out of homelessness. Emmaus is different to other homeless charities in that staff work alongside formerly homeless residents, known within Emmaus as Companions. So as well as working as part of our employee team, you’d also work alongside Companions and other volunteers.

We are a small charity, and your ability to help us grow our income will make an enormous difference to our beneficiaries and support us in achieving our five-year plan. We want someone in the role who is fired up by our mission and able to inspire this in our donors.

If you’d be excited by presenting to a potential donor, or telling our story in written words through a detailed bid application, and are aware of trends in an evolving funding landscape, then this is the role for you!

This is a flexible position, and we are pleased to be able to offer it on either a full or part-time basis. Given the varied nature of the role, you will be able to work from home as well as in our office (based in Bristol BS2), and get out and about building relationships on our behalf.

Your enthusiasm and personality are as important to us as direct fundraising experience, so if your skills have been gained in a different sector, we will still welcome your application if you have relevant transferable skills. The key requirements are that you have experience of securing contracts or funding, can quickly build relationships with others, and are highly numerate and literate.
