Frome Town Council is an ambitious and innovative council with a strategy and work programme to match. We have an ethos of coordination and enabling, recognising the importance of a place-based approach to harness the assets of individuals and organisations in Frome. So that the town’s residents can benefit from a full range of local opportunities and services, we are looking to diversify our income streams and create a sustainable approach to fundraising.

You’ll identify and complete grant and trust funding applications for projects ranging from small local initiatives to large scale capital and revenue projects – with a focus on resilience, regeneration, community development, the arts, tourism, children’s services, play, parks and open spaces.

The ideal fundraiser will have a proven track record of fundraising and understand the local landscape. They will be familiar with working with a range of partners, handling and extrapolating data to build a case for support and have a detailed knowledge of national, regional and local grant making trusts and organisations.

If you are skilled in fundraising in one particular field or are interested in working with us across all of our priority areas over the next six months please submit a CV and budgeted proposal to khellard@frometowncouncil.gov.uk by 9am on Monday 6th December.
