Help people connect with the difference their support makes

At St Vincent’s Hospice, every donation helps us provide specialist palliative and end of life care to local patients and families.

We are recruiting an Individual Giving Manager as part of a coordinated recruitment campaign across our income generation team. Following a review of how responsibilities are organised, we have shaped complementary roles with a clear focus on building relationships, delivering effective fundraising and providing excellent supporter care.

About The Role

You will lead our individual giving portfolio, covering donations and appeals, regular giving, in-memory fundraising, legacies and our relationship with the external lottery provider.

Reporting to the CEO, you will develop engaging campaigns and supporter journeys that welcome new donors, retain existing supporters and build sustainable income.

Working with fundraising, communications, finance and clinical colleagues, you will explain the impact of support clearly and sensitively. You will also use data and feedback to understand what works and improve future activity.

Compassion is central to this role, particularly when communicating with bereaved supporters or people considering a gift in their Will.

What You Will Bring

You may have fundraising experience, or bring strong skills from communications, marketing, campaign delivery, supporter engagement or a related role.

We Are Looking For Someone Who Can

• Plan and deliver engaging campaigns and communications.
• Write clearly, tell compelling stories and explain the impact of support.
• Build positive relationships with a range of people.
• Use information and feedback to improve results.
• Organise competing priorities and take responsibility for agreed outcomes.
• Communicate with sensitivity, discretion and compassion.

You do not need experience across individual giving, in-memory fundraising, legacies and lottery to apply. We welcome relevant transferable skills, curiosity and a willingness to learn.

Working with us

We offer a supportive working environment, generous annual leave, a pension scheme, professional development, employee wellbeing support and free onsite parking.

Flexible and hybrid working arrangements are available, with occasional evening and weekend work where required.

The Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 provides for many people who have been convicted of certain criminal offences the opportunity to have no need to refer to these convictions or the circumstances relating to them in the course of their daily lives. Certain convictions can, therefore, be regarded as spent after the lapse of a period of years under the terms of the ACT. The employment for which you are applying is excluded in the provisions of the Act unless otherwise stated in the job description. Unless stated, you are required not to withhold information about convictions which for other purposes are "spent" under the provisions of the Act. This means that all previous convictions must be declared. If you are offered employment, any failure to disclose such convictions could result in dismissal or disciplinary action. Any information given, however, will be completely confidential and will be considered only in relation to the post for which this application form refers.

No applicant shall be unfairly discriminated against on account of their age, cultural/religion/political belief, disability, ethnicity, gender, race, relationship status, sexual orientation, and/or Trade Union membership/stewardship.

This form will ask you to provide personal details which ensure we comply with the Equal Opportunities Act 2010. The information you provide is confidential and will not be used in the selection process.
