Individual Giving Manager

35 hours per week

Yorkshire Wildlife Trust is one of the UK’s fastest growing nature conservation organisations
and seeks to appoint an Individual Giving Manager.

Are you a passionate and ambitious fundraiser looking to make a positive impact for wildlife in
Yorkshire? Yorkshire Wildlife Trust is seeking an Individual Giving Manager to grow our
individual giving programme. Sitting within the fundraising team you will lead on appeals,
individual giving, donor stewardship events and the development of the existing mid-level and
major donor programme. In this role you will collaborate closely with colleagues across the
county to maximise income generation and share best practise.

The focus of the role is to generate fundraised income from individual donors including HNWI’s.
You will develop and implement a portfolio of inspiring campaigns and appeals that aim to
connect with our existing supporters, as well driving the acquisition of new supporters,
particularly through regular giving. You will also grow our fundraising revenue, building a
robust major donor prospect portfolio, forging meaningful connections with our existing and new
donors and nurturing long term relationships. As a member of the fundraising team, you will
collaborate with fellow fundraisers and the Head of Fundraising to shape, refine, and execute
our fundraising strategy.

You will have a good understanding and knowledge of growing individual income streams, combined
with a natural ability to collaborate across teams and enjoy creating new and exciting
fundraising appeals and campaigns. Most importantly you must have a passion for fundraising and
the ambition to grow income and increase donor recruitment and retention. This is a brilliant
role for someone looking to further their experience in individual giving and work as a senior
member of the fundraising team.
