In joining Fauna & Flora's Trusts & Foundations team, you will be playing an important role in supporting international environmental conservation efforts, alongside an amazing global network of colleagues, partner organisations and donors.
The Trusts & Foundations Manager will work in the Institutional Funding department, to manage and develop an existing portfolio of donors that fund the organisation's work.
Our success to date is far reaching with donors from all corners of the world supporting Fauna & Flora to deliver over 130 projects in more than 40 countries. To build on this, we are seeking an experienced fundraiser, with a proven track record in fundraising from trusts and foundations and/or government bodies, or in a comparable field. The role will suit someone with external facing experience to influence funder giving, and you will use your excellent relationship management skills to strengthen links with funders and cultivate opportunities for growth. Experience in securing funds from the USA and/or mainland Europe is desirable.
A key part of the role is also working with Fauna & Flora's conservation programme teams to build the fundraising pitch and turn their visions into accurate and compelling proposals and reports - you will have excellent attention to detail when it comes to writing and reviewing documents.
Success in this role is only possible through good working relationships and a pro-active approach. Interpersonal and time-management skills are critical to enabling you to build strong internal working relationships, as you bring information together to meet deadlines.
Our ideal candidate will also have a passion for conservation and the environment, and clearly demonstrate their commitment to Fauna & Flora's values.
