Senior Fundraiser – Supporting Your Community & Leading in the Field

At Local Hospice Lottery, our Senior Fundraisers play a vital role in raising essential funds for local hospices while also supporting and guiding our wider fundraising team in the field.

This is a people-focused, face-to-face role where you’ll not only make a real difference every day, but also help drive team performance and maintain high standards out in the community.

While experience in fundraising is beneficial, what matters most is your attitude, leadership potential, and willingness to get involved. Full training is provided.

What the Role Involves

Fundraising Responsibilities

• Talking to members of the public in local communities
• Explaining how the Local Hospice Lottery supports nearby hospices
• Signing up new supporters in a friendly and professional way
• Working independently in the field, managing your own day
• Representing a trusted not-for-profit organisation
• Fundraising door-to-door and, where available, at pre-arranged private sites

Senior / Field Support (FR) Responsibilities

• Supporting fundraisers in the field through coaching and on-the-job guidance
• Leading by example to drive performance, quality, and professionalism
• Helping onboard and support new starters
• Acting as a link between field teams and management
• Monitoring standards, supporter experience, and compliance in the field
• Contributing to a positive, motivated and high-performing team culture

What We’re Looking For

Our Fundraisers describe themselves as friendly, resilient and driven, and as a Senior Fundraiser, you’ll bring those qualities along with a supportive and proactive approach.

You’ll be a great fit if you are:

• Confident and engaging when speaking face-to-face with the public
• Resilient and tenacious in a target-driven environment
• Motivated, with an interest in maximising earnings through bonuses
• Organised and reliable, comfortable working independently
• A natural role model who can support and encourage others
• Positive, approachable, and a good communicator
• Passionate about supporting local charities and hospices

Experience in fundraising or field-based roles is beneficial but not essential — full training and ongoing support are provided.

• £29'725.35 FTE basic salary
• Uncapped monthly bonus 
• Additional earning potential linked to supporting team performance
• Paid travel time to and from the field
