Head of Mass Participation Fundraising – NSPCC  

Salary £48,748 - £54,164 per annum

FTC 12 months (Maternity Cover) 

Location: Hybrid - flexible to home working with regular work from London office  

At the NSPCC, our mission is clear: to end cruelty to children. Within the Income Generation Directorate, our aim is to maximise resources for the NSPCC's mission by raising funds, providing the best possible supporter experience, and inspiring long-term relationships between supporters of all kinds and our cause. We rely on the generosity of supporters across the UK for 90% of our annual income.  

Are you a visionary and experienced leader with a passion for fundraising? Do you have the drive to make a real difference in the lives of children and young people? If so, we want you to join our team as the Head of Mass Participation Fundraising. In this role you will lead the delivery of fundraising from schools, third party events and owned events and products, looking to optimise ROI and to secure and deepen the relationship with thousands of supporters across the UK.  

Our local and national services for children, including Childline, offer compelling reasons for individuals and teams to fundraise for children and young people. The challenges facing children today are significant, and the fundraising of supporters across community settings makes a huge difference to our ability to respond to these challenges. 

The Mass Participation Team at the NSPCC focuses on three audiences:  

• Schools Fundraising 
• Third Party Events 
• Owned Events and Products  

As Head of Mass Participation, you will motivate, guide, challenge and support a brilliant team of fundraisers to engage, support and retain a growing market of participation fundraising. This is a great time to lead our Mass Participation Fundraising team for a twelve month maternity contract.  

Are you a talented mass participation fundraising leader and manager? Do you have:  

• The authenticity and credibility to lead and develop a team ?
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills ? 
• The ability to influence and negotiate; liaise with a diverse range of internal and external stakeholders?
• Exceptional interpersonal skills, enabling great collaboration across the charity, and someone who can prioritise a workload effectively? 
• Excellent organisational skills and great attention to detail?

If this sounds like you, join us! In return you'll become part of a team that cares about the work they do and the people they work with. You'll discover opportunities to grow, along with challenges and a shared purpose that'll bring the best out in you. And you'll get to find your own way to make a difference that means more, and that impacts millions of young lives.  

The role will entail significant cross-department and cross-directorate work, as well as collaboration with peers and colleagues at all levels across the organisation. The role is a hybrid, meaning there is a high degree of flexibility to work from home with an expectation to work from our London office on a weekly basis. There is a requirement to be able to travel to events (often at weekends), team-based meetings and training, so you must reside in the UK, have the correct right to work documents to work in the UK.
