Are you passionate about making a real difference in the world? Do you want to leverage your skills to combat homelessness for children and young people? Then we have the perfect opportunity for you.

We are looking to recruit a Trusts & Foundations Fundraiser to maximize the income the Cardinal Hume Centre receives from trusts and foundations. This is an exciting role in our Fundraising team that will contribute to the delivery of the six-figure trust income stream budget (£585k for 2025/26) through rigorous pipeline management, maintain excellent donor relations through timely reporting and assist with trust engagement and fundraising activities. You will also manage the small trust pipeline – proactively seeking out new trust funding opportunities; submitting high quality applications on time; meeting reporting requirements; contributing to monthly management information and quarterly reforecasting.

Please refer to the job description on our website for further information.

In your cv and cover letter, please outline how you meet the requirements of the role and why you would like to work for us. You must account for any gaps in your employment history.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. We require job applicants, staff and volunteers to complete a criminal records self-declaration. This role requires an enhanced DBS check plus children’s barred list. It is an offence to apply for the role if the applicant is barred from engaging in regulated activity.  

Applicants must have the right to work in the UK. We are unable to sponsor visas.
