Do you have the strong strategic mindset to take on this leadership role and deliver income, awareness, and profile in line with our UK and regional strategies? Would you like to be part of our ambition to reach and improve the lives of everyone living with cancer and to inspire millions of others to do the same?

What is the role?  
As Area Fundraising Manager for Northern Ireland, you will develop a robust and innovative area action plan in line with regional and UK fundraising strategy. You will build, lead, and develop a highly effective team to deliver on financial and non-financial targets. Building valuable and lasting relationships with supporters, companies, groups, senior volunteers, and the media will be key to your success.

There is substantial cross-organisational working involved as you will look to draw on skills and knowledge available throughout Macmillan and across the UK.

Who are we looking for?  
As our ideal candidate, you will have excellent communication and relationship building skills. Whether your experience has been gained in the charity or corporate sector, it’s essential you can demonstrate an impressive track record of delivering against financial and non-financial targets, driving activity in line with key plans, leading and performance coaching a team and inspiring volunteers and supporters. It’s essential you demonstrate strong networking; team-building; and influencing skills to ensure your team are supported to deliver the greatest value from existing relationships and future opportunities.

As a diverse and forward thinking charity, we have one of the largest and most successful fundraising teams in the sector, but as people live longer and cancer diagnoses increase, it’s essential we further that success and meet challenging fundraising targets to expand our vital work.

What can we offer you?  
In return for your hard work and impressive results, we commit to actively develop you and offer benefits which include private medical insurance, life assurance, pension, childcare vouchers, generous leave, and interest free loans for season tickets and gym membership. 

Macmillan’s Area Fundraising Managers are part of a UK-wide mobile workforce who travels extensively within the defined geographical areas for their role – Northern Ireland and the UK. 

You must have a full UK driving licence at the time of application and the work will also require some unsocial and out of hours working. A car or car allowance is provided. There will be a requirement for flexible working to support evening and weekend events: you will be compensated for this with time off in lieu.

Face to face interviews planned for 4th October 2017 in Belfast and the preliminary stage of recruitment will be a short video question and answer task. You will be sent the details of this shortly after the closing date if you are short-listed to this first stage of our recruitment process.
