When there is an outbreak of war or violence, women suffer most – they experience trauma, sexual violence and the death of loved ones. After the conflict is over, the world’s attention moves on, but these same women are left to rebuild their families and communities. Women for Women International supports women who live in some of the world’s most dangerous places. Women enroll on our year-long training programme, where they learn how to earn and save money, improve their family’s health and make their voices heard at home and in their community. Since 1993, we’ve helped more than 479,000 women survivors of war in Afghanistan, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Democratic Republic of Congo, Kosovo, Iraq, Nigeria, Rwanda and South Sudan. With over 40 brutal armed conflicts across the globe, there’s never been a greater need for the work of Women for Women International to support women survivors of war.
Women for Women International – UK (WfWI-UK) was established in 2006. Due to the successful delivery of our strategic plan including a step change in income and setting up Women for Women International-DE, we are embarking on the next stage of growth. As part of a global organisation we are determined to provide more women survivors of war with the tools they need to move from victim, to survivor, to active citizen, wherever they are and whenever they need us.
Our current annual income at WfWI-UK is £5m, with £2m of that being from a wide range of public supporters and donors including regular givers who ‘Sponsor a Sister’ through our programme, community fundraisers who run marathons, set up student groups, and join our sisterhood, and individual donors at all levels including major donors. A key income generating activity is Cause-Related Marketing partnerships, and our Special Events programme where we continue to develop and execute innovative event concepts that exceed the expectations of participants and buck sector trends for Return on Investment. An important part of our fundraising success has been due to our marketing and communications strategy including the development and execution of the #SheInspiresMe campaign which has generated a wealth of income and awareness raising opportunities, and our latest International Women’s Day campaign, Message to My Sister. As part of our strategy for the next stage of our development we are seeking a Director of Fundraising and Marketing to lead the team in the busy and dynamic London office. The role will lead on delivering these key areas in our Business Plan, taking personal responsibility for the development of our Major Donor programme, and act as Line Manager to 2 successful function leads – Corporate and Community Fundraising and Special Events – to inspire and support them to take their areas to the next level.
This role and the team that you will lead has responsibility for our Individual Giving activity, Database, Supporter Care, Corporate partnerships (non-Grant), Community Fundraising, Events, and Major Donors. The main focus of your income target is Unrestricted, but you will work closely with the Director of Programme Funding and Partnerships to make sure that we meet our income targets from all sources and maximise all opportunities and equally importantly develop new ones.
The role will suit someone who is an experienced senior fundraising and marketing professional and an inspiring and motivating manager and leader. You will have a broad range of experience across multiple fundraising streams and be an expert in at least 3 of the areas that you will be leading – 1) Major Donors, 2) Events and one other. You will be creative, entrepreneurial and excellent at identifying, creating and delivering on opportunities. You will be a first-class multi-tasker and project manager, with exceptional organisational skills. You will be an excellent communicator, comfortable in all media and have experience of making presentations and pitches to secure partnerships. Your relationship building will be second to none, instilling confidence in those around you to deliver objectives. Previous experience in working in a marketing/fundraising environment in the charity/ not-for-profit sector is desirable but not essential, an ability to communicate your passion and inspire others is a must.
WfWI-UK is an equal opportunities employer and we positively welcome applications from all suitably qualified persons regardless of their religious beliefs or political opinions, sex, marital or family status, ethnicity, sexual orientation, age or disability status. All candidates must have the right to work in the UK.
