Events Fundraising Coordinator

Do you enjoy keeping projects on track and delivering great experiences? Would you like to play a key role in fundraising events that make a real difference for people affected by dementia? Every person affected by dementia has a unique story. Thanks to the commitment of our supporters, we're able to provide help and hope while working towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives.

We're looking for an Events Fundraising Coordinator to help deliver a range of third party fundraising events. Working closely with the Events Fundraising Manager, you'll play an important role in event delivery, helping to achieve fundraising goals and create outstanding supporter experiences.

This is a varied and rewarding role where you'll help turn plans into successful fundraising events. You'll manage priorities, find solutions and keep projects moving forward while building strong relationships with supporters, colleagues and partners.

• Coordinate the delivery of third party fundraising events.
• Support event delivery, including during our busy autumn season.
• Build and manage relationships with supporters, suppliers, partners and colleagues.
• Maintain accurate event and supporter data to support reporting and decision-making.
• Identify opportunities to improve processes, supporter engagement and event delivery.
• Contribute to achieving fundraising income and participation targets.
• Work with colleagues across the organisation to deliver high-quality events and campaigns.

Are you someone who enjoys organising projects, finding solutions and helping deliver successful outcomes? You may have experience coordinating events, projects, campaigns or processes. Equally, you may have developed relevant skills in another environment. We're particularly interested in people who can:

• Manage competing priorities and deliver against deadlines.
• Organise information and maintain attention to detail.
• Communicate clearly and build effective working relationships.
• Manage tasks effectively and deliver high-quality work.
• Respond positively to challenges and changing priorities.
• Work collaboratively to achieve shared goals and outcomes.
• Use databases, digital tools or social media effectively.
• Deliver excellent customer or supporter experiences.

Fundraising events bring people together around a shared purpose. In this role, you'll have the opportunity to make a tangible impact, develop your skills and contribute to work that matters. You'll join an ambitious and supportive team focused on growing income, expanding participation and delivering meaningful impact for people affected by dementia.

We know that skills and experience can be gained in different ways. If you're excited about this role but don't meet every requirement, we'd still love to hear from you.

Dementia is the UK's biggest killer. One in three people born in the UK today will develop dementia in their lifetime. At Alzheimer's Society, we're the UK's leading dementia charity and the only one to tackle all aspects of dementia by giving help and hope to people living with dementia today and in the future.

We give vital support to people facing the most frightening times of their lives, while also funding groundbreaking research and campaigning to make dementia the priority it should be. Together with our supporters, we're working towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives.

We need to ensure the voices around our table better reflect and understand the communities we exist to serve. We strongly encourage individuals to apply who have a disability, impairment or health condition or individuals who identify as Black, Asian or from another minority ethnic background, as these groups are currently under-represented at Alzheimer's Society.

We want everyone we work with, as a colleague, volunteer, supporter, or someone we support, to feel included and that they belong at Alzheimer's Society.

During your recruitment process we want to make sure that you bring your whole self and can be at your best. We are working hard to ensure our recruitment process is as inclusive as possible, so please do inform us of your experience and anything you think we could do better by completing our candidate survey when you apply.

We are committed to safer recruitment and ensuring the welfare of those we work with, due to the nature of some of our roles, we might need to carry out a Criminal Record Check at the relevant level.

Our employees work hard every day to make a true difference in people's lives. We are proud to support them with a range of benefits, recognition and many options for working agilely, all contributing to a strong work life balance. We also have various learning programmes to support you in your development and help you grow to realise your potential and shape a career with Alzheimer's Society.
