Wildlife Fundraiser in Morpeth, North East

Make a difference this summer! Are you passionate about nature and confident talking to people? Looking for a rewarding seasonal role where every day feels different? Join the Fundraising Team in the North East area, where you'll help inspire public support for nature. This could be an ideal opportunity for students or those seeking recurring seasonal work. Please apply only if you live within 10 miles of the desired area.

Each day you can expect to be travelling to venues and events around Newcastle and surrounding towns along the Northumberland coast.

This isn’t a desk job - it’s all about people. Each day, you’ll:

• Travel to local venues using a company van (fuel and parking covered; average travel time up to one hour each way).
• Set up engaging and eye-catching fundraising stands.
• Chat with the public about nature and the mission.
• Inspire people to support through regular giving.

You’ll spend your days outdoors, meeting new people, and making a tangible impact for wildlife. It takes confidence and resilience - but it’s incredibly rewarding.

• Full training provided - no wildlife knowledge required.
• Stable salary (not commission-based).
• Company van for business use (all fuel and expenses covered).
• 34 days annual leave (including bank holidays, pro rata).
• Flexible working options - 3, 4 or 5 days per week.
• Supportive, inclusive team culture.
• Potential opportunity to return each summer.

• Passion for people and conservation.
• Confidence engaging with members of the public.
• Resilience and positivity when faced with challenges.
• Comfortable working outdoors and independently.
• A full UK driving licence.
• Willingness to travel on average up to one hour each way from home.
• Fundraising, sales or customer service experience (desirable).
• Availability to work 3 out of 4 weekends per month.

Fixed-term, until early September 2026 with the potential to return each year. Start date: February/March 2026. Induction and training provided at HQ in Sandy, Bedfordshire (travel and accommodation covered). Active fundraising season runs April to September. We may close early if sufficient applications are received.
