Employed by The Fundraising Partnership, you would be a Fundraiser representing and generating donations on behalf of Alzheimer's Society. Your job will be to have wonderful, genuine passionate conversations with the general public to support The Alzheimer's Society with a small regular donation. This can be within major retail stores (depending on where you live) or by talking to local people at their homes knocking door-to-door and asking them to become a regular supporter.

If you get the opportunity to work as a charity fundraiser within major retail stores, you will be pleased to know that due to our partnerships with outstanding companies that source bookings, you can expect to work in major supermarkets and other premium venues, including shows and events.

You may have worked in sales previously, whether that is Avon, Energy Sales, Catalogue Sales, Direct Sales, Door-to-Door Sales, Field Sales, Broadband Sales or as a Brand Ambassador; if this is the case, we would love to hear from you. Or you might be brand new to this and simply looking for a job that gives back to your local community. Either way, our fundraisers come from all kinds of backgrounds including financial services, teaching, management, retail and many more. Most of our best people are just great conversationalists who in day-to-day life end up talking with people when walking the dog or in a queue.

Applicants must have permanent access to a vehicle, driver's licence, appropriate insurance and MOT.

Who are The Fundraising Partnership? We are an ethical employer, who are committed to setting new standards and changing the face of face-to-face fundraising. We pride ourselves on putting the charity and their donors first and we realise that our company only succeeds when our fundraisers succeed. As such we respect, value and care for our employees. We only look to recruit quality, long term donors when the charity benefits and as a by-product, we benefit. We are proud of our fundraisers.

It is a salaried role, enhanced by a commission with full-time and part-time options. You will need to have a car but will typically be working within 30 minutes of your home, and we will pay you for your travel.

Dementia is the biggest health and social challenge of our time. There are currently estimated to be 900,000 people in the UK with dementia. Alzheimer's Society and the help of their supporters are changing that. Alzheimer's Society give vital support to those who need it most, hold decision-makers to account, and fund groundbreaking research to transform the future for everyone living with dementia.

A typical fundraiser will raise more than £400,000 for the charity every year that they work for. So you would be doing a job where after 5 years of work, through your professionalism, integrity, and hard work you could raise more than £2 million for charities that deal, quite literally, in matters of life and death.

This role can offer you genuine work-life balance:

• When established in the role you can be flexible with the hours you work
• Comprehensive remote home study training, followed by ongoing support when in the role
• Guaranteed hourly rate with bonus for exceeding targets
• 20 days holiday with an extra day off on your birthday
• Time off over Christmas
• Daily mileage allowance
• Autonomy to manage your own working day, yet support when you need it.
