Vacancy: Global Fundraising Advisor

Global Fundraising Advisor,London

London | £41,124 per annum
At Amnesty International we believe absolutely that one person can make a difference. The work carried out by our Global Fundraising Advisor is a perfect example. As a result of their support, our followers in Portugal have increased twelve-fold. That’s a huge impact. And one you’ll strive to match.

About the role
Part of our International Secretariat, the Fundraising Investment Fund allocates resources to a portfolio of key countries with the goal of increasing our global fundraising capacity. As the Global Fundraising Advisor,
you’ll advise on a range of projects and work closely with in-country teams to make sure that growth is delivered. On a day-to-day basis that means analysing figures, monitoring results and putting together forecasts, reports and budgets. Most importantly, it means supporting project staff via Skype, email and phone. However, while keeping in touch is of paramount importance, we don’t expect you to do everything remotely. Travelling to locations as diverse as Europe and Latin America, you’ll deliver training and encourage the skill sharing that will result in successfully delivered fundraising strategies across the board.

About you
Analytical, logical and numerate, you’ll be an experienced fundraiser with a solid background of developing and monitoring long-term fundraising plans. And whether you honed your ability to provide expert strategic and technical advice in a commercial setting or at another NGO, you’ll have what it takes to realise growth plans on an international scale. A solid marketing sense and a talent for building relationships with geographically diverse teams are therefore essential. As are well-developed communication skills and a proven ability to coach, support and motivate others.

About us
Our aim is simple: an end to human rights abuses. Independent, international and influential, we campaign for justice, fairness, freedom and truth wherever they’re denied. Already our network of almost three million members and supporters is making a difference in 150 countries. And whether we’re applying pressure through powerful research or direct lobbying, mass demonstrations or online campaigning, we’re all inspired by hope for a better world. One where human rights are respected and protected by everyone, everywhere.
