Looking to take your fundraising and marketing career to another level and use your skills where they really matter?
We have an exciting opportunity for an experienced direct marketing professional to join the Supporter Engagement team within our Fundraising Group. In the team, we love the fact that each day is different – from creating concepts, briefing and copywriting, to project and agency management, data selection, analysis and insight. Within this role, you’ll deliver exceptional experiences for World Vision supporters through the development and delivery of timely, high-value and inspiring multi-channel fundraising campaigns that demonstrate the difference they are making.
This role will give you the opportunity to develop fundraising campaigns that inspire our supporters and invite them to transform the lives of the world’s most vulnerable children. It will be your job to ensure our communications truly reflect World Vision’s mission and Christian ethos to our diverse supporter base.
You’ll have the chance to dig into and understand supporter behaviour, build relevant supporter journeys and capitalise on future activities and campaigns.
You will create compelling copy content, as well as manage relationships with our design, print, and digital agencies, working collaboratively to produce emotive communications that ‘reach’ our supporters and bring to life the change they are making.
As an active Christian, this role offers you the opportunity to integrate your Christian faith and be sensitive to its various expressions across cultures and denominations.
In addition to the salary offered, we offer good benefits including a pension, generous holiday entitlement and free parking. Like many organisations, we’ve adopted hybrid working. The role will have a significant stakeholder management component to it as well as a strong emphasis on networking and relationship building internally, so the postholder would need to be in the Milton Keynes office at least twice a month.
We reserve the right to interview candidates and close the ad ahead of the closing date should a strong candidate be identified.
