Individual Giving Manager (Cash Giving) Full Time Remote

What does it take to inspire thousands of people to support a cause that matters? Could you help turn that support into vital income to end the devastation of dementia?

As our Individual Giving Manager (Cash Giving), you’ll lead fundraising campaigns that help us raise over £12 million a year. You’ll inspire new supporters to donate and find ways to keep existing donors connected to Alzheimer’s Society.

You’ll join our Individual Giving team within Income and Engagement. Working alongside the Senior Individual Giving Manager and another Individual Giving Manager, you’ll help deliver our ambitious Cash Giving Strategy to develop a sector-leading appeals programme.

Do you enjoy bringing creative ideas to life and seeing the difference they can make?

You’ll work with creative and media agencies to deliver campaigns across direct mail, cold print, digital, social media, radio, OOH, press and TV. You’ll use audience insight and campaign results to improve performance and attract new donors.

You’ll also manage budgets, evaluate campaigns and lead a team of Officers, supporting their development and helping them achieve their goals.

Could you use your experience and ideas to help us create a world where dementia no longer devastates lives?

If you’re excited about leading fundraising campaigns, delivering fast-paced projects, and helping a team make a difference, we’d 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.

Our values make sure that our focus is clear for the challenges and opportunities ahead and remind us of what we all stand for.

Our commitment to Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging

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.

Our Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy here along with our internal employee forum and Employee Lived Experience network groups help us promote inclusion and belonging, becoming an engaged and inclusive organisation for all our people.

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. You can read more information via our Website.
