We’re looking for people with a great sales personality, a positive attitude and a love of smashing targets

Field Sales Executive – Charity Fundraiser

Location: Wakefield | Salary: Up to £25K (£45K+ OTE)

Job Description

The Sales fundraisers are employed by the organisation on permanent contracts, fulltime or part-time and enjoy a base rate, meaning you’ll always have a minimum income with plenty of potential to earn more. This role really does make a difference to people’s lives as well as yours.

You’ll be the public face of the charity partners with a mission to interact with the public and get their support in the form of regular monthly direct debit donations or lottery sign ups.

Fundraising takes place at a vast array of shows, events, superstores and smaller stores, town centres, shopping centres and even train stations.  These venues are pre-booked for you by the charity’s in-house venues team, whose focus is to give you the very best chance of securing as many donors as possible.

The working day itself will vary according to the venues you work and you should aim to be there when footfall is at its maximum. That means you’ll need to be flexible as to what hours you work, the evening being a particularly good time to find potential donors.

Charity-branded clothing and equipment (stands, pull-ups, tables, gazebos etc) are provided as well as an electric tablet to sign up donors.

Life as a fundraiser is an exciting one, full of challenges and even more rewards. No two days are the same and you’ll meet and connect with some of the best kinds of people.

If you’re confident, optimistic, resilient and love talking to people, then this could be what you are looking for!!

We are working with one of the UK ‘s largest award-winning charity fundraising agency with 30 years’ experience, that delivers fundraising and awareness campaigns for some of the UK’s most well-known charities such as Dogs Trust, Guide Dogs and Breast Cancer Now.

Their passion for fundraising continues to grow and due to their fundraising sales partners, they raise over £40m for our charity partners each year.
